CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 168

Katherine looked around them and didn’t find uncle Henderson.

Therefore, it meant that they were talking all the time.

So long that Marshall even forgot she was upstairs?

Well. What a good man Marshall was!

Katherine observed them for a while and found Clara was always smiling. She was wearing a long and red dress today, portraying her high height and perfect figure and making her look charming and enchanting. No man could say no to this kind of woman.

Katherine rolled back her eyes and turned to look at Marshall.

He was also smiling.

As far as Katherine knew, Marshall seldom smiled, and even if he did, he could only give a shallow smile. She could tell that Marshall was truly happy when talking with Clara. Thinking of this, she snorted and turned around to leave.

There were some small trees, although they were not tall enough, their leaves were flourishing. Besides, there was a bench under the tree and nobody was around.

Katherine sat on the bench and put off her shoes. She was not in a hurry to stick the band, instead, she simply sat on the bench with bare feet.

She gradually held out a breath. She didn’t have dinner yet and only ate some desserts in the buffet area. Now her stomach didn’t feel good.

She raised up her head and watched the sky.

Sky in the city was always covered with something blurry and misty.

She put her arms on the back of the bench and felt unreconciled.

Clara only had a good luck by being in such a prestigious family. She would be as same as everyone if she was not born in such family. What was she proud of?

Katherine was getting more and more aggrieved when thinking of this. She kicked on the grass beside her.

This was a good place for her to release oppressed feelings.

It was relaxing to sit here when night wind blew, refreshing her mind.

She decided not to think to much, but leaned on the bench casually and heard nature’s voice around her.

She gradually felt peaceful by sitting her for a long time.

She hummed a tune and looked at the sky up her head.

Maybe it was because she didn’t sleep well in the noon. She got sleepy after finally relaxing herself.

Katherine smiled and wondered whether the host would feel when finding someone sneaked out and felt asleep on the bench.

After a long time, she heard Clara’s voice. Her gentle voice as same as always.

Clara asked, “No way. Maybe she went to find something to eat.”

Marshall’s voice was anxious and replied, “I didn’t see her here.”

Katherine opened her closed eyes and stared at the sky. Finally, this man came to find her. However, she didn’t move and still leaned on the bench.

Marshall looked around and didn’t find any sign of Katherine. He was worried because it was the first time for Katherine to attend this kind of party and he had no idea where she was.

He was concerned about her and decided to check the rockery. However, Katherine wasn’t there.

Clara followed behind and kept comforting him, “She is an adult and won’t easily get lost. Don’t worry. We will find her.”

Katherine already found their figures a long time ago. She showed a revengeful smile and thought Marshall would finally have the same feeling with her.

She was delighted and her aggrieved mood was gone. She wanted for a long time and finally heard the sound of Marshall’s steps.

Actually, she didn’t recognize it was Marshall because Clara kept on talking with him. Then her voice suddenly stopped.

Katherine curled up her lip because she heard Marshall’s relaxing voice.

Katherine was leaned on the bench with closed eyes and seemed to fall tight asleep.

Marshall gradually approached her and Clara stopped a few miles in front of her.

Marshall wanted towards the bench and called, “Katherine.”

Katherine opened her eyes slowly and smiled, “You’re here.”

There was a bandage in her hand and also one in Marshall’s pocket.

Marshall hesitated for a while and finally said, “I have been looking for you for a long time.”
