I've Been There Before

Chapter 32: Five Million

The sound of her knees impacting the floor!

 

“President Shaw, 'I will pay you back the five million, not a cent less into your account. 'I will work hard, please believe me. Give me some more time”

 

Five million was a figure that the man said to make things difficult for her. This was to make up for the insult to him... If this can make him feel better and not be angry, then she was willing to do anything.

 

Five million for her freedom.

 

Caden's fury within him raged uncontrollably.

 

What he didn't realize was when he looked at Grace's expression, he was actually feeling a complex mixture of heartache.

 

What kind of a woman was she!

 

Spineless, pitiful, inferior, meek... Since when were these words used to describe her?!

 

Kneel?

 

Kneel?

 

This damned kneel!

 

“Are your knees so worthless?”

 

Ha, hahaha...hahaha! Grace opened her eyes wide open as she was worried that once she blinked, her tears would flow.

 

She's scared of getting beaten.

 

Not that she was afraid of the pain, but she was scared of the sound of her dignity shattering when she was beaten!

 

‘Caden, you should know that in that prison, 'I dared not shed a tear because each tear would bring forth a beating:

 

‘You should know that Grace was no longer Grace.

 

‘You should know that being bound to the toilet seat for the night and to be laughed by all those around. At that moment, 'I thought that 'I was no longer a person. I'm a beast, a dog, a pig!’

 

“lask you for the final time, Grace, you really don’t want your dignity?” He asked coldly. He never revealed his emotions and no one could guess his feelings.

 

Who could have seen that under that cold voice, was hiding his anger and pain? Even he didn't realize that.

 

Grace's hands were trembling.

 

She quickly looked down at the ground.

 

Dignity? What's dignity?
