Katherine saw Old Mrs. Walters out and then lost in her thoughts, standing.
She hadn’t seen Marshall for several days. Sometimes, she went back home from work, she would
think of him.
She was upset when seeing him every day before, but she missed him now after days away.
After a while, she began to be busy.
After several customers, she lowered head, feeling a customer and asking, “What can I do for you?”
“What I want is quite much.” He said.
Stunned, Katherine raised head.
In a sound suit, Marshall stood in front of her with his hands in the pockets. “I need several takeaways
for my employees.”
Margaret smiled and came over, “Mr. Grant, come over there. You can point out what you don’t like.”
Marshal stared at Katherine for a second, then turned to Margaret.
At the bar, Katherine can dimly hear their talk about the match of disserts and drinks.
Katherine looked over at Marshall. As usual, he looked cold.
In her perspective, such cold Marshall was not a popular man, and any girl would lose patience while
facing indifferent Marshall.
Was she blind before? She should fall in love with him.
Margaret packed for him and he came to pay the bill.
Katherine didn’t accept the money, “On me. You have done so much for me before, so it’s on me
today.”
Marshall nodded, “Ok, then I will be frequent here.” Finishing, he turned to leave.
Katherine looked at his back, feeling that there was something changed.
Before, Marshall was a little bit clingy, but now he seemed to retrieve his attitude when he hadn’t had a
crush on her.
A short while later, she showed a smile. It’s a good thing. They had nothing to do with each other.
Margaret walked to her, “Mr. Grant came here for you, right?”
Katherine shook head, “Why? I have no contact with him for long. He just passed by, I think.”
Margaret nodded, “Yes. I have been with you all day, and you two did have no contact.”
She leaned against the bar, “But do you really give up on him? Marshall is a nice guy, with good
education and rich family.”
Katherine smiled, “It’s nothing about giving up, but I was not happy when being with him.”
No one spoke.
After the busy supper time, they had a rest.
Most of the items were sold, so Margaret began to cook more, with Katherine around, learning.
At the time, Margaret asked, “Didn’t the police find the men who kidnapped me?”
There was no news from the police, as well as Marshall, so that’s it.
Margaret sighed, “In fact, I don’t care whether they are arrested, after all, they didn’t hurt me. But this
thing keeps me suspended.”
Katherine nodded, “Yes. I feel in the same way.”
“But I think Mr. Grant may keep digging. Just now, I almost…” Said Margaret.
She lowered voice, “I almost ask when he can find the ringleader. But I deem that he has no
responsibility to help us, so I controlled myself.”
Katherine laughed. Yes, he had no responsibility.
It’s not busy at noon, so Katherine went to learn how to drive.
In the afternoon, Katherine took a taxi back to the store. But she met a traffic jam. She saw a mall
ahead of her, so she got off.
She went upstairs to the third floor for women’s garments.
When at the second floor, she saw Frances, who was on a call.
She looked unhappy, with an acerb and rude look.
Katherine then walked to her, while Frances was not aware of that.
Frances asked with an angry voice, “He went there every day?”
The man at the other end said something, Frances snorted, “That bitch, how dare she? I should have
hit her more badly.”
Hearing, Katherine figured out what she was angry of.
Frances was angry that Khalid was taking care of that woman in the hospital.
Cursing, Frances hung up.
With great rage, Frances didn’t notice Katherine. She went downstairs and Katherine followed.
Frances took a taxi to the hospital, and Katherine also followed her in a taxi.
Katherine guessed that Frances was intended to mess it up in the hospital.
Thinking, Katherine took her phone out and called Marshall.
After all, Marshall had given her hands, so she wanted to pay him off.
The call was soon answered, and his voice can tell no emotion, “Katherine.”
“I see your mother and she is heading to the hospital with rage. I think something is going wrong.”
Marshall paused and then gave a fast reply, hanging up.
Katherine put down the phone, supposing that Marshall was coming.
Katherine followed Frances to the hospital, seeing her getting off the taxi.
Then before she entered the hospital, Dr. Hollis stopped her.
Frances shook off his hand, pointing at him, “Why you stop me? I know everything. What did the bitch
pay you? Or you also have an affair with her?”
