Katherine wrecked her brain to think of something liven up the atmosphere.
But before she could figure something to talk, she heard footsteps.
The pair both turned around to see who were there.
Then they found Carson and Lucas came out and headed towards the parking lot.
Lucas took the driver seat and Carson took the passenger seat.
Carson was talking on the phone as something went wrong about a project and he had to deal with it.
Khalid had to socialize with business partners today, so Carson was responsible for issues in the
company.
Though the Grants weren’t exactly on best terms, they had a clear division of responsibilities.
They both didn’t see Marshall and Katherine.
Then they just drove away.
Katherine stared at the parking ground and twitched her mouth, “You Grants are sure busy. How much
can you earn per year?”
Marshall couldn’t really answer her question since the profit was different every year.
Speaking of this, Katherine thought her business plan again.
She immediately spoke, “Well, how about I show you that store tomorrow at noon? The current owner
there said that she wouldn’t be continuing her contract at the end of this month and this is the perfect
opportunity for me to take over.”
It was already the mid-month, so Katherine had almost half a month to decide.
Marshall replied, “Sure, we can go there tomorrow. But you can’t rush into this whole starting your
business thing. You got to think this through. Are you going to do this yourself? Do you even know how
to do it?”
There was no way that she can make the sweets herself, so she got to hire people.
But she thought about hiring that little girl for the sweets she made were really yummy.
That little girl quitted because she didn’t have the money to invest, so she should be willing to work for
her if she can offer her enough salary.
But Marshall didn’t want to jump to decisions. “We can talk about this after I check that place.”
Then they sat for a while.
Then Katherine went on talking about her future plans.
She was saying something randomly like she was drunk.
But Marshall listened it seriously.
He seemed to never have listened to her thoughts seriously.
When it was pitch dark outside, Marshall and Katherine went back to the main building.
Mrs. Grant and Old Mrs. Grant had already gone back to their bedrooms for the Grants maintained a
regular sleep schedules.
Well of course apart from guys who had to work hard.
They got to the bedroom door together.
The pair stood shoulder by shoulder. Katherine then turned around and landed her eyes on Marshall.
But Marshall just ignored her and went directly into his room.
Katherine took a deep breath and went into her room.
She changed into the pajama that she wore yesterday and was about to take a shower.
But at the very next second, someone knocked on the door.
Katherine paused and thought it must be Mrs. Grant.
She was the only person who would just barge into her door in the entire Grants family.
It was probably because she was still holding grudges against her for what happened in the dining
table and wanted to vent her angers to her now.
Katherine clenched her teeth. She wasn’t afraid of her at all.
Katherine stood still for a while and the door knocks sounded again.
She then held her head up high and opened the door fiercely, “What do you want?”
Marshall was standing by her door with her phone in his hand.
Katherine just froze for she would never have guessed it was Marshall.
Marshall then handed her the phone, “When we came back before...”
Katherine then suddenly remembered that she put the phone on the stone table next to her while they
were in the garden.
Then Marshall helped her to grab it.
She meant to boss Marshall around, but after they came back, she just forgot about the phpne thing.
Katherine slowly took the phone over and looked surprised, “It’s you. I almost forgot.”
Marshall dared not to land his eyes on Katherine.
Her pajama...
It had no difference from wearing nothing at all.
Marshall took a deep breath and just turned around, “I’ll just be at my room.”
