Chapter 56 Sell Myself to Bail Ruby out
The passage led to the lift. With great fear, it seemed the passage was covered by nails.
Grace silently followed Kirk.
The lift was ahead of them. Kirk stopped for a second and gestured Grace to go ahead alone as if he
was a gentleman. “Please, Miss Grace.”
“You…” Grace hesitated. She was not a warm-hearted girl, but she glanced over Kirk’s icy-cold face.
“Don’t you come with me?”
“President only want to meet you.”
Kirk still grabbed Ruby’s arm in his hand. She hastily shouted as the lift door was about to close,
“Grace! Grace! Please help me! I know you are too kind to leave me in the hell, right?”
Kirk annoyingly shot her a glare, and turned to Grace. “Miss Grace, you owe her nothing.”
There was no need to bother his president for the bitch.
Grace said before the door closed, “I know.”
I know I don’t owe her. I want to see the man I hate not for her.
Grace didn’t want to explain anything to anyone.
When the door opened again, she took a deep breath and exhaled loudly. He noticed her deathly-pale
face reflected on the wall of the lift from the corner of her eyes.
Perhaps, in others’ opinion, she only came to beg a man she knew about for another, which was not a
big deal.
But, in terms of Grace, it was much more painful… than kneeling on the ground.
“President Shaw, here I am.” For some reason, the lights in the hall were out, except some dimmed
lights. On the cowhide sofa near the French window sat a man, his arm languidly laid on the armrest.
Between his fingers, his smoking cigarette was snapped out.
She kind of flinched.
She instinctively moved backward.
In the meantime, there came a small laugh. “Have a seat.”
“…”
The man in the sofa pointed to the sofa across from his.
“So, you’re not here to beg for others?”
“…Yes.” Grace slowly moved to the sofa and sat down.
“You sit there just because my order?” The man asked.
Obviously, he was playing her.
“You’re my president, and I have to obey your order.”
The man thought he heard a joke…Obey his order?
Who?
She? Grace James? The daughter of family James?
Caden suddenly propped his head against his arm laying on the armrest, his posture languid, his side
face handsome, his eyes unwaveringly landing on Grace’s face.
The clock ticked away the seconds, Grace started to get fidgeted. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
But the man’s gaze was locked on her face. With dim light, she couldn’t see his expression clearly.
From time to time, she looked up into his eyes, only to find his intenseness.
Finally, she was too anxious to stay silent with him, and she tilted her head up, saying, “President
Shaw, I’m here to beg for someone…”
She hoped he can say something with her reminder.
The man languidly said, “I know, and I was waiting for you to say something.”
Grace paused a beat, digesting his words…It turned out that the president was waiting for her to start
talking first.
What a misunderstanding…so awkward.
She didn’t know she was blushed scarlet, even her neck was painted in crimson.
The man across from her took in her every move.
For some reason, there’s something burning inside him.
“I want to beg for Ruby Carter.”
“for what?” His deep voice got a bit husky.
“Could you please let go of her?”
The man quirked his lips with sarcasm in her eyes. “My poor Grace. She had hurt you before, and what
you do just leaves her another chance to hurt you again. How do they describe a person like you…
oh…Mother Maria? How come you are such a hypocritical? Aren’t you the perfect daughter of family
James?”
Grace lowered her head, hiding bitterness in her eyes…Perfect daughter of family James? Who? She?
“I don’t know the girl you talk about.”
The man suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at her…Did she just deny her past?
“Are you sure you want me to release Ruby Carter, who almost killed you?”
His voice went cold. “It’s none of my business if you want to be the Mother Maria, but how much can
you pay for it? Kneeling?”
He smiled sarcastically after bellowing coldly, “Grace, you know your kneeling was worthless for me.”
“I know,” Grace replied hoarsely and tilted her head up.
“Just take away my body.”
Caden doubted that he might temporarily lose his hearing. “What? Say it again.”
“I want to spend the whole night with you.”
“Are you saying you want me to fuck you?”
“…Yes.”
Although Caden’s words were too dirty for Grace, she nodded.
Burying her head in her chest, she’s waiting for Caden’s choice.
The man unwaveringly glared holes into her lowering head as unassuming anger coursed through his
body.
He suddenly rose to his feet.
Grace instantly snapped out of her thoughts as she was grabbed by Caden tightly.
“President Shaw, let go of me.”
The man’s cold voice sounded after Grace’s screaming.
“Don’t you remember you say you want me to fuck you?” Fury was hidden in his deep voice. “Want to
be a bitch? Fine. I’ll give you what you want.”
Ruthless and hard, his kiss weas casted on her lips, just like punishment.
After the kiss, he suddenly tilted his head, narrowed his eyes as words bit out of him. “I ask you one
last time. Do you really want to humiliate yourself for an evil bitch?”
“Please.”
Caden laughed coldly. “Grace, you are such a pussy who doesn’t deserve anyone’s mercy.”
Grace’s trembling eyelashes betrayed her bitterness…Caden, you know nothing.
You don’t know how it feels when you’re responsible for one’s death. You don’t know how it feels when
Leona died for her in the cold scary prison.
Caden, you’ll never know how it feels when your life is a living hell.
