Khalid really hadn’t returned home since he moved to live with Mrs. Grant. It seemed that he didn’t really mean to come back to the Grant Residence.
Although Mrs. Grant was a little embarrassed, she still said, “I told him to come back at times, but he thought it was too troublesome to drive back and forth.”
These are all excuses.
Katherine said, “We all know that he just didn’t want to leave you.”
Grandma Grant stood up and said, “I called your mother. She said she had time tomorrow. I’ll meet her tomorrow and discuss with her.”
After saying this, Grandma Grant hesitated and said, “But Frances, I didn’t regret forcing you to divorce Khalid. I think it may be because of the divorce that you finally had time and space to reflect on what you could do to make your marriage last longer. After all this, you may better understand what marriage really needs!”
Mrs. Grant nodded and said very seriously, “After the divorce, at first, I was confused, uncomfortable and unwilling, but later I felt that the divorce had taught me a lot, which was an inevitable for me.”
In fact, she and Katherine were alike.
Katherine also felt the divorce between she and Marshall was an inevitable process for her.
Only after going through this process could we know whether two people were suitable for each other and how they should treat their relationship correctly so that it would last longer.
Katherine was in low spirit, so Mrs. Grant went to have a walk with her outside. After walking for a while, they saw Maria coming over.
They didn’t have much contact with her. She was always in a low profile in the Grant family.
Maria was a gentle woman who didn’t talk much.
Davies’ temperament was a bit like hers. They were both Buddha-like.
Maria came forward, smiling. She spoke first, “You are back, Frances.”
Mrs. Grant nodded, “Yes. Are you going out?”
Maria sighed, “It’s boring to be at home every day. The weather is good today, so I want to go shopping with others to kill the time.”
“I’m envious. I can’t go shopping now,” Katherine said.
Maria sighed and stared at Katherine’s stomach. “Don’t envy me. You don’t know how much I envy you. Now there is going to be a newborn in the family. It will be lively!”
Speaking of this, Maria went on, “I’m still thinking about when you and Marshall will marry again.
The whole family should get together and have a good time. Our house is too big, but there are not many people and it’s very empty.”
Mrs. Grant could really relate to that. In the past, the men went out to work during the day. There were only a few women at home. Back then she was arrogant and didn’t communicate with others, so she only stayed in the main building with Grandma Grant.
Life was really simple and boring.
Maria was not in a hurry. So, she stood there, chatting with Mrs. Grant and Katherine.
Looking at Katherine’s big belly, Maria continued.
She said, “When you and Marshall just divorced. He was really anxious. I saw him sitting in a daze in the garden several times. He looked pathetic and lonely. I knew he regretted divorcing you.”
Katherine didn’t know that. She smiled, “When?”
Maria thought for a moment, “It should be the time when the news of your divorce came out and you moved away.”
