I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 65

Caden drove down the road at breakneck speed, and Kirk even felt that his boss's driving speed was too fast as if he was going crazy.

They then stopped at Royal Club.

"Boss…" Just as Kirk called his Boss, his Boss walked past him in a flash. He strode into the lobby of Royal Club, and went straight to the elevator without stopping all the way.

Kirk immediately caught up with his Boss.

Caden looked particularly indifferent, his slender legs moved toward Gloria's office at a brisk pace. When the door appeared in his line of sight, he hurriedly walked toward it, and then pushed the door heavily without knocking.

The moment Gloria raised her head, she saw Caden walk toward the sofa wrathfully.

"President Shaw, Grace isn't awake yet." Gloria saw Caden who was in a fit of anger, she immediately reminded him. Her words seemed to imply, "President Shaw, if you have anything to tell Grace, please wait for her to wake up, she is a patient now."

Caden did not give Gloria a glance and at exactly this moment, Kirk came over.

Caden stooped down and carried the woman who was still receiving intravenous drip on the sofa in his arms. When he gave Kirk a look, Kirk immediately stepped forward and unhung the saline bag from the drip stand beside the sofa.

"President Shaw, where are you taking Grace!" Gloria had a bad feeling about it. Without much consideration, she immediately ran forward and blocked the door before Caden stepped out of the office. She stretched out her arms to block Caden's way.

The man in front of her was tall, well-proportioned and had a ramrod posture. At this moment, his handsome face which like the workmanship of god was full of indifference. When Caden was blocked by Gloria, he looked down at Gloria.

Gloria's heart was agitated, not to mention how nervous she was right now. Caden's stare especially made her blood run cold. "President Shaw…" she said, giving Grace a glance, and she made a tough decision and continued to say, "President Shaw, Grace isn't awake yet, where are you taking her?"

In fact, there was something wrong with Caden's expression since he walked in just now.

At the thought of the hardship suffered by Grace today… Gloria admitted that she should stop meddling with things that did not concern her, but… but if she didn't even care about Grace, then this fool really could only live in the darkness and couldn't get out of it!

"President Shaw, you can't take her away now."

Gloria bit the bullet and said. Only the Lord knew that the shirt on her back had already been wet at this moment.

"Gloria, get out of the way now. Boss won't care about what you just did," suddenly, Kirk said to Gloria with a slight movement in his eyes.

Gloria knew that Kirk was taking the heat off of her, but…She clenched her fists and continued to say, "Grace's body…"

"Gloria, I only say it once." Caden casted a glacial stare to Gloria. His thin lips moved slightly, warned her indifferently, "Get out of my way."

He was in a bad mood now. If Gloria wanted to die, he was glad to help her realize her wish.

Gloria, I only say it once, get out of the way… When Gloria saw Caden's frosty look, her heart trembled and the cold sweat beaded on her forehead. Looking toward Grace, the time at this moment went by especially slowly, at least Gloria thought so.

Eventually, she lowered her head and stepped aside without a word…"I'm sorry, Grace".

She was also afraid of Caden. She had witnessed his ability, scheme, wit and cruelty personally.

Caden would not tolerate a disobedient subordinate.

Caden had taken Grace away, leaving Gloria alone, and she stood in situ quietly without moving.

After a long time, she only raised her head and whispered into the air, "Grace, I still love myself more, sorry."

She felt sorry for Grace because from Grace, she saw that she had been as foolish as Grace in the old days. That was a memory that she refused to recall.

However, compared to feeling sorry for Grace… Gloria knew that she had inherited selfishness of a human being, which she loved herself more.

Gloria did nothing wrong. Moreover, from Gloria's standpoint, even if she knew exactly her boss's personality and style, she still stepped forward to block her Boss's way and plead for Grace today…Gloria had already tried hard indeed.

……

The 28th floor of Royal Club was not Caden's home, instead, here was just a place for him to rest occasionally.

Kirk had been speechless all the way, like a shadow, following his boss who was radiating anger with a saline bag in his hand.

Ding!

Kirk followed Caden out of the elevator, heading toward the bedroom on the 28th floor.

There was no temporary dripper holder for the saline bag. After Caden placed Grace on the bed, he took the clothes hanger at the doorway and took over the saline bag from Kirk without saying a word. While hanging the saline bag on the clothes hanger, he said indifferently, "You can leave now."

"...Bo" at first, Kirk wanted to say something, but as soon as he uttered his voice, his voice came to an abrupt end. After a while of thinking and hesitation, he finally said, "Yes, Boss."

Without looking at the woman on the bed, Caden walked toward the French window and sat down on the sofa by the window.

At this point, he really wanted to wake up Grace and asked her what was going on with her and Franklin.

After all, he fought down the impulse.

He just sat on the calfskin single-seat sofa by the window, with his elbow propped on the armrest of the sofa. He supported his head with one hand and quietly looked at the direction of the bed.

There was a sudden thunderstorm outside.

The lightning accompanied by the peals of thunder.

With the thunderous rumbling, Grace was lying on the bed so quietly that she was more like a corpse without a soul.

If there was no breath left in her body; if her chest was not lifted up and down regularly now, she…really looked like a corpse, lying quietly on the bed.

In the bedroom, the ceiling light was not turned on, only the wall lamp at the bedside was turned on, which could clearly illuminate whether there was any portion in the saline bag. However, the wall lamp could not function as the ceiling lights, nor could it light up the corner at the French window.

The corner at the French window was dim, and a bolt of lightning crackled through the sky outside the French window behind Caden. The blue gleam of the lightning suddenly illuminated the French window. The instant the room was lit up, his handsome face looked even colder under the blue light.

"Ouch..." Grace suddenly moaned in pain, but Caden sat motionless on the sofa.

"Hiss…" Her voice sounded even more painful.

Caden gritted his teeth, but still did not move.

"Uh…whoo…" Her voice was getting more and more painful. Lying on the bed, she even gradually curled up and hugged herself.

All of a sudden!

He moved!

Caden stood up suddenly while his eyes were icy with unknown emotions hidden in them. Step by step, he walked toward the bed.

He stretched out his arms slowly and moved his palm toward her face.

In an instant!

He stretched out his five fingers, seizing her throat!

"If one day there is someone in the world who can disturb my emotions," Caden had told Humbert personally when he was still young, "I will kill her myself."
