CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 549

Katherine answered the call and greeted him in a happy tone, "Hey, Kyle."

Kyle, however, didn’t sound happy at all. He sucked his teeth before saying, "Katherine, I have something to tell you. Didn’t you ask me to investigate Clara? I did. It’s not that I didn’t get to the bottom of it. I told my men to do it very carefully, but it seems that…"

"Clara didn’t do it, right?" Katherine interrupted him.

Surprised, Kyle replied, "Right. It seems that Clara has nothing to do with it."

Katherine laughed. "I knew that not long ago. Clara didn’t ask anyone to tail me."

Kyle was astonished to hear that because he had firmly believed that Clara must be responsible for it. Katherine didn’t know how shocked Kyle was when he found out Clara had nothing to do with it. He even asked his men repeatedly if they did it wrong, but his men said with a wry smile that they had looked into it very carefully and that was what they got. They could do nothing about the fact.

Katherine continued, "Clara didn’t do it, but that doesn’t mean the Henderson family is innocent. Marshall is looking into it now."

Kyle seemed to heaved a sigh of relief. "Exactly, don’t forget about the Henderson family. Since Clara is innocent, there must be something wrong with her family. You know what kind of people they are."

Kyle was amused by what Kyle said because his opinion was too subjective. It was unfair for him to say so, but he was a friend worth having.

Katherine expressed her gratitude to Kyle before asking, "How have you been recently?"

Kyle’s day-to-day life wasn’t very exciting and there was nothing worth talking about. He hemmed and hawed, "Well, same old, same old."

Katherine thought for a while and asked, "Have you seen Rosie lately?"

Kyle paused, saying nothing. But judging from his reaction, Katherine already got an answer. She sighed silently and said, "Actually, I think Rosie is a good girl. Don’t pick on her. It was not her fault to maintain social order."

Kyle didn’t feel easy talking about this topic. After a long pause, he replied, "I see." Apparently, he didn’t want to talk about Rosie, so he changed the subject and asked her how Marshall’s investigation was going.

Kyle knew Marshall was carrying out an investigation into the Henderson family’s business, because Marshall took Husky away from his club. Katherine didn’t know much about how the investigation was going since Marshall didn’t tell her everything about it. She thought for a while and replied, "He must have dug up a lot of information. You can ask him about it if you really want to know. By the way, Kyle, why did Marshall take Husky away?"

Kyle replied, "Marshall said he needed his help. Husky looks like an unreliable person, but he’s quite smart."

Katherine doubted that. All she could remember was that she had beaten him up. Husky didn’t look that smart at that time anyway. However, judging from what Marshall had told her before, she realized that Husky must have offered much useful information to him. Therefore, that man should be smart in front of Marshall.

Katherine said after some consideration, "Marshall has got a lot of information this time. It seems that Clara has also offered help. She should be different from the rest of her family."

Kyle wasn’t impressed by Clara. He cursed as he heard what Katherine said. "They are a nasty family, and I don’t believe she’s unblemished growing up in a family like that. Tell Marshall to beware of her. She could be pretending."

Katherine burst into laughter, but she was aware that Kyle said so for the sake of her, so she nodded and replied, "Alright, I see. I’ll tell Marshall when he comes back."

Now that Kyle had said everything he wanted to say, he hung up the phone after grumbling to her about Clara.

Meanwhile, Katherine leaned back against the headboard and chuckled despite herself.

Kyle was one track-minded. When he hated someone, he found no shining points on that person. Katherine wondered if his relationship with Rosie would take a turn for the better.
