CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 174 The Complicated Relationship

Katherine got up late the next day, while Marshall had already gone to work.

Sitting on the bed, she scratched her hair, and then went to wash up slowly.

But she still remembered that she had an appointment with Hector today.

Since Katherine had eaten a lot last night, she didn’t feel hungry now.

After washing up, she put on some makeup.

The other day, she went shopping in the mall and bought something for herself, including a short skirt and a pair of rhinestone sandals.

She threw her hair up into a bun, which gave her a fresh look.

Now that she dressed herself up, Katherine went out.

Naturally, she went to the dessert shop first.

The store wasn’t opened yet when Katherine got there. Seemingly, Margaret didn’t really want to run this shop anymore, or else, she wouldn’t have been so slack in business.

Katherine stayed at the entrance of the dessert shop for a while, finding that there were many office workers around this place in the morning.

If more effort was put into the shop, business would be good.

When it was almost time, Katherine called Hector.

Hector answered the phone immediately, asking about her location and offering to pick her up.

Katherine told him the address at once.

Before long, Hector arrived in that same old car.

Katherine went over, pulled open the door and got into the car.

It was then that she found Hector dressing differently from before. He was actually wearing a suit today.

Hector was a handsome man, and now he looked like a social elite.

Smiling, Katherine asked as she fastened the seat belt, "So you’ve got a full-time job?"

Hector replied seriously, "I’m going to work in my family business from tomorrow."

Katherine paused and remembered something. Marshall had told her before that the Bennett family ran a big business.

Katherine thought a moment before nodding. "Actually, it’s better to work in your family business. At least it’s your own turf, so you’ll feel more at ease."

However, Hector smiled. "It’s not as easy as you think." Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Katherine wondered, "What do you mean by that?"

Hector simply said with a smile, "I’ll take you to my family business first."

He drove Katherine to Bennett & Co.

At first they didn’t drive in, but stopped outside.

Katherine had her face pressed up against the window, staring at the office building outside. "So that’s your family business’ building?"

Hector replied yes and leaned back in the seat, also looking at the building.

Katherine gave a smile. "Impressive! I can tell your family business is doing well."

It was such a large office building, almost the same size as the Grant family’s.

And it was in the downtown area too.

After a few seconds, Hector sighed, "What will the interpersonal relationship be like in such a big company?"

Katherine looked back at Hector and suddenly remembered something. Hector told her the woman she had met yesterday was his stepmother.

Well, that explained a lot.

Normally, where there was a stepmother, there was a stepfather.

Katherine rolled her eyes. "Do you have any siblings?"

She was asking very euphemistically.

Hector chuckled. "Yes. An elder brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister."

Katherine paused, Kevin Bennett’s old face flashing across her mind.

She didn’t expected Kevin to be so… lively.

Katherine asked immediately, "And all of them work in this company?"

Hector nodded. "Yes, all of them."

Katherine clicked her tongue. "I can tell the interpersonal relationship must be rather complicated."

However, it shouldn’t be more complicated than that of the Grant family.

There were four "Mr. Grant"s in the Grant family, each with his own household, but all of them worked in the same company.

Conceivably, the Grant family’s world was full of schemes.

Hector’s eyes darkened gradually. "Yes, it’s rather complicated."

It was even more complicated than Katherine imagined.

Suddenly, Hector changed the topic. "Have you seen the news online?"

Katherine was stunned. "What news? I haven’t seen anything yet."

Hector gave a smile. "That employee of WF Group was interviewed."
