CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 449

In the afternoon, Katherine took a walk in the community with Frances.

Even though they were walking around the neighborhood, there were still guards following behind all the way.

Obviously, Katherine was feeling a bit uneasy.

Frances was soothing her beside, saying that security should come first.

As soon as Frances finished her words, her phone rang.

She paused and could tell who was calling.

She took a deep breath and looked at Katherine, “I think it must be Clara. I haven’t talked to her during these days. So she comes for me this time, I suppose.”

Katherine smiled, “Alright, just answer it. I am curious to know what she is going to talk about this time.”

Actually, it would be likely a common chat only through the phone. Besides, Clara was also aware that the relationship between Frances and Katherine had been softened. So she didn’t intend to speak ill of Katherine in front of Frances like what she used to do before.

Frances put her on speaker and said, “Hello, Clara.”

Frances still greeted in the old way.

Katherine took a look at her, noticing that she learned to be more cunning to cover up her own feelings, which she had rarely done before.

Clara responded with a smile and asked if she had time.

Katherine patted on Frances’s shoulder and nodded to beckon.

So Frances said yes, “Of course, what’s the matter?”

Clara wanted to ask for a hang-out with her, saying that she fancied doing some shopping because of the tempting accounts in the mall.

Frances sounded a bit surprised, “Oh, aren’t you busy working? Have you finished your work about your business? You should be still working at this moment, right?”

Clara sighed, “I am still busy. But working always appears to be endless. So I decide to drop it temporarily to get some work-life-balance. After all, we still need time to relax, innit?”

Her cute voice sounded again, “Well, I have come to visit one of my clients today. And now I have finished my job. So I just fancy taking a little break and I don’t feel like getting back to the office in the afternoon.”

Frances smiled, “Okay, I see.”

Clara then asked again if she could go shopping with her right now.

Frances took a look at Katherine and then agreed, “Okay, I am free now.”

Clara sounded quite happy. Then she told her to meet at the gate of a mall.

Frances agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Frances sighed, “She hasn’t been so enthusiastic about meeting me before. Now I wonder if I was being too stupid to be deemed hard to deal with.”

Katherine nodded, “Yeah, you were being too stupid.”

Frances soon wore a sullen face and huffed, “Hey, I said so because I wanna get comforted, not to get a yes.”

Katherine chuckled.

Frances checked the time, “Alright, I need to get myself changed. I would like to see what she is up for this time.”

Then both of them turned around to go home.

Katherine returned to her own room while Frances got herself changed. She spruced herself up and said goodbye to Katherine.

Frances dressed as casual as usual.

When she reached the mall, Clara had been waiting over there.

She was sitting on a bench on the square in front of the mall. She looked relaxed.

Frances walked over, “Clara, you have been waiting for long?”

Clara paused and hurried to stand up, “No, I was just waiting for a while. Before that, I simply walked around.”

She walked over to hold France’s arm, looking friendly and humble, “Come on, let’s go.”

Frances nodded, still looking friendly as well.

As now it was the period for seasonal new fashion line, there were all kinds of sales campaigns.
