I've Been There Before

“Cad…” Humbert said and fell silent. Caden looked frightening. Even a person like Humbert felt cold looking at him.

Caden didn’t bother with Humbert and his eyes fixated on Grace. His current expression was extremely horrible!

One felt angry and all the pent-up frustrations when looking at this woman.

“You really can’t learn to be obedient!”

The man’s voice was cold and chilling.

Humbert was terrified. His eyes moved between Caden and Grace and the atmosphere of the room was ice cold!

It looked calm on the surface but feelings were raging within!

When the woman on the patient bed looked at the person standing by the door, her shoulders trembled. She hated this man as she was scared of him.

Her face turned pale.

“These three years didn’t turn you into a better person but you even became bolder.” His voice was colder than ice and could freeze anyone’s heart!

Even though for countless of times she had told herself not to interact with Caden; even though she failed time and again; Even though she told herself that ‘She can’t be bothered’; she just wanted to live properly and repay her debts properly, but Grace was still hurting.

“Then send me back to prison!” She couldn’t control her temper and yelled, “Caden, send me back to prison! I will still tell you in a period of three years, or two periods of three years or three periods of three years! Countless periods of three years! That means that on the day of my death, I will still use my life to curse Wallis to hell!”

How well she treated Wallis in the past was now much she hated this person now!

During these three years, she was locked up without a chance to see the sky. She had plenty of time to think about what happened that night.

Three years was sufficient time for her to figure some things out.

Except that until the day of her release from the prison, she couldn’t dare to believe, it was as if she was hypnotized and told herself repeatedly, ‘Surely it’s a misunderstanding. Surely it’s because she had been tortured and shamed and too dark and dirty. That’s why her heart became ugly and everyone she saw was bad. She had vented her anger towards Wallis.

Countless times she lied to herself and countless times she told herself that it wasn’t Wallis fault and it was her heart that turned ugly and thought of Wallis in a bad way.

But when they were at the Royal Club and Quinn asked her why did she force Wallis to drink the bottle of whiskey, Grace could no longer lie to herself.

So, it wasn’t her heart turning ugly after experiencing all these traumatic conditions.

But from the beginning to the end she had misplaced her trust for that girl with the sweet and pretty smile, who was acting like a gentle, and adorable girl!

Wallis, Wallis!

She had thought that she never treat this person bad and yet Wallis kept acting in front of her. What was she feeling when each time she said to herself, “Actually I don’t like Caden”?

Whenever she was rejected by Caden, Wallis would console and encourage her and she would believe and be so touched by her.
