I've Been There Before

“Grace, you don’t deserve anyone kind to you as being kind to you is one’s biggest mistake,” Caden swore everything could insult her. There were fury and sorrow in his eyes.

Caden’s words hurt Grace a lot.

She snapped up her head.

Her gaze dotted with irritation. She had never been so out of control since Leona’s death. Her voice was angrily hoarse.

“You know nothing! You just don’t know anything! How dare you accuse me!” I’ve suffered what you’ve never suffered. I was deeply hurt by what you don’t understand.

“I know you too well, great President Shaw. I won’t show up in this room, or in front of you, if you just give her a small punishment.” Maybe it was a moment of insanity that Grace pathetically said in her guttural voice.

“I don’t care what you do to her. I don’t care how you punish her. I just want to beg you not to kill her.” She looked at the man’s face above her. She knew him too well as he could throw her into jail when she was still the daughter of family James. It was no wonder he’d take away Ruby’s life.

Caden didn’t retort as there was confirmation in his eyes.

Grace was right about him.

“I don’t want to make another get killed. Directly or not, I don’t want it anymore,” Grace said sincerely.

Is she begging for Ruby?

No!

Grace didn’t care what would happen to Ruby in the end. All she cared was her life.

She could never pay off the debt of Leona’s death, which was wasted on saving her.

It was her debt, her guilt, and her pain.

She didn’t care about Ruby at all. It was true that Ruby was evil and selfish. It was true that she was indifferent.

But she didn’t want to ruin other’s lives. It wasn’t about good or evil.

And that was why she “willingly” came to Caden.

She didn’t care what others thought of her, even if she was taken as a saint or Mother Maria…Anyway, she’d suffered worse when she was treated as a murderer, a prisoner, and a shameless bitch.
