CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 369

Katherine thought that Hector wouldn’t be able to text back soon as it was late and he was having a closed training.

But Hector just called her after the text was sent out.

Katherine hurriedly took the call.

Hector smiled, “Katherine.”

Katherine said after pausing for a while, “I thought you were asleep now.”

“Not yet. I was discussing the next competition with Rosalie.” The result must be great as Hector sounded merry.

Katherine meant to question him, but those serious words just got stuck at her throat as her emotion was disturbed by Hector’s.

She the nodded, “I watched your performance. It was the best. Your voice was beautiful.”

Hector replied, “Well, I was all right. I was actually afraid that I would fall short.”

Katherine hesitated, “Well, on the stage... you... you said...”

Hector chuckled and immediately knew what Katherine was trying to say, “Is this about the speech I delivered?”

Katherine replied yes indistinctly.

Hector let out a breath, “Actually, we talked about this when we were training. Nowadays, the show would have a segment when one had to invite a fellow singer to do the performing. In order to hype up the show, the program director would ask us to do the whole coupling thing. Rosalie talked to about this before and I didn’t really like it, so I chose to say that I got a girlfriend on the stage at first to avoid publicity stunt afterwards. I really wish to get fan support through my real talent.”

Katherine didn’t really understand this kind of stuff, but she had seen some coupling news online before.

She nodded and felt slightly at ease, “Right...”

Hector cracked a smile, “It’s all right. No pressure here, okay?

Katherine thought for a while and figured that she was not in the showbiz anyway, so it wouldn’t be a big problem.

So she changed the subject and asked Hector what he was about to do next.

Hector replied, “Well, for now, I still have to get this closed training and would perform on stage when I have to till the final rank of the show comes out.”

It would take a long time.

Katherine thought for a minute and felt there was nothing to say, so she just told Hector to ace the game.

Hector nodded, “I really miss you and hope this show can be over soon.”

Hector still got stuff to do, so he hung up the phone after Katherine told him to take care of himself.

Katherine finally felt better after the phone call.

After putting away the phone, Katherine let out a long sigh and finally dozed off.

For the next few days, Katherine and Marshall seemed to be giving each other the silent treatment.

Katherine didn’t know what Marshall was up to, but she was really hectic recently and was really merry as Marshall didn’t go to disturb her.

She was really contented and didn’t care if Marshall was angry or not.

After all, she got nothing to do with him.

After a few days, Margaret felt pretty weird and asked Katherine, “Why didn’t Mr. Grant come over these days? Did you two have a fight?”

Katherine chuckled, “Not really. Isn’t it perfectly normal that he doesn’t come here? We have nothing to do with each other anyway, so we really shouldn’t meet for no reason.”

Margaret stared at Katherine for a while and then took back the words that she was trying to say.

Marshall was actually swamped these days, but it was not about work.

He was investigating Margaret’s kidnap accident.

Though there was no evidence to prove that those kidnappers were after Katherine, it just felt strange when they would abduct Margaret and then drop her off.

Marshall had a gut feeling that this must be related to Katherine, so he had to get to the bottom of it.
