Chapter 195 The Phone is Power off
Caden didn’t say another word, cut off the contact with Mr. Garcia and dialed Grace’s phone number.
But no one answered. He frowned, called James’ House and it didn’t connect. In the end, he tried Jafar
James’ cell phone.
The call was connected right away, “Mr. Shaw?”
“Is Grace with you?” Caden wasn’t in the mood for chitchatting, all he cared about was finding Grace’s
whereabouts.
“Grace?” Jafar asked surprisingly, “She was here but she has just left.”
Caden said while thinking, “Left? For how long? Who was with her?”
“It was just a while ago, let me see. Well, about ten minutes. Miss Su drove the car and they left
together. Is everything okay, Mr. Shaw? What happened? Is Grace okay?” Jafar stood up nervously
and asked Caden on the other end of the phone.
Caden pulled a long face after hearing what he said, answered politely, “Really appreciate it, Mr.
James.”
He hung up the phone right after and dialed Gloria’s cell.
After a busy tone, a robotic female voice was heard, “Sorry, the phone you have dialed is power off.”
He looked dignified, refused to believe what he heard and kept redialing. But the result was the same
as before.
Caden became more and more worried because Gloria’s cellphone couldn’t get through.
Maybe Gloria’s phone ran out of battery or out of service. But situation like this never happened since
she started working for him.
He squeezed his phone angrily and turned around suddenly. Exhaled a cold breath, he approached
Sam the old butler, “What did grandpa want?”
Sam heard part of the conversation because he was right next to Caden just now. He assumed
something was going on, but…
“I don’t follow, Mr. Shaw.” Sam asked with a puzzled look.
Caden sneered, “Grandpa getting sick was such a coincidence.”
“How can you say something so unfilial?” Sam said in shock.
Caden didn’t want to start up an argument, asked while he squinted, “Where is she?”
“Who are you referring to as ‘she’?”
“Still playing dumb?” Caden stared at Sam as he stooped because of his old age, “Tell me what
grandpa did to her!”
“This was just a big misunderstanding, Mr. Shaw. The old master is still in ICU…”
“Oh really? What a coincidence! Right after grandpa fell sick, Grace went missing.”
“My apologies Mr. Shaw, I see that you are worried about Ms. James. I overheard what you said on the
phone. Didn’t Mr. James mention that she had just left? So she should be on her way back. Please
don’t worry and wait in patience. Ms. James will probably be back soon.”
Caden became more impatient, “I don’t have time to waste, so listen carefully. ‘Ms. James’ is Grace
James, my wife! It is written on the paper when we got married, she is Mrs. Shaw!”
If I hear Ms. James come from your mouth one more time, I will make your life miserable. I don’t care
how much grandpa adores you!”
“So now, please tell me where my wife Grace Shaw is.” Gloria never turned off the phone unless she’s
on the plane. She knew him well, so her phone was always on.
But for the first time, her phone was off!
Grace never called him or mentioned going to James’ house. She went there without telling him, but
now the only person with her Gloria’s phone was off. If grandpa weren’t sent to ICU, or if Caden didn’t
see through his lies, Caden wouldn’t be able to see the connections.
Grace went missing, The James Group, grandpa… what a coincidence!
The whole James family could be on grandpa’s side by now!Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
