CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 417

The man didn’t slow down a bit. On the contrary, he accelerated when he was near Katherine.

Marshall was quick-witted and as he had realized that he wouldn’t be able to protect Katherine now, he just released Katherine and stepped aside.

In this way, Katherine was directly facing the man. Her mind instantly went blank.

She was one month into the pregnancy and would definitely lose this baby once hit.

While the man was about to strike her, Marshall suddenly lifted his leg and kicked the man at the side.

The man didn’t expect Marshall’s move and wasn’t taking any precautions, so he was just kicked over to the ground.

Marshall must have used all his might since he also stepped back because of the reacting force.

The man experienced quite a blow and didn’t recover for a while.

Marshall went to hug the ghastly pale Katherine in his arms and asked, “Are you okay?”

Katherine was still protecting her belly and said in a while, “I’m all right.”

Marshall looked down and unwittingly frowned when he sensed Katherine’s behavior. Something fled right through his mind, but before he can grasp the image, the idea had disappeared.

Marshall then turned to the man in the ground sternly.

His leg was even a bit numb because of the strong kick.

The man was whining in the ground like he was seriously hurt somewhere.

His earphones were swung aside.

Marshall went to pick them up and didn’t hear a thing.

He paused and searched the man’s pocket for his phone.

The phone wasn’t playing any music.

Marshall sneered and went through the man’s call history.

The latest call was from a few minutes ago and judged from its call duration, it was just hung up seconds ago.

Marshall’s face immediately darkened.

He stood up and treaded the man on the ribs, “Who sent you here?”

Katherine was shocked by Marshall’s question and turned to Marshall, “He is ordered by someone?”

The man acted like he didn’t hear Marshall’s question and was still shrieking on the ground.

Covering his elbow, the man looked like he was in real pain.

As he wasn’t guarding against Marshall’s sudden kick, the man was propping against his whole body with his hands when he fell down.

Then his elbow just hit on the ground entirely which sent sharp pain all over his body.

But Marshall didn’t care about him at all and just exerted his strength on his feet more, “Who asked you to do this?”

There were spectators around debating what was going on.

Licking his back teeth, Marshall let out a gruesome smile, “Do you think you can just get out of this by keeping silent?”

He then surveyed the man’s phone and then dialed a number with his own phone.

Those bystanders just assumed that he was calling the police or the ambulance and just dispersed thinking that there was nothing juicy here to see.

The man was so consumed with his elbow pain that he didn’t even try to fight back.

Standing aside, Katherine leaned against a lamp-post.

Her heart was racing crazily, but still, she was clear-minded.

She would only get some bruises at best if she was hit at other times which wasn’t even worth of hiring someone specifically, so someone must be plotting against her with other motives.

What would happen to her once she was knocked under her current situation was that person’s true agenda.

Someone must have learned about her pregnancy and didn’t want this baby to be born.

Frances first came to her mind.

Frances was the only one now who knew that she was pregnant and wanted to hurt her.

But Katherine quickly doubted her thought when she recalled Frances’ reaction.
