I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 190

Did Caden suspect something was going on when he heard that Old Master Shaw fainted from a brain hemorrhage?

Naturally, he suspected initially.

But when he remembered Old Master Shaw had a medical history, his fainting from the brain hemorrhage seem plausible.

“Faster.”

The man seated behind hurried the driver.

Ladd’s forehead started to sweat as he concentrated fully on driving the car.

Screech.

“Boss, we’re here.”

As soon as Ladd said the man behind had already left the car.

Caden read a message sent by Old Master Shaw’s old butler and quicken his footsteps and changed directions towards the emergency ward.

“Master, you’re finally here.” A large group of people was at the entrance of the emergency ward.

Caden took a glance at the crowd and his gaze stopped at the old butler, “How is grandpa’s condition?”

This old butler was the same as the Venus family where they served the Shaw family for generations. It was unknown why he was chosen to remain with Old Master Shaw while Sam was assigned to Caden.

“He is still undergoing treatment.” He said as his eyes looked worried, but when he drooped his head, he started to think... he, as the Old Master Shaw’s personal butler knew fully well what was the Old Master Shaw’s condition.

He also knew clearly why Old Master Shaw did this.

Before Old Master Shaw ‘fainted’, he instructed him to observe master’s state when he arrived before saying anything.

...

It was a scene at the hospital and a different scene at the manor where Caden was living.

A sneaky figure walked out of the Shaw family manor garden and out of the main door. He then walked along the exterior walls and in the blink of an eye, the person disappeared into the woods.

Behind a tree.

The silver-haired old man stretched out his hand to a stranger, “Where’s the thing?”

His attitude and mood weren’t pleasant.

The man was upset, “Old Master Shaw instructed, the thing was prepared by him. Don’t expose yourself, and... don’t be in a hurry to do anything. Keep your moves low profile and don’t let anyone suspect. Wait for Old Master Shaw’s next instructions.”

They both knew who he referred to when he said ‘anyone suspect.”

The silver-haired man raised his eyebrow and looked at the brown-colored document folder and then snatched it over and said angrily, “Send the message to Old Master Shaw that I will do this cleanly.”

He took it over and hid it in his overcoat. The old man turned and walked back into the manor.

There was one thing that he didn’t report to Old Master Shaw: Today was his last day at the Shaw family manor!

The old man’s wrinkled face was emotionless and cold like a block of aged wood. A cold wave flashed by his eyes... today was his last day at that place!

To be exact, he could only stay there until Master came back that day. That wasn’t a lot of time.

As to Old Master Shaw’s warning...

Instead of entering the main door, he went first to the basement to make a call, “Old Master Shaw gave new instructions, immediately release the information about those people and then let your precious daughter meet with those people.”

After saying, he emotionlessly ended the call and smirked.

He sneaked to the upper floor and took out a duplicate key to the study and opened the door. He then walked gently into the study.

He immediately noticed the brown document folder on the table.
