Marshall had not replied to Kyle.
Kyle didn’t know if Marshall was socializing or simply didn't see the message.
Kyle couldn't resist sending Marshall another message. This time he directly told Marshall his location.
He said that Katherine was having dinner with him and they had a good time, almost got carried away.
Kyle was obviously even better at making things up than Katherine.
After sending the message, he put the phone away and didn't let Katherine read the content of the message.
Katherine didn’t quite care, after taking a few bites, she simply drank the juice while listening to Mr. Henderson and Rosalie talk about business.
And business was something that Katherine knew about but not quite understood.
It’s just that whether she understood it or not, she had to look like she did.
Katherine leaned back in her chair with a relaxed expression and a shallow smile on her face.
She was neither humble nor pushy.
In fact, among all the people in this private room, she’s the only one with not so good status background.
The rest of these people were all from distinguished backgrounds, only she was a girl from the countryside.
Mr. Henderson chatted so energetically that he could no longer care about how Katherine was doing.
It was his wife who kept an eye on Katherine.
Katherine now looked not quite the same as what she saw at the dinner party that day.
Katherine was a bit arrogant that day, with mischief in her eyes.
But she's different today. She looked calm, and her eyes were as clear as water.
Elder Mrs. Henderson sneered and thought that such a woman could never be a stupid woman.
She was smarter than the average woman.
It looked like they underestimated her.
Katherine was naturally aware of elder Mrs. Henderson's gawking at her.
She was gorgeous, so she was not afraid of being looked at. She even winked at elder Mrs. Henderson when no one else noticed.
The way she acted really upset elder Mrs. Henderson.
Elder Mrs. Henderson was an old lady and naturally knew what’s on Katherine’s mind.
So she pursed her lips and turned her eyes away with a snort.
Katherine also turned her eyes and looked at Kyle beside her, and said with a voice so low that only the two of them could hear, “This kind of dinner, indeed, is boring, if I had known I would not come either.”
Kyle asked twice, “That's why I told you that if you don't come, I won't come either.”
Katherine thought about it and asked, “But did the Henderson family make it clear that they were inviting you? Look, they didn't care about you the whole time.”
Kyle was a bit embarrassed and hurriedly said, “I heard my old man say that the Henderson family wants to invite us to dinner and I must be there. That should be a special invitation to me, right?”
Katherine responded with an “oh”.
Kyle hurriedly said again, “They invited me, for sure.”
Katherine smiled, she pretty much knew what was going on.
Next, Katherine sat quietly over there, chatting with Kyle occasionally.
Her performance was quite appropriate.
The dinner dragged on and on and still hadn’t ended yet. Mr. Henderson was talking more and more, and only Rosalie could still talk with him.
The two talked about all kinds of things, and not just limited to the business.
