Katherine walked for a long time and covered a good deal of ground outside.
Until it was all dark outside, she slowly returned to the main building.
Grandma Grant was sitting in the living room downstairs.
The TV was on, but Grandma Grant was obviously not watching TV. Her expression was a little
serious. What she was thinking!
Katherine went over and greeted Grandma Grant first, “Grandma, you haven’t rested yet.”
Grandma Grant was surprised for a moment. Then she turned to look at Katherine with a complicated
expression, “Well, sit down for a while. Would you like to come and watch TV with me for a while?”
Katherine paused and then went to her side. Grandma Grant’s routine had always been regular. At this
time, she should be resting upstairs.
Katherine sat down and smiled, “What? Clara hasn’t left yet, has she?”
Grandma Grant sighed, but she still helped Marshall. She said, “She must have something important to
say.”
Katherine didn’t disprove Grandma Grant’s explanation, but followed her words and said, “It should be.
I don’t think Marshall has the courage to bring Clara home to do something else.”
As soon as Grandma Grant heard Katherine said such words, she knew that Katherine cared about it.
She sighed, “What he did was way out of line. I will punish him for you, just you wait.”
Katherine didn’t say anything else. She just sat next to Grandma Grant. Both of them were staring at
the TV.
But obviously neither of them was watching TV.
Katherine felt that she had sat for a long time. Marshall and Clara still did not come down.
She couldn’t bear it anymore. She stood up and tidied up her clothes, “Grandma, I’m a little tired. I’ll go
up and rest first.”
Grandma Grant sighed and wanted to say something, but Katherine was already walking upstairs.
When walking to the corridor, Katherine glanced at the study. The door of the study was closed.
She looked slightly cold. Then she turned back to the room.
Normally Katherine was easy to fall asleep. However, this day she washed and changed clothes, laid in
bed for a long time, but the feeling of going to sleep still didn’t come.
Katherine finally sat up directly and stared at the door.
Marshall, the stupid man, hadn’t come back yet. Katherine didn’t know how much he had to say to
Clara.
Katherine actually had the urge to go over and take a look.
But her stubborn character made her suppress this feeling.
Maybe the stupid man was waiting for her to find him in the study.
She would not go to find him. She would not be fooled.
Katherine took out her cell phone and looked at it for a while.
Nothing interesting happened.
She finally put down her cell phone, turned off the light, and fell asleep.
Marshall had been discussing with Clara all the time.
The two read all the documents that Clara had photographed.
If the business that was in charge of Ryan of the Henderson family really existed, it would be a huge
business network.
Clara became more and more frightened when she saw these things.
She wiped her face, “My grandfather made such a big thing. It’s really easy to get into trouble. By then,
our Henderson family will be washed up.”
Looking at Ryan’s income from the running account, the big numbers were a bit scary.
It was too big. Sooner or later, it would be unearthed one day.
There was no wall without ears. The bigger the business was, the bigger the personnel structure. The
more people involved, the bigger the possibility to be unearthed.
Clara essentially was not a courageous person.
When she thought of those, her hands and feet started to tremble.
Marshall saved everything. Then he turned to look at her, “You have to calm down now, you can’t show
your faults. If you panic first, it’ll be difficult for you to do the next.”
Clara clasped her hands together, calmed herself down, and nodded, “I see. Don’t worry, I won’t hold
you back.”
The two discussed in the study for a long time. Finally Marshall checked the time and he realized, “It’s
so late now.”
Only then did Clara look down at her watch, “Yeah, I didn’t even check the time.”
She stood up, “Okay, it’s time for you to have a rest. I’m sorry to have kept you so long. I have to go”
Clara and Marshall came out of the study together. Marshall thought for a while, “Did you drive here by
yourself?”
Clara nodded, “Yes.”
Marshall smiled, “Okay, you go back and be careful.”
Marshall followed Clara downstairs, but when he reached the stairs, he looked down and saw that
Katherine was not downstairs, so he stopped again.
He said goodbye to Clara, turned around and went back upstairs, back to the room.
Pushing the door open, Marshall sighed when he saw that the room was dark.
Although it was late indeed, he was surprised that Katherine could fall asleep while Clara and he had
been in the study.
Marshall couldn’t understand that.
He stood there and thought about it, and finally turned around and walked out of the room.
Grandma Grant was walking to the stairs. When she saw Marshall coming out of the room, she
frowned.
Marshall walked over to Grandma Grant. Before he could speak, he heard Grandma Grant ask, “How
many important things do you need to talk to Clara? What kind of things that you have to talk until so
late?”
“Oh,” Marshall answered, “I didn’t pay much attention to the time, but there were indeed a lot of things.
We checked and analyzed them, and then it was too late. I know that it is indeed a little late.”
After speaking, Marshall hurriedly asked Grandma Grant, “Did Katherine say anything?”
Grandma Grant rolled her eyes at him, “What did she say? Of course, she said she could understand
you. What else could she say?”
She turned around and walked towards her room. At the same time, she said to Marshall, “Don’t take
the road to ruin. Kathy hasn’t remarried you yet, so you need to have some ideas on your own.”
Marshall stood still and sighed. He knew what should he do, but he was not reconciled to.
The last time Hector came back, he saw the scene. He was so angry that he couldn’t sleep well at
night.
This time, he wanted Katherine to be jealous.
He felt that he had used all his skills, but Katherine didn’t move at all.
The more Katherine acted like that, the more anxious he was in his heart. He couldn’t control himself
and always wanted to prove that he still had a place in Katherine’s heart.
Marshall stood there for a while, and finally turned around and went back to the room.
He didn’t mind to make a sound this time. When he went to the bathroom to wash up, he clacked the
cleaning items for a long time.
In fact, Katherine didn’t sleep soundly. She just dazed.
She woke up when she heard the sound, and then she sat up slowly and shouted to the bathroom, “Are
you crazy? You made such a loud sound.”
Marshall pushed open the bathroom door and leaned out, “Oh, I’m washing. Did I disturb you?”
Katherine glared at him, did not speak, and laid down again.
Marshall had already finished quite early before, so he quickly turned off the bathroom light and came
out to lie on the bed.
“Clara had brought a lot of documents to show me today. I didn’t pay attention to the time, so I stayed
up so late.”
Katherine didn’t want to pay attention to him at all. She closed her eyes and didn’t say a word.
