Steal my heart novel (Grace James and Caden Shaw)

Chapter 193 Repeatedly Harm

The car arrived at James’ house. Grace got out of the car after Gloria drove the car through the iron

gate of James’ house, “Gloria, you can go back first. I have private conversation with Mrs. James.”

Gloria’s eyes moved, and her gaze fell on Grace’s cold and distant face. She chuckled, “I can’t explain

to President Shaw if I leave you only at James’ house alone.”

Grace’s throat tightened, “You…”

“Let me accompany you.” Gloria closed the car door and walked calmly to Grace’s side. Then, she

stretched out her hand to embrace Grace’s shoulder and lowered her voice with the volume that only

two of them could hear. She talked into her ear, “Don’t worry, I’ve been Caden Shaw’s subordinate for

so long. I can handle everything that I should deal with. Besides, I’m Caden’s subordinate. Do they

dare to lay a finger on me?”

She talked while embracing Grace’s shoulder with a smile and walked forward.

Mrs. James had already come out, “Grace, you’ve come. Huh? Miss Su is also here.”

“Where is the thing?” Grace did not beat around the bush. She straight away asked Mrs. James after

she arrived and entered the house with her.

“What is it?” Mrs. James was slightly stunned.

“The ID card.”

Grace said lightly. She came to James’ house just to get her ID card back. She also took this

opportunity to run away from Caden.

Mrs. James suddenly realized, “Oh, ID card. I put it inside the drawer of my dressing table. I’ll bring it to

you later. Let’s have a cup of hot tea first. It’s such a freezing cold day. Have some hot tea to keep you

warm.”

Mrs. James was not supposed to be perturbed, but she was distracted because she was concerned

about the thing that was going to happen today.

Grace’s eyes fell on Mrs. James’ face again after taking a look at the tea that the maid brought, “I’d

prefer Mrs. James to go upstairs and get me the ID card.”

Mrs. James looked at Jafar James and it seemed like she could not make the decision alone. After the

latter nodded his head, she nodded at Grace, “Okay. I’ll get it for you.”

Mrs. James went back as soon as possible. She lovingly scolded Grace after she took the ID card to

downstairs, “Oh my dearest daughter, you are too hasty to get your ID card back. Why can’t you trust

your own parents? Your dad has spent some time and effort to cover you up and satisfy your request

so that President Shaw won’t notice it. It’s not easy to help you with getting a new identity.”

Mrs. James’ eyes were full of kindness at the moment. People who did not know about the fact would

really think that this is a kind and good mother.

Gloria who stood next to them was feeling complicated.

Leaving aside the other things, Grace was just asking Mrs. James for her ID card, but Mrs. James had

to look at Jafar secretly to ask his opinion.

This was not a family at all!

It is no different from the outsiders.

Grace immediately snatched her ID card from Mrs. James’ hand… She had not been dared to hope for

Mrs. James’ pretentious love and care for a long time. She just felt harsh and ironic when she heard

what Mrs. James said in her ears.

She glanced down at her ID card in her palm. A self-deprecating smile appeared in her eyes.

No wonder Jafar was able to cover her up. The name column on the ID card was written as Grace

Shaw.

She had changed her surname.

She raised her eyes and swept over Jafar coldly after she chuckled and deliberately suppressed the

pain in her heart, “Why the surname must be ‘Shaw’?”

Jafar hesitated. He could not tell her truthfully that a old man told him personally, “Since that woman

has married into the Shaw family, she must be loyal to them for the rest of her life. Just put ‘Shaw’ as

her surname on the ID card then.”

These were the original words from the old man.

Jafar still remembered the coldness under the eyes of the old man when he said that personally after

Jafar asked for his opinion on Grace’s request to get a new ID card for her.

It was doomed from that moment that Grace would not live any longer.

There was no exception for the words from the old man.

The attitude of the old man was very obvious. The Shaw family could accept Grace as their daughter-

in-law, and the title of Madam James since the past generations could also be given to Grace.

However, only Grace that was dead could sit on the throne of Madam James.

Jafar hesitated for a moment. After all, she was his own daughter. This time was different from what

happened a few years ago. Instead, it was equivalent to kill his own daughter by himself.

However, Jafar had made what he thought was the best decision for the James family.

To sacrifice a daughter who was no longer from the James family.

“Grace, do you want to meet those rascals who caused you to get into jail?” Jafar did not answer

Grace’s question, but suddenly brought up the subject of those gangsters.

Did you want to meet? Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Grace lowered her eyes and covered the irony under her eyes… What was the point of meeting them

or otherwise?

Could she turn back the clock?

Could her kidney come back?

Could those dark days never come?

She was not heartless. It just hurt too much instead.

“Oh, darling. That incident has been a scar for Grace. Why do you mention it in front of her so

straightforwardly?” Mrs. James interrupted all of the sudden and walked forward affectionately to pick

up the teacup from the side table.

“Grace, don’t panic. You don’t have to make a decision in a hurry. Just drink some water and take your

time to think about it slowly.

Grace took the tea from her and blocked in front of Gloria naturally with her body, “Gloria, it’s time for

me to take the medicine. My bag is seemed to fall on your car. Can you help me to get it?”

It was not that she was over-concerned. She felt that something was wrong before she went out but

she just could not resist the allure of the ID card.

However, it was her own matter for willing to take a risk and try her luck. Gloria should not share the

risk with her.

She would not let Gloria to get involved in this trouble if she could get out of the house without Gloria’s

help.

Gloria took a deep look at Grace.

Mrs. James was panicked for a moment, but a smile was put on her face in the next second. She took

another cup of tea and quickly handed it to Gloria. “Miss Su, drink some water too. Aren’t you tired of

driving on such a cold day? It’s freezing outside. I can ask the maid to pick the bag up from the car.

There is no need for you to go personally.”

Grace’s lips suddenly pressed tightly, and she was about to take over the cup of tea for Gloria.

However, Gloria had already taken the cup politely and gently sipped in front of Mrs. James, “Thank

you.”

Grace was stunned. She was a little nervous. Anyway, Gloria distrusted the James family more than

she did. Apart from that, as she said, she had been working with Caden Shaw and had dealt with

anything. She was guarded against the James family, and so it was impossible for her to not guard

against this tea. It was certain that Gloria had her own plan.

She held her horses and did not say anything after all.

Mrs. James urged, “Grace, why don’t you drink it too? It won’t be warm once it’s cold.”

Grace heard her words and glanced at the teacup in her hand. No matter what was Gloria’s plan, she

was not interested in drinking the tea that was prepared by the James family. She said lightly, “Never

mind. I don’t like to drink tea that much.” She put down the teacup in her hand and said, “Gloria, let’s

go.”

She said while stood up and looked down at Gloria beside her, “Gloria, what’s the matter?”

Before she could scream out, someone behind her suddenly covered her nose with a handkerchief in

the next second, “Uh! Uh!” She suddenly understood something and looked disappointed at the James

couple before she passed out.

She had one thought before she fainted. Fortunately, she did not stop Gloria from drinking her tea just

now. If there was no any problem with the tea, then it was okay for drinking it. However, it could save

Gloria’s life otherwise.

According to her ‘good father’ that was afraid of Caden, Jafar would not take the risk to kill Gloria after

Gloria fainted before her. He could use many excuses if Gloria was alive. It was a huge possibility that

the cruel and merciless Caden would go into this matter if Gloria was dead.

When she just stood up, she clearly saw that Gloria’s hidden hand was gently made a ‘pinky promise’

even though Gloria seemed like she had fallen into the trick.

Gloria sent a message to her – She would make sure that it was all right.

Since arriving at the James’ house, Grace was very cautious no matter what she ate or used, and even

not to touch it. She did not expect that her biological parents had reached to the point that they did not

even care to cover up even though she was so careful with them.

“What should I do?” Mrs. James nervously looked at the two people who fainted out and pointed to

Gloria. She asked Jafar, “How to deal with her?”

“She is Caden’s person, and she fainted after drinking the tea. Go and call Theo over.”

Although Mrs. James was flustered, she immediately followed what Jafar said.

After Jafar finished speaking, a strong man, who stood behind Grace and used the handkerchief that

was stained with Ether to cover Grace’s mouth just now, had already carried her like a sandbag. After

he put her inside a gunny sack that could fit into an adult, he carried the sack that had a person in it on

his shoulder again.

An old man with the gray hair followed Mrs. James and walked toward Jafar. Jafar pointed to Gloria

who had passed out, “Take her away and create a death that caused by a ‘car accident’.”

Grace still underestimated Jafar’s cruelty, or it should be said that Grace had not inherited Jafar’s brain

that could think of harming people in so many ways.

There was no doubt if Gloria died because of a ‘car accident’.

Mrs. James shivered. She firmly grasped Jafar’s wrist and the blue veins were exposed on the back of

her white hand. There was a little compassion through her eyes.

“Jafar… Do we… Do we really need to do this?”

“Do you think I want to do so?” Jafar pulled out his hair in frustration, “What can I do for now? Outsiders

might think that James family is magnificent, but don’t you know that our James family has come to

make or break period? She was also my daughter. How could I be so callous if I have the choice?”

“But…”

“There are no buts about it! You have to remember that we are doing it for the sake of the James

family! If the James family goes bankrupt, Payne will be nothing! Do you have the heart to see the

James family goes bankrupt and Payne, who was once a superior young master, suddenly descends to

a distressed dog that lost his home? Besides… What’s the point of her being alive like a half-dead? We

are helping her to end the misery of her life.”

The gray-haired Theo was also carrying Gloria, who had fainted, into the car she drove. It was almost

to ‘wake Gloria up’ in advance when she heard of what Jafar said.

How shameless he was!
