CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 506

Silent, Khalid didn’t speak until the car stopped at the gate and then he opened the door to get off. He stood next to the car and let out a breath of sigh, “Yeah, she can easily achieve it.”

Marshall was a bit confused. Not until quite a while later did he realize what Khalid meant—it was his response to what he had said minutes ago.

He smiled and followed Khalid into the company.

But he didn’t have much time to observe Khalid as busy work totally occupied him in the afternoon.

But he could tell that Khalid might be probably quite distraught after going through the awkward lunch time.

Not until dusk had Marshall finished his work.

He stretched himself and made a call to Katherine, asking where she was.

Both Katherine and Frances were still in Kyle’s club. They decided to stay for dinner.

Hearing that, Marshall hurried to require, “I am coming. Do remember to count me in!”

Katherine smiled, “If you go for dinner with us, there will be only Grandma Grant and your dad left alone at home tonight. They might be complaining about that, I suppose.”

But Marshall seemed to be determined, “It’s okay. I don’t think my absence will impact on their appetite.”

After some consideration, Katherine agreed. As it was Kyle who took charge of the club, it was all up to him.

After hanging up the phone, Marshall simply piled up the files on his desk. When it was time to get off work, he hurried to leave.

Then he happened to meet Khalid in the corridor, who walked out of the common room with his glass.

He paused and asked when seeing Marshall leave in a hurry, “Time to get off work? What are you so hurried for?”

Marshall replied, “Kathy and mom told me that they will stay out for dinner. So I am going to join them.”

Lips pressed, he slightly nodded a few seconds later, “But your grandma will be at home alone.”

Marshall raised his brows. But he didn’t continue with the topic, “So you are gonna work overtime tonight?”

Khalid nodded, “Yeah, I still got a lot of work to deal with.”

His voice sounded upset. But Marshall didn’t intend to show much care. He simply strode into the elevator after saying goodbye.

Khalid stood still while looking at his back with mixed feelings hidden in his eyes.

He felt like going back to the old days when only he and Grandma Grant were left alone at home.

Marshall then drove himself to the club.

The club was filled with joy at night. While Kyle, Katherine and Frances were all waiting for a big feast in a private box.

Meanwhile, those cooks in the kitchen were busy preparing food.

When Marshall entered the box, he saw Katherine asking for a picture with Kyle.

But Kyle covered his face to struggle reluctantly. Actually, the bruise on his cheekbone was unnoticeable, which could be easily eliminated after a retouching filter by the camera.

Kyle still kept struggling with both hands on his face.

But he didn’t exert much strength to struggle fiercely out of the concern with Katherine’s pregnancy. He just dodged the camera with his face covered by both hands.

Laughing loud, Katherine seemed to enjoy the trick.

Frances was placing dishes on the table without looking at them. She just mumbled, “Kathy, watch out. Don’t bump your belly. Kyle, just give in for a few pictures with her since she insists!”

Her words sounded like a mom who spoiled her girl.

Marshall was rendered amused when seeing that.

Kyle still yelled and struggled to resist. But Katherine managed to snap a few pictures of his.
