Marshall slightly tidied up his room and went out.
Peter was waiting downstairs and they headed straight to the office.
Katherine peered down from the window from her room, the angle was similar to Marshall’s room.
She watched as Marshall and Peter walked towards the parking lot, just like the old days where she
would watch her husband departing to work.
What’s so fun about watching him as he goes to work? Marshall had never noticed that she did this
every day before. It was nothing but her one-sided love, what a joke.
Katherine closed the curtain as the two of them disappeared from her sight, she went back to her bed.
Although Katherine slept through the whole flight, she still felt uncomfortable.
She tossed and turned on the bed, looked for a comfortable position.
Soon after, someone knocked on her door with a loud shouting voice, “Katherine, come out at once,
this is not your room, come out this instant!” Mrs. Grant shouted angrily.
Katherine giggled, she lied on the bed, looking at the ceiling in a good mood.
Mrs. Grant continued knocking few more times but receiving no answer, she turned to the maid, “Bring
the key and open the door.”
“Mrs. Grant, it’s better not to make a big deal out of this, Old Mrs. Grant was already upset,” the maid
said in a low voice.
Mrs. Grant gritted her teeth, “It’s not about making a big fuss, look at her, she’s walking all over me!”
She couldn’t stand to be treated this way.
Katherine had never behaved this way before but now she dared to challenge her! She should know
her capability before doing so!’
“Quick, open the door,” she urged the maid.
The maid had the key in her hand and unlocked the door after hesitated for a moment.
It was dimmed in the room while Katherine was lying on the bed.
Mrs. Grant was infuriated seeing Katherine lied on the bed that she had prepared.
She picked every single one of the items and decoration it herself for Clara, but now Katherine was
using it! She was infuriated.
She strode to the side of the bed, “Get up now, Katherine! This is not your room and you are not
allowed to be here, get out!”
Katherine was still lying on the bed looking at the ceiling, “I would advise you to stop acting this way if
you don’t want me to get your son involved,” she said slowly.
Although she sounded calm, what she said stopped Mrs. Grant.
She stared at Katherine fiercely, “Katherine, you’ve forgotten about your status after this one trip? Let
me tell you, Marshall let you stay here out of pity, don’t get overboard and get out at once, you do not
deserve to be in this room.”
Katherine sat up slowly and stared at Mrs. Grant.
She used to look at Mrs. Grant with fear and patience, but now it was simply ridicule and sarcastic.
“Pity me?” Katherine smiled.
She put her legs at the edge of the bed, even with the dimmed light, she saw the bottle of perfume on
the dressing table.
It must be a new bottle and looks like a branded one.
She continued, “Mrs. Grant, please ask your son first about the situation before coming to me, don’t
make me laugh.”
She then got up and opened the curtains.
“Let me tell you, your son’s reputation would have been damaged without me beside him on this trip,”
she said as she peered out the window.
Mrs. Grant didn’t know much about businesses, she had the notion that Marshall was unbeatable like
his father. Hence, she didn’t believe a word Katherine said.
Katherine even opened the window and the wind was hot since it was still summer.
Mrs. Grant grunted, “I’ve always known you are shameless enough to keep holding on stuff that doesn’t
belong to you, but I was wrong, you are way worse than that, a sharp tongue that speaks nonsense, a
complete disgraceful person.”
Katherine laughed, “It’s a miracle that Marshall is still alive today despite having a mother like you.”
Mrs. Grant was furious, no one apart from Old Mrs. Grant dared to speak to her like that.
Without giving her the chance to defend, Katherine continued with a calm tone, “I warn you not to
provoke me, if you make me angry and I accidentally leaked the news out about our divorce, your
beloved son’s reputation will be all ruined.”
