CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 87

After Mrs. Grant had left, Katherine felt at ease, she laid down on the bed again.

Not to mention, it was because the bed was soft and comfortable.

She wasn’t sleepy at all so she just laid there, otherwise, she also didn’t know what to do. So she just laid there until it gets dark outside.

She was too familiar with the Grant house.

She got out of bed and went out, wandered around for a while.

As the sun sets, the garden was a wonderful place to enjoy the scenery.

Katherine moved slowly to a rattan rocking chair that had a sunshade.

She sat down and rocked the chair.

This was her first time knowing how rich people enjoyed their life.

She took her phone out and browsed the internet.

The news that her divorce with Marshall hadn’t blown out.

Clara was good at keeping her composure.

Without knowing the inside story, she still managed to stay out of the Grant family’s business.

Katherine imagined herself in Clara’s position, she might not be able to act like Clara.

She would probably find someone to break the divorce news.

A woman would do anything for love.

As a woman, she could understand if Clara did it.

But Clara didn’t do it.

It was impressive.

She could remain calm.

Such people always had a way to gain what they wanted without exposing their motives at all.

It was most terrifying to be rival with this kind of person.

Luckily, she and Clara are not rivals anymore.

She and Marshall had nothing to do with each other.

Katherine hummed slowly and read the gossip.

As soon as Marshall reached home and got out of the car, he saw Katherine in the garden.

The garden was just next to the parking lot. Normally, the Grant house was quiet.

So he could hear her clearly when Katherine was humming a tune.

Katherine’s voice was pleasing to listen to her when she was singing a lyrical song.

Marshall went over slowly, tried not to make a sound as much as possible.

He stood near the rattan chair and looked at Katherine.

Not sure what she saw on the phone, her cheeks dimpled as she smiled.

She was wearing hot pants, took off her shoes, and sat cross-legged on the rattan chair.

She was humming while browsing her phone.

Her laziness and casual look were something Marshall hadn’t seen before.

Katherine looked at her phone for a long time, then looked up at the sky, thought it was about time to get back inside the house.

She lowered her legs and saw Marshall before putting her shoes on.

Marshall stood over there watching her with both his hands in his pockets, not sure how long he had been standing there.

Katherine raised her eyebrows, “Didn’t know Mr. Marshall has the habit of peeping on people.”

Marshall’s voice was flat, “Who are you calling a peeper? I didn’t hide and I’ve been standing here for a long time, it’s just you didn’t see me.”

Katherine bent over to put on her shoes.

As the collar was slightly loosened, so when she bent down, he could see her chest under the clothes.

Marshall slowly looked away, “By the way, I took some of your clothes over when I stop by your place in the afternoon.”

Katherine stood up and checked her clothing while she responded.

Those clothes were bought when she was still living at Grant’s house, the clothes were quite expensive but not her style at all.

Marshall brought Katherine over to the car and took out a bag from the car.

Marshall had been carrying it since Katherine didn’t ask him to hand it over. Both of them slowly walked towards the main building.

When they were walking, they heard another car coming back.

It was likely the people from the other houses.

Some of them didn’t treat Katherine nicely in the past, so she didn’t want to greet them.

She just pretended as if she heard nothing.

Marshall didn’t respond to it as well as he also pretended not to hear like Katherine.

Both of them went back to the main building.

Mrs. Grant was just sitting in the living room of the main building, and it seemed like she had been waiting for Marshall.

The stance that she was going to tattle almost made Katherine laugh.

When Mrs. Grant saw both of them enter together, she froze for a moment and then glared at Katherine.

Katherine shook her arms while walking upstairs, she told Marshall, “Bring me up the clothes later, thank you.”

Despite Katherine’s ended the request with a thank you, it still ticked Mrs.Grant off.

She didn’t want to argue with Katherine in front of Marshall, so she turned the maid beside her, “You, take it up for her.”

The maid hurriedly took the bag from Marshall’s hand and brought it to Katherine’s room.

Katherine looked at the maid and thanked her.

The maid whispered and said welcome.

Before leaving, she looked back at Katherine again.
