I've Been There Before

“Gloria, here you are.”

Gloria was shocked when she saw the banknotes on the table. For a long while, her mind was totally blank, “Where did you get the money?”

Her first reaction was that: Who the hell had arranged work for Grace?

Grace didn’t think much about it and briefly told Gloria what had happened last night. When hearing about it, Gloria furrowed her eyebrows, “It was him?” She looked at Grace, “Grace, didn’t I told you not to approach this man again?”

“But… He gave me the money.”

‘But… He gave me the money.’ … People who didn’t know about Grace’s characteristics or the secrets behind all these would all think that Grace was really a gold digger when hearing her saying these words.

Gloria was rendered speechless at the moment.

She was so familiar with the girl in front of her. When Grace was standing at the corner, no one would pay attention to her, just like she was not present. But Gloria was quite clear that this unimpressive girl was so stubborn.

“Grace, come hear.” Gloria looked at Grace and felt that she should give her some suggestions regarding some matters. She reached out her hand and wrapped Grace’s shoulders, and then pulled her closer to herself, “Just listen to my advice. Don’t have any associations with this man in the future. Although I haven’t experienced a lot, I’ve seen various kinds of men in Royal Club. Grace, promise me, don’t meet Mr. Cayne any longer, even if he will pay it for you.”

Grace muted for a while and then raised her head and said earnestly to Gloria, “Sorry, Gloria, I can’t.”

Gloria gripped Grace’s shoulder, “Just listen to my advice this time.”

Grace shook her head in a firmly manner, “Sorry, Gloria, I just can’t. You know, I’m in short of money. President Shaw has promised me that if I can earn five million in one month, he will not torture me any longer, and I can choose to stay here or to leave. Gloria, he’s a man of his words. The first half of my life had been entangled with his and in the end, I was hurt badly. Can I leave without him for the rest of my life?”
