Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Marshall went over and sat next to Khalid. He seemed undisturbed from the outside.

The Mr. Henderson looked at Marshall and turned to Clara smilingly, “What’s wrong? Did that

Haverford boy say annoying things?”

Clara paused and hurriedly explained, “No. I didn’t really know Kyle before, so Marshall did the majority

of talking.”

They both didn’t mention that Katherine was also there.

Marshall didn’t want to bring this up because he didn’t want Mrs. Grant to stir things up again.

She had been bad mouthing Katherine all afternoon in the mansion.

She would talk shitty about Katherine and just wouldn’t stop. He hated it from the beginning.

While for Clara, she didn’t mention Katherine because she was afraid that other people may find it odd

that a couple was separated in two rooms and would want to call Katherine over which would be a

buzzkill for her.

Mr. Henderson then nodded, “Well, that naughty Haverford boy is surly sometimes undisciplined, but

young people ought to be this energetic. You two should be more like him to be more lively.”

He mainly said this to Clara who immediately got the hint.

She was always a stuffy person and Marshall was in no way better than her, so it was no easy to have

chemistry between them.

Two people who can complement each other can generate love sparks.

Clara had actually thought about this before. Back when Marshall broke off their engagement, though

he said he was sorry, he seemed undisturbed at all from the outside.

She can’t really tell that he was sorry or was feeling reluctant.

So Clara was aware back then that Marshall had no feelings for her.

She always thought herself as a somewhat attractive woman and had never expected to lose to a

woman like Katherine.

She wouldn’t have it, never.

She was actually secretly comparing herself with Katherine recently and found that she was far better

than Katherine except for the personality.

She didn’t have a powerful background nor great social etiquettes. She was really nothing apart from

her sparkling yet shameless personality.

Men probably just dug for this type of girls, she thought inside.

Khalid chuckled and changed the subject to their business cooperation.

Mr. Henderson naturally followed his words and continued.

The completion of cooperation between the two companies was just a step way. All the details had

been ironed out and they just need to sign the contract.

Mr. Henderson then said that he had long wanted to cooperate with the Grants and it was just that it

was held up by something.

Hearing his words, all people present paused.

They all knew what he was referring to.

Mrs. Grant blinked her eyes and turned to Marshall.

Marshall was clearly absent-minded and seemed fidgety with his eyebrows slightly knitted.

Clara also took a glance of Marshall and knew what he was anxious for.

Khalid just smiled, “Well, good things are worthy of waiting. Though it was a bit delayed, our two

families cooperated anyway, so in a way, it’s the same.”

Mr. Henderson glanced at Clara with the corner of his eyes and chimed in, “Right, we waited for the

right thing.”

Clara then took her sight away from Marshall.

Eyes drooped, she looked at the teacup next to her and felt powerless.

All the Grants and Hendersons here didn’t know that Katherine was in that private room and wasn’t

affected at all and chatted for a long time.

Marshall got increasingly agitated and finally just stood up, “I need to use the restroom.”

Then he just directly left.

He indeed headed for the restroom, but he took out a cigarette box from his pocket standing by the

sink.

He heard people giggling inside just after lighting the smoke.

Then he heard Kyle’s voice, “Well, I really like Katherine’s personality. It’s a shame that I got to know

her this late. You know, I even thought earlier that you two would make a great couple if she is single.

She can definitely settle those annoying family members of yours. They can in no way control her.”

Then Kyle pushed the door open and got out.

He was talking to the person behind him and was surprised to see Marshall when he turned around,

“Oh, you are here. You really got me.”

But he didn’t seem to be embarrassed at all and acted like he was not the one who was gossiping

about another man’s wife.

Hector was behind him and wasn’t shocked to see Marshall here.

Kyle and Hector went to wash their hands. Kyle then spoke to Marshall, “What’s wrong? Got annoyed

because of the engagements?”

Then he continued before Marshall can even say anything, “I don’t like those social activities either.

Those people can’t be more fake. How long have you been here? Do you want to join us in our room?

Katherine is definitely fleecing me today. She had ordered way too much. There is no way we can finish

all those dishes.”

Then he seemed that he just suddenly remembered Marshall’s relationship with Katherine and

chortled, “Come and have some with us. You got to take care of your wife.”

Marshal stared at Kyle for a while and nodded, “Okay then.”

Katherine was chatting with Margaret in the room and was mainly bullshitting the landlord.

Margaret was livid with anger just mentioning him.

Katherine was bad mouthing the landlord too.

She would also fall for his trap if it weren’t for Peter.

While they were speaking ill of the landlord vigorously, the room door was opened.

Katherine heard Kyle’s voice before she even got to see him, “Little Katherine, you sweet husband is

here.”

Katherine’s face twitched and was disgusted by Kyle’s address.

Marshall was the last to come in and just sat next to Katherine after taking a glance of her.

‘Am I going to improvise another acting? My appearance fee is actually pretty high!’ Katherine thought

secretly.

Then she looked at Marshall, “Why are you here? Is your engagement over?”

“No yet.” Marshall heaved a sigh, “I don’t want to drink anymore, so I made up an excuse and just left.”

Kyle then laughed, “These social activities are really obnoxious, so I never liked them.”

Then he looked at Katherine and directly ordered, “Here, pick up some dishes for your sweet husband.

Don’t you remember that you ordered all these things? I wouldn’t let you go if you can’t have them all.”

Katherine rolled her eyes at him, “Would you look at yourself? How stingy are you? I would pack all

these leftovers for you and you can just have them as your late night snacks.”

Though Katherine was saying this, she still picked up the chopsticks and got some food for Marshall

and said, “You drank way too much, so it would be good for your stomach if you have some food now.”

Looking at Katherine’s chopsticks, Marshall was sure that she was doing this on purpose.

There were unpacked sterilized utensils aside, but she just had to let him use hers and acted all

innocent.

He genuinely thought she was a simple person before. How on earth did he misjudge?

Katherine blinked her eyes innocently, “Here, have some of these.”
