CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 337

Marshall worked overtime in the company and saw Frances standing in the lobby when he just got off the elevator.

Thinking about what Frances had done before, he looked irritated.

But Frances acted like nothing had happened and hugged Marshall’s arms, “I’ve been waiting here for a long time. I thought that you would work to the midnight. It’s a good thing that you are hard-working, but you need to take care your body. Don’t you feel tired?”

Marshall stared at Frances and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Frances dropped her hand and took a sigh, “I passed by the company and wanted to check on you. The receptionist said that you haven’t left yet, so I figured that I will wait here.”

She then took Marshall’s arms and said, “Let’s go have the dinner together.”

Marshall actually felt exhausted and wanted to go home.

But Frances was clutching at him tightly, “Your grandparents are pretty mad at me recently and would lecture me at every meal. I really don’t feel like eating at home. I’m already miserable. Why can’t they understand me? They would just blame me.”

Marshall then didn’t know how to reject.

He knew that Frances was having a hard time, but she brought it on herself.

Then they got on Marshall’s car.

Frances then said, “Let’s go. I know a place that you would definitely like. There are not many diners at this time, so they must have spots available.”

Marshall remained silent and just drove to the address that Frances was talking about.

The restaurant was not in the downtown area and there were not many cars parking in front of it.

It looked like that its business was not exactly good.

Marshall looked at the plaque and asked, “Did it taste good here?”

Frances giggled, “Why don’t you try it yourself?”

She then dragged Marshall into the restaurant that was pretty empty. Seeing that they were here, the waiter immediately greeted, “A table for two?”

Frances answered, “I’ve booked a private room.”

The waiter blinked her eyes and said, “Got it. Please follow me.”

While Frances and Marshall just entered the room, the waiter brought in the menu.

Frances waved her hand, “We’ll be needing that in a minute.”

Marshall frowned, “Are we waiting for someone?”

Frances chuckled, “No, let’s get the drinks first. I waited for such a long time and feel quite thirsty.”

She then really ordered a pitcher of juice and started reading the menu.

The private room door was opened in a minute.

But instead of the waiter, it was Clara who came in.

Clara was still speaking while opening the door, “The traffic is really backed up, auntie, I...”

Then she stopped and looked awkward.

Marshall’s face immediately darkened upon seeing Clara, but Frances didn’t really sense his anger and just hurriedly stood up, “Clara, you are finally here. Come and grab a seat.”

Clara then slowly took her seat and said awkwardly, “I didn’t know Marshall is also here.”

Frances then answered the question for Marshall, “Right, I dropped by the company on my way here and figured why don’t we have dinner together. Here is the menu. Let’s see what do you want to eat.”

Clara looked hesitated and took the menu after glancing at Marshall.

Marshall was really irritated. He knew that there was something weird about Frances today and just realized what was she up to.

Clara didn’t dare to order too much and just handed the menu to Marshall who didn’t take it.

Frances then got the menu, “This fish looks great. Marshall, do you like this? Let’s order one and give it a try.”

Marshall got a cigarette from his pocket and lighted it without answering Frances which was a clear sign that he was angry,
