I've Been There Before Chapter 213 Fascinating

Kern’s eyes focused on Grace standing in front of him.

He knew well from Grace’s eyes that she was some of puzzled now; that fell within his expectation. He
sneered in his heart…it was undoubtful that she totally forgot him.

Actually, he was not a normal member in his family.

To such a big and wealthy one as the Shaw’s family, he was given birth by another woman and could
not be announced to the public. This was a real scandal for his family.

As a result, he felt embarrassed and in a dilemma from the beginning.

Anyway, who would like to be such a child?

Everyone was eager to be the offspring of the Shaw’s family; on the contrast, Kern hated it so much
that he dreamed to be the child from a common family.

Grace never knew Kern. It was true that she did not keep him in her mind. Even she had kept, it should
be merely a notorious name “Kern Lo”.

However, he memorized Grace deeply.

At a very young age, Kern did not understand why he did not have daddy with him. Later when he grew
up, his mother took him to the outside of a big house; they hided behind a tree and his mother pointed
to a passing car to say, “Kern, you grandpa, daddy and younger brother live in the house.”

He could not understand why all of his family lived there, but nobody remembered him. Finally, he knew
the meaning of an illegal child.



In his childhood, Kern usually hided to watch the big house. His family walked in and out every day;
and there lived another bright and unrestrained girl who always followed a boy of the same age with
Kern. This girl was Grace.

In that year, Grace was caught in prison before, which he did not care about at all. This was a joke to
him. Some time he even believed that, since she belonged to Caden Shaw, it was great she got some
accident.

Kern almost forgot Grace after she was in prison. Until she got released and met him once again, she
had changed too much and totally lost her smile and confidence.

At that moment, he was some of guilty, but only some of… just three years ago, all secrets were
disclosed. After she was released, Kern saw how stubborn Grace was from those happenings. He
started to have so much interests in Grace that he helped her escape away.

But to his surprise, Grace went away and neither he could not find her.

Kern cleared his throat and said, “My name is Kern Lo. The receptionist told me you are the owner. I
suppose you will would like to get the information of guest.” Then he had some tea and continued,
“What tea it is? Very good.”

“…” Grace was stunned and said nothing. After a while, she got to know what he was wondering. She
laughed at herself in her mind. Every day she just sat on the recliner and had some tea; living such life
was too easy for her so that she could not think about an answer to a question quickly.

Kern watched her look with great appreciation. He tried to get some brightness and confidence from
her face as there was at her young age. As a result, it was regretful that he did not get it anymore.

Even as this, he started to find Grace’s dullness too fascinating.



Kern drank some more tea and said, “This is really good.”

He was born handsome; now he was still extremely charming even in casual wear instead of formal
suits on working days. He had thin and light pinky lips which were touching slightly her tea cup…all he
was doing, reminded Grace to say, “You got my cup.”
