Marriage Without Love: Sir, Please Stop novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 The Return of Mrs. Shaffer 

Catalina walked downstairs. 

As expected, there was a luxury black car parked outside the door. 

As soon as Catalina showed up, the driver quickly got out of the car and respectfully opened the rear door for her, saying, "Mrs. Shaffer, please get in the car." 

"Thank you." 

Catalina nodded, said thanks to him, and got into the car. 

The driver took her to the Sophora Villa. 

The closer they got to the destination, the more nervous Catalina became. 

She felt it was hard for her to breathe. 

She didn't understand why she was so nervous. 

Didn't she just meet Bennett in the afternoon? 

Though their talk broke down in discord. 

"Mrs. Shaffer. We have arrived." 

Suddenly, the driver reminded Catalina when she was lost in thought. 

The driver hurriedly stepped out of the car, opened the door for her, and said with a respectful yet graceful gesture, "Mrs. Shaffer, please get off the car." 

Then she snapped out of her thoughts. 

It took Catalina a few seconds to compose herself before she got out of the car. 

"Mrs. Shaffer!" 

Wendy appeared out of nowhere and excitedly hugged Catalina, saying, "I thought you would never come back!" 

“Wendy, let go. Manners!” 

Ralph, who was standing at the gate, tapped his cane on the ground and scolded her. 

Wendy looked embarrassed and quickly let go of Catalina, apologizing, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Shaffer. I forgot myself.""That's alright. I am not obsessed with rules like Bennett." 

As she said this, she hugged Wendy and then greeted Ralph politely, "Glad to see you again, Ralph.""Mrs. Shaffer, welcome home." 

Ralph greeted her with a smile. 

At this moment, when Catalina saw Ralph's smile again, she felt that he was no longer as simple as he seemed to be. 

This crafty old man! 

But that was reasonable, those who could stay by Bennett's side were probably all smart, weren’t they? 

"Mrs. Shaffer, please come in! Mr. Shaffer has been waiting for a long time." 

Ralph gave Catalina a welcoming gesture to sign for her to come inside. 

Catalina was speechless. 

She had just arrived and hadn't even had a sip of water. Why in such a hurry? 

Five minutes later, Ralph led Catalina to the Lake Compound. 

"Knock, knock, knock." 

Ralph stood outside the door and politely knocked three times, saying "Mr. Shaffer, Mrs. Shaffer is here." 

There was no response. 

For some reason, Catalina had her heart in her mouth. 

She didn't know why she was so nervous. 

"Mr. Shaffer?" 

Ralph was about to knock on the door again. 

Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand, the door was pulled open from inside. 

With a grim face, Bennett showed up in front of them. 

He was so tall that his presence put an enormous pressure on others. 

Although he was dressed in a light gray home wear, he looked as charismatic as when he was wearing a suit at work. 

Standing there, he had a look that made people want to bow their heads. 

Moreover, his noble and elegant temperament made him shine brighter than all the stars. 

"Mr. Shaffer, good evening." 

Ralph hurriedly nodded and greeted him respectfully. 

Bennett ignored him directly. 

He stared straight at Catalina's face and asked aggressively, "Didn't you leave? Why are you coming back?" 

Ralph was dumbstruck.
