I've Been There Before

Chapter 205 Many Mistakes

He darted at Kirk who was still kneeling down in front, “Why changed the documents? Are you the accomplice of Sam? Tell me, where is she?”

Where was she, that was what he wanted to know the most!

“I… I don’t know where she is. I… was just in a moment of weakness.”

“Enough!” The man shouted, massaging between his eyebrows, “I only care about one thing, where is she.” As for Kirk, Caden showed his indifference, “And you, it’s done. You have been following me for a long time, just leave.”

“Boss!” Kirk looked at Caden in disbelief, “You can punish me however you want, but don’t kick me away!”

“Ladd, take him away.” Caden rubbed his temple tiredly. He hadn’t slept for these days, and he had no energy for anyone unrelated.

“Bo…”

“Kirk, not now!” Ladd stepped forth, “Don’t make any more troubles for the boss. Boss almost went crazy after Madam left. If you really want to stay with the boss, then find Madam for the boss. Leave hurriedly when the boss is still lenient.”

Kirk gritted his teeth and left unwillingly.

Caden’s head was about to explode. Ladd walked to him: “Boss, take some rest.” If the boss kept on being like this, he would soon fall down!

“Let’s go!”

“To where?”

“Find Kern!”

He didn’t believe that it was a coincidence that Kern showed up at the warehouse!

Thinking of the actions of Kern at that time, Caden did not trust that Kern went there to pick a fight with him, then said nothing and left.

When he got rid of Kern, Grace must have already left this city!

The only explanation was that Kern showed up in order to buy time for that woman!

The black Bentley roared out and dashed on this prosperous city road until it arrived at the door of an independent villa. Caden got off the car, Ladd and the others followed behind. They all showed up at the door of the villa.

He reached out to press on the doorbell.

“Who are you looking for?”

“Your master.”

“Wait a moment please.”

Before the butler finished his words, he was whizzed by a hurricane in front of him, “Sir, you can’t break in like that, you’re intruding private property…”

“Ask your master to sue me then.”

“…”

What kind of person was this, the butler said in his heart.

On the spiral staircase, a figure appeared, “Look at who it is. Mr. Shaw, you must be here for me, am I right?”

Caden held his steps all of a sudden, raised his head to look at the second floor, “Kern, you showed up at the warehouse deliberately, right?”

“Yes, that was intentional.” Kern’s answer was provoking as well.

Caden sneered, “Good that you admit, where is she? Give her to me.”

“Who? Grace? That’s your wife. How would I know where she is even when you don’t know about it?”

“Kern, let’s put this straight. You and the old master were playing me like a fool? The incident four years ago, it must be related to you and the old master, am I right?

“Even if I don’t want to admit that, but one thing cannot be changed. You share the same blood as I do!”

“The old master still wanted you to be back to the Shaw family. But if you, Kern, you want me to call you brother, that would only happen in the dream!

“You ended up hating me. What exactly did you want to prove in the incident four years ago? To prove that you are better than me?

“Wallis Venus was my misjudgment. She is a malicious woman with a sweat mouth. She bribed a few gangsters and wanted to take away Grace’s virginity, so that Grace would feel too shameful to see anyone. However, she didn’t expect that someone else would be waiting to hunt her down as well.

“Right after she bribed the gangsters, you paid them with a much higher price, asking those gangsters to betray Wallis and take her virginity away accordingly. After that, you blamed everything on Grace. This was done by you and the old master, am I right?

“Just like Wallis, you didn’t expect that the old master hinted Sam, the butler of the Shaw family, telling the latter that the Shaw family would not allow a woman who had lost her virginity to enter their place. And Sam did murder Wallis and blamed everything on Grace. I am afraid that the fake evidences and all the coincidences were done by the old master intentionally, am I right?”

“Well? Then tell me, why would the old master frame Grace? How would that benefit him?” Kern looked calm, but his heart was indeed stirring up waves.

Had Caden figured everything out?

“Heh, benefit? Do you think the old master would do something that was not beneficial to him? You think he was a philanthropist?” He sneered, “I didn’t understand this either in the first place. Grace James, how would she hinder the benefit of the Shaw family?

“But do you know what I heard the old master saying in the hospital yesterday?”

“He said, he had told me since I was a child. If there was a woman in the world that would affect my emotions, then do not hesitate and just destroy her with your own hands.”

Speaking of this, Caden snorted lightly. Only he knew that he was insanely furious!

“This was the reason he frame Grace! He had already noticed Grace’s effect on me, but I still live in ignorance pathetically! I even put her in that place! She shouldn’t have gone through what she had experienced!”

He clenched his fists, more and more tightly. He was enraged, but trying his best to suppress the fury!

“The old master did that for this reason?” Kern was also surprised. For this reason only, the old master almost destroyed an extremely outstanding woman?

Caden looked at Kern sarcastically: “Of course he wouldn’t do it deliberately, but everyone gave him a chance.

“Wallis Venus did, Sam did, you did, and even I.. gave him the chance!”

If it weren’t Wallis, who wanted to take away Grace’s virginity and destroy her pride, then Kern wouldn’t have the chance to bribe the gangsters against Wallis. Wallis would not have lost her virginity. If Wallis did not lose her virginity, the old master wouldn’t have the chance to hint Sam to kill Wallis and blame it on Grace.

As for Caden… he thought he hated that woman, he thought that woman deserved what all these. He wouldn’t dig into it, wouldn’t spend any energy on it to prove that woman’s innocence. “The evidence was certain.” anyway, wasn’t it?

Kern was shocked. Before this, he thought the incident that year was just a tragedy due to his improvised prank. He had long believed that Grace was implicated, so he felt that he was guilty. However, he shouldn’t be punished because of the guilt. For Grace, he just felt slightly guilty, but more of sympathy.

As for Wallis Venus… Wallis wasn’t a good person anyway, let alone he knew that Wallis’ death was done by Sam.

But at this moment, the monstrous billows surged up high in his heart… He just realized that the woman was more than being implicated. She was the one to take all the responsibility since the beginning!

Four years ago, he just knew by accident that Wallis wanted to act against Grace, and he took this opportunity to bribe the gangsters to betray Wallis and took away her virginity… So that he could affect Caden’s emotions and judgement, making the latter lose the gamble at that time. In this way, he could seize the chance to replace Caden.

The truth behind the competition… was a bloody Grace!

She suffered through all these, falling from the sky to the ground. At this moment, Kern had a strong wish to learn about that woman’s thoughts!

“How do you know about all these? Even if Sam and I played some tricks, you might find it. But what about the old master? I don’t believe that the old master would forget to wipe his ass clean, giving you the chance to catch him.” Kern looked at Caden coldly.

Since they had been frank to each other, and Caden had told most of it to Kern, he wouldn’t mind telling the latter more:

“Can you still contact the old master and his men?”

A grim light flashed across Kern’s eyes, a thought came across his mind. He immediately picked up the phone to call that familiar number: “Sorry, the number you have dialed is turned off…”

Kern didn’t believe it. He glanced at Caden and called the old master’s most trusted subordinates, but failed to contact any.

“You imprison the old master?”

Caden didn’t answer and continue:

“This is the Shaw family’s business. You don’t need to worry. Since you have already known what you need to know. Kern, tell me where she is?”

“I don’t know.”

Caden looked at Kern with his narrowed eyes, contemplating for an entire minute. Caden stood up and walked out without staying any longer… It didn’t matter what Kern said, or whether he really didn’t know about it. Nothing depended on words.

Since he couldn’t find the answer he wanted here, then no need to waste time. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

After leaving the mansion and got in the car, the man suddenly looked grim: “Watch him.”

“No problem.”

Did Kern really know nothing just because he said so?

“Boss, what about the gangsters?”

“Leave them alive first, we don’t have time for those flies.”

“Where are we going now?”

“The James family.” The man’s eyes, dropping down for another degree, were as sharp and cold as the eagle.

The car arrived at the James family.

Jafar James welcomed Caden in with a big smile: “Mr. Shaw.”

“Do you know why I come here lastly when Grace was missing?”

“What… Grace was missing?”

Caden revealed trace of annoy between his eyebrows: “Jafar, we were both experienced businessmen. Who’s pretending and who’s being frank, we all know it well.”

“I come the James family lastly not because you guys were not suspicious. It was just because of the word ‘James’ only.”

Jafar suddenly went panic… This tone and attitude, things might not be able to end well.

However, he knew clearly that once he confessed anything he knew, the consequence would be more dangerous.

“Mr. Shaw, are you saying that we hide Grace?” Jafar stretched out three fingers: “I, Jafar James, swear to God that I did not hide Grace! What’s more, we know nothing about where she went! If any of my words were lies, then we do not deserve to be parents and the James family will end up going bankrupt!”

Such a malicious oath! Caden knew too well that what Jafar cared about most was the James family. Now he made an oath with the James family then it was very likely that Jafar knew nothing about where Grace went.
