Marshall arrived at home and found it was dark in the living room.
He stayed in the car, took a cigarette, rolled down the window and lit it.
Without smoking, he simply lit the cigarette and put hands out of the window.
He sat in the car until the smoke burned out.
He got out of the car, got into the house and slowly walked upstairs.
The door of the study was closed. Marshall passed by and wondered what was Katherine doing inside.
He thought maybe she was watching books related with the driving exam and directly went back to his room.
However, Katherine, sitting in the study, was not preparing for the driving exam but was learning things about baking.
The knowledge was a must if she opened the store in the future and she knew very little of it.
She took the pen and wrote down everything. Also, she called Margaret and invited her to have a visit because she wanted to learn from her.
It was rare for her to concentrate on reading books and she didn’t even know Marshall came back.
She studied for a long time, turned around her sore neck and decided to go to the window to breath some fresh air.
Afterwards, she noticed the car parking downstairs.
She was startled and stared at the car for a long time because she thought Marshall was going to spend the whole night outside but he didn’t/
She stretched out her legs and went out.
Instead of going back to her room, she went downstairs and brought a bottle of water in the refrigerator.
The tea set was still in the living room for Mr. Grant as a birthday gift.
It would be hard to bring it to the old house.
She stayed down stairs for a while and gradually climbed the floors.
When she was standing in the corridor, she looked at the direction where Marshall leaved. The door was closed and she couldn’t see anything.
Katherine snorted and went back to her room.
Katherine and Marshall started cold war out of no reason that both of them couldn’t figure out.
Mr. Grunt’s birthday was on the weekend and Marshall woke up early to go to the old house.
When he got downstairs, Katherine was making breakfast.
He observed her when standing on the stairs and frowned.
The unexpected anxiety haunted him. His head ached so much when thinking he was going to act in front of everyone today, pretending to be a loved couple.
Marshall went downstairs and stood beside the sofa, saying, “Let’s go to the old house early and have breakfast there.”
Katherine turned around to look at him and replied, “You can go first. I will arrive in the afternoon.”
People in the old house didn’t welcome her and it would be so boring to stay there for a whole day.
Marshall stared at her for a few seconds and replied calmly, “As you like.”
Then he turned around and left.
Katherine didn’t care what he thought at all. She made the breakfast, hummed a tone and went to the kitchen.
She put the phone on the table and looked through many entertaining news, finding they were nothing but boring made up lies.
Then she checked the financial news and thought it was more interesting.
She found a piece of news saying that after the Henderson family and the Grant family cooperated successfully, the former one started to get in touch with the Haverford family, seeming to have the intention to cooperate with them.
Well, it was interesting. Katherine thought at first that the Henderson family came to the Haverford family with a reason. They must have an intention.
The Henderson family was trying to portray Clara as a perfect girl.
