Marshall now was also very tired, if it was usual, he may go to appease Mrs. Grant.
But now, he was not in the mood.
He said, “I will stop by Katherine's place tomorrow to check on her, I may live there afterward.
Katherine does not like it here, we won't be coming over here.”
Old Mrs. Grant can understand. Mrs. Grant didn’t know how to learn a lesson and may forget
everything after a while.
Mrs. Grant and Katherine really didn’t fit to live under one roof.
Old Mrs. Grant nodded her head, “Good, good, there is also closer to the company, it’ll be more
convenient for you.”
Khalid also came back after a while.
He had a business party, but Mrs. Grant kept calling him with all sorts of complaints and grievances.
He really was so overwhelmed by it that he let Carson go for him.
And he came back to check on Mrs. Grant.
Old Mrs. Grant was really speechless to Mrs. Grant.
She looked at Khalid, “Your wife is spoiled by you.”
Khalid smiled helplessly, “I'll go up and check on her.”
Marshall watched Khalid go upstairs and said slowly, “Things between my dad and my mom are really
quite enviable.”
Khalid was really mollycoddling Mrs. Grant and Mrs. Grant was really a trouble maker.
Although she’s getting old, her ability to create trouble was not only not reduced, but went on a higher
level.
Anything that led her displeasure, she had to make a scene with Khalid.
Instead of getting angry, Khalid had been all kinds of humble to her.
He may get used to it after all these years and Mrs. Grant was even more accustomed to it.
Old Mrs. Grant thought for a while before saying, “In fact, your dad and mom had no feelings for each
other in the first place.”
It kind of surprised him, because he hadn't heard too much about the two of them.
Old Mrs. Grant should be a little touched and said, “Your dad was not supposed to marry your mom, it’s
another girl, whose family was a perfect match for ours. Your dad was very satisfied with the girl after
met her.”
As a result, a boy from a better family fell for that girl.
The girl's family weighed in and agreed to that family's proposal.
That was many years ago when there was no such thing as engagement, but only marriage.
The girl who was not yet married to Khalid but fell for another man and turned to marry him, and there
was nothing Khalid and the Grant family could do about it.
Then Old Mr. Grant entrusted someone to introduce Frances to Khalid.
Khalid should not have feelings for Frances at the time.
At least after meeting Frances, Khalid came back with a reaction that could not be compared to the
previous one.
And for Frances, she also was not much like Khalid, and probably thought that it was worth a try.
Then they got married.
After getting married, the two also had a disagreement, but Khalid may be born with a better temper.
He could tolerate Frances’s imperfections and Old Mrs. Grant could see that the relationship between
the two was getting better and better.
After saying this, Old Mrs. Grant looked at Marshall, “So when you married Katherine, I actually
thought, perhaps you two can also be like your father and your mother, and you two can develop
feelings through time.”
It turned out they got divorced just over a month after Old Mrs. Grant passed away.
Marshall really didn’t like Katherine.
Eyes downcast, Marshall didn’t speak.
Old Mrs. Grant had complicated feelings after said this, “Katherine is not from a decent family, her
character was too weak before to support a family. But this time after your divorce, she’s a little
surprised me.”
It's just that she's a bit like Frances in that way, and also a bit of nettlesome.
Yet today, when the maid wanted to help Frances, Katherine stared at them like she’s going to eat them
alive.
Old Mrs. Grant suddenly liked Katherine that way.
She wished Katherine could have a better family and a better education.
Marshall did not speak, just listened to Old Mrs. Grant finished rambling, and also went upstairs.
When he passed by Katherine’s room, he pushed the door open and entered.
The bed was messy and all traces of last night were still there.
The red wine glass was placed on the windowsill by his hand at that time, and it was still over there too.
He closed his eyes and turned to go out.
When he got back to his room, he took a shower first, and after he came out, he went to Mrs. Grant's
room.
