Katherine went on ordering a bunch, but Kyle didn’t seem to mind.
After a while, Katherine clapped her hands and said, “Okay, that’s all.”
Kyle nodded and said to the waiter, “Make these two raw, these two steamed and the rest a sea food
tray.”
Then he said to Katherine, “Let’s go. Those two are still waiting for us in the private room.”
Katherine then raised her eyebrows at Marshall and left with Kyle blissfully,
While passing Marshall, Kyle even waved his hand at him, “You can come over and join us later if you
got time. We haven’t met for a while.”
Marshall nodded.
After Katherine and Kyle had both left, Clara said lowly to Katherine’s back, “How did Miss Jordan get
to know Mr. Haverford? I heard that in his club, he is quite...”
Then she suddenly stopped and seemed to realize that she had said something wrong.
Looking at the direction that Katherine had disappeared into, Marshall took a deep breath, “Let’s pick
the sea food.”
Clara nodded and leaned to his direction sweetly.
Katherine’s face immediately darkened after leaving the lobby.
How shameless was that man!
He said that he would return to the mansion, didn’t he?
What a liar!
Did he really just assume that she wouldn’t know a thing?
Hector and Margaret were both on their phones and seemed to be awkward since they really didn’t
know each other.
Seeing that they had come back, Hector immediately spoke, “Well, did you two go fishing?”
It was pretty rare to see Hector joking, so Kyle laughed, “Well, guess who we bumped into in the lobby.”
Kyle then turned to Katherine, “But I’m really shocked, Katherine. It turned out that you are...”
Katherine glared at Kyle, “I am what?”
Kyle immediately changed his words, “It turned out that you are the Katherine who bewitched
Marshall.”
Katherine’s face lightened up a bit hearing his words.
Kyle then turned to Hector and answered his own question, “We met Marshall in the lobby. Sweet
Jesus, Katherine is the Mrs. Grant.”
Hector took a glance of Katherine who remained silent.
Hector then replied in a few seconds, “Oh, I thought you know this. They had a grand ceremony and
you were there.”
Well, Kyle was indeed there, but he was already hammered by the time the ceremony started.
He didn’t even get to see the faces of the married couple.
Kyle then looked at Katherine admiringly, “Well, you know, I’ve always respected the woman who just
suddenly showed up and managed to marry Marshall, but I really didn’t expect that woman to be you.”
Sitting next to Margaret, Katherine smiled and changed the subject, “Well, we haven’t ordered the
drinks yet. What do you want to have?”
Margaret hadn’t really been in this kind of scenario before and just felt that all these people’s identities
were quite complicated.
She paused and said, “I’m all okay.”
Kyle immediately buzzed the bell and called the waiter over and ordered a jug of mangosteen juice.
Then he returned to the subject before, “That woman before is Clara Henderson, right? Well, I vaguely
remembered that she was supposed to marry Marshall, wasn’t she?”
Katherine seemed calm, “Yeah, she was.”
“Wow.” Kyle took a long breath, “No wonder that the vibe between you two was pretty weird.”
“Really?” Katherine chuckled, “It’s all right. I am being weird with you too.”
“It’s not the same.” Kyle waved his hands, “The attitude and the face are all different. I can tell that at
least.”
Kyle was definitely not a good-natured guy, though he was pretty careless normally, everyone knew
that he can’t be messed with.
He would long be mad at Katherine if he couldn’t tell that she was just joking with them.
Katherine even managed to heave a sigh, “Well, can Marshall and Clara get this too?”
Kyle chortled, “They are both quite worldly. Of course they can tell.”
Leaning against the chair, Katherine said, “Well, if it’s sure. Why can Clara still be that undisturbed?
Don’t you think this kind of person is quite awesome?”
Kyle sneered, “Not for me. I hate this kind of person the most. They are actually shrewd inside, but they
just have to act to be all innocent outside. I really find this kind of people disgusting.”
Katherine immediately broke into laughter.
She liked Kyle even more.
While they were waiting for the dishes to be served, Katherine asked Kyle if he knew the Hendersons.
Katherine actually didn’t know them since she only got to know them after she met Clara.
Though Kyle couldn’t match the faces, he knew their names well.
He heard quite a lot of gossips on mahjong table.
He then said, “Old Mr. Henderson is honestly a formidable man. He is controlling the Hendersons now
and I heard that he really favored Marshall and wanted to cooperate with the Grants before, but he was
a really defensive guy, so I guessed that he wanted to seal the deal with the Grants after Marshall
married Clara since he wouldn’t believe the Grants without the marriage as protection.”
They had been in the business circle long time enough to know how to be safe.
But not in his wildest dreams had Old Mr. Henderson expected that the situation would change at the
last minute.
Nobody had forecasted that Katherine would just show up all of a sudden.
Katherine thought for a while and said, “But Old Mr. Henderson seemed to be pretty active about this
cooperation with the Grants.”
Kyle nodded, “Yeah, I heard that he even went to the Grant’s company before.”
That visit was actually pretty unusual since he had never paid a visit to other companies before and
was well respected everywhere.
Legs crossed, Kyle was dangling his slippers, “Well, I guess that something must be wrong with the
Henderson’s company or the family, so Old Mr. Henderson would want to look for a reliable partner,
and which company would be a better option than the Grants who owed to the Hendersons.”
Katherine nodded and didn’t really understand all the complex things involved in this whole
cooperation.
But she didn’t really mind it anyway, since she just knew that she was mad at Clara and just wanted to
piss her off.
Then the waiter entered with the raw slices of fish and steamed sea food as well as that fish that she
specifically ordered for Hector.
The sea food tray would be served in a while.
But these dishes were actually enough since Katherine had ordered way too much.
Kyle then stood up and pushed the fish to Hector, “Here, Katherine picked this for you. You can have it
all yourself. We wouldn’t even touch it.”
Katherine was smiling, but then she suddenly noticed a man standing by the door after the waiter had
just left.
But sitting with his back to the door, Kyle didn’t see the man and continued teasing, “Well, Katherine
specially got this for you and knew what you like to eat. I really got jealous, you know.”
