CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 191

When Katherine woke up the next day, she didn’t see Marshall’s car. But then again, she didn’t exactly wake up early. She had no idea if Marshall came back and went out again, or if he just didn’t come back at all. Standing in front of the window, she snorted lightly, and turned around to the bathroom. Not in the mood for cooking, she stepped out to dine after she was done getting ready.

Katherine took out her phone at the breakfast joint.

Well, well, well. What a massive turn of event, after just a day of not browsing the Internet.

There seemed to be a new twist to Marshall’s alleged alcohol-induced cheating. The Grants had released the surveillance tapes from that hotel on Asela Island, which proved that Katherine was indeed with Marshall in a room. And there was that Dolly woman who, scantily clad, went to the hotel to knock on Marshall’s door – but then he didn’t let her in. In fact, judging by what was recorded on tape, she and Marshall were having a rather unpleasant conversation. After a while, hotel security showed up and appeared to ask Dolly to leave. That got people guessing if Marshall made a direct complaint to the hotel, which propelled them to throw her out. If that was true, then Dolly’s account of what happened would differ from the real story.

Katherine clicked her tongue.

What an extraordinarily calculating man Marshall is. Leave it to a true businessman to get out of absolutely everything by asking the company to do all his dirty work while he himself stood by and watched. Marshall Grant wouldn’t get into the slightest bit of trouble no matter how rough it got.

Katherine put down the phone and started attacking her food.

After breakfast, she went to the dessert store.

Margaret opened the store this time. With the store empty still, she was busying cleaning up.

“There you are,” Margaret said, immediately flashing a smile when she saw Katherine, “I was just about to contact you. I called the landlord yesterday, who said that he was coming in today so that you two could meet and talking about the renting deal.”

Katherine paused briefly before asking, “When’s he coming?”

“In the afternoon, he said,” Margaret answered after thinking about it, “I’ll call you when he gets here.”

Katherine nodded carelessly, her mind otherwise occupied.

She’d never done any sort of business before, so she had no idea the actual rent of commercial spaces in this area, let alone the demands she was supposed to make when negotiating with a landlord.
