CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

When Khalid arrived at Kyle's Club, they had already served all the dishes.

Khalid saw Frances as soon as he walked into the room.

Frances was standing by the window, talking to the phone.

Everyone else in the room was silent.

Frances was facing the window, not knowing that Khalid had entered.

Khalid paused at the door and heard Frances say, "I'm a little busy and probably won't have time tonight."

Then there was a pause, maybe because the man on the other side of the phone didn't say anything. Then Frances continued, "I'm not sure about that. We need more details to make the decision."

Judging from the way Frances spoke, she was pretty polite, or even a bit resistant to the one she was talking to.

Nicolas was the first to come to Khalid's mind. He walked up to France and asked without lowering down his voice, "What's happening? Who are you talking to? Come and have dinner."

Frances froze and looked back at Khalid.

Khalid was smiling innocently.

Frances wasn't angry. She looked at Khalid in surprise and said to the man on the other side of the phone, "I have to go to dinner now. See you."

The call was over.

Khalid didn't ask who was on the phone. He put his hand around Frances's shoulders, and they walked to the table.

Katherin's lips arched when seeing Khalid and Frances together.

This was the first time she saw the middle-aged couple being so intimate in public.

They looked so adorable.

Frances felt a bit shy. She sat down and took a sip of water.
