I've Been There Before

Chapter 284 Ugly Truth

Vivian came full of anger, and after knowing the reason, she became more irascible.

Caden had ruined the once glorious Grace. But it was inconceivable that she should give up such a precious opportunity for Caden, the one who tortured her to death.

Vivian cursed in her heart. She decided to convince Grace. Even if that bastard Caden had poisoned Grace, she would still pull Grace out of his trap!

But now, Vivian was dejected.

She didn’t how to persuade Grace.

It wasn’t Caden who had poisoned Grace, it was Grace herself.

No one could save Grace except herself.

Vivian followed Grace and entered Wei’ai Foundation. From the beginning, it was said that Wei’ai Foundation did not live up to its name. Later, it took on its own characteristics and became unique. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Vivian saw another Grace that no one else could see.

Although Grace was considered to be Master James’s favorite granddaughter, Vivian understood what did Grace need most as they had been working for a long time.

Vivian wished that she didn’t know Grace at all. Then she could brutally disregard Grace’s needs and pull her out of the cage she had created for herself.

Damn it!

Why did this happen?

Vivian looked deeply at Grace with her eyebrows knitted tightly. Finally, she asked heavily, “He will recover one day. What are you going to do then?”

What could Grace do?

Would Grace still lie to herself?

Grace was just using Caden’s sick as an excuse. Then when he got better, how could Grace find other excuses?

What would she do?

It was Vivian’s subtext.

She knew that Grace understood.

Grace tried her best to conceal her emotions, but she still subconsciously clenched the teacup that Caden had stuffed into her palm.

“Control yourself. Master James has passed away.”

Vivian said with a hard heart. She knew it was cruel.

But she would rather be cruel to Grace now than see her suffering later.

Grace was born to glory. But she tasted the hardest.

She shouldn’t have to go through this.

Fate should not interweave all suffering into Grace.

“Master James had already passed away. Stop fantasizing, Grace.”

“That’s all fake.” Vivian clenched her teeth and continued.

Vivian would rather hurt Grace herself than Caden. She was afraid that Grace would go crazy.

“You said that he is sick. He is not normal. You also acknowledged that the current Caden is not the real Caden. Grace, the real Caden wouldn’t act like this. You know that, don’t you?”

Vivian’s face became pale. Her heart was trembling. The expression of Grace made Vivian want to cry. However, Vivian would rather let Grace suffer now than she could not bear disillusionment later on.

“I, I’m just taking care of him and wait for him to recover …”

“Wait for him to recover? Then what?” Vivian asked aggressively.

Grace slowly raised her head, “you’ll see.”

No one noticed Grace was becoming strange, including Vivian.

Grace stood up, “I will go to the office in two days.” The implication was to see Vivian off.

Vivian was unwilling to accept it and shouted, “Grace! Those are all your illusions! Everything he does now is fake! Do you really understand? Please, stop dreaming! When Master James was around, you went all out to please him, and you worked hard to achieve everything. Once Master James praised you, you would be on cloud nine for days. Grace, people know you are incredible, but how do you get your success? You worked ten times as hard as anyone else! But, apart from giving you Wei’ai Foundation, what did Master James do? You flattered him, you worked day and night for his praise, and what did he give you? Did he get you what you wanted? Did you get what you wanted?”

Grace felt a burning pain and abruptly put down the teacup, “Of course! I got all I want! If I work hard and if I pay, then I can get it for sure! I did it. Grandpa treated me well!” Grace was in a fury that her voice trembled.

“You are lying to yourself. Master James’s praise has a price. Did you really get it?” Vivian asked.

“I did! Grandpa thought highly of me! Vivian, I’m very, very tired now. Please leave now!”

Their dispute attracted Caden. He came out of the bedroom.

Grace’s eyes were red and was about to cry.

Vivian was left in the living room.

Caden rushed over and pushed Vivian, “Get out! Get, out! You bad person! You bullied Grace!”

Vivian’s eyes were also red. She knew that she had really pissed Grace off. Vivian glared at Caden. A bad person?

“Am I a bad person?” Vivian laughed miserably, “Caden, if anyone in this world treats Grace the worst, then it’s you!”

Vivian turned around and left.

Her high heels stepped on the ground. She was on the run.

Outside Grace’s house.

Vivian cried.

“How can you say that to her! You know her weak point!” Vivian raised her hand and slapped herself.

She glanced at the building behind her and wiped her eyes.

At upstairs, Caden looked at Grace and walked forward, “Grace doesn’t cry.”

Grace slowly raised her head and glanced at the man. Then she turned around and walked into the bedroom with heavy footsteps.

She locked the door.

Caden turned the handle outside the door, “Grace, I’m sorry …”
