I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 63

Grace James!

It’s about Grace James again!

Why did everyone care so much about Grace James!

Ruby didn’t want to admit that she’s jealous of Grace James even though she’s not in control now.

“Pr-President Shaw.”

She said shakily, “I have no grudge against Grace James.”

“I don’t want to listen to your nonsense,” Caden said emotionlessly. Using his gloved hands, he applied more pressure on his grip on her chin. That strength was close enough to break her mandible.

It was so painful that it brought tears to Ruby’s eyes. She almost suspected that she heard her bone cracked.

“I-I-I’ll say it.” The person in front of her was a devil, so scary and evil. Because of this, she hated Grace once again…Grace had promised her that she will help her in this!

She didn’t help her at all!

She was only pretending to be a good person!

She faked her kindness!

Disgusting! Fake woman!

Bitch!

She’s the best when it came to acting all good!

However, Ruby’s thoughts didn’t matter at this moment. She’s still very scared of the devil in front of her.

“It’s Mr. Cordon.”

Mr. Cordon? …Caden contemplated before raising his eyebrow. “Do you mean Franklin Cordon?”

“Yes. I liked Mr. Cordon, but she bewitched him. If Grace knew her place, I would have held no grudges against her.

But she’s the opposite of one! She’ll do anything for money. Mr. Cordon was fooled by her and he’s still not aware of her true colour.

I didn’t want her to continue fooling him. Wasn’t the reason of her fooling him, was just because of his wealth?”

When Ruby voiced out her opinion, she wasn’t only hinting the reason she hated Grace. She also indirectly called out to the man in front of her to not be blinded by Grace’s acting!

Kirk frowned. However, he remained silent at the side.

Neither happiness nor angriness was visible on Caden’s cold expression.

He stared down at Ruby from above and asked, “Do you have any evidence that Grace seduced Franklin?”

“I have!” Rage flashed across her eyes as she spoke, “I saw them hugging and kissing each other at the staircase!”

Caden’s eyes suddenly became alert, “Are you sure you saw them hugging and kissing ech other at the staircase?”

“I’m sure! I saw it with my own eyes! Both of them kissed so deeply as if they couldn’t be separated from each other!”

For a split second, Caden’s breathing became inconsistent, but it was only that split second!

Coldness slowly crept up on Caden’s handsome face. The atmosphere of the room gradually became tense. Kirk had followed Caden for a long time, so he was the first one to sense his boss’s change of mood.

“It’s not only this. Mr. Cordon treated Grace better than how he treated anyone else. Last time when Grace fell, Mr. Cordon held her waist to support her.

If it’s a normal person, how would they let a man hold their waist?”

The surroundings suddenly froze. Caden’s face turned colder.

He squinted his eyes. “How are you so sure that it’s not the other way around?”

It was like Ruby had forgotten her current situation at the mention of Grace. She snorted and vented out her anger.

“How is that possible? What does Grace have? Is it beauty, is it body shape, is it deposition, or is it family background, or is it about her education?”

“She doesn’t have anything. Maybe she has three ultimate tricks up her sleeves, that’s why she’s able to seduce Mr. Cordon. Or did she use her pitiful situation to gain sympathy? I mean, Mr. Cordon hasn’t met someone like Grace before, so it’s possible too.”

Ruby didn’t hold back her thoughts when she talked about Grace. She was really angry. Now that she had the chance to talk to President Shaw, she wanted to do whatever she could to expose Grace James!

Kirk raised his eyebrows while watching Ruby. This woman had definitely forgot about how Grace pleaded to President Shaw on behalf of her, and now she’s even trash-talking about Grace behind her back.

Ungrateful.
