CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 512 I Am Not a Fool

When Marshall was going to be off duty, he went to have another look in Khalid’s office.

With documents piled on his office table and one of them half open, seeming to be half looked through, Khalid was not in the room.

Marshall stared at the empty table for a while and turned around to leave.

He directly drove to the old house. After getting off, he deliberately checked the parking lot and didn’t find Khalid’s car. It seemed Khalid didn’t return home.

Knowing Khalid go outside without even returning home, Marshall could already know what he was doing.

Marshall turned around to the main building. After walking a few steps, he found Lydia was coming from the garden.

She was in a delicate dress up and seemed to go outside.

Lydia was startled to find Marshall arrive.

However, she then showed a smiled and remarked, “Well, Marshall is back. You really have a better relation with Kathy for checking her even during the lunch time.”

Marshall simply greeted her and didn’t say anything.

Lydia nodded and continued, “Marshall, well, to be honest, you really have to grab the chance to remarry Kathy. If you are still not married, many changes will happen to your marriage.”

Marshall purled up his lip and replied, “Never mind. Getting married can’t compared with having a baby. Simply owning a marriage license still has the possibility to put the relation on edge, but having a baby

is different.”

Lydia looked at him and laughed out, noting, “You really look on the bright side.”

Marshall nodded towards her. He didn’t say anything else but went directly to the main building.

Old Mrs. Grant and Katherine were not downstairs. Marshall noticed servants were preparing lunch in the kitchen. Hence, he looked around and went upstairs.

Katherine was asleep. Marshall opened the door to get in and kept his voice down.

He slowly sat by Katherine’s side and rubbed her hair gently.

Hector already decided his time to take a vacation. Although his free days weren’t be long, it was enough for him to have a good rest.

After he came back, Marshall thought it was the time to make everything clear.

Katherine was deep in her sleep and didn’t notice Marshall had come back.

Marshall leaned against the bedside and found someone sent him message after a short while.

It was from his subordinate, telling him the information they got during the interrogation.

Those men on trial were not from manager board and only knew things on the surface. However, it was already enough for Marshall to lock his target.

Marshall texted to inform him he got it and put his phone down.

Katherine’s phone was on the other side. Marshall grabbed it to have a look.

It showed that Kyle had called, but he hanged off after only three or four seconds. Marshall didn’t know whether he had the wrong number or not.

Marshall didn’t mind it but accompanied by Katherine’s side until the servant called them to have lunch.

The noise from knocking the door woke Katherine up. She was startled when seeing Marshall was around.

Marshall got off bed and asked, “Do you feel tired today? I find you’re deep asleep.”

Katherine nodded while Marshall supported her to get up, replying, “Well, I have a good sleep and feel fresh now.”

Marshall helped to tidy her hair and noted, “It will be bad for your body for sleeping too much. I’m afraid you will feel sick.”

Katherine nodded and suggested, “Let’s get downstairs to have lunch. I get hungry once I wake up.”

Marshall smiled and found Katherine was adorable out of no reason.

They came across old Mrs. Grant, who was coming out from her room, in the corridor. Old Mrs. Grant didn’t show a surprising look when seeing Marshall come back.

She simply asked, “Didn’t your dad come with you?”

Marshall smiled. He hesitated for a while and replied, “I suppose dad is with mom now.” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Both old Mrs. Grant and Katherine were startled, while Katherine reacted quickly and asked, “Did elder Mr. Grant come to find mom?”

Although Marshall couldn’t be sure, he felt that was what happened, replying, “I think so.”

Katherine wanted to gossip about it. She hurriedly took out her phone and remarked, “You can go to have lunch. I have to make a call to ask her.”

Even Katherine’s tone turned sneaky when learning what happened, which teased old Mrs. Grant on the other side. She noted, “You’re acting like they’re having an affair.”

Katherine also couldn’t stop laughing and replied, “I am just being curious.”

Marshall supported old Mrs. Grant to get downstairs, while Katherine called Frances in the corridor.

Frances picked up the phone after a long time. Katherine had a sense that her tone was full of embarrassment when hearing her asked, “Kathy, what’s wrong?”

Katherine lowered her voice and asked, “I just want to ask you a question. Well, who’re you with now?”

Frances remained silence.

Katherine could guess she was with elder Mr. Grant judging from her reaction. She laughed out loud and asked, “What’s happening? Didn’t Nicolas say he was going to have lunch in your place? Did he get stood up?”

How to explain? Frances really didn’t know.

Katherine waited for her reply. After not hearing her answer, she thought for a while and guessed Frances must be inconvenient to tell what happened right now.

Katherine noted, “Well, you can have lunch now. We will talk when we have time.”

She added when she was hanging up the phone, “Go for it.”

Frances was extremely awkward on the other side. She cleared her throat and simply promised her with a yes.

Finally, their call was over.

After hanging up the phone, Katherine squeezed her phone, feeling delighted for their reunion, and got downstairs.

Marshall and old Mrs. Grant were already in the kitchen.

Clearly, they were waiting for her.

When seeing Katherine come with a smile, Marshall could almost guess what the answer was.

He looked Katherine came to sit by his side and petted her head, asking, “Are you satisfied now?”

Katherine nodded and noted, “I used to think elder Mr. Grant was not active in love, but now it seems he is good at it. Well, that’s what he should do. Why didn’t both of them make a comprise considering they love each other?”

Old Mrs. Grant agreed with her words quite well. She turned around to Marshall and remarked, “That’s right. If you could be only half like your father, you and Katherine will get remarried now.”

Marshall immediately turned around his head and said to Katherine, “If you can be half like my mom to be understandable, we will get remarried now.”

Katherine couldn’t help smiling and ignored him.

Because of what happened to Frances, all of them were having a good lunch.

There was some time left for Marshall to go to work, he decided to Katherine to take a walk in the old house.

They didn’t have any topic in particular. Marshall reminded of his encounter with Lydia and talked something about her.

Katherine reminded the last time when she was walking with Lucas and came across her, Lydia suddenly showed up a cold face.

Actually, Katherine knew Lydia was simply worried that Katherine would affect Lucas to have a girlfriend.

Lydia was the one who considered too far. Katherine already got a child now. Well, even if she was single and didn’t have a baby, it was impossible for her to be with Lucas.

No matter what others think. Katherine couldn’t allow herself to be shameless.

Lydia was already in her elder age. Why couldn’t she figure that out?

Marshall also sighed and noted he also didn’t know when would Lucas have a girlfriend.

Katherine thought for a while and noted, “He would when he meets his true love. It’s not necessary for us to worry.”

Marshall turned around to look at Katherine. He then smiled and didn’t say a word.

After walking for a while, Katherine finally spoke, “You’re all thinking too much. I am not a fool and know what to do.”
