I've Been There Before

Chapter 62 What I Don't Want

Humbert successfully proved that he ... really did knew how to give an intravenous drip!

“I had told you guys, I'm a genius, such a simple job like this, how can I not know how to do it? Caden, I'm telling you; it would be condescending for me to be your personal doctor. You can just keep your happy feeling to yourself.”

Humbert suddenly felt exhilarated and raised his eyebrows. Not to mention how suffocating it was just now, Caden’s mouth must had been wiped with puffer fish poison before.

“I will give you a raise.”

At first, the reason Humbert raised his eyebrows and vented out his anger was to disparage Caden, but Caden replied nonchalantly, “I'll give you a raise.”

Humbert did not lack any money ~ if he cared about money, he can just go straight back to the White Group to be the son of a wealthy family, the general manager, and help his father, he can earn lots more there.

“Caden, you're doing it on purpose, I helped you cure your little girlfriend, and you're still deliberately belittling me?"

Because he was feeling furious, Humbert spoke from the heart without even thinking much about it.

Oh, great!

At that instance!

The atmosphere became tense and the air around them was starting to feel stagnant.

“Girlfriend? Who are you talking about?” In a moment, Caden's voice was cold to the bone.

After Humbert said that, he scolded himself for what he had just said. However, when he saw Caden's cold and icy appearance, he turned his gaze to Grace who was sleeping on the sofa.

A surge of annoyance came over him, and he could not keep it in and said it all.

“Who? Isn't that Grace?”

Humbert sneered, “Caden, don't say that she isn't, if she wasn't your girlfriend, why would you care about her life nor death, her fever is none of your business, don't say that you pity her.

Caden Shaw, you know what kind of person you are; I did not know when did President Shaw became so sympathetic,” he said.

Besides, if it wasn't your girlfriend, you will be willing to drive to the hospital in the middle of the night yourself? Like hell you would!"

Gloria felt as if it was a bit inappropriate for her to be here at this moment.

“Ahem ... President Shaw, if everything is fine, I'll go out... first…”

“She'll be left with you here, keep an eye on her. When she wakes up, you'll tell her that she fainted so you got someone you know to have an intravenous drip for her.”

Caden gave an icy expression and gave the order quickly, reaching out and grabbing Humbert's arm, dragging him out, all the way out of the office and to the stairwell.

“Get off! Caden Shaw, I'm warning you, if you don't let me go, I'll beat you up.”

Humbert was then dragged by Caden into a stairwell. When arriving at the stairway, Humbert shouted, so Caden pushed him and said,” You want to fight? OK, come on, let’s fight.”

Seeing that Caden was starting to crack his knuckles, Humbert regret and cursed himself silently, "Damn, who dares to fight with him for real!"

“Hey, let's talk, we're brothers, there's nothing we can't say.”

Caden’s expression was even icier, “Humbert, you know best about everything between me and that woman.”

Humbert knew that Caden was reminding himself not to talk about anything related between Grace and Caden.

“... Then why do you care for her? Does it matter to you?”

Caden's narrowed eyes flashed with indifference, and his thin lips lifted, “Even if it's something I don't want, before I give my permission, her life and death are all in my control.” The coldness in his eyes frightened Humbert.

“In that case, do you understand now, Humbert?’

Humbert looked at Caden and was silent for a while, then he raised his head again, “Caden, do you really think that you hate her that much?”

“She got Wallis killed.”

With just one sentence, Humbert had no words of retort him back.

She got Wallis killed - that was enough to anger Caden.

“Everyone should atone for the mistakes they've done.” Caden said to Humbert aloofly, turned around and pushed the door to leave the stairwell.

...

Downstairs of Royal Club's, a Bentley was parked there, and on the driver's seat, Caden stepped on the gas pedal and drove off.

He then put on the Bluetooth and dialed a number, “Kirk, I'm rushing over now.”

A concise and clear sentence was spoken.

Caden was in a very bad mood, “very” bad!

Humbert, what's wrong with this guy today, kept talking nonsense.

Is Grace his girlfriend?

Ha ha ha!

In the driver's seat, the man's lips overflowed with an ironically dismissive ... he cares about her? That woman? Grace?

So, why would he drive the woman to the hospital all night long?

Caden started to get puzzled.

Although he was driving, but his mind was still pondering and analyzing the answer to this question.

The only explanation was that he did not want to let that woman off so easily yet!

“She got one's life killed. It's too easy for her if it is just only three years.” Arriving at the destination again and stepping on the brakes for a moment, Caden thought of a sentence.

“President Shaw, you're here.” Kirk waited at the door.

It was a warehouse.

“Where is she?” The man got out of the car, moving fast as he asked Kirk, who was beside him.

“She is inside, I'll lead the way.” Kirk did not talk nonsense and was concise, he quickly took Caden and walked deeper into the warehouse.

There was a small room inside the warehouse, Kirk opened the door and said, “President Shaw, she is rebellious and kept making noises, we had no choice, that's why we gagged her. Her hands and legs were also tied up.”

Caden walked into the small room, there was a wretched girl in there, and when she saw Caden come in, a pitiful plea for mercy showed in her beautiful eyes.

Her appearance was really pitiful, if it was a different man, he might really look pity on her.

However, Caden’s handsome face did not move in the slightest, he did not even sit, his fingers pointing randomly.

Kirk immediately understood the signal, and immediately went forward, silently drawing off the cloth head in her mouth.

“Cough, cough ...”

When she was coughing, on the other side, Kirk handed Caden a pair of black leather gloves as he already did this many time. The latter unhurriedly put on the black gloves, even though putting on gloves was just a simple action, but to be done by him, did indeed looked very elegant ... and dangerous.

After the cloth head in her mouth was removed, Ruby relaxed at once. However, because she was gagged for so long, it still made her cough until her face turned red.

A pair of men's feet, appeared in her line of sight. Ruby paused, suddenly, her chin was pinched hard and forced to raise upwards, and she looked into a pair of very dangerous eyes. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“I'm in a terrible mood right now, my patience is kind of thin, so after this, whatever I ask you, you better answer truthfully.”

Ruby’s heart trembled, but the hand on her chin did not show any mercy at all, it was very, very painful, and it caused Ruby's tears to overflow.

“Why are you targeting Grace?”
