CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 250

Lucas figured out what Marshall wanted to ask was: Have you ever regretted?

Did he regret it? Well, he couldn’t tell.

At first, when old Mr. Grant wanted Katherine to be their family member, he wanted her to marry Lucas.

After all, Marshall had an engagement and Lucas seemed to be the best choice.

However, younger Mr. Grant and his wife didn’t agree with their arrangement.

There were lots of reasons for their rejection and Katherine’s background seemed to be the main reason.

Lucas hadn’t seen Katherine at that time and only knew her name from old Mr. Grant.

All he knew was that she was a country girl who had no parents and grew up with her grandfather.

She was not well-educated, and naturally, her temperament couldn’t compare with those ladies.

Maybe her only advantage was her beauty because old Mr. Grant had stressed several times that she was a good-looking girl. However, girls couldn’t survive on their appearance.

Younger Mrs. Grant had discussed with him that if he really married such a girl, it was hard for him to voice in the Grant family.

With Marshall had the Henderson family to support him, it was not a good deal for him to marry Katherine, who didn’t have fortune nor fame.

If old Mr. Grant was in a good health, Lucas would rely on him because of his guilty towards himself.

However, at that time, old Mr. Grant was in bed and the doctor also said he could possibly pass away in a few months.

Hence, younger Mrs. Grant didn’t want Katherine to be her daughter-in-law.

Lucas was always a person who respected his parents’ opinion. After having discussed with his mother, he went to find his grandfather and told him he was unwilling to marry Katherine.

He didn’t even make too much explanation and all he said was that he didn’t want to.

Maybe old Mr. Grant was disappointed at that time, but he didn’t blame him. He simply smiled and said that he understood how Lucas felt.

Afterwards, Lucas didn’t know what was going on with his brother and he only knew that Marshall broke off the engagement after a few days.

A few days later, the Grant family was starting to prepare Marshall and Katherine’s wedding.

It was a really a great ceremony with many families invited, no matter whether they had business exchanges with the Grant family or not.

Lucas met Katherine for the first time on her wedding day.

She was indeed a very pretty girl.

However, it was not enough for him to regret because he had seen many beauties.

Right now, with Marshall’s hinting question about whether he regretted or not, Lucas was hesitated for a while.

Katherine was standing beside younger Mr. Grant and her eyes laid on the birthday cake. Her smiling face was so attractive.

Lucas hurriedly looked at somewhere else and started at the dish in front of him.

Younger Mr. Grant cut the birthday cake, put it in a plate and handed it to Katherine, while she turned around and gave it to old Mrs. Grant, “Here it is, grandma.”

Old Mrs. Grant smiled and replied, “Oh, that’s very kind of you, Kathy.”

Katherine really behaved properly today, which made all of her uncles and aunts look at her happily.

Katherine handed the second birthday cake to Clara and her explanation was that the guests should be served first.

Katherine showed an innocent smile and handed the plate on Clara’s hands, saying, “You can come to visit my mom if you have spare time. She really likes you.”

What she said was like a clap that hit on both Mrs. Grant and Clara.

Marshall even wanted to applaud for her perfect acting skill.

If he didn’t know Katherine was good at flattering others, he almost believe that Katherine didn’t know what was the relation between him and Clara.

Clara showed an unnatural smile and thanked her.
