CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 338 Stubborn

Frances didn’t know why Kyle was asking this question for, and just replied, “What’s wrong? Do you need anything?”

Well, not the kind of thing that he can tell Frances.

Kyle responded, “Nothing important really. I just wanted to chat with him. Is he around?”

Frances replied that Marshall went to the bathroom.

Kyle didn’t press further and said, “Okay then, I will call him later.”

Then he just hung up the phone.

Kyle put the phone aside and sneered, “Marshall is having dinner with Clara. I really got to salute to him. How can he have the appetite to eat with that woman?”

Katherine smiled, “Well, Miss Henderson is both kind and beautiful. Don’t be jealous of her.”

“I’m jealous of her?” Kyle turned around and pointed at his eyes, “You know what, I’m not trying to brag, but I can see right through people. I can immediately tell if one is fake or not. Nobody can hold a candle to me on this matter.”

Katherine glanced at Kyle with the corner of her eyes and smiled, “All right. Do you need anything else? I really want to have some rest.”

It was not exactly late. Kyle mused for a while and figured that he had spent the whole afternoon here, so he should leave anyway.

Then he just said goodbye to Katherine and left.

Katherine fixated her eyes on TV which was airing a music talent show.

There were all sorts of talent show nowadays and there was really not much to watch in their preliminary stages.

But at the later part of the show, all those left were talented ones and it was when the show would become interesting.

After watching for a while, Katherine felt bored and just turned off the TV.

She shut the door and went upstairs slowly.

Clara was actually a pretty good choice. If the Grants can unite the Hendersons by marriage, the two families’ business would for sure blossom.

Katherine went back to her bedroom and checked the balcony. The balcony was closed tightly, so no one would be able to break in.

Katherine looked outside through the window and beat her chest.

She was feeling goddamn upset.

After Marshall left the private room, he just disappeared and didn’t return to the room after Clara and Frances had finished the meal.

Frances felt odd, “Clara, wait here. I will go outside and check on him.”

Clara nodded.

Frances headed out the private room and went to the lobby, but Marshall was not there.

At last, she went to the restaurant’s front door and found that Marshall was sitting in the car.

Frances felt exasperated and disappointed.

She then pounded at the car window.

Marshall reclined the seat and seemed like to be sleeping.

Hearing the tapping on the window, he slowly turned around.

The car window was half down, he just said, “Are you done eating? I’ll send you home.”

Frances suppressed her voice, “Marshall, what are you doing here?”

Marshall cracked a smile, “What are you doing?”

Frances was really stubborn on this matter, “I want you to be together with Clara? Am I wrong?”

Marshall got the window down all the way, “If it’s really what you want, you can be together with her then. Why should I care about what you want?”

Frances took a deep breath because she felt like that Marshall was being unreasonable.

Marshall was supposed to be Clara from the outset. Wouldn’t it make everything right if he got back with Clara now that he was divorced?”

He was for sure being stubborn.

Marshall got the seat back up, “If you don’t give up this idea, I won’t have meal with you from now on. This is the last time.”

Frances got slightly agitated, “What’s wrong with you? Are you trying to get rid of your own mother for that Katherine?”

Marshall was always a cold person and didn’t really value family too much.

He stared at Frances, “You are the one who is really leaving the family for Clara. Haven’t you yet figured out why my dad got divorced with you?”

“Marshall!” Frances shouted.

She can’t bear it when someone said that Khalid didn’t want her anymore. It was impossible. Khalid always doted on her.

Marshall spoke, “Where is my phone? Give it to me.”

The phone was still in Frances’ hand. She then just tossed the phone into the car through the window, “Here is your phone. How ungrateful are you! I’m doing all of this for you. you are just like your father...!”

Marshall just started the car and lifted the window.

It looked like that he wouldn’t even drive her home.

Frances kicked at Marshall’s car.

But Marshall straight drove away and didn’t say anything.

Standing in ground, Frances was livid with anger. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Clara saw her altercations with Marshall through the restaurant window.

Though she didn’t heat their conversation, she can see that they didn’t really agree on the issue judging from Frances’ kick on the car.

Clara turned around and took her seat.

She was also getting furious for she didn’t know how to get to know Marshall.

Frances then returned to the room in a minute.

She came in smilingly and tried to explain that Marshall had to go to the company and left first.

Clara acted she didn’t know what happened. “Right, he must be busy. There are a lot of stuff in the company for him to handle.”

Frances didn’t rush to leave and sat down, “But he got to have a relationship. He is really a stubborn one.”

In an effort to comfort Clara, Frances added, “Growing up, Marshall is always indifferent and doesn’t have many girls around. He is a bit dull when it comes to relationship. We all know that, right? He is spending way too much energy on work. But nobody is perfect. You got to forgive him for that.”

Clara smiled.

Actually, if Marshall can be together with her in the end, she was willing to wait longer, but she was just afraid that he would end up being together with other women.

Marshall had already paid the bill when he went out, so Clara and Frances just left.

The two called cabs home separately. After Frances left, Clara hailed a taxi and said Katherine’s address hesitantly.

Though she hadn’t visited Katherine’s residence before, she heard Frances nagging about it. She said that Marshall gave Katherine a lovely house when they got divorced and Katherine was living in it merrily.

Frances had also mentioned the address of the house which was really located in a valuable district.

Clara asked the driver to stop near Katherine’s house and decided to walk there.

Katherine was already asleep.

Clara looked a while from afar and hided behind a tree when she saw someone standing in front of Katherine’s house.

A man was leaning against a parked car and stared at the direction of Katherine’s second floor.
