Marshall paused and turned to Khalid who obviously looked awkward.

He coughed a bit and added, “Your grandma said that your mom won’t live here anymore.”

Katherine was also gazing at Khalid and was shocked that he was wearing a quite shy face at his age.

Before Marshall can say anything, Katherine answered, “Right, she won’t live here. The

Masons said that it is quite awkward for her to live here and was afraid that she might influence your future life and just called her back.”

Khalid was a bit surprised and slowly nodded in a while, “Right, I see.”

Katherine was a bit tired and just turned to Marshall, “You can stay here and chat with elder Mr. Grant. I want to have a rest.”

Marshall was still afraid that Katherine might feel uncomfortable and said that he will escort Katherine upstairs and then talk with Khalid.

Katherine glanced at Khalid before entering the room and he seemed a bit edgy.

Though Katherine wasn’t in a good mood, he felt laughing.

Marshall tucked Katherine in and then went out.

After pondering for a while, Katherine took the phone out and then texted Frances.

Frances texted back after a long time and said that she was in a quite embarrassing situation.

Katherine was pretty confused and just called Frances.

The phone got through pretty fast and was answered in a suppressed voice, “Katherine? It’s pretty late. What’s wrong?”

Katherine had a hunch that Frances was with someone and asked, “Where are you? What are you doing? I’m bored and wanted to check on you.”
