CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 200

Katherine looked at the family carefully because she was used to admiring of their life. However, nobody cared for her before, not even now.

The child laughed along with the mother. Although the father showed a calm face, she could sense his joy from his eyes.

Katherine hurriedly looked away and found someone was observing her not far away.

She didn’t know how long he had been there. The scene was similar with the day when she wanted to climb the wall and he observed her down the tree.

Lucas found Katherine had noticed him and went towards her, asking, “Why are you here alone?”

Katherine looked at him and responded, “You’re also alone.”

Lucas sat beside her and said, “I am going to attend the birthday party for my father and I am here to find what I should buy as gift.”

Katherine was a little startled and asked, “Well, you father…no, uncle is going to celebrate his birthday?”

Lucas smiled and said, “Yes. Didn’t Marshall tell you? Just a week later and it’s going to be held in the old house.”

Katherine licked her lip and started to make up a lie, “My mind is filled with the idea of opening a store. Maybe he has told me and I didn’t listen to him carefully.”

Actually, in the whole marriage between Katherine and Marshall, younger Mr. Grant never held birthday party.

Katherine also didn’t know when was his birthday.

Lucas nodded and replied, “Well, now you know it and you must attend.”

Katherine nodded and said, “Okay, I will come.”

She didn’t know whether men in the Grant family would gather around to have meals to celebrate birthday party. People in the Grant family all had weak connection with the family and seldom spoke to each other. In that case, the party would be embarrassing.

Lucas hadn’t gone to the supermarket yet, hence, he turned to Katherine and suggested, “If you have time, can you accompany me to buy the gift?”

Katherine was startled. Gift? She didn’t think it was necessary because younger Mr. Grant wouldn’t like the gift she chose.

However, Lucas thought it was a good idea. He stood up and said, “Come on. Anyway, it seems you don’t have anything to do today. Let’s go and have a look.”

He didn’t give Katherine any chance to refuse and went straight to the supermarket.

Katherine stood up and called him. However, he didn’t show any reaction.

Katherine frowned and said, “In my home, we only have to bring some pork if someone is going to have a birthday. I don’t know what’s our tradition.”

Although she was murmuring, she still went inside with Lucas.

It was a serious thing to pick a gift and both of them went to the present zone.

Lucas didn’t know what to choose after checking around for a long time.

Neither did Katherine. In her perception, those gifts were not practice and were simply a waste of time.

Lucas looked at Katherine and said, “Do you have any suggestion?”

Katherine shrugged her shoulder and answered, “No.”

She was telling the truth because she found nothing in this zone was suitable.

She looked at Lucas and said, “I think younger Mr. Grant doesn’t need anything.”

Lucas thought for a while. It seemed people grew up in his family were not lack of anything.

When they wanted something, they would simply buy it.

Katherine suddenly laughed and said, “Well, you’re only a little younger than Marshall, right? Uncle and aunt will be delighted if you have a girlfriend and bring her along.”

After saying this, she laughed more widely.

Lucas looked at her and also laughed, “I can’t find a girlfriend in a week.”

Katherine was a little surprised and asked, “Why? You’re a perfect man. I suppose you can find a girlfriend if you want.”

Lucas didn’t say anything.

Katherine continued, “However, most family like yours focus on socioeconomic position. It’s really hard for you to find a girlfriend who meets all of their needs.”

She then turned to look at Lucas and asked, “Hasn’t anyone introduce some girls to you before?”

Lucas looked up to the goods shelf and replied after a long time, “Kind of.”

Katherine smiled, “What do you mean by ‘kind of’? This is a yes or no question.”

Lucas thought for a while and said, “Someone has introduced a girl to be, but I haven’t met her because my parents don’t agree.”

Katherine nodded and said, “Well, but if she’s not matched with your socioeconomic position, how could he introduce her to you?”

Family like his really focused on the partner’s background.

Lucas looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Katherine, saying, “I don’t know. Maybe it’s their friends’ daughter. Anyway, my parents refused at that time.”
