I've Been There Before

The old mansion of the Shaw family occupied a very large land. It was a quiet place in the prosperous area. A hundred years ago, anyone who could live in this area was the most respectable.

The smell of sandalwood essence pervaded, and Master Shaw’s face was hidden in the fragrant mist. The wrinkles on his aged face were blurred.

Grace had already been taken into the living room and stood in the middle of the hall for a long time. Apart from Master Shaw, the servants of the Shaw family who wore Chinese tunic uniforms stood on both sides with their hands behind their backs.

Grace suddenly laughed silently. Her eyes swept across the surroundings. It really looked like an ancient court of justice, and she was the “prisoner”.

Master Shaw liked to smoke hookah, and the sound of hookah was intermittent.

Kirk stood behind Master Shaw. He and the old housekeeper of the Shaw family standing on either side of Master Shaw looked like Master Shaw’s right and left arms.

Grace was indifferent as she glanced at Kirk’s confident face. A smile flashed across her lips but the smile was extremely ironic. How could Master Shaw who shaped a strong man like Caden accept a traitor like Kirk?

The hookah knocked on the table

The sound broke the silence. Master Shaw coughed and the old butler immediately took out a palm-sized ancient spittoon and handed it to Master Shaw.

After Master Shaw finished all these, Grace still remained silent in the middle of the hall.

Master Shaw finally looked at the woman standing in the hall. He suddenly narrowed one of his eyes and looked up and down at Grace. His cloudy eyes were very presumptuous.

Grace still stood there calmly.

Master Shaw put down the tea cup that the old butler brought over to let him rinse his mouth. “Your grandfather taught you well.”

“Thank you.”

She replied indifferently.
