CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 207

Marshall went over and sat next to Khalid. He seemed undisturbed from the outside.

The Mr. Henderson looked at Marshall and turned to Clara smilingly, “What’s wrong? Did that Haverford boy say annoying things?”

Clara paused and hurriedly explained, “No. I didn’t really know Kyle before, so Marshall did the majority of talking.”

They both didn’t mention that Katherine was also there.

Marshall didn’t want to bring this up because he didn’t want Mrs. Grant to stir things up again.

She had been bad mouthing Katherine all afternoon in the mansion.

She would talk shitty about Katherine and just wouldn’t stop. He hated it from the beginning.

While for Clara, she didn’t mention Katherine because she was afraid that other people may find it odd that a couple was separated in two rooms and would want to call Katherine over which would be a buzzkill for her.

Mr. Henderson then nodded, “Well, that naughty Haverford boy is surly sometimes undisciplined, but young people ought to be this energetic. You two should be more like him to be more lively.”

He mainly said this to Clara who immediately got the hint.

She was always a stuffy person and Marshall was in no way better than her, so it was no easy to have chemistry between them.

Two people who can complement each other can generate love sparks.

Clara had actually thought about this before. Back when Marshall broke off their engagement, though he said he was sorry, he seemed undisturbed at all from the outside.

She can’t really tell that he was sorry or was feeling reluctant.

So Clara was aware back then that Marshall had no feelings for her.

She always thought herself as a somewhat attractive woman and had never expected to lose to a woman like Katherine.

She wouldn’t have it, never.

She was actually secretly comparing herself with Katherine recently and found that she was far better than Katherine except for the personality.

She didn’t have a powerful background nor great social etiquettes. She was really nothing apart from her sparkling yet shameless personality.

Men probably just dug for this type of girls, she thought inside.

Khalid chuckled and changed the subject to their business cooperation.

Mr. Henderson naturally followed his words and continued.

The completion of cooperation between the two companies was just a step way. All the details had been ironed out and they just need to sign the contract.

Mr. Henderson then said that he had long wanted to cooperate with the Grants and it was just that it was held up by something.

Hearing his words, all people present paused.

They all knew what he was referring to.

Mrs. Grant blinked her eyes and turned to Marshall.

Marshall was clearly absent-minded and seemed fidgety with his eyebrows slightly knitted.

Clara also took a glance of Marshall and knew what he was anxious for.

Khalid just smiled, “Well, good things are worthy of waiting. Though it was a bit delayed, our two families cooperated anyway, so in a way, it’s the same.”

Mr. Henderson glanced at Clara with the corner of his eyes and chimed in, “Right, we waited for the right thing.”

Clara then took her sight away from Marshall.

Eyes drooped, she looked at the teacup next to her and felt powerless.
