Marshall was guilty every time Katherine mentioned about the past days. He couldn’t deny that he had
done terrible things to her.
No matter when Katherine talked about it, he couldn’t argue with her.
Katherine said in a cold voice, “Don’t call me if there is nothing important. I don’t want to hear your
voice.”
After saying this, she directly hanged up the phone.
She stood still and compressed her lips, showing a serious expression after hanging up the phone.
Margaret stood beside her. She finally said after staring at her for a long time, “Kathy, why did Marshall
call? Is he still disturbing you?”
Katherine didn’t reply and seemed to be unhappy.
Actually, Marshall didn’t do anything to make her angry except sneaking in her home last night.
However, his irresponsible attitude when treating everything really displeased her.
He would only act silly and ambiguous to solve things. It was impossible!
Katherine stood for a while and grabbed her hair. She couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her.
She turned around and left the bar, standing angrily in front of the door.
Margaret compressed her lips and looked at Katherine. Her good mood was completely gone.
After a long time, Margaret came beside Katherine with a cup of coffee and asked carefully, “Kathy,
what’s wrong? I thought you already broke up with him.”
Katherine also thought she and Marshall were done. They quarrelled a few times recently and she
thought their relation was completely over. However, it seemed Marshall didn’t think in this way.
Marshall’s temperament changed quickly, even faster than women.
Finding Katherine didn’t reply, Margaret came close and asked again, “Why did he call? Is he still in
love with you?”
Katherine didn’t know how to answer this question either. Maybe only Marshall himself knew whether
he still liked her or not.
However, Katherine thought Marshall was just unwilling by keeping bothering her without telling he
liked her.
Margaret continued saying with hesitation, “It seems Marshall treats you really nice. Maybe he is still
thinking about you, but I cannot be sure when he has spent night with another woman. If he still likes
you, how could he be with other women? It doesn’t make sense even he is acting in the public.”
Yes. Marshall had spent night with another woman. Although the news hadn’t given an exact report,
people would already tell what happened between him and that woman on that day.
Katherine waited for a long time and finally replied, “Yes.”
Margaret licked her lip and looked confused, asking, “So why did he call? Is he trying to reconcile with
you?”
Katherine smiled, “I don’t know. It’s getting harder and harder for me to figure out what the man thinks.”
If Marshall really wanted to reconcile with her, he should keep a distance from other women at least.
He must be daydreaming when putting his feet on two boats.
Katherine was a bit irritable and said, “Well, well, let’s stop talking about him. I will get angry when
mentioning about him.”
At first, Margaret wanted to ask more, but now she remained silent.
They weren’t busy today and were standing in front of the door.
After a while, when they were about to turn around to go back to the store, a car slowing came towards
them.
The driver rolled down the window before the car stopped. It was Ralph.
He shouted, “Katherine, wait.”
Katherine was surprised and stood still.
Ralph’s car almost broke down because of last crash. However, it wasn’t a big deal for a wealthy man.
Now he changed a more coquettish one.
Margaret hadn’t seen him before and stood beside the door.
Ralph laughed, “Well, it seems you’re not busy today. I have been observing you from the other side for
a while.”
Katherine nodded and asked, “Yes, we’re not. What’s up?
Ralph was in a good attitude this time. Maybe it was because Katherine had helped him last time.
He got off the car and replied, “Nothing. I am just dropping by.”
He carried a box of fruit from the passenger seat and said, “I just received it from airlift. Have a try.”
Katherine blinked her eyes and didn’t know what he meant.
Ralph carried the box to the store. Katherine and Margaret looked at each other and also got in.
Ralph put the box on the table and said, “Grandma is talking about you recently. You’d better visit her if
you have spare time.”
Katherine smiled, “Do you misunderstand something after I helped you last time?”
Ralph looked at her and asked, “Did my words make you confused?”
He directly sat on the chair and said, “I didn’t mean anything. I just thought it would be too mean for me
if I still treat you terribly after you helped me last time.”
Katherine sat opposite to him and said, “I didn’t have any choice but to help you because you were
drunk at that time. I also didn’t mean anything else. I don’t want to mess up with the Walters family. I
don’t know how to face you when you’re here. Maybe you can forget last time and let’s pretend nothing
happened. Okay?”
Ralph smiled, “Katherine, why are you being so cautious on everything?”
He leaned against the chair and said, “I also don’t want to be your brother-in-law or something. It’s
really awkward to have a sister, but I still have to thank you for helping me.”
Then he took a deep breath and asked, “Well, I want to ask that did I rave last time when I was
sleeping in your house?”
Katherine compressed her lips and said, “What kind of rave? Did you mean calling a girl’s name?”
Ralph suddenly got stupefied and his expression changed, “What have you heard?”
Katherine thought she had made a right guess. It seemed Ralph got so drunk that night because of a
girl.
There is saying goes that every hero fails to pull through beauty pass. Katherine was just being curious
about what kind of beauty would make Ralph concerned.
Katherine smiled, “I didn’t hear anything. You were just too drunk and kept murmuring. It seemed to be
a girl’s name, but I didn’t hear it clearly.”
Ralph stared Katherine for a long time and didn’t ask anything.
Maybe he was afraid that he would expose himself by telling her too much things.
Margaret went inside the bar to prepare them with coffees.
Ralph wasn’t being polite and drank the coffee without saying thanks, “I heard Marshall just went on a
business trip.”
Katherine frowned and didn’t know why he suddenly mentioned about Marshall.
Ralph looked up at her and continued, “Actually, I have seen him took the woman away on that day.”
Katherine and Margaret were both surprised.
Margaret asked first, “Do you mean that he has really spent a night with a woman?”
