I've Been There Before

Chapter 239 The Note Saying Goodbye VS Karma VS Mrs. James Has Come

“Boss, don’t you belong to the Shaws?” Carol quickly followed her and asked carefully, “Why do they call you James?”

Grace stopped at the door of her room. She turned around and landed her gaze on Carol, whose eyes were filled with fear. Grace understood at a glance that the girl in front of her had changed. Carol was no longer the innocent girl that she used to be. Instead, she had become increasingly cautious.

“Carol, you’re afraid of me, aren’t you?”

Grace asked. But Carol didn’t answer her question.

Her tender face turned red in a second. Everyone could tell her embarrassment. She said, “No, boss. Why would I be afraid of you? You are the kindest to me.”

Grace touched Carol’s face with her cold hand. Carol trembled and secretly looked at her boss through the eyelids. However, she didn’t expect that she would bump into a pair of eyes filled with grief. Grace looked thoughtful yet helpless. Carol was at a loss of words, “Boss …”

“Carol, I don’t know my name, either.

My grandfather named me Grace James when I was born. He is a James. So is my father. I was the daughter of the James family.

Then, Grandpa passed away. I made a mistake by offending someone that I shouldn’t. I was no longer a James since then.

Afterwards, some people told me that my surname was ‘Shaw’, and I was Grace Shaw from then on.

I don’t know what my name is, but I feel more at ease when you call me boss.”

She wiped the tears off Carol’s face with her thumb and said, “Good girl, what are you crying for?” After thinking for a while, she walked into her bedroom and waved to Carol at the door. “Come in,” she said.

With that, she opened a safe in the corner and carefully took out a file bag from it, saying, “Carol, what’s wrong? Sit down.”

As she spoke to Carol, Grace sat down on a chair beside her and opened the file bag in her hand. She said, “If I leave this world one day, take this and go find Mr. Nielson of HC Law Firm. Jonas Nielson.

‘Memory Inn’ is very important to me. It’s more important than my life. If I die, be strong and help me take care of this place, won’t you?”

Naïve and innocent as Carol was, she could still tell that something was wrong. “Boss, you’re not going to...leave, are you?” Actually, Carol felt that Grace’s words were more like a note saying goodbye.

Nonsense! Long live the boss!

Carol tried to comfort herself.

Grace stood up and said, “I’ll take you somewhere.” Without explaining away Carol’s doubts, she walked out of the room with the file bag in her hand.

“Boss, where are you going?”

Grace walked in front, a little anxious, a little staggered. Carol mumbled, “Boss, you are having trouble with your feet! Slow down.”

Following Grace, Carol stood in front of the door in the most remote corner of Memory Inn.

“Boss, you always tell us to stay away from here, don’t you?”

Grace ignored her words. She put a key in the hole. With a twist, the door creaked open. Then she pushed the door and walked in. The room was a little dark. She turned on the light.

Carol gasped before saying, “A picture…of the dead...”
