CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 481 I Don't Want to Waste Your Time

Katherin wasn't in the mood. She went upstairs after a while.

She couldn't sleep. After she went to wash, she sat on the bed and swiped her phone.

It had been a while since she watched Hector's show. She clicked on the link, but then she closed it immediately.

As for Hector, all audience said he had become gloomier. They wondered if anything had happened to his relationship.

After all, he had fanfared his relationship several times before, but he stopped mentioning it afterward. Then he got more and more depressed.

The public couldn't help suspect that something was wrong with his relationship.

However, as he got depressed, his followers also grew over time.

That was their type... they could make up thousands of stories about such an upset, depressed prince.

Katherin didn't want to watch the show at all after she read those comments.

She didn't like Hector being like that, no matter how other people thought of him.

Hector should be warm and bright.

Katherin put the phone down and lay on the bed. She stared at the ceiling, hands on her stomach.

She freed her mind for a while. Later, somebody knocked at the door.

It was Frances.

Frances came over and sat by Katherin's bed. She couldn't fall asleep.

It wasn't in the middle of the night, but it wasn't early, either.

Katherin turned to look at her. "How can I help you? I'm bored, too!"

Frances sighed, "What a pity! We don't have enough people for mahjong."

Speaking of Mahjong, Kyle suddenly came to Katherin's mind.

They hadn't talked to each other for a while. The guy used to come by, and now he seemed to have disappeared for no reason.

Katherin sat up slowly, "Given how much you like mahjong, you and Kyle should be good friends. We should drop by his club someday and play a few rounds."

Frances was always a mahjong lover, which had never changed.

Frances nodded. "Kyle loves playing mahjong, too? You should tell me earlier. We could've been mahjong friends!"

Katherin laughed, "I'll give him a call. We should go to see him tomorrow if you have time."

They had been staying here for days, which was really boring. Frances even felt that something wrong was with her from head to toes.

Katherin took the phone and gave Kyle a call.

It took long for Kyle to pick up the phone.

It sounded a bit noisy on the other side, but he was definitely not playing mahjong.

Katherin asked him where he was, and Kyle answered, "ah?". Then he told her he was out.

Katherin frowned. "It's so late, and you're out alone?"

Kyle thought for a while and answered, "Yes, I'm alone."

Kathrine would've bought the answer if he had told her in the first place.

He had obviously hesitated for a while, which was why Katherine thought Kyle wasn't telling the truth.

She sighed and continued, "Do you have time tomorrow? We want to hang out in your club."

Kyle paused and said, "Of course. Just come by. I've got plenty of time for you."

Katherin squinted his eyes and replied, "OK. Let's talk tomorrow."

She patted the phone on her palm after hanging up. There must be something wrong with Kyle, and he seemed unwilling to share.

Kyle was keeping something from her.

She felt terribly curious because there might be gossip in it.

Frances was in Katherin's room, and they randomly discussed it.

Frances didn't go back to her room until Marshall was back.

Frances pushed the door open without seeing how who was in the room.

She closed the door and walked to the closet.

She took out her PJ and then went to the bathroom.

Someone sitting at the window suddenly asked, "You haven't seen me, or you're just ignoring me?"

Frances shivered and almost jumped up.

She turned to where the voice came from.

Khalid was standing at the window, with an unlit cigarette in his hand. She didn't know when he came over.

Frances still felt scared. She looked at Khalid, "When did you come back? Why didn't you tell us? You're scared me!"

Khalid frowned. "So you haven't seen me."

Frances put down her PJ. "What brings you here?"

Khalid opened the window and lit the cigarette, "Nothing, just here to check if you're doing fine."

Frances walked closer to him and said, "I'm fine. I've been away from here for a while, but this place had been my residence for 30 years. I don't feel it strange."

Khalid nodded. "Good to know."

Then he thought for a while and said, "I heard Cora came by this afternoon."

Frances was surprised that he had known. She said, "Yes, she dropped by."

Khalid seemed to be hesitating to ask, "What have you talked about?"

Frances laughed, "Nothing. They were resting so she and I talked briefly. She was surprised to find me here, so I explained it to her."

Khalid sighed, "Actually, there's no need for you to explain."

Frances paused and looked out of the window. She blinked and was a bit unhappy.

None of them said anything after that. They fell in silence, standing at the window and looking out.

It was late. Khalid finished the cigarette and looked at Frances. "You should go to bed now. I'm going to go back."

Frances nodded. "OK."

Khalid then walked out of the room.

Frances only let out a long sigh after the door was closed.

She pursed her lips and smiled, wondering what this was about.

Khalid went back to the bedroom and took a shower. When he came out, he saw a missed call on his phone.

It was Cora.

He took it over and looked at it. Then he threw it on the bed without calling her back.

As soon as he put on his PJ and was about to button it up. His phone rang again.

It was Cora again. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Khalid picked up the phone and asked, "What's wrong?"

Cora smiled at first, and then said, "Nothing. I'm bored, and I need someone to talk."

Khalid hummed and didn't say anything else.

Cora thought for a moment and said, "I went to the old house today."

Khalid sat on the bed and said, "I heard about it."

Cora's excuse was reasonable. "You took care of me for a long time when I was injured. I thought I should go by and say thank you in person."

Khalid paused and said, "No need. You're welcome."

Cora might still be smiling. "I saw Frances and Katherin when I was there. I was a bit surprised."

She was trying to dig something out of it, and Khalid could tell however, he was such a mild man and didn't care too much about it.

He answered Cora's question, "Yes, and they'll be there for a while."

Cora nodded. "That's nice. Katherin is pregnant now. She needs someone there for her."

She then chucked, "Of couse she does... yeah..."

She seemed to be convincing herself, which sounded so forced.

Khalid squeezed his brow ridge and sighed, "Cora, we've been out of touch for so many years, but I always took you as a friend. I hope you can live a good life, so I don't want to see you waste your time."
