CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 106

Katherine blinked her eyes and turned to Old Mrs. Grant, “What would you like to talk about?”

Old Mrs. Grant took a chopsticks-full of dishes and said, “Did your grandpa ever mention Marshall’s grandfather before?

Kathrine froze and thought for a while, “He mentioned something before, but nothing much.”

Old Mrs. Grant seemed interested, “What exactly? Could you tell me that?”

Old Mrs. and Mr. Grant loved each other dearly, but she remained the calmest one when he passed away.

But just as truth would have it, something can’t just be expressed explicitly.

Katherine thought that Old Mrs. Grant must be the saddest one.

After thinking for a while, Katherine told Old Mrs. Grant what her grandpa had told her before.

But her grandfather didn’t really tell her much, because when he united with Old Mr. Grant, he was even more in a bad shape.

He was already haggard from farming all his life.

So he could only tell her some past stories simply.

He and Old Mr. Grant were both in the army before.

During a field trip, he saved Old Mr. Grant’s life.

But he didn’t tell her the exact story.

He didn’t specifically say how he saved him, but after that, they became good friends.

The Grants was already a powerful and influential family back then.

But the Jordans was in abject poverty.

Then they got separated after being discharged from active military service.

Actually, Old Mr. Grant gave Old Mr. Jordan his contact and told him that should he have any difficulties, he could just contact him.

But Old Mr. Jordan was a strong-minded man and had his self-esteem, so no matter how difficult he was, he had never asked Old Mr. Grant for help.

After the military service, Old Mr. Jordan went back to the countryside to earn a living.

Then his health worsened later, so Katherine would take him to the hospital where he met the ailing Old Mr. Grant.

Katherine got aa bit teary thinking about this. “My grandfather is a tough man. But I’m a weakling and he was still worrying about me when he passed away.”

Old Mr. Jordan was an independent man all his life and for the first and last time in his life, he begged Old Mr. Grant to take care of Katherine.
