I've Been There Before

Caden was hospitalized for observation in Italy. After Caden’s condition stabilized, they returned to S City.

But...

Looking at the slender fingers at the corner of her clothes, Grace didn’t know how to describe her feelings.

Caden was cautious like a child. Everything changed overnight.

Few people knew that. Besides Humbert and Ingemar, the bodyguards who had protected Caden since Caden was young knew that.

Ladd, Scott and the others wouldn’t betray Caden.

It was impossible for Humbert and Ingemar to betray Caden.

However, Caden was different from before.

It was OK in Italy. Once Caden went back to S City, it might be discovered.

They couldn’t come up with an idea soon.

Humbert was smarter. “We can let Caden ‘take a vacation’.”

Ingemar nodded heavily, “That’s all we can do. Hope Caden will recover soon.”

Although it was possible, they knew that the chance was slight.

“We can’t let others know that.” Humbert thought about it. “Don’t forget that Kern’s in the Shaw’s. Master Shaw and Kern are smart. They will seize the opportunity.

We must keep the secret as long as possible.”

“OK. Caden has a private manor on the Chongming Island.

It’s in the suburbs. It’s underpopulated and beautiful. It’s a good place to take a vacation.”

They had no other choice.

Even Grace couldn’t think of a better way.

“When Caden is not in the group, someone has to deal with all of the Shaw Group’s affairs.”

This was a new problem.

Ingemar clapped his hands and said, “It’s easy. Let Caden make a temporary appointment for us. You and I are Caden’s good friends. If we deal with the affairs of the Shaw Group, no one will suspect. We did that.”

Then he glanced at Grace.

Grace rubbed her nose. Why did he look at her?

“I need your cooperation, ‘Mrs. Shaw’.”

Ingemar said solemnly and emphasized the words “Mrs. Shaw”.

Grace was in a mess. She nodded randomly.

It was difficult for her to accept what had happened. It was too sudden.

Since they had made their decision, Humbert and Ingemar started to take action.

After they returned to S City from Italy, they didn’t waste any time. Caden had stayed in Italy for a long time. It aroused Hale’s suspicion. As soon as Caden returned to S City, Hale sent a message to Caden’s manor. Hale’s men said, “Master Shaw missed Mr. Caden. Master Shaw hopes that Mr. Caden can visit him.”

On the second floor of the main building of the Shaw Manor, a man stood behind the handrail. He said coldly, “Please tell Master Shaw that I’m busy recently. Please let him care for his health.”

Hale’s men knew that they were not welcome here. They observed the man behind the handrail carefully and left.

As soon as they left, the indifferent man behind the handrail changed his expression and turned around to ask for praise urgently.

“Miss, did I behave well?”

Behind him, Grace stood quietly.

“Very well,” she said. Just now, she almost thought that he pretended to lose his memory.

His tone was as cold as before. No one would believe he wasn’t Caden.

However, her thought was shattered by Caden who was eager to please her.

If Caden didn’t lose his memory, how could he be a man who showed the white feather?

He even wanted to please Grace. She couldn’t imagine that. If he didn’t lose his memory, he wouldn’t be like that no matter what happened.

Caden was arrogant.

Caden was cold.

Caden was indifferent.

Caden was cruel.

Caden wouldn’t show the white feather and please her.

She didn’t know why.

She didn’t notice that she was disappointed. She didn’t want to admit it.

Grace was absent-minded. “Didn’t I behave well?” When he grabbed her clothes again, she regained her senses.

“Very well.”

He felt happy. He stretched out his head towards her.

“What are you doing?” Looking at his head, Grace was confused.

“I want a reward. Mr. Humbert said you would reward me if I behaved well.” Caden raised his head and revealed half of his face. He was handsome. He was eager to get the reward.

She didn’t know what to say and felt disappointed. Didn’t he remember anything?

“Can’t I get the reward?” He almost cried.

Grace bit her lips and said, “You behaved well.” She had mixed feelings and stroked his head.

He put his head on her shoulder. She was surprised. She saw his face vaguely. He was happy.

He was so happy.

“Don’t you remember anything?”

She wanted to ask him the question, but she didn’t.

Humbert walked over from behind and said, “Everything is ready. Let’s send Caden away.”

A car left the Shaw Manor. They picked up the motorway to the Chongming Island.

It was quiet inside the car. Grace looked at Caden who was leaning on her shoulder and sleeping soundly.

She recalled what happened in the past. Some memories were good, while some memories were bad. She even recalled what happened before and after she was in prison.

In her memories, Caden occupied more than half of her life. He appeared in most of her memories.

However, no matter the memories were good or bad and no matter the things happened before or after she was in prison, she was the only one who remembered these things. He occupied half her life, but he didn’t remember these things.

She put her hands on her legs quietly. When she recalled these things, she clenched her fists tightly. She left nail marks on her palms.

She felt gloomy. She turned around and looked at the rapidly retreating scene outside the car. She was at a loss.

He didn’t remember these things.

Only she remembered the love, hatred, entanglement and pain between her and him.

Her fists on her legs trembled as if she was enduring something.

They got off the motorway and drove to the suburbs. The destination was remote.

They turned into an inconspicuous path. The trees beside the road were towering.

Then they drove about forty minutes. Not far away, there was a house among the trees.

“Here we are.”

They got out of the car. Caden fell asleep. Humbert bent down and pulled Caden away from Grace’s shoulder. He carried Caden with Ingemar and walked into the manor.
