I've Been There Before

Chapter 261: Shameless

Grace was stopped, but she did not ask Ladd and the others to drive them out. She lowered her head and glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground. Grace quietly examined her up and down. She could not help but feel that it was ridiculous. Why did this woman have the courage to come to her and plead?

Why did this woman have the confidence to think that she, Grace, would help her?

Grace looked at the beautiful woman kneeling in front of her and said expressionlessly,

“You said that Mrs. James wanted to kill you and your son. It’s a society ruled by law now. Mrs. James doesn’t have the courage to do so, right? I think, lady, you may be tired recently. I suggest you register with the psychiatric department in the hospital. The persecutory delusion could be medically controllable.”

When the woman heard this, her face turned pale, “Grace ...”

“Shut up!” Grace interrupted the woman straightforwardly and shouted, “I haven’t seen you before today. Please call me Mrs. Shaw.”

Behind her, Caden said coldly, “Yeah, you should call her Mrs. Shaw.” Magnetic deep voice sounded faint, but it revealed a tough tone that couldn’t be rejected by others.

Grace was shocked and glanced sideways at the man beside her. However, this glance was like a coquettish glance in the eyes of the man beside her. Caden was bold and silently stretched out his long arm and firmly hugged Grace’s shoulder. He stared at Ladd, pretending not to see the resistance in her eyes.

This was really bitter for Ladd. Ladd thought to himself, “Mr. Shaw, why are you looking at me when you hugged her? I feel uncomfortable being watched like a girl!”

Ladd cursed Caden in his heart.

Caden was wondering if he should drive this annoying old woman away.

This woman brought her son to see Grace, and he could immediately drive them away. But he didn’t do so because he wanted to see what this mistress of Jafar wanted to do.

There was another reason. It was best if this old woman was hard to deal with. If so, Grace would not be able to move away today.

If she can’t move out today, she could move tomorrow.

Tomorrow ... that was tomorrow’s matter!

In any case, Grace will not move away today. He can at least hug and kiss her tonight while she was asleep.

Caden didn’t have the slightest bit of shame. He was a CEO, yet he did shameless things at night. He wasn’t ashamed, but rather proud.

On Weibo, a warm-hearted netizen dropped him a direct message last night,

“Buddy, you are also a true man. How did you offend your wife? Buddy, you have to remember three points. They are all from my experience!

First, the most beautiful, cute, and sexy creature in the world is wife!

Second, the creature in the world that could not be offended is still wife!

The third point is so important that you must remember. You could try your best to take advantage of your wife!”

Caden agreed with this man and deeply believed that the most beautiful woman in the world was Grace. That was right.

The one he couldn’t offend the most was also Grace. That was also true. Now he was miserable! So, it was true. Even if he had offended Master Shaw ruthlessly, he would not be miserable like that.

He agreed to the last point very much!

Thinking of this, Caden held her tight by the shoulder. The distance between them instantly grew closer.

“Mrs. Shaw.” This beautiful woman seemed to tremble in fear. She looked at Grace with a watery gaze, and also at Caden who was beside Grace.

“Mrs. Shaw, my name is Nora. He is Ollie James. I know that it’s impolite of me to barge in like this today, but I have no choice. Please help us. Otherwise, we won’t be able to survive.”

“Mrs. James, she’s gone too far. I know she hates me, but the child is innocent. No matter how much she hates me, she shouldn’t go to Ollie’s school and bully him.

Ollie was still a child. How could Ollie go to school after Mrs. James made trouble in his school?

Mrs. Shaw, I know I’m sorry to Mrs. James, but Ollie is only a child. He is only ten years old. From the time he was born until Mrs. James ran to school and made a scene, he didn’t know he was ...”

Grace listened quietly. She listened to Nora’s words condemning Mrs. James quietly and did not interrupt until she heard that Nora stopped and could not speak those words out. She looked at this woman indifferently and asked, “What’s his identity?

An illegitimate child!

Why didn’t she continue?

She couldn’t help but want to laugh.

“Why don’t you go on?” she asked.

Nora’s eyes instantly turned red as she looked at Grace with an extremely humiliated expression. “The child is still here! Why should Mrs. Shaw be so aggressive? Do you want me to say that in front of the child?”

It seemed like she was bullying Nora ... Grace really chuckled this time.

“Mom! Let’s not beg this bad woman!” On the side, the ten-year-old boy grabbed Nora and said, “Don’t kneel down in front of her. Mom, stand up! Let’s go home! We needn’t beg her! It’s no big deal!”

Nora grabbed her son and said, “But you will be laughed at!”

“I don’t care. I’m not afraid. It’s no big deal.”

Nora hugged the child and cried bitterly.

Grace expressionlessly looked at the mother and the son in front of her, but her eyes were filled with exhaustion. After she returned from Erhai Lake, she had been busy with the business. The mess of the James Group was hard to deal with. She needed to maintain stability inside and protect the company from other companies outside.

To deal with those problems, she had transferred 70% of her former subordinates of the Wei’ai Foundation into the James Group.

Even so, the James Group that seemed to be booming, was a ‘big hole’.

She was so busy in dealing with the ‘hole’ that she was exhausted.

The Shaw Group had given her a hand. However, she didn’t want to owe this man anymore.

“Put away your tears.” Grace glanced at her and said, “If you have something important to say, just say it!” There was no need to act in front of her like this.

“Mrs. Shaw, I beg you to save ...”

“If you continue saying this nonsense, then you can leave now.” She still had a lot to do, so she said, “If you have anything, get straight to the point.”

The impatience in Grace’s eyes and her cold tone made Nora calm down. She didn’t dare to beat around the bush anymore. Nora pulled Ollie to Grace and anxiously said,

“Mrs. Shaw, I don’t have any other intentions. Everything is for the sake of my innocent child. I hope you can let Ollie return to the James family and acknowledge his identity.”
