CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 550

Great. Now Lucas had also learned to sow discord between them.

Marshall put on a plastic smile and replied, "Yeah, I was telling the people in the warehouse what to do. There were many details they must attend to, so it took me some time."

Marshall’s detailed explanation, on the contrary, sounded weird.

Lucas didn’t pay much attention to it and nodded. "Well, alright. I’m going home now. It’s time for you guys to have dinner, right?"

Katherine nodded at him.

When Lucas went away, Katherine turned to Marshall. "Who were you calling that took you so much time? Were you talking with Clara?"

Marshall intended to explain the situation to Katherine. However, once his gaze fell upon her face, he paused and was suddenly lost for words.

Then he gave an ambiguous explanation. "We were talking about something serious."

So he acquiesced in what Katherine said.

Katherine snorted, "Of course you were talking about something serious." After that, she changed the topic. "Alright, let’s go. Dinner should be ready."

Marshall felt a little disappointed. He originally assumed that Katherine would ask him what he had talked about with Clara, or that she would ask him to give the details of their conversation.

But she didn’t. She was as big-hearted as usual, which upset him.

Marshall compressed his lips and went back to the main building with Katherine. The food was ready, and Old Mrs. Grant was about to have the maid call Katherine to dinner.

Katherine greeted her with a smile and then walked into the dining room. Seeing her behaving like this, Marshall couldn’t feel more frustrated.

Why wouldn’t she get jealous?

Marshall had never found it so hard to make someone jealous. He racked his brains, but Katherine remained untouchable to him.

Marshall didn’t like that feeling. He had never felt so helpless in business world.

During dinner, Katherine said that Khalid didn’t come back on time. Old Mrs. Grant said, "He might have gone to Frances."

Katherine paused, her lips curving into a smirk. "Khalid is quite efficient."

Old Mrs. Grant sighed helplessly, "They don’t know how to make their marriage work without divorcing each other."

Marshall threw a look at Katherine because what Old Mrs. Grant said also applied to their relationship.

Katherine, nonetheless, didn’t take it personally and nodded. "But I think it’s good for them. They’ll know better how to get along with each other after this."

Old Mrs. Grant said, "Yeah, I don’t think it’ll be long before they remarry." Her gaze darted between Katherine and Marshall. "Since they’re going to remarry, what about you two?"

Katherine chuckled, "Well, I’m good. I’m in no rush to get into a relationship now."

Marshall put his foot in his mouth. "I’m in no rush either."

Surprised, Katherine turned to look at Marshall for a few seconds before nodding with a smile. "Well, I see."

Marshall’s heart skipped a beat.

Then she added, "That’s great. Finally, we reach an agreement."
