"Stop it."
Marshall whispered in her ear, “We are made for each other, will you consider getting back together
with me?”
Katherine didn’t answer, and Marshall repeated, “I mean remarry?”
Katherine didn’t want to talk to him about this topic and she thought Marshall was asking for moon.
In the end, Katherine didn’t even remember when she fell asleep, maybe because she was too tired,
she slept until noon the next day.
When she woke up, Marshall was no longer there. She looked at the time and was surprised.
Katherine quickly sat up and called Margaret. Margaret must be in a flurry in the shop alone.
It took a long time before Margaret answered, "Kathy."
She was in low spirits.
Katherine was a bit embarrassed, "I overslept today. You must be up to your neck in work."
"I’m okay." Margaret said, "Marshall called me this morning and said that you were too tired, so you
won’t come today. He asked Peter to come and help me, so I'm not that tired."
Katherine was surprised, "Marshall called?"
Margaret said yes.
Katherine gritted her teeth, but facing Margaret, her voice remained calm and asked, "Did he say
anything else?"
Margaret wanted to say that Marshall used Katherine's cell phone to call her and he said that Katherine
was exhausted and might not go to the shop today. He also said that he was sorry for causing Margaret
trouble and he would send someone to help her.
He added that he was to blame and he forgot that Katherine had to go to work the next day. In fact, he
did not need to say that. Margaret was shy picturing why Katherine was exhausted.
Margaret hesitated for a while and said nothing, she just smiled awkwardly and said, “Nothing more,
don’t worry.”
Katherine scratched her head and threw back the bedclothes to look at her body because she knew
Marshall’s thing and with no surprise, she found hickeys.
Katherine closed her eyes and said, "Okay, I see, you can get on with your work, I’ll see if I can go to
the shop in the afternoon."
Margaret said okay and hung up the phone.
Katherine took her clothes to cover herself, went into the bathroom, and looked in the mirror.
Well, her neck and collarbone were covered with hickeys. Marshall was sucking and nibbling all over
her body.
She stood in front of the mirror for a long time and calculated the days, it should be her safe period.
Katherine’s period has always been right on time, and she didn't want to take medicine for fear of
injuring her health. Since it was her safety period, she didn't think much about it.
Katherine took a bath and went out. When she went downstairs, she saw Marshall in the living room
and realized that it was Saturday. Since she opened the shop, she had lost track of days.
Marshall was standing in the living room making a phone call, which seemed to be a business call.
Katherine slowly went downstairs, in fact she didn't know how to face Marshall. She didn't show respect
for Marshall’s feelings before, but she was quite enthusiastic last night, which made her feel terribly
ashamed.
Marshall heard her, he turned around and smiled at Katherine, "So you woke up."
Katherine tried her best to make herself look natural, "Yeah, have you had breakfast yet?
Marshall shook his head, "Let's go out to eat."
Katherine didn’t want to cook anymore, mainly because she was tired.
She nodded, “I’m ready. Let’s go.”
They came back by taxi last night, so Marshall’s car was not here, and the two went to a restaurant
near Katherine’s home.
Katherine stretched every few steps and Marshall seemed to dislike her for walking too slowly, so he
came over and took her arm. She was dragged by Marshall reluctantly, and went faster.
Clara sat in the car and looked at Katherine and Marshall. She went to Katherine's door step last night
so she knew Marshall was there all night.
She came back early this morning and waited for a long time, and she finally saw them. She could tell
that they had sex.
Katherine was wearing the shirt with lack neckline.
Clara closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the chair. She had expected it, and she didn't know
why she had to come and upset herself.
Katherine didn't know that Clara had come over, otherwise she would seize the chance to insult Clara.
She and Marshall went to the restaurant, Marshall ordered the food, and she ordered the drinks. She
was hungry and thirsty.
Marshall stared at her, and naturally he saw the hickeys. In fact, he did it on purpose.
Katherine kept yawning, "I'll go to the shop after lunch, and you should leave."
Marshall smiled, "Are you sure you can go to the shop like this?"
Katherine was stunned and saw Marshall staring at her neck. She hurriedly covered her neck, “The
devil you did!”
Marshall were gentle, "So, I suggest you go home and rest. I'll go to the shop. Peter is there, so don't
worry."
Katherine was unhappy, “You are so considerate because you felt guilty.”
Marshall laughed, looking happy, "Yeah, I am guilty, I made you like this and it is my fault."
Katherine hurriedly stopped him, “Having sex doesn’t mean anything. It’s just that everything felt right
at the time. Don’t get me wrong and don’t be clingy. You should go back to your company and I don’t
need you to take care of me."
Katherine was rejecting Marshall and Marshall was about to say something, but ended up saying
nothing. Katherine finally showed some sign of accepting him last night and Marshall didn’t want to ruin
it.
Marshall nodded, "Okay."
They had lunch and came out of the restaurant together, Katherine went home and Marshall was not
with her, he waited for the taxi. Clara saw him and parked her car next to him, she lowered the car
window, "Marshall, what a coincidence."
Marshall was surprised when he saw it was Clara, he nodded, "What a coincidence."
Clara acted like she was just passing by, "Are you taking a taxi? I can give you a ride."
Marshall didn't get in the car, but looked at Clara, "Are you going to see the client?"
"No." Clara smiled, "My brother went to cram school and I sent him over."
Marshall nodded and looked around. There were not too many taxis on the road, so he got in the car.
But he said, "I'll sit in the back, in case someone sneaks a photo of us."
Clara seemed to agree, "That was so thoughtful of you."
Marshall sat in the back, and Clara started the engine. She asked, "The company or the Grant
Residence?"
Marshall turned and looked out the window, "Kathy's shop, she won't be there today, so I'll go and take
a look."
Clara pursed her lips and paused, but then she said, "Is Miss Jordan ill?"
