I've Been There Before

Chapter 327: Uninvited Visitor

Kern rushed to the Shaw’s mansion.

“You were behind it, weren’t you?”

He shouted to Master Shaw who was enjoying a cup of tea.

“You came here for no reason … Is that how you treat your grandfather?” Master Shaw put down the cup. His face darkened.

“You ordered Mr. Venus to do that, didn’t you? Otherwise, Mr. Venus wouldn’t dare to do that.”

“What are you talking about?”

“You were behind Grace’s car accident, weren’t you?” Kern was furious.

Master Shaw’s face turned cold when he heard Grace’s name. “Do you want to go against your grandfather for her?”

“That means …You admitted it.”

Kern clenched his fists. His body shivered in anger. “How the hell did she provoke you?”

“Every part of her is provoking me.”

“She’s just a woman. How did she offend you? She could even call you grandfather. You watched her grow up. Why do you hate her so much and set her up?”

“Did I set her up?”

“Don’t tell me you didn’t set her up in Wallis’ death. Don’t tell me you had nothing to do with it. You set her up back then. Now you even ordered Mr. Venus to create the accident. You just won’t stop messing

with her, will you?

“I don’t understand how the hell she provoked you! Why don’t you stop?”

Master Shaw was enraged and smashed the cup. “How did she provoke me? Every part of her is provoking me! Are you all seduced by her? I should have ruined her face so she couldn’t seduce anyone!”

Kern couldn’t believe his ears. “How could you say that as a noble senior?

“Seduce?

“What a rude word!”

“Am I wrong?

“My two grandsons have gone against me for her. They’ve even given up the family business for her. She’s a scourge. I should’ve abandoned her when she was an infant! Then my two grandsons wouldn’t lose themselves for her sake decades later!”

“Infant?” Kern heard something suspicious. “What are you talking about?”

Master Shaw sneered.

“It doesn’t matter what I say. What matters is that both of my grandsons are intrigued by her!

How could the offspring of the Shaw family throw themselves at a woman’s feet?

They should be ambitious, wise, and decisive. They should never be limited by a woman!”

“Is that your reason? Is that why you keep messing with her?”

“Precisely. That’s why. You’ve both ignored the family business and spent all your energy on her. How could the offspring of the Shaw family act like this?”

Master Shaw looked cruel. “I tell you what, she was only lucky this time!”

He was implying this was far from the end.

Kern took a deep breath in fear.

“What else do you want?”

“What else do I want? First of all, I want you to do what you should as an offspring of the Shaw family! We don’t value romances!”

Kern was furious, but he couldn’t do anything to the old man in front of him.

Kern couldn’t protect Grace forever. If Master Shaw kept messing with her, something bad would happen to her sooner or later.

His body trembled in rage. After a long while, he released his clenched fists like a defeated rooster.

“If … I don’t get in touch with her from now on, will you stop hurting her?”

Master Shaw would have said “Of course not”. But when he saw the plea in Kern’s eyes, he raised his eyebrows.

“Sure. One of my grandsons is already hopeless.

“If you don’t care about her anymore, I won’t hurt her again. You have my word.”

Kern took a deep look at the old man and said with great determination, “You must keep your word.”

“I always keep my word.”

Kern nodded. “This is the last time. If I live by your plan and do what you want, but you still did something to her, then I will … You will die alone.”

He was bidding farewell to Master Shaw.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Master Shaw’s eyes, but he still nodded. “Alright.”

…

In the hospital.

An unexpected figure showed up in the VIP ward today.

“Let him in.”

The man in the ward ordered.

The door opened, and an equally outstanding man entered.

“You’re quite well-informed.”

The man in the bed said with his pale lips curled up coldly.

“I have my source of information. No matter how well you hide, you can’t guarantee that your people will not reveal themselves.”

The man curled his lips and chuckled. “You don’t have to covet the Shaw Group so anxiously. When I’m dead, the Shaw Group will be yours.”

The man found a chair to sit on and said, “Bullshit. You’ll pass on all your possessions to her when you’re dead.”

He didn’t say who “she” was, but the eyes of the man in the bed lit up.

“You know me quite well.”

“No, no, no.” The visitor waved his index finger.

“It’s just I saw Mr. Bennet, the lawyer, walking out of the hospital the other day.

“You hired Mr. Bennet to serve you and the Shaw Group.

“He was holding a briefcase and Ladd was following him. They’re your people. I reckon they didn’t come here to see a doctor, did they?”

“Is that how you found me?”

Though it was a question, it was obvious that he had confirmed his guess.

“I used some connections to find out that you divorced her.

“I couldn’t think of any reason for you to do that.

“Back then, you were so unwilling to let her go. You used all your means and even pretended to be mad. You did so many shameless things.

“I didn’t believe you would ever divorce her. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Then I dug a little deeper and found out.”

“You are quite capable.”

“I can’t compare with you.

“Even when you’re about to die, there’s no news about your status heard outside. No one inside the group knows it.

“Even the old man in the mansion doesn’t know.

“Tell me, if I were to reveal your imminent death to the old man, do you think he would shed a few crocodile tears?”

“He will take down the Shaw Group while shedding some crocodile tears. He might sweep my grave and recall me when he has time.”

The visitor laughed to tears at his words. “You know him well.”

“Of course.” The man in the bed curled his lips coldly.

“But I guess you sent for Mr. Bennet not just to handle the divorce. No, it would be a waste of his ability. I guess you made a will to leave all your possessions to her upon your death.

“It looks like the old man is going to have an empty wish.

“I’d better not tell him.

“Or he may die from a stroke as he finds his efforts in vain.”

“I didn’t know you were so obedient.”
