I've Been There Before Chapter 20 Ruby's Penetrating Criticism

Allured by Queena, this libidinous Mr. Zavier had no sympathy to spare for Grace, and agreed
forthrightly, “Well, it's at your disposal.” As he was

speaking, his hairy hands cruised on Queenas thighs.



“Yuck, don't blame me not for being benevolent.” Mr. Zavier took out a stack of notes, which were
roughly worthy of 50,000 CNY, from his black briefcase and added, “1,000 for a song. lf you sing 10
songs, you can take 10,000; if you sing 20 songs, you'll get 20,000; and if you can sing 50 Songs, you
can take all.” But it took at least three hours to sing 50 songs.



“Oh, Mr. Zavier, why will you reward her so much?”



“Dearie, I'll give you more later." He curled his lips into a charming smile, of course only he himself
thought so, and added, “Sweetie, don't hurry,I will also gift you the most essential and precious thing of
my body."



“Oh, Mr. Zavier, you are so bad.” Queena got up from Mr. Zavier and headed towards the machine
swing her waist, and then added several songs to the list.





After finishing it, she slowly and charmingly walked towards Mr. Zavier.



Grace picked up the microphone... When she saw that the first song was “Qinghai-Tibet Plateaư, she
was petrified. Then she saw that the second song was 'Death Love, and the third song was “Eighteen
Curve of Hill Pathí... As Grace scrolled down, she gradually accepted these high-pitch songs selected
by Queena.



Queena wanted to completely ruin her voice today.



lf something had not happened to her voice, the songs she sang would be so pleasant to ears. But
now, her voice was ruined. When the rough Sound rang out in the room, Mr. Zavier immediately
furrowed his eyebrows into a knit, while Queena Grace sang one song after another, yet no one was
listening to them. Mr. Zavier was watching movie with Queen in his arms, while Queena was playing a
mobile game.



None of them had asked Grace to stop, so Grace had to continue to sing, until she found her voice
couldn't work.





Although with a microphone, her voice was almost inaudible. Grace ignored the pain on her legs and
continued to sing those high-pitch songs.



“All right, pretty much.” Mr. Zavier suddenly stood up from sofa, pulled out the earplugs, and looked at
Grace with his eyebrows furrowed, “You can take all the money on the table.”



Queena swiftly stood up, “Mr. Zavier, she hasn't finished all songs."



“All right, sweetie, come on, I dort want to torture my ears with sụch scrannel songs, and her voice is
disappearing. The night of rendezvous is always too short, now l want to enjoy my time of being your
“hubby'”



Although Queena was still unsatisfied, she was not that stupid to offend her sugar daddy. She blushed
and looked down, and nestled in his arms, fawning, “Mr. Zavier, oh~”



“don't call me Mr. Zavier, call me hubby. Go, let's come to our ˆwedding room'” After finishing the words,
Mr. Zavier carried Queena, who grumbled flirtingly because of his action, and left the room.



When they passed Grace, Queena said complacently, “Although your voice was disappearing, it
became more pleasant to ears after singing these songs. You should praise me for the idea. l asked



you to sing the songs and therefore your voice became pleasant.”



Grace didn't reply. When Queena stepped out of the room, Grace finally failed to support herself with
her legs... “Bang!” With a loud sound, she slumped onto the ground.

Grace sat on the ground with her mind drifting away for half an hour. Then she massaged her knees
and her muscles to alleviate the pain in her legs before standing up. Shivering, she reached out her
hangs to grasp the notes on the table, and then walked towards outside.



“Gloria, do me a favor, please help me deposit them.”



“Where did you get the money?” Glorias gaze became sharper. She hadrït arrange any work for Grace
today!... “By the way, what's wrong with your voice?”



“Nothing. It's just that I haven't sung songs for a long time. .Just now, one of my colleagues introduced
me to sing songs to a rich man, and then I got the rewards.” Gloria was so shrewd, so naturally she
discerned that Grace didn't want to continue this topic. She suppressed the doubts, nodded, and took
the money from Grace while handing her a glass of warm water, “Drink it.”



Watching Grace gulping down the water, Glorias gaze became even colder... Grace was so thirsty, and
Grace's excuse of sing several songs was not enough to explain it.





“Gloria, I'lÍ go to the canteen.” Royal Club served its employees a free dinner every day. Seeing that it
was approximate to the meal time, Grace said goodbye to Gloria and headed towards the canteen.



After having the dinner, Grace simply killed time until it was time to get off work, and then went back to
the staff dormitory in South Bay House.



Her roommate, Ruby Carter, had come back earlier. When Grace stepped into the dormitory, Ruby
swiftly stood up, “Gr... Grace Sis.”



Grace nodded and walked towards her bedroom through the living room.



“Grave... ls that true?” Ruby suddenly asked a question.



Grace looked at Ruby in confusion.

“Is the rumor true?” asked Ruby, “Grace, it was widely spread that you... you crawl on the ground and
wag your tail, just... just to take the rewards... Tell me, they were liars. lts not true, right?” Ruby became
emotive.





Ruby s words were like a hammer blow on Grace's chest. Her whole body tautened and shivered
slightly. After steadying herself, Grave shot a bland glance at Ruby, “It's true.”



“It turns out that they were not telling lies!" Ruby goggled in disbelief and exclaimed, “Grace Sis, I
haven't expected that you are such kind of a person. How could you sell your bacon just to get the
money?”



“Grace Sis, how could you do this? How comes that you are this kind of filthy person. I stood out to put
in good words for you when they gossiped about you, but I regret it now. How could you do such a
shameless thing?” Ruby shouted and criticized Grace angrily, “I was mistaken about you!”



Grace stood at the door of her bedroom and listened to Ruby's criticism quietly. She looked at this
university student with composure and gave her a light smile.



“What are you smiling at?” Ruby asked in disbelief, “How can you smile at this moment? Grace, to get
the money, you can do everything, right?” Ruby was irritated and shouted at Grace, “ls money so
important to you?”





Ruby's voice became sharp and rasping. Grace was still composed and calmly casted her gaze on the
exciting and angry girl, “lÝ money is not important, why do you work in Royal Club?” She slowly uttered
the words in a composed manner, as if she was stating a truth.



"I... .Ruby's expression changed. “This is totally different! I work as a waitress in Royal Club, and what l
need to do here is to take the dishes to the table. You also know about the condition of my family! l just
want to earn my tuition fee and living expenses." Ruby glared at Grace as if she was looking at
something filthy, “I won't be like you. You can do anything to get the money and have no bottom line!”



Grace smiled again. Ruby just scolded her for having no bottom line. But as a matter of fact, she did
have a bottom line — she won't drink alcohol, and she must live her life!
