Marshall went over and took a seat. "Well, what are you talking about?"
Both Katherine and Peter were stunned, but Katherine smiled first. "We’re talking about the dinner party."
Now that she mentioned it, somehow, Marshall remembered the fact that he had hung Katherine out to dry and felt a little embarrassed.
When he found Katherine under the tree, she was leaning back on the bench, her head throwing back, her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.
However, she looked a little pitiful at the same time.
She even smiled at him the moment she opened her eyes and saw him.
It was a helpless smile, but also a relieved one.
In a word, that smile got on his nerves.
Marshall asked, "What exactly about the dinner party?"
Peter threw a look at Katherine.
Katherine replied immediately, "What else could it be? We’re talking about the video of the village school. Many people claimed that they felt terrible at that time, but who knows whether they really felt terrible or they were just putting on a show."
Marshall picked up the chopsticks. "I think they did feel terrible, but just at that moment. When the video ended, they forgot the whole thing."
Katherine asked Peter to take a seat.
She put the food she liked in front of herself and asked in passing. "What were you doing before we came back? You were gone for a long time."
Marshall replied in a flat voice. "The donation session would begin a while later. Although we came out of the banquet hall, we still had to open the wallet, so I went to the organizer to tell him about the number I would donate."
Now Katherine realized what had been going on.
If someone came to such a charity event and left halfway without giving money, people would gossip about him.
Katherine breathed a sigh. "Why do I feel like you’re forced to open your wallet?"
While pretending to be most willing.
