When Marshall was going to be off duty, he went to have another look in Khalid’s office.
With documents piled on his office table and one of them half open, seeming to be half looked through, Khalid was not in the room.
Marshall stared at the empty table for a while and turned around to leave.
He directly drove to the old house. After getting off, he deliberately checked the parking lot and didn’t find Khalid’s car. It seemed Khalid didn’t return home.
Knowing Khalid go outside without even returning home, Marshall could already know what he was doing.
Marshall turned around to the main building. After walking a few steps, he found Lydia was coming from the garden.
She was in a delicate dress up and seemed to go outside.
Lydia was startled to find Marshall arrive.
However, she then showed a smiled and remarked, “Well, Marshall is back. You really have a better relation with Kathy for checking her even during the lunch time.”
Marshall simply greeted her and didn’t say anything.
Lydia nodded and continued, “Marshall, well, to be honest, you really have to grab the chance to remarry Kathy. If you are still not married, many changes will happen to your marriage.”
Marshall purled up his lip and replied, “Never mind. Getting married can’t compared with having a baby. Simply owning a marriage license still has the possibility to put the relation on edge, but having a baby is different.”
Lydia looked at him and laughed out, noting, “You really look on the bright side.”
Marshall nodded towards her. He didn’t say anything else but went directly to the main building.
Old Mrs. Grant and Katherine were not downstairs. Marshall noticed servants were preparing lunch in the kitchen. Hence, he looked around and went upstairs.
Katherine was asleep. Marshall opened the door to get in and kept his voice down.
He slowly sat by Katherine’s side and rubbed her hair gently.
Hector already decided his time to take a vacation. Although his free days weren’t be long, it was enough for him to have a good rest.
After he came back, Marshall thought it was the time to make everything clear.
Katherine was deep in her sleep and didn’t notice Marshall had come back.
Marshall leaned against the bedside and found someone sent him message after a short while.
It was from his subordinate, telling him the information they got during the interrogation.
Those men on trial were not from manager board and only knew things on the surface. However, it was already enough for Marshall to lock his target.
Marshall texted to inform him he got it and put his phone down.
Katherine’s phone was on the other side. Marshall grabbed it to have a look.
It showed that Kyle had called, but he hanged off after only three or four seconds. Marshall didn’t know whether he had the wrong number or not.
Marshall didn’t mind it but accompanied by Katherine’s side until the servant called them to have lunch.
The noise from knocking the door woke Katherine up. She was startled when seeing Marshall was around.
Marshall got off bed and asked, “Do you feel tired today? I find you’re deep asleep.”
Katherine nodded while Marshall supported her to get up, replying, “Well, I have a good sleep and feel fresh now.”
Marshall helped to tidy her hair and noted, “It will be bad for your body for sleeping too much. I’m afraid you will feel sick.”
Katherine nodded and suggested, “Let’s get downstairs to have lunch. I get hungry once I wake up.”
Marshall smiled and found Katherine was adorable out of no reason.
They came across old Mrs. Grant, who was coming out from her room, in the corridor. Old Mrs. Grant didn’t show a surprising look when seeing Marshall come back.
She simply asked, “Didn’t your dad come with you?”
Marshall smiled. He hesitated for a while and replied, “I suppose dad is with mom now.”
