CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 236

Kyle was excited during lunch. When the food was served, he asked everyone to take photos and post them online in the same way.

This was what would happen when one had absolutely nothing to do in life.

Usually, Hector would play along with Kyle, as long as he didn’t go too far.

As for Katherine, since she took the tea set from Kyle, she could only do as he said.

The three people took pictures of the food from respective angles and posted them online with the same caption.

Delighted, Kyle put down his phone. "It’s such a pleasure to share my life with my good friends."

Katherine and Hector exchanged a short glance.

Although Kyle could do whatever he wanted on his own turf, in fact, his spiritual life was empty.

He didn’t even have a friend, which made people wonder how he had lived his life before.

Hector smiled and kept his voice low. "Just do as he says. It’s easy to make him happy."

Katherine raised her eyebrows. It sure was easy to make Kyle happy, but what he wanted was a childish thing to do.

When Katherine, Hector and Kyle were having lunch, the takeaway was also sent to Marshall’s office.

Since Peter was busy with the renovation of Katherine’s store, Marshall had to eat alone and thus missed the lunchtime.

Khalid got back from lunch, walked by Marshall’s office, saw him start eating, and came in.

Khalid stopped at Marshall’s bureau. "It must be a hectic morning, isn’t it?"

Marshall replied, "Yes. Much preparation work needs to be done for the cooperation."

Khalid drew up a chair and sat down. "Since the Henderson family asks you to do the communication work between the two companies, does Katherine have any complaints against it?"

Stunned, Marshall had no idea what Khalid was referring to. "No, what complaints can she have?"

Khalid heaved a sigh, not knowing how to put it. "After all, what happened between you and Clara isn’t over yet. Besides, your mother prefers Clara. Now we’re cooperating with the Henderson family, and thus you two meet more often, so I’m afraid that Katherine will have complaints."

Marshall smiled. "She won’t. Katherine is actually quite sensible."

In Marshall’s view, Katherine wouldn’t argue with him over Clara, because she expected less from the marriage than he imagined.

Otherwise, Katherine wouldn’t have agreed in no time once he asked her for a divorce.

Marshall asked Katherine to put on a show with him, while she did that for the reward.

Katherine wasn’t so unreasonable as the Grant family expected.

Khalid said after some consideration, "I heard that WF Group is heavily fined for tax evasion, and that hits them hard and leaves them a bad rap. I don’t think they’re able to stir up any trouble again in the future. So how are you going to solve the problem between you and Katherine?"

Marshall knew what Khalid meant. Since WF Group was no longer a threat, he had to figure out how to make their divorce trickle out in dribs and drabs.

They couldn’t pretended to be a couple for the rest of their lives.

In fact, Marshall had thought about this issue before and replied, "It’s not time yet. WF Group was just fined for tax evasion. If Katherine and I announced our divorce now, people would associate it with WF Group, so I’ll do it after some time."

Khalid explained, "I don’t mean to ask you to announce it now. I’m just telling you that you need to think it through before you make a move. You’re a man, so you might not mind it, but Katherine is a girl, and her youth is short and precious. You can’t waste her time. She has her own life. If your grandpa was still alive, he must…"

As he said that, Khalid found it hard to continue.

If Old Mr. Grant was still alive, things wouldn’t have gone this far.

Marshall gave a slight frown, not wanting to talk about this subject anymore. "Alright, I know what to do. Don’t worry. I’ll put myself in Katherine’s shoes. After all, I promised grandpa that I would take care of her as much as I could."

Khalid nodded slowly. "That’s great."

He got up and said, "I’ll leave you to your lunch."

Marshall grunted, watching Khalid leave his office.

He breathed a sigh, staring at the food on the bureau.

It was true that WF Group could no longer stir up trouble, but Dolly hadn’t given up yet.
