I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 59

In Grace’s ward, Caden looked at the woman in bed who was checked over by Humbert.

“It’s not serious,” Humbert said, “but you can’t torture her anymore as she had a tough day today.”

Humbert hissed, “You have moved to a new level in terms of torturing people, haven’t you?”

What an obvious taunt.

But Caden didn’t shoot him with a cold glare.

Hehe. Lucky him today.

Anyway, he should grasp this rare opportunity and tease his best friends as it was hard for him not to angrily retort.

“Dude, tell me what did you do to her after I left.”

Swoosh!

Caden shot him with a glower, making his breath hitch. “Fine…I respect your secret.” Humbert said in a fake girly tone, “Oh my god! I’m scared.”

Humbert’s weird tone made Caden’s features darkened. He narrowed his eyes on Humbert. “You can leave now.”

“Crap! Don’t you ever think I’m always at your service so that you can kick me away when I’m not in need. Caden Shaw! How ruthless you are!”

Caden sighed, “Just go home, okay? You look so worn out.” He raised his arm to see his wristwatch. “Don’t you have to check over the patients tomorrow? Little time for sleep.”

Well…It was Caden’s sudden tenderness. Nobody but Humbert could recognize Caden’s tenderness, though it was fleeting warmth.

It was said that Caden was ruthlessly tough and arrogant, but only his dudes could recognize his tenderness in disguise.

Humbert suddenly shifted his eyes to Grace as a crazy thought came into his mind. His eyes roamed over Caden…What the fuck?

Caden’s tenderness?

Caden’s tenderness?

He also spared it to Grace?

“You…” Humbert choked on his words.

“What?”

“Just don’t torture her.” Humbert hid the crazy thought in mind.

Because he knew Caden too well. Caden was born to be rebellious and arrogant, so he couldn’t tell Caden that Caden had a crush on Grace.

Otherwise…he’d be doomed.

Arrogant as Caden was, he wouldn’t take it that he got Grace, whom he loved, locked in the prison for three years.

Never would he.

Humbert knew him too well.

Or maybe it was just a wrong moment of spur.

“Don’t torture her anymore… If her broken body suffers, she’ll go to the hell.

If you really hate her so bad that you want her to suffer, you have to ensure she’s alive, right?”
