I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden)
Chapter 123 They Are Not Worthy to See

Franklin!

Grace finally knew what the purpose of the banquet was today.

Celina said she was entrusted by a person.

It didn't matter who this "person" was.

But was Franklin appearing here by coincidence?

She lost her kidneys, not her brain.

In her heart, she had already understood. She did not look at Franklin, but at Celina who was aside. Celina naturally noticed Grace's gaze. She turned her head, but did not see the defeated or embarrassed expression on Grace's face, but seeing the clarity of Grace's eyes, it seemed that she could see through everything.

Celina felt flustered. Under Grace's eyes that could see through everything, she seemed to return to how she felt when facing Grace three years ago... At that time, she and Grace were in a face-to-face confrontation. No matter what she had done, Grace's eyes were always clear as if Grace knew every trick she played!

It seemed that her little tricks were nothing in Grace's eyes... But that was three years ago!

Three years ago, Grace had a strong background and she was arrogant!

What about now?

Grace, who had lost everything she had, still had such clear eyes?

God, how unfair!

Why could a bitch keep such a look?

Franklin clenched his fist, "I don't believe it! She's not the daughter of the James family. She didn't bribe some gangsters. Grace is an ordinary woman! Where did she get the money to do this?"

Celina was annoyed at Grace. At this moment, she saw Franklin trying his best to protect this woman. The jealousy in her heart could almost swallow her, "Mr. Cordon, you're really interesting. Isn't Grace's brother, Payne James, standing beside you? But it's not your faults. You moved to the United States before and didn't know these things. It's not surprising."

Celina started talking, and even sneered.

"An ordinary girl you said. Her name is Grace. Three years ago, she was the daughter of the James family. At that time, everyone in Shanghai knew about her.

However, she set her friend up so that her friend was raped by a group of gangsters. Her friend couldn't accept it and committed suicide. This incident caused a sensation in Shanghai at the time, and everyone knew it.

What the most ridiculous is that the man she loved threw her into prison with his own hands. "

Franklin looked at Payne. His eyes filled with questions, "...Is it true?"

Payne didn't say anything, but acquiesced.

Franklin felt like he was hit by something!

He looked at Grace again, "Is it true?"

Grace looked at Franklin across the crowd...The chaos in the eyes of the big boy was clearly seen by her.

Celina added, "Who is Caden? Mr. Cordon, you must know him. At that time, he personally sent Grace to prison.

If there is no such thing... then you can ask Payne who is next to you. You can ask him that the James family still recognize Grace?"

"I remember that the James family declared on the newspaper that they did not admit that Grace was a member of the James family." Celina said, but she stared at Payne, "It's okay that we don't believe Grace. But even her family doesn't believe her, so, Mr. Cordon, tell me, is she guilty?" "If her family doesn't believe her, then, Mr. Cordon, tell me, is she guilty?"

This sentence made Franklin a mess in his heart!

He looked at Payne, but Payne turned his head... This action meant what Celina and the others said was true!

Franklin was still in a daze... He always thought that Grace had her own difficulties.

He didn't even know that she was the daughter of the James family and she had done such a despicable thing!

Framing, bribing, designing, gang rape... All crimes were totally ugly!

He was a little confused. He suddenly looked at the box of red banknotes, and remembered what Celina and others said just now, "Grace, you can do everything for money!"

He also remembered that when he was in the private room yesterday, Cayne's weird words... So, it turned out that everyone knew except him.

He could accept everything about Grace, but...

He couldn't!

Franklin couldn't accept it. The first time he treated a woman sincerely... but she was a so vicious woman! He was so proud. How could he fall in love with such a selfish and ugly murderer?

She may not be beautiful, or cute, or defective! But!

She couldn't be vicious! Her heart was stinky, dirty and black!

He couldn't accept it. It was not acceptable!

No, no, no... He was just obsessed with her body and her lips. He was just out of his mind for a while. So he would think this was love... He, Franklin, was the heir of the Cordon family. How could he fall in love with a shameless, mean and ugly disgusting murderer? He would not!

From the bottom of his heart, he firmly vetoed everything!

Franklin finally fell his gaze into the crowd. He stared at the woman who knelt on one knee and massaged an old man's foot... "I'll give you a chance. What they said... is a lie?"

At this moment, Franklin was no longer the big boy in Grace's eyes. He was different from before. Not far away, Grace's sight crossed the crowd to fall on the man who had been with her for many days... After all, he saw the humblest side of her. She let him see who she was and her past.

Grace ignored the pain in her heart. She looked towards Franklin across the crowd...but she didn't expect that he would uncover Pandora's box in this way. She didn't expect that he would know her humble past in this way

She slowly said, "Franklin," this was the first time she called this big boy like this, "I say I didn't set Wallis up. I didn't bribe gangsters to rape her. Do you believe it?"

Celina laughed, "Grace, you dare to do it but you dare not to admit it. How shameless you are! If there is nothing, will we wronged you? Even if we wronged you, will Caden wronged you?

If you didn't do it, can you explain why your biological parents would not admit you? Your brother Payne is standing there. You are being bullied! Why doesn't he stand up to help you? Let you be bullied by us?"

Every sentence and every word stabbed into Grace's heart!

"If you didn't do it, would Caden wronged you?'

"If you didn't do it, why would your parents deny you?'

"If you don't do it, your brother will just watch you be bullied by us but he won't stand up to help you!"

Sentence after sentence!

Grace took a deep breath. The pain in her chest made her suffocating... She also wanted to yell back.

"Is it my fault that Caden wronged me?"

"Is it my fault that my parents don't admit me?"

"Is it my fault that my brother stands in front of me watching me being bullied and being indifferent?"

"Because of Caden, because of my parents, because of my brother's choice... Therefore, although I am not guilty, I become guilty!"

Who really cared about the so-called truth?

Anyway, even Caden punished her, so it was her who did that thing.

Anyway, her parents refused to admit her anymore, so it was that she did that thing!

Anyway, when they bullied her so much, her brother stood by and refused to say a word for her... She must have done that thing!

Her gaze looked around at everyone... They all thought so. Anyway, it was none of their business. They could be friends if nothing happened. But at the next moment, if one of them was down and out, it would be very likely that the first person who harmed him was his "good friend"!

Grace closed her eyes suddenly! Only in this way could she cover the stormy waves of emotional surging in the eyes!

She didn't want them to see. She didn't want to be seen... They didn't deserve to see!00000
