I've Been There Before

Grace couldn’t see any emotional change on Cayne’s handsome face.

Cayne simply glanced at Grace… But he was announcing the end of this hunting game in his heart.

It was fine that Grace was a gold digger, for he could make use of this weakness to approach her step by step and then to win the heart of this prey.

In this hunting game, money was the bait and Grace was the prey.

The charming part of the hunting game was to enjoy the struggles of the prey and the process of the hunting.

But when this woman asked him for the money… Cayne thought that he would like to end this hunting game, for… it was too vulgar.

“It’s late now, I have to come back.” Cayne shook off his suit pant and said goodbye to Grace lightly.

Grace pressed her lips together and said, “I will send you off.”

“No need.” Cayne replied in a cold voice. Anyone, including Grace, would feel embarrassed under such a circumstance.

The change of his attitude was so obvious.

“Don’t stand on ceremony.”

Grace closed the door. It was the first time that she had prepared to send this woman to downstairs. He had visited her several times, but every time when he was to leave, she just sent him to the door of her dormitory. But today, she made an exception and decided to send him to the downstairs.

“Miss James.” Cayne suddenly chuckled. There was a tinge of impatience on his face, “I have five million, but I don’t want to give it to you… Because at the moment you asked me the question, your noodles with scallion oil were not worthy of one hundred thousand anymore.”
