CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 283

Katherine had heard from Kyle that Clara had hired a bulk of online supporters to add fuel to the fire.

Seeing that the topic was shifted to that, Katherine then curled her lips up and remained silent.

Rosalie smiled, "It is actually understandable, since Clara and Marshall had already gotten engaged before you suddenly appeared and took Marshall away. You know, Clara is clearly not resigned to that."

The grievance for something unobtainable was one of the most terrible human natures, which, sometimes, would even drive people crazy for something they didn't actually want, and, at last, bring them with nothing but waste of their effort and the suffering of others.

Rosalie then continued, "Therefore, that is why I say that they are not the right one for us. I don't like to associate and do business with these kinds of people."

Katherine nodded, "Now, I see."

On the other hand, Mr. Haverford was chatting with Hector about his family.

Implicitly, he just told Mr. Haverford that everything was seemingly fine: he still needed time to get familiar with his work, and the members of Bennett Family were leading quite a peaceful and normal life with each other.

Looking at Hector for a while, Rosalie whispered to Katherine, "I think if Hector is really going to find another career, attending the talent show and becoming a singing star will be an advisable option for him. He won't last long staying in the company of his family."

Katherine answered, "Indeed. It's really hard for him."

Katherine thought that Hector was leading a tough life filled with adversities and dilemmas, which was even more complicated and bitter than that of her.

Not until it was dark were Katherine and Hector be going to leave.

Kyle wanted to go with them, while Rosalie caught his collar and stopped him, "It's been a long time since the last time you stayed here and accompanied dad. Don't you try to run away this time."

Gritting his teeth like a child, Kyle failed to say anything to refute his older sister.

Rosalie ordered her driver to send Katherine and Hector home.

In the car, Hector told the driver to drive to her home first.

Without refusing it, she was still delightedly talking about the hospitality and amicability of Haverford Family's people.

After a while, they arrived at Katherine's home.

As Katherine got out of the car, Hector followed as well.

Dumbfounded, Katherine asked, "What's wrong?"

Hector smiled, "Nothing. I shall watch you go inside."

Katherine laughed, "I'm fine! Are you worried if there is anyone breaking into my house or what?"

Stepping into the front yard, she then unlocked the front door with her fingerprint, and turned to Hector, "Don't worry about me. I'm doing fine! Just go."

Hesitate for awhile, Hector turned back into the car.

Katherine changed her shoes at the doorway, and as she walked to the staircase, her phone rang — Hector was calling in.

She turned around and looked outside of the window, seeing that Hector got out of the car at full speed and rushed into the yard.

Confusedly, Katherine walked to the door and opened it, "What…"

Hector put down the phone immediately, and put one finger on his lips to hint at keeping quiet.

He then whispered, "Get in the car and wait for me."

The driver also got out of the car and stood aside.

Katherine, in confusion, asked Hector, "What happened?"

Hector pointed upwards and said in a low voice, "Someone is up there."

Katherine was stunned and continued, "What? Where? Is that he is in my house?"

Hector answered quietly, "The one is on the second floor. Just go out for a while."

Katherine was frightened to hear that someone had secretly broken into her house. She then nodded, left the living room and quietly gave the driver tips to come in and help Hector, since she had no idea about what was waiting for Hector and her in the house.

The driver soon came in as well. Without getting into the car, she searched around the whole yard and grabbed a stick from the corner.

The stick was previously the handling of a mop, which was broken in a house cleaning.

Waving the stick, Katherine thought that it was a good enough weapon to defend herself, and then went back to the living room with the stick in her hands.

Both Hector and the driver were slowly waking up the stairs.
