CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 317

Katherine and Lucas sat in the pavilion for a while, because it was a little windy, Lucas suggested to go to the second floor of the reception hall, where there was a lounge.

Katherine looked around, and Kyle hadn't returned, he was probably detained by Mr. Haverford.

She agreed.

The reception hall and the banquet hall were not far away. They would pass the banquet hall where the dance floor was if they wanted to go to the reception hall.

Katherine didn't deliberately want to look inside; she just glanced and saw at the dance floor.

There were not as many people on the dance floor as before, so she clearly saw Clara and Marshall.

They danced close to each other, not knowing what they said, they all seemed to be laughing.

Katherine also smiled, then withdrew her gaze, and left with Lucas.

There were small lounges on the second floor of the reception hall, some with beds in them, and some with sofas.

They went to the room with the sofa, and the waiter served them fruit and juice.

Katherine sat down, and leaned on the sofa, "Isn't the dinner over? Kyle is probably toasting."

Lucas nodded, "When I came out, they were enjoying themselves."

He took out the phone, there was a text.

He frowned and did not reply. He put the phone back.

Katherine smiled, "Is there something going on at the company? I guess you are tired, you couldn’t relax even in a party."

Lucas smiled, "Indeed."

Lucas said, “There are many media here today, which is really hard for me to enjoy.”

Katherine paused, she almost understood what Lucas had said was to remind her.

She pursed her lips, and echoed with Lucas.

She didn’t know what else to say.

Kyle hadn’t come back, and there was no phone call or anything.

Katherine and Lucas stayed in the lounge.

They didn’t feel like joining in the fun, they felt more at ease here.

Katherine and Lucas were actually not particularly familiar with each other. Only after Katherine divorced Marshall, they chatted more often.

Lucas was a nice person, and Katherine didn't feel uncomfortable.

They kept sitting like this until a voice came from the banquet hall.

Lucas looked at the time, "There should be a show over there, let's go and take a look."

Katherine was still thinking about the lottery, and she stood up, "Okay."

The banquet was over. Now everyone was in the banquet hall. There was a small stage with several monks on.

Respected Mrs. Walters was supported and walked onto the stage.

She was full of energy with a smile on her face.

There was a big wooden box next to her.

Katherine saw granny Grant. She was standing next to Respected Mrs. Walters, also full of smiles.

They were holding hands, it seemed that they were close.

Katherine stood behind the crowd and turned to Lucas, " granny Grant and Respected Mrs. Walters are good friends?"

"Yes." Lucas nodded, "They were friends since childhood, although they were not of the same age, they still have a close relationship."

Katherine was smiling when someone came over and asked, "Where were you before?"

It was Marshall.

Katherine was stunned, she turned to look at Marshall, and the smile on her face disappeared in an instant.

She ignored Marshall and turned back to look at the stage.

After making a speech, Mrs. Walters announced that she had invited a respected wizard from Wilkinson Island today. The box contained notes written with indication. The first prize winner could have the opportunity to pick one and the distinguished master should interpret the meaning of the picked-indication in the public. Katherine had never heard of the sorcerer but then she realized that he must be well-known enough for as Mrs. Walters mentioned him, all onlookers made a surprised voice.

The trigram was actually not that mysterious. There was a number on the invitation, and the award will be redeemed according to the number above.

Katherine had an invitation, which Kyle gave to her.

She looked through it, and there was indeed a set of numbers behind the invitation.

Katherine leaned over to Lucas, "Let me see yours."

Lucas showed his invitation to Katherine.

Marshall was standing next to Katherine, he glanced at Lucas and Katherine with a cold expression.

Clara came over, "Marshall, let me see your number."

Marshall didn't read his invitation at all, and he handed it to Clara directly.

All the numbers were made into small notes and placed in a large transparent glass ball.

granny Grant supported Respected Mrs. Walters, she reached in through a small hole, and took out three notes in turn.

The Walters presented the prizes.

The third prize was a calligraphy, which Katherine couldn’t appreciate.

The second prize was a crystal clear and dazzling colored glaze, which Katherine also couldn’t appreciate.

The first prize was a set of jewelry.

It was not diamonds, but a set of emeralds, and it was not that attractive.

Someone announced the third prize, and then someone in the crowd cheered and accepted the award.

Then came the second prize, with the same process.

Finally, the first prize.

Katherine used the invitation to fan herself, "I have no luck to reap without sowing."

Her only chance of making a fortune was for one year of marriage and humiliation with Marshall.

Lucas smiled, "You can't force luck, let’s just watch the excitement."

Respected Mrs. Walters took a note and looked at it, "The twenty-fifth, the winner of the first prize is the twenty-fifth."

Katherine's movement slowly stopped, and she turned to look at Lucas, "What’s my number?"

Lucas couldn't help but laughed out, "What did I say? Katherine, it's you."

Katherine had never won such a big prize, so she was stunned.

She looked at the first prize on the stage, thinking that even it was given to her, she won’t wear it.

It was not attractive to her.

Lucas pushed Katherine a bit, and Katherine hurried over, "It's me, it's me."

granny Grant was happy when she saw it was Katherine.

Katherine gave the invitation to the staff for inspection.

granny Grant laughed and took Katherine's hand, "You are so lucky."

Katherine smiled, "I was so surprised."

The first prize was introduced. It was a set of jewelry of a certain concubine in the palace in the early years. It was said to be invaluable.

The jewelry was treasured by Respected Mrs. Walters for many years. She wanted to pass it on to future generations, but she wanted it to be a good sign on her birthday.

So, it was sent as a prize.

Katherine smiled, and then she repeated what the first two award recipients had said.

But after Katherine received the award, the staff didn't let her go immediately.

Respected Mrs. Walters took Katherine's hand, "Come here."

She led Katherine to the big box.

Inside the box were divinatory trigrams, and there was a small hole to put your hand in.

Several apprentices were standing nearby, chanting in low voices.

Respected Mrs. Walters took Katherine's hand and said, "Don't pick, just take one, you know?"

Katherine looked at Respected Mrs. Walters closely, even if Respected Mrs. Walters's eyes were milky, she was full of hope.

Katherine looked at the box, and the monk next to her said, "Miss, it's time to draw your lots."

Katherine reached in with her hand.
