CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 432

Frances didn't talk to Frances for long. Having been rejected, she added a few pleasantries and then hung up.

Frances put down the phone and smiled slowly.

Her disappointment in Clara was based on the speculation that Clara was using her.

The phone call just now only made her more disappointed.

Clara wouldn't have made the phone call if she hadn't seen Frances be with Marshall and Katherine today.

It was all because she found she could use Frances again.

That girl could be pretty calculating.

Frances put down the phone and then lay down. She stared at the ceiling with a smile. Later she fell asleep.

Marshall didn't come back until quite a while later.

Katherine was in a sound sleep when somebody felt being held in somebody's arms. Then a strong smell of alcohol hit her nose.

She felt a bit uncomfortable, so she pushed him.

Marshall was drunk. He called Katherine by her name and said, "I'm thrilled."

Katherine squinted his eyes and looked at Marshall. His face was red. She said, "I don't understand."

Marshall closed his eyes and asked, "About what?"

Katherine's voice became even lower. "About how I got pregnant."

She couldn't help thinking about the issue when she was idle in the past two days.

Her period was always regular. She thought she should be safe based on the calendar-based methods. The methods weren't 100% accurate, but Katherine thought it was doubtful that she could be one of the rare "lucky" ones.

She couldn't believe he hit the target within one shot.

She couldn't get over it. So she thought about it again and again, but she failed to figure anything out.

Marshall paused for a while and said, "What do you think? I tried, and we succeed."

Katherine turned over and took the Marshall's hand off her. She then said, "No, I was under meds, and the only time I was out of meds was during the rhythm."

She might have thought about this question too much these days, and thus she couldn't help recalling those intimate moments they had.

She might have mixed it with other times.

However, in the depth of her memory, she felt something else indeed had happened.

She just couldn't make it out.

Marshall sneered and turned over. He faced up and closed his eyes. "What are you struggling for? The kid's mine. That's all I need."

Katherine thought for a while and turned again to turn his back to Marshall. Then she said, "I just can't be sure when I conceived the baby."

Marshall felt a bit dizzy due to the alcohol. He was about to fall asleep.

He wanted to end this conversation, but he didn't know how. He said, "Maybe it was that time when you were drunk. I stopped halfway and picked you up to come home. We did it several times that night. There must be one time..."

Katherine was taken aback. She looked at Marshall and exclaimed, "That day was..."

She was going through baby brain recently, and it had taken him quite a while to figure out which time Marshall was talking about.

Hector's attitude towards her became a bit odd after that day.

She also saw Hector's cell phone. It had been broken and tossed in the yard.

Katherine thought about it over and was finally sure about it. She found sheets in the washing machine that day. It had been washed and yet to be hung up.

She remembered to have asked Marshall, but he told her it was because she had drunk too much the night before and vomited on it.

She didn't think twice.

She trusted him so much.

That man was a jerk.

Katherine pulled a long face and sat on the bed slowly. She was screaming inside while remaining calm on the outside. "When how did the room seem unchanged the next day? You've never mentioned it to me."

Marshall had already fallen asleep. Katherine raised her hand and pushed him. "Why did you pretend that nothing had happened. Tell me."

She tried to keep her voice down and make herself sound as calm as possible.

Marshall unconsciously grabbed her hand and nagged, "Stop it, K."

Stop it? She was almost losing control of herself.

She jumped off the bed, standing and staring at Marshall

She wanted to kill him.

She would definitely take the pills if he had told her what had happened the night before.

She would never let it happen and make herself suffer so much now. She didn't want to carry his child.

It was a pity that they didn't have a child when they were married. Now that their marriage was over, it was not good timing to have a child anyway.
