CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 468

Katherine went to the yard with cellphone in hand and answered the phone.

The woman, who made the call said to her smilingly, “Kathy, are you busy? Why not answer my phone call?”

Katherine lowered her voice, a little annoyed, “As you know, I am busy and it’s not convenient for me to answer the phone. Why you call me again and again?”

The woman stopped, seemingly a bit awkward, for only for a few seconds. Then she smiled and said, “When I called you last time, you did not speak. Your sister, who misses you much, did not hear your voice. She just wants to talk to you now.”

Katherine replied straight-forward, “I have no sisters. Why you don’t understand that? I have explained to you for many times. Now I tell you again. I have no relationships with you as well. Please don’t bother me anymore.”

The voice of the other side lowered, “Kathy, don’t act like that. You broke my heart.”

Katherine said in a cold voice, regardless of the woman’s feelings, “I tell you. I clearly know what’s in your mind. Don’t think nobody knows the conspiracy made by Reuben Jordan and you. You are delusional. I will never be your daughter.”

The woman’s voice became lower, “Kathy, I’m your mother. How can you saying to me in this way?”

Katherine sneered, “I don’t have mother. My mother died long time ago. I have no kinsfolks in this world, none. They all died.”

The woman seemed to be upset by the word “died”, she said in a cold voice, “well, OK, as you act in this way, don’t blame us for anything.”

Isn’t it sounds much better than before by saying in this way?

Katherine did not know why the woman pretended to care her like playing a drama. Is it better to be herself and adhere to her principles?

Katherine hung up the cellphone directly.

Then she stood still to let herself calm down. Otherwise others would easily found that she was upset.

She stood for a moment there. Before she completely calmed down, a hand was put on her shoulder.

Frances stood behind her, asked in a low and soft voice, “Are you okay? Tell me, who made the call? A guy you dislike?”

Katherine looked back and murmured, “Yep, a guy I dislike.”

Frances looked at Katherine, “If you were in trouble, just ask for help. We all here by your side.”

“It’s all right,” Katherine said, “It doesn’t matter.”

Frances sighed, “You have your own opinion. You know what to do. I will not say more.”

Katherine and Frances stood for a while before they returned back to the living room.

The two Grandma Grant could read others’ feelings very well. Although Katherine restrained to show her upset, they noticed that.

Grandma Grant smiled, “Kathy, come here to tell me what makes you unhappy.”

Katherine tried to make her look as normal, “Nothing to worry about. I am just a little tired. ”

Katherine did not have the breakfast. Frances then remembered that and asked Darcie to quickly get something to eat for Katherine.

Grandma Grant looked at Katherine for quite a while, but without asking too much eventually.

Marshall came back at noon. He found the visitors were not leave. They were invited for lunch by Frances.

Marshall walked into the room to see whether Katherine was there. Then he said, “Where is Katherine?”

“When you came in, you just looked for your wife. All of us are not as important as your wife,” Frances hummed.

Marshall smiled, “Is she upstairs? Is she sleeping?”

“Yep,” Grandma Grant answered, “She sat here and chatted with us. She looked a little tired, so we let her go upstairs to have a rest. We will call her at lunch time.”

“Good,” Marshall said. Then he thought it over and said, “I shall go upstairs to see her.”

Maddie Nicholson then laughed, “I have not seen Marshall act like that before. Every gentleman would give the golden apple to Venus like Paris indeed.”

Marshall smiled and went upstairs without answering to her comments.

Katherine was lying on the bed. It seemed that she was asleep.

Quietly Marshall walked towards her and sat by her side. He gently traced her hair with his hand.

Katherine immediately opened her eyes.
