I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 192

"Does Mr. Shaw agree?" Mr. Garcia knew the master of this family was the man he should be loyal to.

Grace took her mobile phone out of her bag, dialed the phone, and whispered to Mr. Garcia with a smile, "I’ll ask for his permission right away."

When the phone was connected, she said something to the person on the other side of the phone. She said that she wanted to go back to the James family, and offered, "If you’re worried about me, just let Gloria accompany me."

Although Mr. Garcia stood aside respectfully, he kept an eye on Grace all the time.

Grace hung up the call and showed her cell phone to Mr. Garcia. The screen of the mobile phone showed Caden’s name, "Mr. Garcia, Mr. Shaw agreed. And he let Gloria to accompany me. I’ll call Gloria."

Suddenly, she exclaimed, "My clothes got dirty in the morning. I have to go upstairs and change into new clothes.” Then she turned and went upstairs.

As she walked, she paid attention to Mr. Garcia.

She didn’t know about the new housekeeper. She didn’t know if the housekeeper would be cheated by her. Actually, she didn’t call Caden just now.

She just casually looked for a phone number and marked it "Caden", which was a bit like a telephone fraud.

Those people just took advantage of her.

But no one ever asked her what she wanted.

She went into the bedroom, picked simple clothes to wear, and gave Gloria a call, "Gloria, now there is a chance which can help to rehabilitate me. Will you help me?"

As soon as Gloria got on the phone, she heard Grace’s direct question.

She was a little shocked, and then her expression softened and there was tenderness in her eyes, "I will."

There were no too many words, but just two words made Grace feel warm.

Grace clenched her cell phone, hesitating. Gloria didn’t ask her anything… But soon, she became determined.

She changed into her clothes and went downstairs. She observed Mr. Garcia’s expression. She found that Mr. Garcia did not doubt her, and she was a little relieved.

In fact, as long as Mr. Garcia gave Caden a call in person, her lie would be exposed.

But she succeeded. Mr. Garcia certainly didn’t expect that she would cheat him in such a way.

She was glad that she had not done anything that would arouse the suspicion of Mr. Garcia, and she couldn’t help cheering. Soon, she would be able to leave him!

After a while, Gloria’s car stopped at the gate. Grace went over and said to Mr. Garcia, "Mr. Garcia, I left my lipstick on the table. Would you please take it down for me?"

In this way, the last suspicion in his mind disappeared.

"Yes, my lady."

Soon, Mr. Garcia handed the lipstick to Grace. She said, "thank you." She also reminded Mr. Garcia, "And, don’t forget to prepare a bowl of stewed bird’s nest, I will eat it in the evening."

She still added, "The water in the bathtub should be warm all the time. It’s cold, so I want to take a bath when I get home."

"The clothes I sent to the laundry have been brought back. They are in the closet, and you remember to spray perfume on my clothes."

Every sentence indicated that she would come back here today, but only she knew that she would not come back here again.

"Well, I’ll do everything well. Madame, please go early and return early. "

Grace got on the car. Gloria was driving and she looked at Grace who was sitting shotgun. From the moment she got on the car, the energy she had shown when facing Mr. Garcia had disappeared. She leaned back in her chair.

"A few days ago, the people of the James family came here to see me."

Gloria didn’t speak. She just listened to Grace quietly.

"They said they felt sorry and said they knew they were wrong." Grace was expressionless, as if she was stating a very common thing and as if the protagonist was not her. "After such a long time, I didn’t have the time and energy to deal with them?

She didn’t care what they said.

“But Mrs. James pulled me aside and told me a thing.”

"In that year, Wallis Venus died, and that group of thugs ran away. I was wronged as a sinner. There was some evidence showing that I was not innocent. In short, I could hardly rehabilitate myself."

“But, Mrs. James said the thugs were back."

Gloria was surprised. She turned to Grace and asked, "Is that true?"

Grace curled her lips, "At first, I was very skeptical."

She went on, "The people of the James family called me just now. They said they spent a lot of money and finally found the thugs. And they let me go there. "

"Ouch!" When Gloria slammed on the brake, Grace suddenly fell forward and hit her head. "Gloria, why did you suddenly slam on the brake?"

Gloria said seriously, "Grace, let’s go back. Don’t you know what your parents are like? If they are willing to spend a lot of money to help you, why didn’t they stand up for you in that year?"

"So we can’t go there."

Grace suddenly laughed, "Gloria, if you’re me, do you care what the truth is?"

She acted as if she were okay, but only she knew she was very uncomfortable.

Gloria was stunned, "You…you want to escape…?" Gloria was almost screaming and shaking.

If she didn’t rush to the James family because she wanted to know the truth, what could be the reason?

"Whether the James family want to repent or have other intentions, I will ask them to prepare me with an ID card first.

Mr. Shaw took my ID card. I can’t go anywhere else. I can’t get my ID card, but Mr. James must have an approach. If he really wants to take advantage of me, he will find a way to get my ID card.

Gloria looked at the woman next to her in disbelief. In her memory, Grace had always been submissive and silent. Grace made a lot of people infatuate with her years ago, but Gloria didn’t see her like that. She just knew that Grace was a very ordinary woman who was very submissive, silent and hard-working.

But it was Grace, a very ordinary and low-key woman, who took advantage of Mr. and Mrs. James. She cheated them and asked them to help her get her ID card.

"A few days ago, Mrs. James called me and said that the new ID card had been prepared." Grace turned to Gloria and said, "Gloria, I should have kept it from you, but you treat me sincerely. I know that if I escape, you will suffer. So, we just go to the James family and get the new ID card. Then I’ll stun you, and everything has nothing to do with you. Of course, you can tell Mr. Shaw that I’m going to run away."

Gloria hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and gritted her teeth. She would help her just for helping the person who Gloria used to be.

Gloria quietly restarted the car and drove the car back to the middle of the road.
