Chapter 297 I Believe All Grace Says

Fatty wanted to make a move, but he recalled that gaze. He had never seen such a gaze before.

A normal person won’t have such a gaze!

Fatty hesitated.

“Fatty, why are you hesitating!”

Grace was anxious as she noticed that Fatty was hesitating.

Now, the only one who could make a move was Fatty. The gangster and the big guy in the lead were
heavily injured.

“Let us go. I promise I won’t pursue tonight’s matter. Otherwise, your guys are badly injured. Can you
leave S City tonight?”

She made a tempting offer, “As for the money, I’ll give you one million. You can share it. Otherwise …”
She glanced at the man aside, who was also seriously injured. If she continued to entangle herself with
these people, something might really happen.

In a hurry, she regained her logic. Her gaze instantly turned fierce.

“You have two choices.

First, let us go. I will not pursue tonight’s matter. Tomorrow, one million will be transferred to your
account. It’s better for both of us.

Second, make it severer. Once you leave this place, I will call the police and look for you all over the
country with one million.

Of course, I’m not afraid that you’ll kill us now. Think of it.



I am a public figure. If I died in this alley for no apparent reason, you would get into a big trouble.

Both the media and the business world would look for a reason.

At that time, where could you hide?

Think about it clearly. Do you want to take one million and leave now, or do you want someone else to
take it and you have to hide for the rest of your life?”

Grace said righteously and magnificently, but her heart was beating fast.

Only she knew that her palms were covered in sweat.

When she said this, she was also gambling.

Fatty looked frightened and wanted to retreat. “Bro, I think we should let them go …”

“Shut up!”

The gangster in the lead looked at Grace’s face with unfathomable eyes. “You cut off my retreat. Aren’t
you afraid that I’ll be anxious and kill you?”

“There is clearly a way for us to achieve both targets. Both of us would be satisfied. However, if you
insist on losing both worlds, I can’t do anything,” Grace said slowly. At this moment, she was extremely
calm.

“I know you are smart.

You just do it for money.

I don’t require you to say anything about the man behind you. Also, I’ve given way. Just think of it in
another way. You guys are clearly the ones who hurt us, but I’ll give you one million … Then …



Reputation and money. You have both.

Even a fool knows how to choose.”

The unfathomable eyes of the gangster flickered. He suddenly laughed.

“Miss Grace is so kind! Now that you said so, even a fool knows how to choose.

We are not stupid.”

Grace heaved a sigh of relief. She wanted to catch her breath, but she didn’t dare to take it easy. When
the gangster laughed, she also beamed carelessly.

“So, have we reached a consensus?”

The more careless she looked, the less the gangster dared to act rashly. “Miss Grace, do you keep
your word? How do we know that you won’t take revenge afterwards?”

“I’m not that stupid. You’re just for money.

There is an old saying that nobody could keep his caution on thieves for one thousand days. If I call the
police to take revenge on you but one of you escape, I won’t have a peaceful life for the rest of my life.

The life is short. Am I that silly that I’ll keep a hidden time bomb and leave you the opportunities to take
revenge on me?”

Hearing this, the gangster put away his guard and took a deep look at Grace.

“Miss Grace, you’re indeed formidable.

With such a few words, you could hit the nail on the head.



Miss Grace, we’re sorry for what happened today.

You’re good. We could only praise you.”

With that, he asked Fatty to support him, “Fatty, come on. Help me.” Then, they limped away, with their
arms on their shoulders.

After a long time.

When Grace no longer heard their footsteps, as she was blown by the wind, she fiercely trembled …
She leaned against the wall and collapsed onto the ground.

“Grace, you’re amazing.”

Grace reached out and wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. When she looked up, she saw a pair of
eyes filled with admiration and sparkling light. A strange feeling surfaced in her heart … This was the
first time when Caden praised her.

What was it like to be stared at by Caden with admiration? Grace reached out and pushed away the
head in front of her.

Her hands were grabbed.

“Grace, why are your hands so wet?”

“...”

“Grace, what are you doing on the ground?” Caden chirped and was going to sit on the ground as
Grace did.

“It must be very comfortable to sit like this. Then I …”



“Shut up!” She had a headache again and reached out to rub her temples.

At the meantime, Caden was still chirping, “Grace, is it comfortable to sit on the ground?”

She clenched her fingers … She swore that she really heard her finger joints cracking.

In case he continued to chatter, Grace glanced at him angrily.

“My legs are weak.”

“Then …”

Grace hurriedly interrupted, “You wanna ask why my legs are weak?” Caden looked at her in surprise.
His eyes were so pure that he couldn’t hide any thoughts.

Seeing this, Grace’s eyelids drooped slightly. When she looked up at him again, she put on a friendly
smile. “Did you just ask me whether it is comfortable to sit on the ground?”

“That’s right, Grace. Is it comfortable?”

Grace smiled and waved her hand. “Come here. Right. Lean closer.” Caden hadn’t seen Grace
behaved so kindly before. In the eyes of the eight-year-old Caden, Grace was a kind and friendly sister.

‘Grace’s smile is so beautiful. No matter how many times I see it, I feel it’s not enough.’

“Right, but it’s still far away. Closer.”

‘Her smile is more beautiful!’

“Come. Sit down. You’ll know if it is comfortable to sit here.”

Grace kindly pointed at her side. Caden widened his eyes. “Really?” He was going to sit down.



“Stand up!” Grace’s expression instantly changed.

“Ah …”

“Don’t move!” Her face darkened. “Do you believe all I say? Why don’t you think about it by yourself? Is
it comfortable to sit on the ground?”

“All you say is right. I believe all you say.”

What naive words! What pure eyes … What simple trust!

However, she felt depressed.

“You believe ... all I say?”

“That’s right! Whatever you say, I believe it!”

She fell silent.

She was silent for a long time.

When Caden was embarrassed, he broke the silence, “Grace, it is ... not comfortable to sit on the
ground. It’s cold.”

Grace glanced over and discovered that Caden was really sitting on the ground when she lowered her
head and fell into her thoughts.

A trace of astonishment flashed through her eyes but disappeared next second.

“Then … maybe I am wearing the wrong trousers today. That’s why it’s not comfortable. Next time, I’ll
change another pair of trousers,” Caden continued. He thought that Grace did not like him questioning
her.



A beam flashed through Grace’s eyes. “So, do you believe all I say? No matter it is right or wrong?”

“Yes! I believe all you say! And I’ll believe it forever!”

Caden swore.

Grace lowered her eyes … This time, she was silent for dozens of seconds. Then, she raised her hand
and said, “The ground is cold. Help me up.”

Caden stood up and came over to help her up. When she touched him, he hissed and almost fell to the
ground.

She suddenly remembered that there must be lots of wounds all over Caden’s body. She held one of
his arms without saying a word and limped slowly towards home.

“Forever … You fool. Why can you say ‘forever’?”

Forever … Grace looked calm, but a voice was shouting in her heart, “Don’t believe him. He’s a fool.”

She squeezed out all the warmth in her body, leaving nothing behind.

She looked indifferent again.
