CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Frances didn't talk to Frances for long. Having been rejected, she added a few pleasantries and then hung up.

Frances put down the phone and smiled slowly.

Her disappointment in Clara was based on the speculation that Clara was using her.

The phone call just now only made her more disappointed.

Clara wouldn't have made the phone call if she hadn't seen Frances be with Marshall and Katherine today.

It was all because she found she could use Frances again.

That girl could be pretty calculating.

Frances put down the phone and then lay down. She stared at the ceiling with a smile. Later she fell asleep.

Marshall didn't come back until quite a while later.

Katherine was in a sound sleep when somebody felt being held in somebody's arms. Then a strong smell of alcohol hit her nose.

She felt a bit uncomfortable, so she pushed him.

Marshall was drunk. He called Katherine by her name and said, "I'm thrilled."

Katherine squinted his eyes and looked at Marshall. His face was red. She said, "I don't understand."

Marshall closed his eyes and asked, "About what?"

Katherine's voice became even lower. "About how I got pregnant."

She couldn't help thinking about the issue when she was idle in the past two days.

Her period was always regular. She thought she should be safe based on the calendar-based methods. The methods weren't 100% accurate, but Katherine thought it was doubtful that she could be one of the rare "lucky" ones.

She couldn't believe he hit the target within one shot.

She couldn't get over it. So she thought about it again and again, but she failed to figure anything out.

Marshall paused for a while and said, "What do you think? I tried, and we succeed."

Katherine turned over and took the Marshall's hand off her. She then said, "No, I was under meds, and the only time I was out of meds was during the rhythm."

She might have thought about this question too much these days, and thus she couldn't help recalling those intimate moments they had.

She might have mixed it with other times.

However, in the depth of her memory, she felt something else indeed had happened.

She just couldn't make it out.
