CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 139

Katherine leaned on the couch and watched TV when Marshall finished breakfast and went to work.

The channels weren’t so good in the morning.

Katherine held the remoter and gradually got impatient.

Marshall went to the door and turned around to check her, finding she was acting casually when leaned on the couch to watch TV with crossed legs.

He would not consider such a rude girl for his wife and his friend.

He stared at her for a while and went out.

He drove to the company and found Peter was waiting for him in front of the elevator after he came out.

It seemed that Peter was deliberately waiting for him.

Peter hurriedly came when seeing him and said, “Boss, I have to tell you something.”

Marshall was a bit unexpected because he had never seen Peter behaving so nervously.

He smiled and asked, “Did someone bully you?”

Peter shook his head and answered, “No. Let’s talk about it after we get to the office.”

Peter was in a rush for hurriedly closing the door when Marshall got in.

He looked at Marshall nervously and said, “The Henderson family called early this morning.”

Marshall frowned and asked, “The Henderson family?”

Peter nodded, “Yes, Miss Clara’s family. They called Mr. Grant, seeming to discuss with him about cooperation.”

Marshall asked, “Who called?”

Peter took a deep breath and answered, “I can judge from Mr. Grant’s tone that it’s from old Mr. Henderson.”

Marshall didn’t say anything but showed a serious expression.

The Henderson family and the Grant family had never cooperated before.

Actually, Mrs. Grant had mentioned with Khalid that if the two families decided to be connected by marriage, they should have more dealings in business.

Khalid agreed at that but the Henderson family didn’t mention marriage connection at all.

It seemed old Mr. Henderson was not in a hurry to build relation with the Grant family in terms of both business and private relations. He was a very cautious person. Maybe he was afraid that their bond in marriage would interrupt their cooperation items.

However, now it seemed that he wanted to cooperate with them. Was it possible that he was making sure whether Marshall had divorced with Katherine or not? Hence, he decided to abandon the idea of letting his granddaughter marry Marshall? Maybe from now on, they could be normal business partners.

Marshall thought for a while and asked Peter, “What did Mr. Grant say? Did he respond him immediately?”

Peter shook his head and answered, “No. However, it seems that people from the Henderson family will come to discuss about it later.”

Marshall nodded and said, “OK, I see. You can go to work now.”

Peter was still worried and asked, “If we really cooperate with the Henderson family, will you meet Clara more frequently?”

Marshall was startled and said, “What are you talking about?”

Peter was concerned and explained, “My nice boss, remember that it’s only cooperation, don’t think about anything else.”

Marshall showed a cold face and commanded, “Get out.”

Peter hurriedly got out. However, he was still worried when standing in front of Marshall’s office door.

He took out his phone and texted Katherine. He thought Katherine would definitely be anxious when learning this news.

However, she didn’t text him for a long time. It seemed she didn’t see or didn’t care about this piece of news at all.

Peter rubbed his hair and got back to his office.

Old Mr. Henderson, along with Mr. Henderson, came to the Grant family’s company before lunch.

The two companies were of similar scale, with one running building materials business, and the other running furniture business.

They were in a very close position if they really cooperated.

Marshall was not in the group to greet people from the Henderson family. His father was there together with his uncles. It was not his turn to show up.

However, Peter was still worried and got to Marshall’s office again.

Marshall was checking data in the computer when frowning.

He knew the reason why Peter came again and said, “Don’t wandering. Go back to work.”

Peter slowly walked in front of his table and lowered his voice, asking, “Boss, I only want to ask you one question. Can you answer me patiently?”

Marshall looked up and didn’t say a word.

Peter bit his lip and asked, “You’re single now. Have you considered to get along with Miss Henderson?”
