When Hector finished that song, many lookers-on shouted for an encore.
Katherine breathed a sigh. "It’s a waste of resources for Hector not to be a star with that face. Look at
him. How handsome he looks over there."
Kyle turned to look at Katherine and pondered with a frown, but said nothing.
Hector stopped singing, gave the guitar back to the singer and walked back to them. "Let’s go."
Kyle nodded. "When I got bored in the past, I would come here to look at them."
Katherine thought Kyle was about to say something emotional, but he continued, "I saw these poor
people, and I didn’t feel bored anymore. It’s fun to count my money at home too."
Katherine gave a silent smile, blaming herself for expecting too much from Kyle.
That was exactly what the young master of the Haverford family would say.
The night fair was beside the open space, and now it was at its most bustling time of the day.
There were many stalls along the street, and both the old and the young were having fun.
Kyle was still in the mood, calling Katherine and Hector, "Let’s hang out here. Things are cheap, and
there’re so many styles to choose from. If you find anything you like, I’ll buy them for you."
Katherine wanted to look around because she had never been to a lively night fair like this.
She looked back at Hector and said, "Let’s go. It looks like fun."
Hector nodded. "OK."
The three of them walked from one end of the street to the other, and cheap drinks were sold along the
street.
Kyle bought three and passed them to Katherine and Hector. "I saw a kid drinking this. It should be
good."
Katherine took the drink with a smile. "Kyle, you haven’t been here either, have you?"
Kyle was stunned. "I was always alone, so I could never visit a place like this. You need to hang out
with friends in a night fair."
Katherine’s heart sank when she heard what Kyle said.
Somehow, the words from the bubbly young master of the Haverford family could always make her
heart soften.
Katherine took a sip. The drink was basically sweetened water.
She added, "If you want to visit a place like this in the future, call me. I can go with you anytime you
want."
Kyle walked over to Katherine and put his arm around Katherine’s shoulders with a casual air. "See?
You’re a true friend, Katherine. I knew you weren’t an ungrateful soul."
Hector rushed up to them and threw Kyle’s arm off Katherine’s shoulders. "I’ll also go with you when
I’m free. Don’t worry."
A smile spread across Kyle’s face. "Both of you are my true friends for life."
Katherine smiled, saying nothing.
The three of them combed through the stalls and did a lot of shopping.
Kyle was so generous that he bought everything Katherine took a second look at.
When they reached the end of the street, Katherine was full up.
Meanwhile, Kyle and Hector were carrying two big bags filled with various kinds of odds and ends.
They had to stop now because they could carry no more.
Kyle called the driver to pick them up.
Katherine crouched down by the street while waiting for the car.
She was really tired of walking.
Kyle also crouched down by the street like her.
Hector looked at them and smiled. "I have to crouch down too to keep the formation."
Kyle reached out to pulled Hector down. "Come here. Squat down. Don’t be shy."
Katherine was amused when Hector crouched down. She took out her phone. "Let’s take a picture. I
don’t think anyone else has seen you guys like this."
Crouching by the street, the three of them took a selfie.
Katherine couldn’t help laughing looking at the photo. She couldn’t feel happier.
She had never been so happy during the whole marriage.
The car came in a few minutes.
Katherine and Hector got into the car. Kyle told the driver to send him back first, then Hector, finally
Katherine, because the tea set Kyle sent her was still in the trunk.
Hector thought and offered, "Send Katherine back home before me, so that I can help her move the
things out of the car. It’s not easy for the driver to carry them alone."
Kyle couldn’t care less. "Marshall should be at home. Let him help her."
Hector insisted, "Let me do it. What if Marshall has a dinner party and isn’t home? I can go back later."
Kyle just let them be. The driver sent him home first, and then the car ran to Katherine’s home.
Katherine looked down at her phone, and there was no unread messages.
Marshall was indeed a decisive person. Once he failed to get a response, he moved on.
Just like her.
Along the way, Katherine and Hector hadn’t talked much until the car stopped at the door of Katherine’s
house.
Katherine opened the door and got off the car, while Hector followed her.
The light in the living room was off, so Marshall shouldn’t be at home.
Katherine looked up at the window on the second floor, and it was also dark.
So, Marshall was actually not at home?
Then what did he mean by asking her when she was going home?
Hector and the driver moved the tea set out of the trunk.
Katherine opened the door for the two immediately.
Hector smiled. "You’re so fortunate that I came with you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to
carry it alone."
The tea set was rather heavy, and it must be hard for one to move it.
Katherine nodded. "You’re right. You thought of everything."
Meanwhile, she was carrying two big bags filled with stuff Kyle bought her.
In fact, most of them were useless.
The nouveau riche Kyle had no idea how to spend his money and must buy them for her, or he would
get angry.
Katherine had never met someone like him before.
Hector and the driver put the tea set by the side of the living room, and then Hector let out a sigh of
relief.
Katherine was wearing a bunny ear hairpin, which she forgot about.
When they were in the night fair, Kyle insisted that it looked good on her and bought it.
Hector went over, flipped the bunny ears and gave a smile. "I’m going back, miss bunny."
It was then that Katherine remembered she was wearing the hairpin. She smiled. "Alright. Be careful on
the way."
She watched Hector getting into the car and saw him off at the door before turning around and coming
in.
However, the moment she turned, she was startled.
Marshall was standing on the stairs silently. It was unknown when he came down.
The light on the second floor was off. Did that mean he went down in the darkness?
There must be something wrong with this man.
Katherine frowned. "Why won’t you make any noise while walking?"
Marshall stared at the tea set in the living room, poker-faced. "What’s that?"
Katherine replied, "The birthday present for Carson, a tea set."
Before she could tell him it was given by Kyle, Marshall asked again, "Hector bought it with you?"
Katherine frowned.
The next moment, Marshall snorted. "You can’t be alone for one second, can you?"
These words were actually a little offensive, and Katherine’s face darkened immediately.
She stared at Marshall. "Is there something wrong with you? Do you want to pick a fight?"
Marshalled sneered, turned around and went upstairs. "How much is it? Tell me. I’ll transfer it to you
along with the tip."
Katherine compressed her lips, glaring at Marshall’s back.
Marshall went straight back to his room without turning on the light.
He didn’t even turn on the light after going into his room, nor did he pull the curtain.
In fact, he saw everything when Katherine and Hector came into the house just now.
Marshall closed the door and lay down on the bed.
He had lain for a long time and failed to fall asleep before.
And he still couldn’t fall asleep now.
