CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 54

Katherine meant to unwind herself by visiting the swimming pool.

But now Marshall was over, she couldn’t relax.

She could never loosen up in front of him.

No matter how she pretended to be cool on the outside, she was edgy inside.

Leaned against the chair, Katherine said lightly, “Do you still want to hang around a bit. I want to go back to my room.”

Peter glanced at Marshall who was blank.

“Let’s go then.”

He didn’t like to be hit on, so he was in no mood to enjoy now after what happened before with that girl.

Then the three left.

Katherine changed into her clothes and waited outside for Marshall and Peter.

Stared at Katherine with the corner of his eyes, Peter said to Marshall, “Boss, let’s go out tomorrow. I already had a great place in mind.”

Marshall didn’t care, so he just nodded, “Okay.”

Peter got excited and raised his eyebrows at Katherine who just ignored him completely.

Peter suddenly remembered something after they got out of the elevator, “Right, Katherine. Pack your stuff later and move to Marshall’s room. I will check out your room for you.”

Katherine frowned and wanted to argue something, but was cut off by Peter, “No married couple would sleep in separate rooms. Don’t treat others like fools. Those mean guys in WF Group are probably digging our loopholes.”

To stop Katherine and Marshall from wasting their breaths, Peter added, “Even if they checked the security footage that day and found that you were indeed together, they could still spread rumors about Marshall having nasty relations with female staff if you two act alienated now. you can never imagine what else can those bad people pull off.”

Katherine didn’t want to hear Peter’s another speech, so she just waved her hands, “Okay, okay. Fine. I will move later. Stop it.”

Then she walked towards her room.

Marshall recollected his thought and also stepped towards his room silently.

Stood in place, Peter looked left and right and then smiled.

After returning to her room, Katherine started dozing off by the bed.

She didn’t bring many items over, so she didn’t even pack one suitcase full.

Peter knocked on the door in a while and offered to help her move rooms.

Katherine opened the door and pointed at the suitcase, “Just this.”

“Okay!” Peter smiled and wheeled the suitcase out.

Marshall was looking at the laptop when Katherine walked in and he didn’t even turn his head.

Katherine just glanced at him and walked straight into the bedroom.

This room was just like hers and had one bed.

Katherine stared at the bed for a minute and walked out, “Where should I sleep tonight?”

Marshall and Peter both were puzzled.

They had never thought about this problem.

They got divorced, and even though they had sex before, it would be weird if they slept on the same bed again.

Peter smiled awkwardly and didn’t know how to respond.

Marshall thought for a while and said, “You get the bed and I would sleep on the sofa.”

Katherine seemed to be pleased with Marshall’s answer and nodded, “Thank you then, Mr. Grant.”

Then she just entered the bedroom and changed into her pajamas.

Crossing her legs on the bed, Katherine looked at the bedsheets.

Marshall was a bit of a neat freak, so Peter must have bought this new sheet.

Marshall would never use the hotel bedding.

He was full of pet peeves.

After meditating for a while, she lied down and just felt weirdly uncomfortable.

But she can’t tell what went wrong.

She was just feeling fidgety.

She wanted to check what Marshall was doing but hesitated.

This thought kept on haunting her which was pretty depressing.

She dared not to close her eyes because all she could see were the images of her making love with Marshall that night.
