CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Marshall paused upon hearing Clara’s question.

He didn’t want to be too specific to Clara, after all, what happened last night was between him and Katherine.

Moreover, he would only talk dirty to Katherine or someone who he was really close to.

Clara’s identity was a bit sensitive, what’s more, she was his business partner, so he’s got to be serious.

“Nah, I’m just a bit tired, so I’m just going to drop by the store.”

Lips pursed, Clara didn’t say anything.

Clara stopped the car at the next crossroad and said in a while, “I can see that you are getting along well with Miss Jordan. Auntie Frances told me before that you were on bad terms. Well, she must have gotten mistaken.”

Marshall frowned when Clara brought up Frances, “Well, my mom got mistaken a lot, so you don’t have to take her words to heart.”

In a way, Marshall was trying to address the big fuss that Frances made in the hospital.

Sensing that Marshall was trying to change the subject about Katherine, Clara just stopped inquiring further.

She then drove to Katherine’s store and got off the car with Marshall.

There were just Peter and Margaret in the store.

Peter was in charge of collecting money and Margaret was wrapping up for customers.

“It looks like you are getting used to this.” Marshall said to Peter.

Peter looked up in shock and then shrugged his shoulders, “Well, I got the whole morning to practice. I was all thumbs at first.”

Margaret was surprised to see Clara standing behind Marshall, “This must be Miss Henderson.”

Clara then stepped forward and stood next to Marshall, “Yeah, I’m just stopping by.”

Peter Was taken aback, “Miss Henderson came here with our boss?”

Before Clara can even say anything, Marshall explained, “I didn’t manage to get a cab and bumped into Miss Henderson by accident, so she gave me a ride.”

Peter nodded and recalled that Katherine called him yesterday to pick up wasted Marshall, but he was really swamped at that time and didn’t go there.
