Marshall didn't care whether Clara was having dinner with Frances or not. Anyway, he recently had no
plan to meet Frances.
Perhaps Frances was intended to invite him for dinner before, but she must be irritated by his last call
now.
Well, at least, Marshall can have an easy period without Frances.
A while later, Khalid came with documents in his hand. He passed by Marshall's office and he came in
directly while seeing Marshall inside.
He asked, "What's going on? Peter told me that you have to handle something in the morning. So
what's it?"
Marshall thought for a moment and then said, "There was something wrong with Katherine, so I go give
a hand."
He nodded, "Katherine has no families here. Although you have a divorce from her, your grandfather
still cared about her in the last moments of his life. So you give her a hand at any time if you can.”
Marshall nodded and then asked, “I heard that you often go to the hospital to take care of a friend.”
With an awkward face, he looked over to Marshall.
He nodded, “Yes, my friend was hurt and lived in the hospital. So I take care of her there.
Marshall laughed, “Mom doesn’t know, right?”
Khalid replied, “It doesn’t matter whether she knows or not.”
Marshall nodded, “Hope mom can be aware of that. But you’d better not get your picture taken.
Otherwise, troubles will trouble you.”
Khalid laughed, “Ok, I will pay attention to it. But I am not guilt, but think it annoyed if there are some
rumors.”
His tone was full of sincerity. So Marshall seemed to believe that his father didn’t cheat her mother.
After the talk, Khalid was about to leave, but he then turned to him, “I heard that Lucas had blind dates
these days, but failed. You are in the same age with him. You ask him what kind of lady he likes, if
convenient.”
Marshall paused, “Ok, I will talk with him about it.”
Then Khalid left.
Looking at his back, Marshall began to think. Why did he, a talented man of good temper, marry
Frances?
Thinking here, he smiled.
He had a full afternoon. When it’s time to ring out, Peter came to his office.
Closing the door, Peter reported, “I had Clara investigated. She is clean. She recently has simple
activities, no meeting with Katherine and someone else suspicious.”
Marshall just nodded. Peter took seated, “Anyone else is blamed? I suspect nobody.”
Marshall thought for a long while, “The Bennett family could be a target, although I don’t think they
would do such things.”
Except the Bennett family, he can suspect no one.
Peter nodded, “Yes, they are the last possible party who might harm Katherine.”
After the talk, Peter left.
A while later, Clara texted him. She sent him a picture of her and Frances having dinner, but the
following words had nothing to do with the picture.
She said “Mrs. Grant made some complaints that you don’t trust her. Is there any misunderstanding
between you and her?”
Marshall just had a look and then closed WeChat. He was not intended to answer, as well as knowing
what they were eating.
He got off work and drove to Katherine’s house.
He pulled over a little far from her house. He walked to her gate. The gate was open, as well as the
door of living room, so he can see Katherine in the living room.
The TV was on, while Katherine on the sofa was on a call.
He approached slowly and heard her voice.
She was on a call with Margaret. In a joyful tone, she asked how Margaret was now.
Then he heard her, “He is in his closed training and I cannot contact him. Besides, I am not planning to
tell him about this. I am afraid he will be distracted.”
Margaret said something which made Katherine happy, “Yes, Hector has been kind to me.”
Marshall stopped, looking at Katherine still there.
On a happy call, she didn’t notice him. What’s more, she kept talking about Hector. It’s clear that she
appreciated Hector very much.
Standing still at the door, Marshall waited there.
After a long while, she didn’t finish the call.
Why two women had so much to chat?
He sighed and left. By the way, he closed her gate.
In his car, he took out cigarette box. He was not used to smoking before, but recently he smoked very
often.
He fetched out cigarette lighter, but put it back after thinking for a while. he just smelled the cigarette.
The light of the living room was still on.
A few seconds later, Marshall started the car and left.
Kathrine knew nothing about what had happened in her yard.
Finishing the call, she got up to close the gate. The closed gate surprised her a little bit, but she didn’t
dig it. She closed the windows and the door and turned back to her room.
These days, she was busy learning how to drive and the store. She did have a rich life.
Their business was good, with a lot of take-away orders and regular orders from Kyle.
Good business, rich life and no meeting with Marshall brought Katherine hopes to the future.
The talent show that Hector was training for was popular thanks to the ad.
The show originally aired on the internet. That day, Katherine opened the TV on time.
Kyle was watching the show in his club and he even called Katherine. Having a free chat with Kyle,
Katherine got a WeChat call.
It’s from Hector. So Katherine finished the call with Kyle and answered Hector.
She asked how his life was there and told him that she was going well. Besides, she was watching the
talent show that he was going to join in.
Hector sighed, “In fact, I am regretful now. I shouldn’t have come here.”
Katherine thought he was badly treated there, but he said, “I miss you so much, leaving so
long.”
