Hector then said that he would have a closed training afterwards as Rosalie had hired a singing and
shape-up teacher to give him basic courses.
Katherine was actually far more excited than Hector himself when she heard the news, “Wow, great!
It’s definitely a good thing for you. These foundation courses can guarantee you a marvelous result in
the show.”
She didn’t sound like that she didn’t want Hector to leave.
Ironically, Hector actually first thought of her and hesitated a long time when he heard about the closed
training.
Hector smiled lightly, “Right, you feel the same way as I do.”
Katherine looked sincere, “But you have to let us know when you need help. I would get you a lot of fan
support.”
Hector nodded, “Sure.”
He actually had a lot to say to Katherine when he came over like what happened last night and his
training.
But Katherine didn’t look like that she would miss him too much.
Those questions and words just suddenly got stuck in his throat.
After chatting with Katherine randomly, Hector just left.
Katherine was actually sleepy, so after giving herself a good stretch, she closed the door and went
upstairs.
While she just turned off the lights on the second floor, Marshall got the text about her situation.
Marshall read it smilingly and put down the phone.
Then he went to shower and had some missed calls from Frances.
Marshall then went to answer the phone, but before he could say anything, Frances shouted hurriedly,
“Marshall, you just left without having dinner today?”
“Why did you ask Clara to be there?”
“How foolish are you, kiddo. Why else would I ask Clara to be there? You and Clara are both single
now, so why can’t you get to know her?”
Marshall sneered, “You are still harboring this thought, huh?”
Frances got displeased, “Of course I am. I really don’t know what else should I say to you now. You
and Clara ought to be together. Now that you’ve divorced with Katherine, why are you being so
reluctant?”
“Well, my dad is also single now and I heard that auntie is also not with someone. Do you think if it
would be a good idea if I set them up?”
“What?” Frances instantly got agitated. “Is that woman still thinking about your father?”
Marshall smiled, “Well, they were supposed to be together anyway. Now since that they all got
divorced, wouldn’t it be great if they can get back with each other?”
“Marshall.” Frances called his name angrily.
Of course she knew that Marshall was bringing up this matter to taunt her. “Katherine was no match for
Clara. Why are you so stubborn?”
Marshall didn’t choose to retort, “That auntie is more good-natured and well-pampered than you. Plus,
her family background is more powerful than yours. She is actually quite a strong competitor and
definitely wouldn’t be overshadowed by you. I think it’s a smart decision for dad to pick her.”
Frances got speechless.
“See, your attitude is completely different when you are in the same shoes with Katherine. So, don’t tell
me that you are doing this for my good. You are really fooling yourself.”
Frances was livid with anger by this point, but Marshall was quite blunt.
“I’m quite busy these days, so don’t call me. You can call your precious Clara when you need
anything.”
Then Marshall just hung up the phone.
Flinging the phone aside, Marshall looked impatient.
He really didn’t know that Frances was still trying to set him up with Clara.
She seemed still clueless and didn’t know what was wrong with her after failing her own marriage.
Marshall heaved a sigh and went to bed after drying his hair.
Marshall wanted to fall asleep, but his phone kept getting messages.
He picked up the phone and found that Clara was texting him.
She was saying that she didn’t know that Frances would do that tonight and felt awkward.
Moreover, she was sorry for causing any troubles to Marshall.
She sent a bunch of messages in a row and seemed anxious.
Marshall stared at the phone for a while and didn’t text back.
After muting the phone, he turned off the bedside lamp.
Clara didn’t get Marshall’s responses after waiting for a long time and came to realize that Marshall
probably won’t text her back.
She didn’t really know if Marshall had seen her texts or it was just that he ignored her.
Feeling uneasy, Clara paced back and forth.
Frances just called and said that she had scolded Marshall. She then explained that Marshall felt that it
would be troublesome to be seen together with her, so he just left.
Well, it actually made sense, since that they had been photographed too many times together by the
press though they were both accompanied by assistants.
The press also captioned that they were business partners when those pictures were posted online and
didn’t look fishy, so those scandals before about them were just rumors which were cleared up
gradually.
So if they were photographed having slightly suggestive date in private, things might get out of control
once again.
However, they can’t just always keep this distant relationship because they were afraid of those
gossips.
Clara felt like that she cannot wait any longer.
She had seen Marshall checking his Facebook constantly when she was having a meeting with him for
several times.
She can see the Facebook avatar that he was checking on his phone and it was a selfie of Katherine.
Clearly, he was still thinking about Katherine.
She would again end up losing everything if she didn’t do anything just like what happened before.
She can’t let that happen again. She wouldn’t be able to bear it.
Marshall’s one-year long marriage with Katherine was too much of a blow to her.
And now that they’d divorced, there was no way that she would miss this opportunity.
Clara pondered for a while and called Frances who immediately picked up.
“Clara?”
Clara let out a breath, “Auntie, I want to discuss something with you.”
Frances answered okay gleefully and chimed in.
Marshall didn’t know what Frances and Clara were plotting, so when Old Mrs. Grant brought up going
to the temple again the next morning, he said, “I mean it. Give it a try and see if Katherine wants to go
there. She might be okay with that.”
Old Mrs. Grant beamed, “Sure, sure. I will ask her and pester at her if she doesn’t want to go.”
Marshall grinned, “I just want you to give her a call.”
After having breakfast, Marshall went to work and Old Mrs. Grant called Katherine.
Katherine went to the store early in the morning and was busy as a bee. She was actually quite
reluctant to get Old Mrs. Grant’s call.
She really felt uneasy, after all, she was Marshall’s grandma and by getting in touch with her, she was
bound to meet Marshall. Though she still met Marshall a lot, it felt different.
Katherine stared at the phone for a while and picked it up, “Old Mrs. Grant.”
Old Mrs. Grant let out a sigh, “I like you calling me Grandma.”
