CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 377

Katherine clinched her phone in her hands and waited for her response, but there was still no reply sent from the woman after a while later. 

'She must be busy now. Maybe she will send me a reply later.' Katherine thought to herself.

Sleepily, Katherine then put down the phone, turned over and fell asleep.

On the other side, Marshall had seen the message which Katherine had just sent him.

Katherine was not yet aware that the account owner was exactly Marshall.

Holding his smart phone in hand, Marshall looked at the message, and decided to leave her on read.

Given that he and Katherine were in embarrassment, Katherine would immediately unfriend the account if she knew that it was Marshall.

This woman was really disregarding none of his feelings and showing no mercy to him.

Marshall sighed, and walked into the lounge.

He had not been sleeping well these days, as dreams assaulted him every single night like floods and left him racked with tiredness and frustration.

His grandma thought he was currently under too much strain of work, and told him to go pamper himself between the times.

With a momentary urge to laugh, he wished his grandma was right, in which he could just pacify himself easier.

Sleeping in his lounge for a while, Marshall was woken up by a loud knock on the door.

Marshall climbed out of the bed, and saw Khalid standing outside the door with a file in his hand.

"Here, check this cooperation proposal. I'm going on a business trip in the next few days, and I want you to come along." Said Khalid.

Surprised, Marshall asked, "Wait, you mean our two?"Seldom would they ever go on one business trip together at the same time, since mostly, only one of them would be totally enough to handle it.

Khalid nodded, "Come on, you know we are both having a hard time recently. It will be a chance for us to take a breather."

Taking the file from Khalid, Marshall sat down behind the desk, flipped over the file and said, "Have you been to the hospital since then?"

Khalid pondered, and answered, "Not these two days. Aunt Willis is getting better now, and they said that she would soon be able to be discharged. It seems unnecessary for me to worry anymore."

Marshall nodded, "Where does Aunt Willis plan to go after she leaves the hospital? It was a car accident, and she still needs some time to convalesce from that."

Khalid answered with a nod, "Yes, she rented a house and hired herself a housekeeper. I think she'll be fine."

Checking through the file briefly, Marshall closed it and said, "Good. The sooner she recovers, the sooner my mom gets herself reassured."

Hearing the name of Frances, Khalid soon realized what did Marshall exactly mean.

His son was warning him.

Although Marshall never left any comments about the affair between him and Cora, he actually seemed to have a grudge against the relationship.

Khalid said, "Don't you worry about that. I know what I'm doing."

Staying in the office for a while longer, Khalid then left and headed back to his position.

Marshall checked through the file again, and discovered that they were not actually going to meet any sort of major clients, which meant it was totally unnecessary for them to go on the business trip together.
