Katherine was startled and the serious look on her face completely faded away.
She looked at Marshall disdainfully, “Will you drink you water or not? Go away if you don’t want it.”
She then stood up and went upstairs without waiting for Marshall’s reaction.
Marshall chuckled when sitting on the couch and watched her figure disappeared in the staircase.
He didn’t leave immediately and was absorbed in thought.
Katherine decided not to speak to Marshall and went to bed after washing up.
She was exhausted after a busy day of working in the store and going to the Walters family.
After tidying herself up, she got on bed and quickly fell asleep.
She had a good sleep that she didn’t hear any noise from outside.
Katherine stretched the next morning and walked by the window.
She was surprised to find that Marshall’s car was still in the yard.
Why did Marshall come here in the early morning?
She hurriedly went downstairs and found there was nobody.
She stood for a while in the living room and turned around to go upstairs.
The guest room Marshall used to live was closed. However, it didn’t lock from inside and Katherine
easily opened it.
Marshall already got up with his pants on and he was about to wear the T-shirt.
Katherine was standing by the door, looking at him. Marshall was also staring at her when holding his
clothes in the air.
Katherine finally got angry after they looking at each other for a long time. She shouted, “Marshall,
shame on you. Why did you spend a night here?”
When she was yelling, she picked up the pillow and smashed it towards Marshall’s direction.
Marshall dodged and smiled, “I was exhausted last night and it would be dangerous if I drove home.”
Katherine didn’t believe in him and continued throwing the pillow on him, “Shame on you. We don’t
have any relation now. Then why are you spending a night in my place? Do you know it will bring a
damage to my fame?”
At first, Marshall dodged for several times. However, it seemed that Katherine’s action wouldn’t come to
an end. Hence, he directly raised up his hand, grabbed the pillow and threw it to the other side.
He squeezed her wrist and said, “We have been living together before. Why are you being so
sensitive?”
Katherine was so angry that she stood on her feet, “Is that the same? Marshall, I have never expected
that you are such an impudent man.”
Marshall grabbed Katherine into his arms hardly, “Do I?”
He asked with a smile. Katherine opened her eyes widely, “Of course you are. Do you think you…”
Before she finished her sentence, Marshall used one hand to grab her head and kissed on her.
His series of action was aggressive, which made it hard for Katherine to fight back.
Katherine’s eyes almost popped out. She tried to push him with her hands and stepped with her feet,
but she couldn’t stop Marshall at all.
Marshall held her tightly in his arms, moved towards the bed and pressed Katherine on the bed hardly.
He was still in his consciousness and knew to use hands to support, in case all the weight wouldn’t fall
on Katherine’s body.
Katherine raised her hands against Marshall’s chest and showed a serious look of defence, “What are
you doing? Get up.”
Marshall curled up his lip and smiled evilly, “You already regard me as a shameless man, so I decide to
show my shameless behaviour to you.”
Katherine supported her upper body and wanted to get up, saying, “Go away.”
Marshal raised up his hand and pressed her shoulder, then pressed her on the bed again, “Katherine, I
also share the same opinion that it’s inappropriate for me to spend a night here. How about making
everything reasonable?”
Katherine frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Marshall smiled, “How about we remarry? You see, after remarrying…”
“Go away, Marshall! Otherwise I won’t control myself from beating you.” Katherine showed a serious
look.
Marshall stared at her for a while and slowly bend down.
Their noses sticked together and could feel each other’s smile.
Katherine was so surprised that her goose popped up.
She didn’t dare say anything because she was afraid that she would accidentally kiss him.
Marshall stared at her for a while and suddenly kissed on her face, then he released her and stood up.
Katherine was startled, then she cursed, “Asshole.”
However, instead of anger, her voice was full of uneasiness.
Katherine waited for a while, got up and tidied her hair.
Marshall looked down at her. He suddenly felt it was not a good idea for his previous suggestion.
It was him who said he wanted to get divorced and it was also him who stood up after a while to
suggest remarriage. It seemed that he treated marriage casually.
He waited for a while and said, “Sorry, I didn’t consider your feeling.”
Katherine took a deep breath and responded, “Put on your clothes and go away. I don’t want to see
you now.”
Marshall also knew that he made Katherine uncomfortable. He didn’t explain much and grabbed his
clothes to leave.
Katherine was sitting on the bed and finally moved a bit after a long time.
How dare he put up with such a suggestion!
Marshall left Katherine’s place and directly went to the company. He was still in trance after returning to
the office.
He wasn’t suggesting about remarriage on purpose and it was simply an accident.
However, now he felt instead of repelling, he was looking forward to remarriage.
Marshall leaned against the chair and stared at nowhere for a long time.
However, he didn’t think that Katherine would easily agree with him.
He had disappointed her a lot.
Marshall was busy for a whole morning and went to have lunch with Peter at noon.
They accidentally met Clara in the halfway.
It seemed that Clara had waited for a while. She stood up when seeing Marshall was here.
Marshall was startled and went towards her, asking, “What’s up?”
Clara smiled and said, “Nothing important. It’s just that auntie keeps calling me these days…”
She stopped saying but Marshall could already guess what was going on!
He showed a terrible expression and responded, “You don’t have to handle this thing. Next time my
mom call, just ignore it.”
Clara seemed to be a bit anxious, “After all, she…”
“We are adults and have to be responsible for what we have done. Okay. It’s time for me to have
lunch.” Marshall checked the time and went away.
Clara nodded, “Okay, then I won’t disrupt you.”
Marshall left with Clara from the company and departed in front of the gate when they got on their own
car.
Frances was waiting in the café opposite to the Grant company.
She picked up the phone and called Clara when seeing two cars drive away.
Clara’s voice sounded the same and asked, “Auntie, what’s wrong?”
Frances pretended that she didn’t know anything and also smiled, “Nothing. I just want to ask what’re
you up to recently!”
Clara paused for a while and replied, “I am in the company. We have been busy recently. I am
considering about inviting you to have meals but can’t find the best chance.”
Frances compressed her lips and said, “Well.”
Clara chuckled, “Have you seen what happened on the internet? I think things will be ease down after
some time.”
Frances waited for a long time and said, “Yes, I think so.”
She then thought for a while and asked, “Have you contacted Marshall? He’s mad with me and don’t
pick up my phone. I am thinking about if you can do me a favour to ask him out. I want to tell him
something.”
Clara didn’t reply and seemed to be hesitated.
Frances continued, “Your work has connections and will probably see each other often. You can just tell
him you have something to talk about.”
Clara compressed her lips when driving and didn’t reply.
