Steal my heart novel (Grace James and Caden Shaw)

Chapter 24 Despise Grace

“Caden, those words you said to Grace are very hurtful. Do you know that?” Humbert followed behind

Caden while saying what's on his mind.

“Do I need to consider her feelings?”

“Since when are you so willful? What if you regret treating her like that?”

Caden handed a cigarette to Humbert, he smiled in disagreement thought, “Just smoke and don't think

wildly.”

Regret? Would he?

Absolutely not.

Humbert stopped talking. He actually felt that Caden would not regret anything. He didn't even see

Caden regretting Wallis’ accident at that time.

“Want some drink?”

“I have to take care of some matters at the Royal Club.”

Humbert brazenly followed Caden to the Royal Club at once.

Royal Club, Gloria called Ruby to the office.

“You live in a dorm with Grace and she's sick, you didn't felt anything unusual?” Gloria sat on the sofa

and asked the girl in front of her.

Actually, she had no impression of Ruby. Yesterday when Grace didn't come to work, she went to the

HR department and checked the details of Grace's employee dorm. She also checked the employee

dorm registered for and saw Ruby who's in the same room.

Gloria had seen all kinds of people since she had worked for so long.

Employees from the dorm, when another one didn't come to work because she's sick, Gloria wouldn't

believe that Ruby didn't notice it at all. That would actually mean that Ruby neglected Grace on

purpose.

Last night it was so dangerous that Gloria still got deep impression of it. When she saw Grace at her

dorm, Grace already had a high fever.

If she didn't go there on time, Grace might just die there. Gloria didn't care about Ruby's indifference

and disregard, but if someone died because of that... She wouldn't dare to keep such people like Ruby.

Gloria had always been detailed about work, just now she also checked Ruby and Grace's relationship.

The fun thing is, Luna, the 606 VIP room's escort told her something she would never imagine.

Ruby was upset, Gloria was someone who Ruby would never reach, had called her to the office

today... Ruby thought that she must have done something wrong.

But when she heard Gloria mentioning Grace... Ruby felt at ease.

It turned out to be because she and Grace lived in the same dorm, so Gloria asked her something

routine. It scared her to death.

“Gloria, I'm not close to that woman.”

That woman...? Gloria lifted her head up and scanned the girl before her.

Gloria raised her eyebrows and asked with interest, “That woman?”

Ruby felt helpless at Gloria's expression. But after giving it a thought, she didn't think that she had said

anything wrong.

What did Gloria mean by that?

“Ruby, do you despise Grace so much?” Gloria suddenly asked.

Of course, who would not despise that kind of woman?

...Ruby almost answered like that subconsciously.

But she also felt that she'd ruin her image in Gloria's mind if she had said it like that...

Actually Ruby thought too much, Gloria had so much work and if not for Grace’s matter, who would

know who Ruby was.

Ruby prepared some words at heart before she cautiously looked at Gloria and said, “She did those

undignified things and it was already known all over Royal Club, how could she sway on the ground...

picking money up? Gloria, everyone said that she's very, very, very...”

At the very last, Ruby looked so embarrassed to even say that.

Gloria suddenly laughed. Her laugh was like the winter snow that melted in the early spring, it was so

brilliant that it was a bit strange.

Ruby thought, she wouldn't have said anything wrong, right?

Ruby didn't feel ashamed when thinking of Grace.

Gloria looked at Ruby with a smile, “Very what? Very shameful? Or very lowly?” her red lips curved into

a smile, she really hated Ruby.

Gloria suddenly retracted her smile and sneered, “I've seen your information, and you're from S

University, right? Do you think that being a waiter in such a club makes you more noble than others?

You think that you are pure and clean? Do you feel that Grace was very lowly so she didn’t have the

right to live with you? Even if she got sick and didn't come to work, you can just completely ignore her?”

Ruby looked at Gloria in confusion... What did Gloria mean by that?

She's a student from S University, she would definitely hear out what Gloria had meant by that.

Gloria stood up and walked over to Ruby.

Gloria was tall and she wore high heels too, Ruby suddenly looked very short when faced with Gloria.

Gloria had been engaged in the business world for so many years and she looked like a queen with her

professional attire.

The young and inexperienced Ruby couldn't compare to her.

“Ruby, you thought you're noble and pure? You have lofty ambition? You despise Grace from the

bottom of your heart? Let me tell you that you can't compare to Grace!”

Ruby was not convinced, “Gloria, your words are over the line! I worked hard to get into S University,

and as a student of S University, would I be inferior to a shameless woman? We're both poor but I

would never do anything for money. Even if I work part time at Royal Club, but I am a waiter, I am

different from that Grace who would do anything for money!”

“bah,” Gloria sneered, “Don't think so highly of your own self. Rich people and wealthy princes come

and go to Royal Club. With any of their pressure, how noble would you think you'd be? You still

remember what happened at the 606 VIP room that day, right? If Grace was not softhearted and

helped you out, you thought you can still stand here and say those sarcastic things now?”

Ruby turned pale. She did remember what happened on that day, but, but, but that couldn't prove

anything!

“Even if that was true, Grace indeed helped me. She helped me out but I didn't tell her to wag her butt

like dogs on all fours to please those guests. In the end she did it for money. What does that have to do

with me?”

Gloria wanted to laugh out of anger, she felt Ruby didn’t deserve Grace's help at all. She looked at

Ruby closely...

“Why did Grace save someone like you?”
