CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 509 Wine of Distraught Mind

When Marshall and Katherine arrived at the Grant Residence, Khalid still stayed awake while sitting on the couch and the TV was still on. But obviously, his mind had strayed away.

Marshall was the first to enter the parlor. He was a bit surprised when seeing Khalid, “Dad, why don’t you go to bed?”

Not until quite a while later did he turn to look at Marshall, “Well, I am not sleepy at all.”

Then Katherine followed in. She was rendered amused when noticing the time.

No matter how hard Khalid pretended to remain composed, the sense of frustration and unhappiness were both shown on his face.

“But it’s late. Time to sleep.” Said Marshall.

After that, he led Katherine upstairs.

While walking on the stairs, Katherine looked back at Khalid, who looked a bit agitated with his legs crossed.

Following Marshall, she then went back to the bedroom with a smile.

As the door was closed, Katherine burst into laughter, “Did you see his face? So hilarious! I beg he must be caring about what happened during the lunch time today. It actually works!”

Marshall took off his jacket and nodded, looking a bit distracted.

Katherine went to get the pajamas and headed to the bathroom, “Oh, by the way, what’s wrong with your car?”

Marshall paused for a second, “There is something wrong with the gear.”

He simply fudged it in case Katherine felt bothered if she knew the truth.

What was more, as revengeful as she had been, she would definitely plan for retaliation.

Commonly speaking, keeping her outside the darkness would always be his priority, let alone during her pregnancy.

Katherine answered with a simple yes and showed no doubt. Then she went to take a shower.

After some consideration, he walked out of the room and made a call outside the corridor.
