I've Been There Before Chapter 174 The Gold Digger Grace James

Obviously, Grace also noticed the attention of the crowd.

“I am going to the bathroom.” She lifted her feet and scurried outside in panic.

How would Cayne let her go so easily?

Seeing that Grace want to leave, the expression on the man’s charming face changed, he stepped
forth and wanted to chase Grace. However, there was a Caden Shaw in front of him, unshakeable like
a mountain.

“Move out of my way!” He stretched out his hand to push Caden away, coldness glittered in the latter’s
eyes, “In here, nobody dares to make trouble. Do you wanna try the consequence?”

The cold voice rang out.

Grace quickened her pace, the high heels under her feet really slowed her down.

“Wait a second, Grace! Answer me one question!”

Cayne was desperate, how could he let go of this chance?

If he hadn’t run into this woman again, he might just let this matter pass.

Grace held her steps.

With her back facing Cayne, she talked after pausing a half a minute, “Okay.” The gruff voice was low,
without any emotion.

“You… besides my money, do you… do you have true feelings for me for a mere second?”

When Cayne asked this question, everyone’s expression changed.



Caden’s black eyes immediately sharpened, darting at Grace.

Both Humbert and Ingemar were stunned… This… This foreigner that looked as beautiful as a fairy
had true feelings for Grace?

These two had been friends for many years, they had thought of this almost at the same time and
looked at each other surprisingly. They saw the same shock and confusion in the other’s eyes.

As for Grace, her heart shrank the moment Cayne asked this question. For a moment, she thought she
had heard it wrong, and her face was also full of surprise.

As for Cayne himself, the moment he asked the question, he got himself shocked first… His brown
eyes looked shocked, how would he ask a question like this?

But, at this moment, the question he asked was this, even he didn’t want to admit it, it was still an
undisputed fact!

There were some things that although one was desperate to deny, yet one’s body and heart would
remain honest. The words that came out of one’s mouth without thinking were either a lie that had been
fabricated in one’s heart beforehand, or they were the most honest truth.

No doubt, Cayne’s case was the latter.

He was a smart man, it seemed that he had already accepted everything at once.

He straightened his body and asked Grace again, “The late night food that you prepared everyday… Is
there any other feelings except for the sake of money?”

This time, he wasn’t in a hurry like the first time. Seriousness was put on his beautiful face, he looked
right into Grace’s eyes.



Sorrow emerged from Caden’s heart, he looked at Grace, as if looking at a wife that had cheated on
him.

Both Humbert and Ingemar were looking at Caden instead.

“You see,” Humbert unfolded his hands, “I have already told you that she shouldn’t be back to the S
City again.”

Ingemar was in a complicated mood, “In the end, the two became enemies, but Caden has true
feelings for…” As Ingemar said, his eyes reflected traces of “ridiculous” and a bit of worry, “They…”
Could they still be together?

“Me and you, we are just viewers. Since we can’t make things right in time, then… Let’s take care of
that fool in love.”

Apparently, “that fool in love” was Caden Shaw for sure.

Ingemar didn’t speak, it was his acquiescence.

Though Caden felt jealous right now, yet he didn’t stop Grace. In fact, he wanted to hear her answers.

After a pause, Grace finally spoke, “I had never thought about how, when, or what the circumstances
would be for our meeting next meeting… Mr. Filocci, I have never thought of those.”

If she had had any true feelings for him, then she must be a young girl who was in love, and always
dreamed and fancied about the next meeting with the prince. But she didn’t, so she had never thought
of those.

Although Cayne was a foreigner, yet he was quite educated on the Chinese culture.



After hearing her words, suddenly, there was a light smile on his beautiful face, but it made one’s heart
feel depressed.

Cayne’s eyes moved slightly, looking at the ceiling above and landing on Grace, he smiled, “Your
answer was really gentle yet… yet cruel.”

“I admit that my acquiescence for Mr. Filocci to show up my dorm at that time,” Grace said, Cayne’s
darkened eyes brightened again. But the next moment, his expectation was utterly dissipated, “My
acquiescence for your coming to eat late night snack in my dorm was because I was expecting your
tips.”

“You… You’re cruel enough.” Cayne left this sentence and left hurriedly.

A gaze landed on her. Grace looked through the crowd. Leon Lo was standing in the crowd
conspicuously. Leon looked at Grace and nodded at her, then turned around to chase Cayne.

Grace took a look at Caden, “I am going to the bathroom.” The moment she left, she closed her eyes…
She understood Leon’s look, as though Leon was showing his respect. Leon also understood her.

At the door of the bathroom, she kept washing her face over and over again. As for the makeup on the
face… Let it go to hell!

“Come with me.” Her arm was suddenly grabbed by someone. Grace looked back and her expression
changed slightly, pulling that arm off her body and stepping backward. She distanced herself with that
person, “Master Cordon, how are you.”

“Grace, come with me!” Franklin Cordon wanted to grab her hand again.

Grace suddenly felt that everything that happened today was ridiculous… What day was it? Was this
an unkind feast?



The murderer Grace attended an unkind feast?

One man after another… She must have chosen the wrong day to go out.

“Master Cordon, how come you have so much time. There were many girls out there. I am too old to go
through these. So, Master Cordon, please show your mercy and let me go. I can’t afford to participate
in your game.”

Perhaps it was because of the business with Cayne and now Franklin… Grace just felt extremely tired.

“Grace, Come with me! I will be nice to you!” Franklin grabbed Grace’s arm regardless.

“Let go! Master Cordon! Let go!”

“Grace, Grace, don’t move, please don’t move. I know I was an asshole… I don’t care whether you are
a murderer or not, whether you are like what they said. Grace, I, I…”

“Shut up!” Grace suddenly shouted fiercely to stop Franklin’s following words. No matter what he said,
she wouldn’t want to listen!

“Okay, I will shut up. But you have to come with me. We will find a small town and live a normal life
quietly. Grace, you are one I love.”

Franklin’s eyes reddened.

Grace looked aside and closed her eyes, when she opened them again, a trace of resolution flashed
across,

“Master Cordon. Let me tell you something, you want me to be with you? Heh, who are you in
comparison to Caden? You think I will abandon a much richer guy and choose you instead? I am not
stupid, and I know how to choose.”



Her red lips moved.

Franklin’s feet were shaken, he looked at the woman in front of him, telling those heartless words, “You
are…”
