Chapter 413 She Doesn’t Like You Either

Katherine was taken aback by Hector’s words, and she frowned unconsciously.

Hector said again, “You wait until my game is over. Then we talk about it slowly, okay?”

After a few seconds, Katherine laughed and said in a deliberately relaxed tone, “What do you want to say? You can say it now.”

Hector said with a sigh, “Kathy, you really don’t understand, or you’ve been avoiding it?”

As soon as Hector finished these words, Marshall who was in the kitchen called Katherine. He didn’t know where some of the seasonings were.

Marshall’s voice was a little louder, and Hector probably heard it too.

Katherine took the opportunity to say, “Well, I have something to do now. Let’s talk about it later. You work hard and try to get a good place.”

After Katherine finished speaking, she responded to the kitchen, and then hung up the phone.

Before Katherine reached the kitchen, Marshall had found them all.

He didn’t look at Katherine and asked while frying the vegetables, “Who were you talking to just now? Hector?”

He even knew this.

Katherine leaned against the door frame, “So you asked me to come over on purpose. It wasn’t because you couldn’t find seasonings?”

Marshall laughed, “Of course not, I really didn’t find them.”

Katherine scanned the worktop. All the seasonings were on it, so what he was looking for!

Katherine didn’t bother to ask, and after a while, she went to the dining room and waited.

Marshall removed the food from the pot and headed to the dining room, but he stopped as soon as he reached the door of the kitchen.

He looked outside and said with a flat voice, “Why are you here?”

Katherine heard it and hurried out of the dining room.

A person stood at the door of the living room, looking a little uncomfortable.

Katherine laughed, “Didn’t you go to my shop today? How did you end up here?”

Frances tried to control her facial expressions, “I’m looking for my son. If my son isn’t here, I won’t come over.”

Katherine curled her mouth and turned to look at Marshall.

Marshall asked, “Have you eaten yet?” Then he went into the dining room with his dish.

Frances raised her feet and came in, “I haven’t eaten yet. I was going to take you out to dinner.”

Seeing Marshall wearing an apron, Frances seemed to feel a little distressed, “Why are you cooking? You are unfit for it.”

Katherine didn’t care too much. She waited for Marshall to serve her a bowl of rice and then bowed her head to focus on eating.

Marshall also took the bowls and chopsticks for Frances, “You’re just in time. Let’s have dinner together. I cooked these dishes today. You can have a try.”

Frances strained her neck but did not refuse. She glanced at the food and said, “Since they’re all cooked by you, then I’ll have a try. I’m eating the food cooked by my son. I don’t profit at someone’s expense.”

Katherine couldn’t help but laugh, “Sit down and eat. You don’t have to explain that!”

Frances sat down, right across from Katherine.

Marshall was by Katherine’s side and put food in Katherine’s rice bowl, “You didn’t eat much before. Now you shall have more.”

Marshall’s craftsmanship was not good, but it was not particularly bad.

They could still eat if they were not picky on food.

After eating two bites of rice, Frances looked up at Katherine and Marshall, vaguely feeling as if she had gone back to the past.

In the past, they sat down to eat together, just like now.

She thought for a while and said to Marshall, “I heard that Cora has been discharged from the hospital.”

Cora was the woman that Khalid took care of some time ago.

Marshall said, “But she was injured in several places in the car accident. Even if she is discharged from the hospital, she still needs to recuperate for some time.”

Frances pursed her lips, “Then your dad must go and take care of her. Your dad is a good man.”

Marshall smiled and said, “Well, I don’t know about that, but Aunt Willis has found a babysitter. She doesn’t need my dad’s help.”

Frances pulled a long face and continued to eat.

After eating, Marshall went to wash the dishes, and Katherine went to sit on the sofa again.

Frances didn’t intend to leave. She wandered around in the living room and looked at Katherine, “This house was given to you by my son. Is it comfortable to live in?”

Frances was really not good at talking, but Katherine didn’t have the mood to argue with her now.

She said, “Yeah, it is comfortable.”

Frances snorted, “Everyone says that Marshall is unfair to you. But you haven’t suffered losses. After a divorce, you have gotten a large sum of money that others can’t earn for their lifetime.”

Katherine said again, “Yeas, then why didn’t you want to divorce? I heard that Marshall’s dad is willing to compensate you. You won’t suffer losses.”

Katherine’s tone was very flat. She wasn’t trying to be mocking, just narrating a fact.

Frances choked and glowered at her, “You...”

She thought it over and suppressed her emotions again, “What do you know? Can I be the same as you?”

Katherine nodded, “Yeah, you are too old to find another husband in the future.”

Frances took a deep breath and then shut up.

She would never take an advantageous position when she met Katherine.

Katherine was still watching the cartoon. She didn’t know it would be fun to watch a cartoon.

Frances had a wander around and then sat down next to Katherine. She stared at the television screen and said, “I can’t believe someone is watching this retarded show.”

Although she said that, she still watched it together with Katherine for a long time.

After a while, Katherine asked, “Well, have you been in touch with Marshall’s dad recently?”

She was purely curious, so she asked.

Frances stared at the television screen and said, “No, we haven’t seen each other or talked on the phone.”

Katherine said with a sneer, “At this time, you still care about your pride.”

Frances hissed. She obviously didn’t like to hear this, but after thinking about it, she didn’t refute it!

Katherine let out a sigh of relief, “You should learn from your son.”

Frances paused and reflexively turned her head to glance in the kitchen’s direction. Marshall was clearing the stove. He seemed to be doing fine.

Marshall never did such a thing before.

Frances looked at him for a while and knew what Katherine meant. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

But she could not be like Marshall. For years she tended to adopt a condescending manner in front of Khalid.

Some time ago, even if she tried to find a way to meet Khalid and revealed that she wanted to get back together, she still adopted a condescending manner.

Katherine didn’t care about what Frances thought, so she didn’t say a word. Anyway, she had already reminded Frances.

After Marshall finished work, he washed the fruit and brought it over.

Frances felt very distressed for his son. He had never done this kind of work at home before.

Frances quickly let Marshall sit down and rest.

Marshall smiled, “It’s all right. I sit in the office every day, and now I can do some exercise. I feel good.”

Frances said, “Ouch! Your hands are for flicking over papers, signing, and making money. How could you do such rough work?”

Katherine glanced furtively at Frances and held in her laughter.

Although Frances didn’t like Katherine, she still stayed at Katherine’s home until the evening and left with Marshall.

Katherine sent two people out. She didn’t care too much. Frances’ performance today was much better than before, so she also told Frances to be careful on the road.

Frances’ facial expression was very complicated, and she still strained her neck, “You hurry to go in. This is my son’s house. I don’t need you to send me out.”

Katherine obediently turned around and entered the house.

Frances sat in the car, watching Katherine close the door, and then said, “I can’t understand why you like such a woman. She doesn’t even smile at the elder.”

Marshall smiled helplessly, “You two fought together before. Can she smile at you?”

Frances snorted and turned her gaze, “I just don’t like her.”

Marshall said, “Well, she doesn’t like you either.”
