I've Been There Before

No one had expected that Grace would be so calm.

Ingemar breathed a sigh of relief. Kern stared at Grace and Caden with sharp eyes, pursing his lips.

That man in the crowd also stared at them. His Adam’s apple moved quickly, which meant he also cared about their reaction.

Caden looked at her nervously.

“Grace.” He did not realize that he was really nervous. “I didn’t mean to deceive you. I just wanted you to stay with me. But at that time, you were too wary of me. You were even wary of my words.

Grace, I just wanted you to stay with me. That’s why I deceived you. I … had no choice.”

She listened quietly. But the more he said, the more desperate she was.

How dare him!

She put her hands into her jacket pocket and clenched her fists.

She wanted to clench her dignity and expectation.

She was wrong.

“So, this is your plan, right?” She calmly raised her head and asked, “Everything was part of your plan. The so-called injuries in Italy ... the lost memories ... the declining intelligence ... You asked the doctor to lie to me, right?

You’re all actors, and I’m the only audience, right? “

From the beginning to the end, she was calm, as if she wasn’t angry at all. However, her questions revealed her emotional fluctuations.

In fact, she was just not good at expressing her feelings. She was no longer as arrogant and unyielding as she was when she was a teenager. At that time, she wanted to reveal her thoughts, opinions, and feelings to everyone in the world.

But she was no longer a teenager.

She didn’t get emotional easily as before.

“Grace, I just wanted you to stay with me like before.” Caden looked nervously at her.

“I didn’t mean to lie to you. Can you forgive me?”

She smiled, “I’m a bit overwhelmed. Can I answer this question after I think about it quietly?”

She was so calm.

Caden looked at her nervously. Finally, he decided to compromise, “Sure.”

“Great.” She raised her head and smiled at Caden.

She turned around and left.

All the insiders expected a conflict.

However, there was no conflict.

Kern was unsatisfied. He said angrily, “Grace, how could you leave now?”

Grace said, “Thank you for taking me here. But you took me here just because you wanted to laugh at me, right?”

Kern was dumfounded. She was right. He wanted to know if she would still be deeply attached to Caden when she knew the truth. He wanted to know if she would regret the decision to reject him!
