Chapter 59 What Had She undergone for the Last Three Years?
In Grace’s ward, Caden looked at the woman in bed who was checked over by Humbert.
“It’s not serious,” Humbert said, “but you can’t torture her anymore as she had a tough day today.”
Humbert hissed, “You have moved to a new level in terms of torturing people, haven’t you?”
What an obvious taunt.
But Caden didn’t shoot him with a cold glare.
Hehe. Lucky him today.
Anyway, he should grasp this rare opportunity and tease his best friends as it was hard for him not to
angrily retort.
“Dude, tell me what did you do to her after I left.”
Swoosh!
Caden shot him with a glower, making his breath hitch. “Fine…I respect your secret.” Humbert said in a
fake girly tone, “Oh my god! I’m scared.”
Humbert’s weird tone made Caden’s features darkened. He narrowed his eyes on Humbert. “You can
leave now.”
“Crap! Don’t you ever think I’m always at your service so that you can kick me away when I’m not in
need. Caden Shaw! How ruthless you are!”
Caden sighed, “Just go home, okay? You look so worn out.” He raised his arm to see his wristwatch.
“Don’t you have to check over the patients tomorrow? Little time for sleep.”
Well…It was Caden’s sudden tenderness. Nobody but Humbert could recognize Caden’s tenderness,
though it was fleeting warmth.
It was said that Caden was ruthlessly tough and arrogant, but only his dudes could recognize his
tenderness in disguise.
Humbert suddenly shifted his eyes to Grace as a crazy thought came into his mind. His eyes roamed
over Caden…What the fuck?
Caden’s tenderness?
Caden’s tenderness?
He also spared it to Grace?
“You…” Humbert choked on his words.
“What?”
“Just don’t torture her.” Humbert hid the crazy thought in mind.
Because he knew Caden too well. Caden was born to be rebellious and arrogant, so he couldn’t tell
Caden that Caden had a crush on Grace.
Otherwise…he’d be doomed.
Arrogant as Caden was, he wouldn’t take it that he got Grace, whom he loved, locked in the prison for
three years.
Never would he.
Humbert knew him too well.
Or maybe it was just a wrong moment of spur.
“Don’t torture her anymore… If her broken body suffers, she’ll go to the hell.
If you really hate her so bad that you want her to suffer, you have to ensure she’s alive, right?”
Humbert thought he had said what a friend should say, and he waved at Caden. “Well, I’m back home.
I have to get some sleep for tomorrow’s hard work.”
Creepy silence filled the ward again without Humbert’s voice.
Which was not like those night Caden spent alone at home.
Caden sat by Grace’s bed on a chair.
His eyes landed on her forehead.
Finally, he found the scar covered by a band-aid.
Humbert told him that her old scar was covered by the new scar he saw.
Suddenly, he thought about their first meet at Royal Club when her forehead was covered by her bang.
She looked ugly with the bang. He couldn’t understand why did she have such a terrible hairstyle. He
thought the bang is a compulsory hairstyle in the prison, and Grace was get used to it.
His slender finger nudged her bang up to expose the whole scar.
If Humbert was here, he’d say it would be impossible that any women could bear a nasty scar like this
on the face.
His slender finger didn’t touch her scar but slowly fell on her cheek as he ran it down inch by inch.
Her skin was hard and rough, but she was only over twenty. Hardships had left trace on every inch of
her body.
His finger trailed on her trimmed brows. He had to admit that he could find the image of her three years
ago. He caressed the dark circle before rubbing her rough lips…Every inch of her skin told him what
she had been through.
He dipped to her body as he wondered whether he could find scars on her organs.
His cellphone vibrated, and he picked it up. “What’s wrong?”
“President, how to deal with Ruby Carter?”
“Kill her.” Grace was right about him as he was a wolf which was born to slay.
“Yes, sir.”
Kirk Shaw was about to break off the communication.
Suddenly.
“Hang on.”
“What else, President?”
The man glimpsed at the woman sleeping in bed and paused a beat, then he said to Kirk, “Lock her up
alive.”
“…” Kirk was frozen before answering, “Yes, sir.” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Glancing over the woman trembling by his feet, Kirk said to the two bodyguards, “President ordered to
lock her up. Don’t torture her.”
Ruby’s face was pale and she grasped Kirk’s calf. “How could you lock me up? Grace, Grace had
begged for me. How dare you lock me up!”
Kirk explained nothing to her as it was Grace’s beg that saved the bitch from death.
Caden meant to kill her.
“Did, did Grace really beg for me? Did she go to find President Shaw?”
“Get your hands off me.” Kirk was annoyed. “What are you waiting for? Lock her up,” He bellowed at
the two bodyguards.
