CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 535

Shouting herself hoarse, Mrs. Henderson cried out, "Jakub would have still been living safe and sound if it were not for the man! It was he, and all of them, who killed my son!"

Louie smoothed Mrs. Henderson's hair and said, "It's time to try to let it go, mother. You know you should take good care of yourself — we need you to take care of yourself, I need you to take care of yourself."

With her head up, Mrs. Henderson looked up at Louie with tears streaming down along her cheeks.

Finally, she reached out her arms to hold Louie in her embrace, and burst into tears.

A while later, Ryan went upstairs, walked passed the room of Mrs. Henderson and casted a glimpse inside.

Louie was padding her mother's back as if to a child, and the sniffles of Mrs. Henderson, in a trance, had already grown dim.

With a face betraying nothing, the old man turned around and left afterwards.

It was not until the figure of the old man had totally faded away that Louie turned to the doorway and looked outside.

She supported her mother to her bed, covered her up with a quilt, and then headed to the room of her father's room with slow and light footsteps.

The door of Tomas's room was kept open previously all the time in case of any unwanted situation happening.

However, this time, when she stood before the place, she found that the door was half closed, and the old man was talking to his own son inside.

Possibly, the old man should have been talking to him with big theories and great truths for a while, and no response was heard from Tomas.

At the end, the old man heaved a sigh, and said, "Things would be different if Louie were to marry Marshall."

"Ah." Sounded Tomas.

With a cold voice, Ryan continued, "Indeed, things would be different if the two were to marry."

At a loss, Tomas pondered, and then answered with a simple yes.

His voice sounded hoarse — obviously, he was still suffering from the aftershock of his son's death.

Then, Ryan added, "I could see that you have actually lowered your expectations and demands on your daughter when she was engaged with Marshall. And when you chose to exact demands on her again, it was just because of that Marshall had married someone else — I think it is due to that you became indecisive to draw a conclusion about whether Louie's husband in the future could help Jakub on his business or not."

Standing by the doorway, Louie knitted her brows, and thought that what the old man was saying sounded more like a bunch of grumblings against Marshall — or against his marriage with someone else other than Louie.

Sometimes, one's mind could be blindfolded if he was shocked by an unwanted incident, and this was exactly correct for the old man.

Tomas remained silent.

The old man continued, "Jakub don't deserve this. Now, we have lost one of the Hendersons' major heirs, and that means a huge loss to our company."

Hearing that, Tomas heaved a sigh with sobs.

As if he was muttering to himself, the old man sighed, "If only Marshall had stayed conscious and persistent, things would be different for our family."

Seemingly identifying with what his father said, Tomas heaved a yes.

In fact, he had just been speaking glowingly of the prosperous future of the whole family with Khalid yesterday.

If ever, Marshall were to marry Louie, he would definitely reach out his helping hand to Jakub, and with the help of this young bigwig, Jakub would therefore be able to lead the whole Hendersons' company to a brand new peak.

This was the blueprint that had long been designed in their mind from the beginning of the engagement between Marshall and Louie.

However, no one had ever expected that Katherine would break in halfway.

Louie didn't want to listen to their impudent talkings anymore — they were both shocked to become narrow-minded and unconscious.
