Katherine slept right till the late afternoon and just curled up in bed comfortably.
She remembered how she got home.
After staring at the ceiling for a while, she heard the noise coming from the yard which was pretty
audible as the window was open.
It was Marshall’s voice.
Katherine didn’t go to check it out and just lay on the bed.
Marshall must be talking to the company staff as he was constantly throwing business jargons which
Katherine can’t understand and didn’t feel like to.
After taking a few deep breathes, she grabbed the phone and followed the hospital’s Wechat account
to check the blood test result.
But the result hadn’t come back as it wasn’t time yet.
Katherine sighed as she didn’t really know what kind of result she wanted to get.
The phone rang while she was pinching at the phone.
Katherine glanced at the caller ID and found it was an unknown number but it was in the same place
with that woman’s number.
It must be that woman found out that she’d blocked her number, so she just got a new number to call
her.
Katherine sneered and threw the phone away.
She then washed her face in the bathroom and went downstairs.
Marshall had finished his phone call and was back in the living room to read the files.
Seeing that Katherine was downstairs, he immediately came forward and asked, “Are you feeling
okay?”
Katherine shook her head, “I’m all right.”
Actually, she was telling the truth. She just felt extremely sleepy and that was all.
Marshall nodded and felt her forehead, “You seemed fine to me.”
He then grabbed an oral solution from the desk, “I just asked someone to send this over. You are low
on energy, so this might be helpful.”
Katherine looked at Marshall and said, “You don’t have to look after me here.”
Marshall cracked a smile and really didn’t really mind Katherine drawing a line between them now.
He even continued, “Well, who else should I care for? I made a promise to my grandpa.”
Katherine closed her eyes and really didn’t know how to strike back Marshall’s words.
He would use grandpa as his excuse every time he got nothing better to say.
How brazen!
So Katherine didn’t retort.
Marshall opened the oral liquid and handed it to Katherine.
Katherine just took it without fighting back.
She was perfectly aware that she was getting weak recently.
Though she seemed frisky, she was actually inflicted with sub-health.
Marshall waited till Katherine drank the solution and pursued, “Are you hungry? I ordered a Chinese
Herbal soup. It’s in the pot now and is still warm. Should I get you some?”
Katherine looked at Marshall earnestly.
Well, no matter how cold-faced a man may appear to be, he can actually be sweet-hearted when he
wanted to.
Katherine would never have imagined Marshall to be this heart-warming.
She let out a sigh and replied okay.
Marshall was obviously pleased by her answer and went to the kitchen hurriedly.
Katherine stared at Marshall and seemed to see the old she in him.
She was once inferior in the marriage and was even more so than Marshall now.
When did they have swapped identity?
Katherine went to the dining room.
Marshall had served the soup which was in the perfect temperature.
Katherine wasn’t actually hungry before, but she was less vomiting when she smelled the soup and felt
like she could have some.
Marshall sat in across Katherine and was constantly checking on her.
“Is it too hot? It this salty? Is it to your taste?”
Katherine first ignored his question and gradually grew impatient, “You can go read your files if you
don’t have anything to do now. Stop annoying me.”
Marshall nodded and stood up, “Just call me when you need me.”
Then he left the dining room.
Holding the bowl, Katherine chuckled and figured that she should really let Frances and Clara see
Marshall pestering at her.
She wondered how would Clara react.
Would she feel embarrassed after swaggering before her in the store the other day?
After finishing the soup, Katherine went back to the room.
She just wanted to sleep now that she felt much better.
Marshall followed her and after tucking her into bed, he went downstairs.
After getting some shut eyes, Katherine took her phone out.
She logged into the hospital official account and got her result.
Actually, she didn’t really understand all the data and terms on the paper, but there was reference value
down it.
Though she can’t figure out what did it mean, google could.
Katherine googled her result and immediately got the answer.
Unlike all the different search results she got this morning, this time, she got a definite answer.
Katherine was dumbfounded for a moment and just regained herself.
She actually had guessed the result while she was waiting.
Katherine put down the phone and put her hands on her belly.
Suddenly, she got this weird feeling rushing towards her.
What was she exactly feeling right now?
Happy? Sad? Regretful? Distressed?
Well, all of them maybe.
Katherine closed her eyes and teared up.
How can she get pregnant at this time? How?
Katherine tossed over, curled up in bed and them slowly drifted off.
Margaret was inattentive all afternoon.
Kyle went to the store at dusk.
He seemed to be passing by and frowned when he didn’t see Katherine, “What happened? Did Kathy
skip work today?”
Margaret answered lowly, “She didn’t come here all day. She is feeling under the weather.”
“Uncomfortable?” Kyle got agitated, “I will go check on her.”
Margaret immediately asked, “Are you going to Katherine’s home? Can you bring me? I also want to
see her.”
Kyle didn’t think too much and nodded, “Sure. Shut the door first and we’ll go there together.”
There were no customers at this time, so Margaret left with Kyle after tidying up.
They straight went to Katherine’s residence.
Marshall was there the whole time and called Peter to take the files back to the company when he was
done reading.
Peter saw Kyle’s car driving in when he just got out of Katherine’s house.
So he stopped and waited by the door.
Kyle parked the car and got out with Margaret.
Peter chortled, “You are also here?”
Kyle nodded and sounded anxious, “I heard that Katherine was feeling unwell. How is she?”
While answering, Kyle passed Peter and went into the house.
But Margaret didn’t follow and said to Peter while looking into the house, “Marshall is here, right?”
“What? Yeah. He’s here all day. I sent the files over. I did the legwork all day.”
Peter then waved the files in his hand.
Margaret took a deep breath, “Marshall sure cares about Katherine.”
“You bet.” Peter was clueless and just directly answered, “Katherine is our boss’s sweet boo. He
treasures her deeply.”
Margaret frowned, “But didn’t they get divorced?”
Peter hissed, “Well, so what? Don’t you know there is a thing called getting remarried in this world?
They can well get remarried if they love each other.”
