CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

When Marshall finally came, the dinner was almost over.

They were talking and laughing in the room.

Khalid was talking to Frances and Katherin to Kyle most of the time.

They seldom cross-talked, but they were all in a very good mood.

When Marshall pushed the door and came in, he seemed surprised to see some people in the room. He asked, "Dad? You're here, too?"

Katherin gave him a look and said, "Why ask? Of course he should be here!"

Frances wasn't as shy as she had been anymore. She asked Marshall where he had been and why he didn't come with Khalid.

Marshall replied as he came over and sat next to Katherin, "Something was wrong at the factory warehouse. I went by and checked. We arranged lots of people there, and I haven't checked for quite a while since last time. So I think I should go over and take a look."

Khalid knew about that, too. He knew they were from Katherin's hometown.

So he nodded and asked, "How are they doing there?"

Marshall leaned back in his chair. "They were doing fine."

Katherin knew Marshall was lying. That was not what he was out for.

Marshall didn't want to tell the truth, and Katherine knew there must be a reason.

Marshall sat and chatted for a while. Then he looked at Kyle, "What's got into you today? You look so happy."

Kyle was a little taken back. He stared at Marshall and said, "You all think I'm thrilled today? I feel like pretty much the same as usual."

"No... you look quite different," Marshall said straightforwardly, "Your mind state today differed a lot from days ago."

Katherin laughed and looked at Kyle. "Am I right?"

Kyle clicked his tongue, "Fine. Maybe I'm really in a good mood today, much better than how I was days ago. You're right."

He thought about it and realized that he had really felt a little more comfortable today than a few days ago.

Marshall turned over and asked again, "Did Miss Mitchell make up with you?"

Katherin burst out laughing.
