Marshall’s expression froze for a few seconds and smiled, “Yes, you’re right.”
Old Mrs. Grant looked at him and said, “You have been married for almost a year and really should consider that thing.”
Everyone could understand what old Mrs. Grant meant.
Katherine showed an unnatural expression and said, “Well, grandma, about that….”
Marshall interrupted her and said, “We have been discussing about having a baby. However, it really depends on luck and we cannot rush. What we think is that is good if she really carries a baby, if not, we won’t be anxious.”
Mrs. Grant kept squeezing eyes to hint Marshall.
What was he talking about? They already got divorced. What would be their relation if they really had a baby?
Mr. Grant also showed a surprised expression but he didn’t behave in Mrs. Grant’s way.
He looked at somewhere else and lowered his head to have meals. After a while, he said, “I really want to be grandpa. It’s a bless to have a baby around.”
Katherine held the spoon and didn’t know how to respond.
Should she smile? Or should she be shy?
Old Mrs. Grant looked at her and said, “Drink some. It tastes good.”
Katherine smiled and took several sips.
It was of a good taste and should have been boiled for a few hours for the bones to split from the meat.
Marshall turned to look at Katherine and couldn’t help curling up his lip.
Although it was inappropriate, he fancied a small-sized Katherine to have meals out of no reason.
Clara didn’t even raise up her head and kept eating.
Mrs. Grant glanced at her and felt content with her characteristic.
It was hard for her to remain calm. That was the daughter-in-law she wanted and she should be Marshall’s wife.
Lucas sat opposite to Clara. He looked at her and asked, “Miss Henderson, are you accustomed to working in the company?”
Clara was startled and never expected Lucas would give her a chance to speak.
She smiled after a few seconds and replied, “Yes. Because I have done internship in the company and know many things about the job I am doing now. It’s not hard for me.”
Mrs. Grant hurriedly said, “Yes. She’s really a smart girl and can do a good job in the business world. I don’t know who would be so lucky to have her as girlfriend. It’s a pity that our family…”
Old Mrs. Grant glanced at her coldly and said, “It seems the food can’t block your month.”
Mrs. Grant suddenly stopped talking.
Although old Mrs. Grant had scolded her many times recently, it was the first time she directly went against her in front of so many people. Mrs. Grant felt ashamed and didn’t dare say anything.
Mr. Grant also thought Mrs. Grant went too far.
She behaved similarly with the day when forcing Katherine to bring Kyle.
Mr. Grant also frowned and said, “It’s not your turn to worry who Miss Henderson will marry with. Mind your own business.”
Mrs. Grant flushed and opened her eyes widely.
There were four Grant families and they didn’t get along with them. Seeing she was scolded by old Mrs. Grant and Mr. Grant, none of them help her out.
They simply turned to glance at her and what they behaved was more like making fun of her.
Mrs. Grant compressed her lips and her heart pounded quickly.
However, she didn’t dare say anything in such occasion and could only repress herself.
Clara was also embarrassed on the other side like Mrs. Grant.
Everyone in the Grant family she was going to marry Marshall at first.
They had already decided the wedding day when Katherine suddenly appeared and took everything from her.
With old Mrs. Grant and Mr. Grant’s words, she could be sure that it was impossible for she and Marshall to restart their relation.
Clara took a deep breath, looked at the food in her bowl and didn’t want to eat anything.
