I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 198

Sam’s face was pale and darkened…He looked at Grace faintly. The words he said could never be taken back.

Seeing the astonishment on Grace’s face, he looked calmer instead.

Grace stared at the old man in front of her surprisingly… She couldn’t figure out why in the world a father would be cruel enough to kill his own daughter with his own hands. Even Jafar James, Grace’s father, would not do such thing.

“How do you have the heart to do this!” She angrily denounced…Even her relationship with Wallis was terribly bad, but she couldn’t keep her composure now as she heard about such a shocking thing as a father killing his daughter.

“Why?” She looked at Sam, “Why! Why would you do that? Aren’t you afraid of the punishment from the God!”

She wasn’t seeking justice for Wallis. Instead, she just couldn’t feel at ease about this. Originally, she thought that she had witnessed all the glory, splendor, wealth and rank when she was twenty. After that, she had experienced the greatest pain and tortures in her life, dropping down to survive as a lowly person.

She had gone through the good thing and the bad thing.

She thought nothing would be more difficult to shock her in this world. Today, however, someone stood in front of her and told her without any guilt that: I killed my daughter with my own hands and blamed everything onto you.

It wasn’t about seeking justice for Wallis.

It was for her unjust verdict! She also wanted to know… Why!

What made a father killed his own daughter… She wasn’t stupid enough to believe that Sam killed his daughter just to frame her… It didn’t make sense!

“Why?” Sam laughed sarcastically: “Go ask the God when you go to the hell!” With that said, he narrowed his eyes. Grace clearly noticed the murderous look of the old man. Her heart jolted all of a sudden, this person was about to kill her!

“Wait a minute!” She shouted with her raucous voice: “Sam, no matter what you want to do, please wait first. I… want to exchange a secret about Wallis with you. The condition is, you have to tell me why you did that!”

Her heart was jumping up and down harshly. Although she knew that she couldn’t make it out alive, yet she was not reconciled to die with confusion in her mind.

“Sam, you gotta let me die for a reason. Why would you kill your own daughter, Wallis Venus, at that time… You don’t just do that to frame me, do you?”

“The incident happened that year caused me three years of imprisonment. At least, tell me the reason before I die.”

If there was hell in this world, would there be negative 18 floors under the hell? Who could tell?

If one couldn’t figure it out when one was alive, would one count on asking Hades?

Sam originally wanted to kill Grace right away, but after hearing Grace’s sincere words, his old eyes revealed signs of contemplation.

Regarding Wallis’ secret mentioned by Grace, Sam… seemed to be interested in it.

“Okay, tell me about it. But I have to warn you something. If you just say something random and call it Wallis’ secret, then don’t blame me for breaking the deal.”

Grace nodded hurriedly:

“Wallis cried with her eyes red once, and she told me that you disliked and avoided her for not being a boy. And you considered her to be a disgrace. You even had an illegitimate child, who died from a car accident later. She cried for a long time because of this. She said, even if you don’t like her, but he was still her brother. However, you don’t even allow her to see her brother until he died. She was upset.”

Sam had an illegitimate child… This, should be counted as a secret, right?

Grace was worried that Sam would not accept this deal, but she didn’t expect Sam, after hearing her words, suddenly outraged:

“She was upset? How was she upset! She was the one who hired someone to kill my son!” Sam got extremely agitated all of a sudden, “She killed my son, and complained to you with tears!” Sam stared at Grace with a weird expression:

“Right, you’re right. She didn’t suicide. How would a person like her, who murdered her own brother cold-bloodedly, kill herself! Don’t you want to know how she died? It was me. I suffocated her to death with a pillow!”

Grace felt her heart was in chaos… As she watched the old man describing insanely the details of how he killed his own daughter step by step. She felt that… Sam had already gone crazy!

After all the descriptions, he smiled strangely, staring at Grace in the face:

“I suffocated her to death, then, I reconstructed the crime scene so that it looked like she killed herself. I watched her struggling until she breathed her last breath, and finally her body moved no more. At that moment, I thought of my son, who was dragged by the car on the road for more than ten meters. But he wasn’t dead yet, he was struggling painfully on the ground, like a fish struggling without water. I felt so comfortable after killing her. I finally revenge for my son!”

Grace looked at this crazy old man in shock… “You’re insane! That was your daughter! Your family are nuts!”

Wallis murdered Sam’s illegitimate child, and Sam, in turn, killed Wallis! This entire family was full of nuts!

Unfortunately, this insane family even framed her in!

“I need a son to continue the family line. The daughter will eventually be married to someone and no longer belong to my family. It took me so much effort to have a son, raising him to twelve years old, but killed by that sinister witch!”

“Then you should cherish your daughter more! Instead of doing such a terrifying thing!”

“Daughter? Heh… Daughter?” Sam said the word “daughter” twice consecutively. His expression was so strange that Grace couldn’t even tell what it represented.

Sam continued to tell his story:

“After my wife gave birth to the child, I went over to check it. I hugged the baby with my own hands and I clearly saw the black mole on the sole of my child’s right foot. When I was about to leave the hospital with my wife and after I finished the check-out procedures, I hugged the baby myself as well. I also clearly saw that the child didn’t have a mole on the sole of her right foot. It was perfectly clean! ”

Sam continued: “Wallis Venus was not my daughter at all!”

Boom!

It was as though something just exploded beside Grace’s ears!

She was so blown away by Sam’s words that she didn’t even have the time to think.

She looked petrified, couldn’t recover from it for a while… Wallis Venus… wasn’t Sam’s daughter… But… But… Her hands, which were tied on the back of the chair, shuddered harshly, she couldn’t stop trembling. Her fingernails stabbed into the palm forcefully. Warm blood streamed out from the palms of both hands, dripping onto the floor.

Before Grace could digest these facts, Sam stared at her ferociously:

“But no matter how bad Wallis was, I have raised her for more than ten years. I would even have feelings for an animal after such a long time! Grace, after all, it was all because of you. If you kept your appointment and came over, if Wallis didn’t suffer from the atrocity and humiliation from those a*ssholes for you, and I didn’t see how wretched she looked at that time— She was already selected by the mister, but she was no longer a pure virgin. Therefore, she had no reason to be alive.

“However, if it was not your failure to keep your appointment, then how would Wallis suffer for you. You were supposed to undergo all of that!

“And I, if it weren’t you, how would I think of her heartlessness and cruelty to my son, how would I kill her because she was no longer a virgin?… After all, she was raised by me for more than twenty years as my own daughter!” Sam sneered:

“So, you are the one who causes this! You made me kill the child raised by me!”

Seeing the insane old man and hearing his ridiculous speech, Grace felt her heart as dry as a desert at this moment.

She couldn’t tell the old man that: I have a black mole on the sole of my right foot since childhood.
