CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 499

Marshall just nodded, “Sure.”

He didn’t say anything else as he was in no position to comment on these things.

Khalid actually felt odd to bring up Willis and just added, “There is nothing between me and Willis. She said that she had moved on and I believed her.”

Marshall replied, “Well, it’s probably so.”

Then after chatting other things for a while, they went to their bedrooms.

Marshall opened the door and saw Katherine curling up on the bed.

He then went over and stood by the bedside and looked down on Katherine who looked actually a bit miserable in her position.

Marshall then turned around and went to shower.

Katherine didn’t even move when he came back.

Marshall heaved a sigh and went to bed cautiously and hugged her into his chest.

Katherine was still sleeping but was clearly having bad dreams.

Eyebrows knitted, she looked pretty sad.

Marshall unfurled Katherine’s eyebrows and said, “Take it easy. Don’t be sad.”

Katherine mumbled grandpa in her dreams.

Marshall felt incredibly soft inside and hugged her even closer and just let out a sigh.

Well, it would probably take him more than one lifetime to make up for the pains he caused to Katherine.

Katherine didn’t sleep well the whole night and woke up at daylight.

Marshall was still sleeping next to her.

She couldn’t fall back to sleep anymore and just grabbed a clothes and went out.

She slowly strolled towards the back yard. As people were still in their dreams at this time, the whole mansion was in dead silence.

She straight passed the back door and went into the bamboo forest along the neat path.

There were still dewdrops in the air in the forest, so Katherine was taking a slow walk.

She didn’t reach the topmost point and just stopped after feeling tired.

She then took a rest on a big rock.

After taking a break for a while, Katherine heard sound coming from the bamboo forest and just stared at the path.

A person then showed up from the turn in a moment.

Katherine cracked a smiled, “What are you doing so early?”

Lucas paused when he saw Katherine, “You are alone here?”

Katherine answered, “Yeah, I couldn’t sleep and want to take a walk.”

Lucas then walked over to her side, “Me too. I couldn’t sleep and can’t stand just laying on the bed, so I just went out.”

Lucas still got dews on his hair after a lap.

It was a huge rock and Katherine motioned, “Don’t you want to have a break?”

Lucas examined the rock and saw down.

Katherine looked at the bamboo forest, “This is my first time to see this view so early. It felt great.”

Lucas chucked, “Well, not for me. I’ve got used to this scenery.”

After pausing for a while, Katherine said, “I heard that you are taking over all the tasks from cooperating with the Hendersons. Would it be troublesome?”

“Nah, not really.” Lucas stopped and continued, “The Hendersons also changed the person in charge after I took over. I really don’t know what are they thinking about.”

Well, Katherine figured out the reason immediately.

But she just raised the corner of her mouth and didn’t say anything.
