Marshall called Clara on his way out of the Grant Residence.
Clara was a little surprised when she received the phone call from Marshall.
She was in the living room, and Old Mr. Henderson was not far from her.
Old Mr. Henderson heard Clara’s phone ring and looked at her.
Clara showed her phone to him and said, “It’s Marshall.”
Hearing that Marshall called, Old Mr. Henderson was happy and nodded, “Have a nice chat.”
Clara pretended to be shy, stood up and pointed outside.
Old Mr. Henderson thought she was shy to talk to Marshall in front of him, so he nodded.
Clara went out to answer the phone and asked what happened.
Marshall said what had happened today in the hospital, and asked Clara if there was anything wrong
with the Henderson family.
Clara was stunned and thought about it seriously. She said, “I think so. My grandfather and my father
always closed the door to discuss something, but I don’t know what they are discussing about. I tried to
hear it outside the door for several times. But it didn’t work.”
Clara hesitated when she said this. She then said, “I’ve been looking for a chance to talk to my father
these two days. I’ll see if I can persuade him to give up some of the Henderson businesses. Marshall, I
hope you can understand me. Can we just pretend nothing has happened?”
Marshall didn’t necessarily have to destroy the Henderson family. He thought for a while and said, “You
can try to persuade him first. It’s best for him to give up. But there’s another thing I want you to know. If
I know it’s your family who has tried to hurt Katherine, no matter what I’m going to do, I hope you can
understand me.”
Clara didn’t speak. This phone call ended in her silence.
Clara held her phone and wanted to turn around to enter the house. As a result, she saw Old Mr.
Henderson standing next to the floor-to-ceiling window and staring at her.
Clara was surprised and then slowly entered the living room. Old Mr. Henderson didn’t seem to be in a
good mood as before.
He stared at Clara. “You two didn’t talk for a long time.”
Clara nodded, “Marshall just asked me something. Nothing else.”
Old Mr.
Henderson was silent for a while and then he said, “Don’t let me down. The whole family depends on
you. But you know you can’t support the family alone. Do you know what I mean?”
Clara wanted to say she didn’t understand. But when Old Mr. Henderson looked at her, she didn’t dare
to say that, so she nodded.
Seeing this, Old Mr. Henderson said, “There’s a movie coming out recently. You can watch it with
Marshall. I know that Katherine is pregnant and about to deliver. She might not go out.”
Clara wanted to say that Marshall would not go with her, but she still nodded after thinking, “OK, I’ll try.”
Old Mr. Henderson said, “Your father went to the company. In fact, I can tell that he doesn’t want to
handle all these matters, but he still persists in doing this. You should think about your father. You
should find someone who can help you and support our family as soon as possible.”
Then he turned around to go upstairs and said, “I have fought all my life for our company. I can’t watch
it being destroyed when I’m still alive. After I die, you can do whatever you want. I don’t care.”
Clara was helpless and stared at his back until he disappeared on the second floor.
Marshall hung up the phone and called his men to asked them to investigate what had happened in the
hospital.
Besides, he asked about the transaction at the bank.
His men said they were caught when were trading.
But they were smart and didn’t trade with goods on site.
His men hadn’t found out how exactly they traded goods yet.
Marshall became excited when he heard it. He was interested in trade like this.
Marshall drove directly to the warehouse.
Unlike before, it was bustling now.
People there could literally form a soccer team. If Kyle and Mrs. Grant knew about it, they would be
very happy.
After sleeping at home for a while, Katherine woke up and felt much better.
She touched her arm and thought about the girl who had been stabbed in the hospital. She didn’t know
what would people do that. That was cruel!
How skillful they were in intrigue!
After sitting on bed for a while, Katherine went downstairs.
Mrs. Grant came.
She didn’t know what happened to Katherine. She brought some fruit and said it was good for pregnant
women.
Seeing Katherine, Mrs. Grant went to wash some fruit for her to eat.
Katherine was in low spirit. She sat down, tried some fruit and then stopped.
Mrs. Grant was chitchatting. She mentioned that she saw Lydia when she came over.
Lydia was nice to her and held a much better attitude towards her than before. She also took the
initiative to ask when Marshall and Katherine would be married again.
Speaking of this, Mrs. Grant laughed and said, “Lydia seems to really care about you two.”
Katherine leaned against the sofa and said, “Sometimes I think Lydia cares more about me than
Lucas.”
Grandma Grant sighed, “If you marry Marshall again, she might not think too much.”
See, that was all they wanted to say.
But Katherine thought about Marshall’s reaction today, she felt very safe because of him.
She felt that she might never meet such a satisfying man in her life.
Katherine took a deep breath, “Let me think about it.”
Mrs. Grant said. “You don’t know. There are many girls out there waiting to date Marshall.”
Katherine smiled, then said to Mrs. Grant, “You also don’t know there are many boys out there waiting
to date me.”
Grandma Grant couldn’t help laughing. “It’s really fun seeing you two get along well like this. You two
might become good friends like sisters if you are of similar age.”
Mrs. Grant also couldn’t help laughing. “I used to think Katherine was so annoying. Now I really like her.
I don’t know how.”
Katherine felt much more comfortable to talk to Mrs. Grant like this.
Grandma Grant naturally asked Mrs. Grant to have dinner here. She joked, “You can call Khalid and tell
him to go home to have dinner with us. I barely recall what he looks like because he has not been at
home for quite a long time.”
