CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

As soon as Marshall and Khalid walked into the house, they looked carefully around the living room.

Old Mrs. Grant said, "Don’t bother looking. They’re sleeping in the room."

Marshall went upstairs. "I’ll go check on them."

Just as Khalid was about to follow him up the stairs, Old Mrs. Grant stopped him. "Come here. Let’s have a chat."

Khalid paused, thought for a moment and came over to her. He sat down across from Old Mrs. Grant and asked, "What’s wrong, mom?"

Old Mrs. Grant took a sip of tea and said, "Cora came today. Did you know that?"

Apparently shocked, Khalid knit his brows. "She came? I didn’t know that. What did she come here for?"

Old Mrs. Grant pouted her lips in one direction. "Those are her gifts. She said she came to see me." After that, she gave a cold smile. "I’m just an old woman, and there’s nothing to see me about."

Khalid followed her gaze and saw some health care products, his frown deepening. "I didn’t know she would come. Did she… Did they…"

Old Mrs. Grant explained, "I went to take a nap later, so I don’t know what they had talked about. In case you’re wondering, you can ask Frances, or Cora."

Khalid heaved a sigh and muttered to himself, "What did she come here for?"

Old Mrs. Grant replied in a soft voice, "You should ask yourself that question. Did you promise her anything?"

Promise? Khalid begged to differ. He made it explicit to Cora.

Mrs. Grant paused for a moment and said, "It’s not that you’re still a young man, and I know you won’t listen to me, but, you can’t be so indecisive about your relationship! It’s not

way, Khalid was a sentimental man. After all, he had gone through all these years with Frances, and he wouldn’t have put up with her for so long if he was a stone-hearted man. Later, when most of his love for her had withered up, he chose to break up with her because he thought it was good for everybody, but just from then on, she had become a better woman. Somehow, when Khalid saw Frances again after their break-up, he always had mixed emotions and his heart pounded hard. However,
