CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 498

Marshall paused and turned to Khalid who obviously looked awkward.

He coughed a bit and added, “Your grandma said that your mom won’t live here anymore.”

Katherine was also gazing at Khalid and was shocked that he was wearing a quite shy face at his age.

Before Marshall can say anything, Katherine answered, “Right, she won’t live here. The

Masons said that it is quite awkward for her to live here and was afraid that she might influence your future life and just called her back.”

Khalid was a bit surprised and slowly nodded in a while, “Right, I see.”

Katherine was a bit tired and just turned to Marshall, “You can stay here and chat with elder Mr. Grant. I want to have a rest.”

Marshall was still afraid that Katherine might feel uncomfortable and said that he will escort Katherine upstairs and then talk with Khalid.

Katherine glanced at Khalid before entering the room and he seemed a bit edgy.

Though Katherine wasn’t in a good mood, he felt laughing.

Marshall tucked Katherine in and then went out.

After pondering for a while, Katherine took the phone out and then texted Frances.

Frances texted back after a long time and said that she was in a quite embarrassing situation.

Katherine was pretty confused and just called Frances.

The phone got through pretty fast and was answered in a suppressed voice, “Katherine? It’s pretty late. What’s wrong?”

Katherine had a hunch that Frances was with someone and asked, “Where are you? What are you doing? I’m bored and wanted to check on you.”

Frances replied, “Right, I’m meeting a friend outside.

Katherine never heard of Frances’ friends and went on asking, “It’ll pretty late and unsafe outside.”

Frances nodded, “Yeah, you are right. I’ll be back soon.”

She then added that she would call back soon and was busy now.

Katherine then replied, “Sure, I’m be waiting for your call.”

Frances first hung up the phone.

Leaning against the headboard, Katherine felt that there must be something wrong with Frances.

Putting down the phone, Katherine started zoning out.

Her belly was feeling all right now. She must be too emotional before.

But luckily, the relationship between her and Amaya was severed for good now and she would never see her again.

After a few minutes, Frances called.

Katherine hurriedly picked it up. Frances let out a long breath and complained, “I’m so awkward before. If it weren’t for your call, I wouldn’t have got off the hook now.”

Katherine laughed, “What happened?”

Frances cracked a smile and answered, “Well, my mom said that the Grants would look down upon me now that I’m pestering at them and just set me up with a few dates.”

“What?” Katherine was taken aback. “Blind dates? It’s way too early. What’s the rush?”
