CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 516 She Felt Embarrassed

Hector’s facial expression didn’t change at all when Katherine filled him in on what had happened to the Bennett family. In the past, the news would have made him happy for a while, but now, it was nothing but some idle gossip to him. In Hector’s opinion, it was a stupid thing to do to put attention to someone he didn’t like at all. He couldn’t care less now. Since he had cut all ties with the Bennett family, what had happened to them was none of his business.

Lolling back in the sofa, Hector simply sighed, "I’m afraid the future of the Bennett family depends on David."

Now it appeared that David was the only one to take charge. Kevin had always said before that Alexis and Patrick would be running the family business after they graduated from college, but now it seemed that this couldn’t be happening.

However, Katherine had hardly heard anything about David. He kept to himself and was sometimes mentioned in financial news, but there wasn’t even a picture of him shown on TV.

Katherine remembered she had read an interview of David before. Methodical in speech, he said nothing but answered the journalist’s questions. Thus, he was a shrewd and sophisticated man in Katherine’s eyes. If David really took over the family business in the future, Bennett & Co., Ltd. wouldn’t fail.

But Katherine was a little curious. "I wonder what will happen to Ariel, Alexis and Patrick when David takes over your family business."

Hector started to ponder. Before long, he smirked despite himself. "I don’t think they’ll have a hard life, but it won’t be easy either."

Just at this moment, Katherine’s phone rang. She took a look at the caller ID and found it was Frances. She answered the call and Frances asked her where she was. Katherine glanced at Hector and said she was at Kyle’s club.

In fact, Katherine secretly hoped that Frances would come because it was a little embarrassing between Hector and her now. If Frances joined them, the mood would be lightened.

At this point, the waiter came with Hector’s noodles. Frances seemed to hear the waiter’s voice and chuckled, "I’ll be right there."

Katherine hung up, put away her phone and looked at Hector, explaining, "It’s Marshall’s mother. She’s been kind to me lately. The relationship between us is no longer tense."

Somehow, Hector seemed to think of something and sighed, "So many things have happened during my absence."

Katherine didn’t want to dwell on what Hector said but nodded.
