Katherine returned to her room in a good mood. She took out her phone and looked at her social media
account, and Peter gave comments, mainly asking what had happened. Then there was the singer,
who did not ask what was going on, but only said that he would let her cheer up.
Katherine turned off her phone and laid on the bed.
She couldn't sleep, but she didn't know what to do, so she just lay there, killing time.
Marshall was busy in the afternoon. He received a call from the maid and knew that his mother had
gone to apologize. Marshall heard crying on the phone and listened a little more carefully.
His mother must be crying for the matter of going to apologize.
He then just pretended not to hear it and hung up the phone.
His mom was really spoiled by Khalid.
After all these years, even his grandmother sometimes gave in to her.
So much so that she just really thought she's the boss.
Look what happened now.
Marshall could do nothing about it.
However, Mrs. Grant did the wrong thing, said the wrong thing, and she had to bear the consequences.
An apology was appropriate.
If Old Mr. Grant was still alive, Marshall bet it would have been more than just an apology.
Old Mr. Grant was a man of dignity, never talked behind people's backs.
If he knew that Mrs. Grant had said such unpleasant things, he might have lost his temper.
After hanging up the phone, Marshall leaned back in his chair and pinched his brow bone.
He did not sleep well last night, and with so many things today, he had a drowsy head.
Peter came in from the outside with documents, some of which needed to be signed by Marshall and
some were for Khalid.
He handed the document to Marshall, then thought about it and said, “What happened to you and
Katherine? I just called her again, she still did not answer, and I commended her, but also did not get
replied.”
Marshall did not want to mention this matter, put down the file, and said, “Go to work.”
Seeing Marshall act like that, Peter knew that things were not simple.
This was the same reaction when he was divorcing Katherine before.
Was this... could it be that they were going their separate ways?
Peter didn't dare to continue asking questions and went out with the documents.
Marshall now was not able to read any documents.
After a while, he got up and went to the bathroom and Lucas happened to be there.
Lucas was washing his hands. Marshall went in and did not say hello to him, directly standing next to
the sink.
Marshall was not clear-headed now, he needed a face wash.
Lucas looked down and said while washing his hands, “You and Katherine, you guys did not divorce,
ah?”
Marshall stopped his movement, not turning to look at Lucas or saying anything.
Lucas laughed, his voice was still gentle, “See, there is still something to thank me for in the first place,
right?”
When he finished, he got a paper towel to wipe his hands and left.
Marshall’s hands propped up against the sink and looked at himself in the mirror.
Thank him?
How funny!
Marshall didn't work much all afternoon, and when it was time to get off work, he rushed out of the
office.
Along the way, he did not respond to whoever greeted him.
He drove back to the old mansion.
Old Mrs. Grant was sitting in the doorway of the living room.
She was looking at the former location of the funeral shed.
Marshall walked over, “Grandma.”
Old Mrs. Grant turned her head to see him and slowly stood up, “You're back, are you tired?”
In fact, he didn't work much but was really quite tired.
Old Mrs. Grant and Marshall went to sit down on the couch in the living room.
Mrs. Grant was not downstairs.
Marshall looked around, “Where’s my mom?”
Old Mrs. Grant sighed, “She's been in her room, crying all afternoon.”
Marshall felt somewhat helpless.
Old Mrs. Grant’s voice was soft, “What's there to cry about, feeling disgraced or aggrieved?”
She led herself into this.
Who was there to blame for?
And Old Mrs. Grant just wouldn’t nail it, not that she didn’t know.
What Mrs. Grant did to Katherine before was so much more embarrassing than what Katherine did to
Mrs. Grant now.
Mrs. Grant mocked Katherine in front of lots of people that Katherine didn’t come from money, she was
just coveting the Grant family's property and would do any dirty thing to marry Marshall.
At that time, Katherine did not drop a single tear.
How come she cried like this for such a small thing?
Old Mrs. Grant did not feel sorry for Mrs. Grant but rather felt that she was being
pretentious.
