Katherine had changed.
The maid had already heard the words from Mrs. Grant this afternoon.
Upon looking closer now, Katherine had indeed changed.
Her personality had become independent and she had become cold-hearted.
She used to be very kind and gentle, smiled at anyone she met, and treated the maids with a caring
attitude.
But just now, when she said thank you, she used a neutral tone and was emotionless.
She had changed.
The maid went out, closed the door behind her, and then slowly walked downstairs.
Mrs. Grant was complaining downstairs.
She was complaining about how Katherine had talked back at her and how she had challenged her.
She even mentioned Katherine almost got into a fight with her.
Marshall did not react in the beginning, but he frowned when he heard the last few words, “Did she hit
you?”
Mrs. Grant's expression was slightly uncomfortable, "That's not true, she didn't have the guts to do that,
she just smashed the bottle of perfume I bought, right in front of me."
Speaking of which, Mrs. Grant was furious.
The perfume just flew right past her face at that moment.
If the perfume bottle was a little off, it would have smashed her face.
Marshall nodded, “Just dropped a bottle of perfume. If you like it, I’ll buy you another bottle.”
Mrs. Grant tutted as she was unhappy, “It’s not just about a bottle of perfume, you didn’t understand
what I meant, you didn’t see her attitude at that moment. Marshall, why did you bring this kind of
person back? I didn’t say anything when you guys were still married. Now, why should the Grant family
help her when you are divorced.”
Marshall thought for a while, “This matter is a bit complicated. I will tell both of you together when dad
comes home later, but now Katherine needs to stay here. Mom, treat her nicely.”
Marshall looked at Mrs. Grant and talked with a serious tone, “I know what you did before, I just don’t
care about it. I know you have mistreated her.”
Mrs. Grant pursed her lips and felt embarrassed. She hummed and hawed, “How am I treating her
badly.”
She pulled her face and said, “ I have been treating her well. Not to say that she was married to you
with such a family background, If she was in another family, she might be treated like a maid.”
Marshall didn’t like to argue or reasoned with Mrs. Grant because it had been many times that his
father, Khalid Grant, couldn’t even reason with her.
All Marshall could say was, “When she married me, she and I were one unity. How you treat her is the
same as how you’re treating me.”
“How can you and her be the same?” Mrs. Grant glared, “You are the heir of the Grant family, the whole
Grant family will be yours in the future.”
This was the sentence he didn’t want to hear the most.
He simply stood up, “I’m going to go upstairs and change my clothes first, later when dad comes home
and everyone is here, I’ll tell you guys about the details between Katherine and me.”
Mrs. Grant knew Marshall didn’t want to hear about these household affairs.
But she had been sulking the whole afternoon.
If she didn’t let it out, she might suffocate.
Marshall went straight upstairs.
When he reached his room, he stopped and listened carefully.
He didn’t hear any sound coming from Katherine’s room.
Marshall opened the door and went into his room, changed into his home wear.
When he came out, he couldn't control himself and went over to knock on Katherine’s door.
He then heard the pitter-patter of footsteps, and the door opened.
A heavy jasmine fragrance came plunging over.
Katherine said with a blank expression, “Has your mother finished tattling?”
Marshall wanted to laugh, “How did you get into a fight with my mother this afternoon?”
Katherine humphed, “She came over to look for trouble, so I definitely can’t endure it.”
Marshall laughed this time, “Didn’t you tolerate it all before?”
Speaking of this, Katherine got upset.
She looked at Marshall with an unhappy look, “I was worried that it might be difficult for you to be stuck
between the two of us, or why else do you think I can withstand her for this long? Your family is indeed
rich, but it doesn’t mean that you can humiliate people at will. That’s just ridiculous. ”
Marshall raised his hand uncontrollably. It seemed that he wanted to pat Marshall’s head.
His hand stopped when halfway there.
He also seemed to be surprised by his actions. He became a little stiff and immediately put his hand
down again.
He sighed, “My mother does have a bad temper sometimes. It can’t be helped since my father used to
spoil her. Don’t argue with her in the future and try to avoid her.”
Katherine rolled her eyes, “I’m not doing it. Why should I avoid her? I used to be my grandfather’s
sweetheart too. If he was here, he will tell me not to be afraid. You guys only dare to bully me so
unscrupulously because I don’t have anyone to rely on.”
The tone of Katherine’s voice was fairly calm but Marshall’s heart was shocked inexplicably.
He stared and looked at Katherine’s face seriously.
