Chapter 299 Met When They Were Young

“Mr. Lewis, where I stay or go is none of your concern.” Benjamin. made himself clear.

Aaron knew that it was futile to waste any words on Benjamin.

“Mr. Hawkins, everyone knows to catch the next train when it misses a station. After all, the train won’t

turn back, even if you stay at the station. You should understand this logic.”

After saying that, Aaron left with Caleb.

“Aaron, should we just leave him here?”

Caleb was still reluctant to leave, but Aaron said, “What can we do if

he doesn’t leave?”

“But Gracie doesn’t want to see him!

“We must believe that she will make the right choice. She knows

who’s worth spending a lifetime with.”

After hearing this, Caleb calmed down and said, “Let’s hope so.”

Meanwhile, Grace felt like she had been in a long nap and had long

dream.

She dreamed of five years ago, the first time she met Benjamin.



She was studying for her master’s degree at Coronia University School of Design. It was her first time

leaving home, and her family

was worried.

“Gracie, I bought a house opposite the university and arranged

b*dyguards and housekeepers for you. Don’t make things difficult for

Grace replied, “Don’t worry! I’m here to study, and living on campus is enough. I’m all grown up now. I

can take care of myself. Don’t worry about me.”

“But you’ve never been away from us. We’re still worried.”

Grace shook her head helplessly.

“Aaron, I’m already 20 years old. I’m not a child anymore. I had to leave sooner or later.”

She finally managed to convince Aaron after a long talk.

Hanging up the phone, she sighed. The next second, someone

stumbled toward her.

Before Grace could react, she lost her balance and fell heavily to the ground. A sharp pain shot up her

back.

The person who had bumped into her was just a teenager.

The teenager apologized profusely in Eliganese. Grace decided to let him off since he was young.

She slowly stood up with the help of her suitcase. Before she had the chance to say anything, the

teenager disappeared.

Grace was puzzled. “How did he disappear like that?”

Before she finished speaking, she froze. Then, she checked her and noticed that her purse was

missing.

“No way! I got robbed the moment I arrived here?”

Grace stomped in anger as she thought of the teenager who had bumped into her. “That damn thief! I

hope I never see him again. If I do, I’ll kill him!”

As soon as she said that, she heard a chuckle behind her.

Grace turned around and noticed a handsome man sitting on a bicycle, smiling at her. He had black

hair and pale skin. He was obviously from Kidhna.

She blurted, “What are you laughing at? What’s so funny?”

Benjamin crossed his arms and sized her up. He thought that she looked very cute with her puffed-up

cheeks.

Then, he raised an eyebrow and said, “You should pay attention to your safety when going out. Next

time, you might not meet a heroic young man like me.”

After saying that, he threw a wallet at her.

“You’re welcome!”

Then, he waved at her and left on his bike.



Grace looked at her stolen purse and couldn’t help but laugh.

Then, she watched him as he left.

But one glance had been enough to last a lifetime. What had happened back then was firmly etched

into her memory.
