CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Katherine was not very surprised to hear Marshall's words. She just smiled.

Marshall stared at Katherine, a bit surprised, "You know that?"

Katherine sighed, looking at the road ahead, "I heard about that after we divorced."

Nobody told her the truth. Katherine came to know it by accident. Once she was sitting in the garden, when the chance conversation between Lucas and Lydia made Katherine prick up her ears.

Lucas and Lydia were too focused to notice her. They opened up and talked a great deal.

Initially Katherine was shocked indeed when she found that her fiancé was Lucas, actually.

Her hand in marriage was given to Marshall straight away since Lucas did not have a crush on her.

At that time, Katherine almost deduced the reasons of why Marshall disliked her.

Meanwhile she understood him a little bit more.

Marshall compressed his lips. He read an indifferent expression on Katherine's face, whereupon he spoke up.

"Originally, Old Mr. Grant intended to let Lucas be your groom. At that time I had an engagement and our other brothers were living abroad. Lucas was an ideal choice on this occasion," Lucas said.

"Well," Katherine replied, "But Lucas rejected."

Marshall thought for a while before he spoke, "No, Lucas did not reject. It was rejected by his parents."

Katherine nodded, "But it's all the same for me."

Marshall sighed, "Lucas is a very amenable child. He rejected directly when he heard his parents rejected the idea. There was no alternative, so they arranged you for me."

Katherine chuckled with a complicated mindset, "Poor Marshall, your engagement was ruined by me," she said.

Marshall held over Katherine's hands in his palms, "To be frank, my unwillingness was owing to the rivalry between Lucas and me. It was not because I was reluctant to cancel the engagement to Clara. Anyway, Katherine, can't you feel my love for you now?"

Katherine glanced up at Marshall. She forced but unable to form a smile. "You should live happily if you married with Clara. Clara is a sensible girl who will complaisant to your will. You will become emotionally involved with her."
