I've Been There Before

“Grace, you are not the girl you used to be.”

Grace’s face froze, “Gloria…”

“Grace, don’t you notice yourself that you are no more reserved and stiff? Before that, you looked so listless, but now you make me feel like you have come back to life.”

Grace tried to respond.

“Grace, who brought you back to life? Is that the man named Cayne?” However, Gloria did not look happy or satisfied for Grace’s revival at all, but scolded her.

“You should know he bears an evil intention to get close to you.”

Gloria was quite aware of the change of Grace at the beginning, but the man who tried to get close to her was a man with evil intention.

Gloria spoke with difficulty, “I will arrange a new dorm for you. And please promise me you will never meet him again.”

“No!” Grace refused immediately while clenching her fists. But she also noticed the disappointment hidden in Gloria’s eyes. Grace continued, “Gloria, I don’t want to change a new dorm. I promise I will never meet him as long as I get five million in total.”

Gloria gritted, “Grace, don’t regret it since you insist.” She glared at Grace and shouted. Then she left the office to avoid seeing Grace again.

Grace stood still in the office, and the warning from Gloria kept lingering in her mind. Of course she knew that Cayne approached her for evil intention.

“But I just can’t stop myself from being greedy. I want to have the same kind of feelings as a human.” Grace was also aware that she should stay away from Cayne. But his appearance in her life brought her something different and even enlightened her life.
