“Your father has a bastard for a long time”...
Grace was shocked. This time, she was truly shocked.
She looked at Mrs. James … The James family ... Good for them!
She had long deserted her family name, James, hadn’t she?
“Little Grace, I’m begging you. Please, please!” Mrs. James cried.
Grace only felt funny. Actually, she really laughed out loud. As she laughed, tears run down her cheeks.
“Little Grace?” Mrs. James blinked her eyes. She couldn’t understand her daughter, who was laughing
and crying at the same time. “You …”
In front of Mrs. James, Grace’s laughter grew louder and louder. In the end, tears came out of her eyes.
She squatted on the ground and covered her belly with her arms. She waved her hand at Mrs. James
and said, “You’ve won me a smile today. Mrs. James, thank you.”
Mrs. James widened her eyes, which were filled with disbelief!
She, she, she … “Grace, how have you changed so much!” Mrs. James looked sadly at her daughter,
who was laughing so hard and having an ache on the tummy. She asked sadly, “How can you take our
tragedy as a joke?”
Grace couldn’t control her laughter. But why couldn’t these damn tears stop?
Looking at this, Caden felt like a knife piercing his heart. To Mrs. James, Grace was laughing. However,
to him, Grace was forced to show her bloody flesh in front of everyone.
Mrs. James had cut Grace to pieces, while Grace could only laugh out loud so that no one would notice
her wounds.
In an instant, Caden’s heart crawled with regret and self-blame … Mrs. James was the one who hurt
Grace, but he was the culprit who sent her to hell.
For a moment, he wanted to let her go.
But … he suddenly stretched out his long arm and pulled Grace into his embrace. He held her tightly
and said, “I’m sorry, Grace. Grace, I’m sorry.” He repeated it over and over again. Grace listened to his
apology in his arms, but she felt nothing. Warmth? Understanding? No. Nothing.
She reached out her hands and pushed him away, but Caden tightly locked her in his embrace. The
man buried his face in her neck and whispered beside her ear, “I’m sorry, Grace. Grace, I’m sorry. I’m
sorry. I’m sorry.” Blood flashed through his eyes. He could say sorry ten thousand times. He could even
die, but he couldn’t live without Grace. “I’m sorry. I won’t let you go,” he said. What he was thinking
was, “I’m sorry, I can’t bear to lose you”.
Grace was shocked. Her body stiffened as her lips began to tremble unconsciously. “Mr. Shaw,” she
closed her eyes and said, “I don’t want your apology. Please let me go.”
Endless exhaustion filled her heart.
Mrs. James looked at the man and the woman hugging each other in front of her in surprise. She
wanted to pull Grace near her and beg her to save her son. However, Grace and Caden were
extremely close. She looked at them, not knowing how to make Grace listen to her.
Kern crossed his arms around his chest as he watched what was happening indifferently.
Grace’s excitement—her collapse, her despair … All her feelings had nothing to do with him!
He landed his gaze on Caden’s face, which was somewhat similar to his own. Jealousy almost
engulfed him.
Why you?
Why must it be you?
Why couldn’t it be me?
He watched. He thought. He pondered. He fell silent … “If I can’t get your love, then please give me
your hatred at least,” he said to himself.
He took a deep look at Grace and Caden, who were hugging tightly with love and hatred. But in their
world, they only had each other. Kern’s gaze went cold. Darkness filled his eyes.
“Caden, will you, please, go to hell?
Grace, please, hate me, okay?” he muttered to himself.
Kern was born in the Shaw family. He had got Shaw blood. Even though he didn’t like it, he had to
admit that he was the same ruthlessness as the Shaws.
Grace was his cure, but also his poison. Kern covered his left chest with his hand. His thin lips moved
as he slowly put on a bloodthirsty smile. “Grace, my heart used to be black. But now, I don’t even have
a heart anymore because of you.”
He turned around and went upstairs directly. He didn’t want to watch the farce behind him. It was as if
everything happened downstairs was unfamiliar. It had nothing to do with him.
Bang!
Mrs. James looked at the man and woman in front of her. She was a total outsider now. She gritted her
teeth fiercely and knelt down heavily to Grace. “Please save your brother, little Grace. I’m getting down
on my knees! Please! You can ask anything from me! Payne is your brother. I gave birth to both of you!
For the sake of your brother, and for the sake of the brother who once loved you, please save his life.
Only you can save him now. If you don’t, he can only die.”
Well, well.
How great the responsibility!
Grace looked at Mrs. James, who was kneeling in front of her, with a complicated gaze … Such a
heartless woman. Such “beautiful” words. Such great responsibility!
If she didn’t save Payne, Payne could only die. If Payne died, she would be the one who killed her own
brother!
This was exactly what Mrs. James meant.
Grace looked at Caden, who refused to let her go whatever happened. Then, she turned to look at Mrs.
James, who was kneeling in front of her and begging her with her life … She felt like being surrounded
with wolves and tigers.
She was getting more and more exhausted.
“All of you,” she said with her head lowered, with her hoarse and raspy voice almost inaudible. Her
throat was dry and painful. Despite the pain, she moved her throat and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
She seemed to have taste blood, saying, “All of you are pushing me.”
Carol was just an innocent little girl, but at this moment, she seemed to have understood the despair of
her boss. After all, they had been working together for three years.
Grace didn’t say anything, but Carol felt that if things continued, her boss would die right here in front of
her.
She was scared. She jumped out with a broom, like a heroic masked superman. She said, “You guys!
Don’t push her anymore!
Boss is also a woman in flesh and blood!”
She waved her broom randomly and landed it on Mrs. James the first time, “You! Go away! You’re a
bad person! Memory Inn doesn’t welcome you!”
Mrs. James didn’t expect to be hit. She said, “Bad girl, stop!” Carol seemed to be crazy as she slapped
the broom on Mrs. James nonstop. “I’ll kill you, you bad guy! I’ll beat you to death! You deserve this!
Why are you pushing her so hard?!”
Mrs. James was helpless against Carol, who had gone crazy. She dodged and pounced towards
Grace, “Little Grace, I am your mother. You must stop this crazy girl … Ah!”
Before she could finish her sentence, she fell to the ground like a dog.
When Caden saw Mrs. James rush over, he quick held onto Grace and retreated her to the side. Mrs.
James didn’t even manage to touch Grace’s clothes before she staggered and fell.
“Little Grace?” After Mrs. James fell, she still couldn’t believe what had happened. She raised her head
and looked at Grace, “How did you end up like this?” She glared at Grace with reproach and
resentment, as if she was blaming her...
“You...” Grace’s expression was a little strange. Her face was extremely ruddy. Ingemar also felt
strange. Was it hot in the room?
The next second, he heard Caden’s heart-wrenching shout, “Grace!”
“Hurry! Take her to hospital!”
Mrs. James was dumbfounded. She quickly got up and chased after him, “Little Grace …”
The man holding Grace suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at Mrs. James and gritted his
teeth, saying, “If you dare to take another step forward, Payne will die this second!”
