Chapter 436 All of Them Prefer Kathy

As Frances stood up and went out, Khalid also stood up.

Old Mrs. Grant looked at Khalid and then said, "Go ahead."

Khalid turned around slowly and went out.

Katherine went over and sat opposite Old Mrs. Grant, "It's so late. I’m sorry to bother you to come here."

Old Mrs. Grant smiled kindly and said, "I’m coming to see you. I just heard that you are pregnant. Are you all right? Do you suffer badly now?"

Katherine thought for a moment and replied, "It’s OK."

Old Mrs. Grant had grown quite fond of Katherine and said with a smile, "You have just been pregnant for over a month. It’s always hard for pregnant women in the first trimester. After that, your baby will not disturb you so much then you will feel comfortable with good appetite and sleep."

Katherine felt a little embarrassed and just said “yes”.

Mrs. Grant heaved a sigh of relief, "I really did not expect it. I've been looking forward to the baby for so long, and he comes just when I nearly become hopeless."

On hearing that, Katherine blamed Marshall in her mind. She thought, ‘He’s such a jerk. Why could he do such shameless things?

If he had not deliberately concealed it, she would not have been pregnant at all.

Marshall came down from upstairs, came over, and sat beside Katherine.

In face of Old Mrs. Grant, Katherine could not lose her temper directly, so she just restrained her rage and remained there.

Old Mrs. Grant looked at Marshall and said to Katherine softly, "Kathy, you are pregnant now, so I think you should remarry for the sake of the baby. And then if you want another wedding, we’ll listen to you."

Katherine curled her lips and thought that Marshall was so shameless. He went back to ask his grandmother to force her to marry him.

However, it did not work.

Katherine was silent for two seconds and said, "I don’t want to remarry. I don’t know what will happen between us in the future. But now, I won’t remarry him. I’ll give birth to my baby. It doesn’t matter. If you miss the baby, you can come and see him, but I won’t remarry at present."

Old Mrs. Grant froze, "Don’t you want to remarry even with pregnancy? If not, it’ll do harm to your baby if it cannot be born in a happy family. Kathy, just tell us what we can do to change your mind. I’ll enjoin Marshall to meet your requirements."

Katherine felt it’s so ironic.

She did not expect that one day, the Grant family would be so humble to meet all her requirements.

It was simply out of the question before.

Katherine took a deep breath. "Everything’s fine, but I’ll be happier if he would leave me alone."

Old Mrs. Grant took a look at Marshall with dissatisfaction. "Why is Katherine so disappointed with you? Look, she doesn’t want to be with you even with your baby. Reflect on yourself."Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Marshall also cooperated with her, "Okay, okay. I'll think about it. I'll correct myself. It's my fault. It won't happen again."

They echoed each other, but Katherine remained indifferent.

Old Mrs. Grant had no choice but to change the topic, "I’m quite surprised that Marshall’s mother is here. Have you made up with her?"

Katherine nodded. "She came to take care of me, and she’s very kind to me. We’ve talked and forgotten the conflicts before."

"I see." Old Mrs. Grant said, "I really did not expect it. I was shocked when I came in and saw her here."

Marshall smiled, "My mother has changed a lot recently. She has a good relationship with Katherine now, but she is more impatient to me."

Old Mrs. Grant nodded and turned to look outside.

There was something different in Frances's appearance, she looked much younger.

Old Mrs. Grant found her different from before obviously when they greeted each other.

She became supercilious and rather a little indifferent.

Frances had never had such an attitude.

And Old Mrs. Grand thought Frances avoided Khalid but she could not make sure.

At first, she thought Frances would pester Khalid because she wanted to remarry.

Outside, Frances and Khalid took a walk on the path not far from Katherine's home.

Khalid said he saw Frances a few days ago at the mall.

Frances smiled. "Well, I saw you that day, too."

Khalid nodded, "I was shopping."

“Uh-huh,” Frances just said so and became silent.

Suddenly she was so quiet, making Khalid a little embarrassed.

Frances calmed down, totally different from some time ago when she kept calling and pestering him.

Khalid said after a few seconds, "Why are you with Katherine these days? I was really surprised when I saw you just now."

“Er,” Frances said and realized that Marshall did not tell them.

She said tonelessly, "I live here now, and we can accompany each other."

Khalid sneered in his mind and said, "So, you two have a much better relationship."

Frances turned to look at Khalid. "Don't talk about me. Tell me about yourself. How is your work recently?"

Khalid nodded. "That's it. It's OK. Nothing different. I can't finish my work every day."

Frances thought about it for a while, but she could not help but ask, "How about Cora? Does she feel better?"

When Khalid was stunned, Frances smiled, "Don't think too much. I did not mean anything else. I just asked."

Khalid said after a while, "Well, she’s fine, but she must use crutches. She can handle the routine life."

“Good”, Frances said, and both of them were silent again.

Khalid turned his head to look at Frances several times and then said, "Cora has always lived a difficult life. She did not tell her family about this accident, so I just thought about helping her."

“Er,” Frances said and glanced at Khalid, "You should have your own considerations about this matter. You don't need to tell me about it. I used to care about it very much, but now the identity has been changed, so I don't care about it, and you don't need to tell me again."

Frances looked forward and said, "In fact, now if you ask me whether I had regretted doing such things for you two, I’ll say no. Khalid, you used to love me so much, and I was really spoiled in many respects, but in the case of Cora, I think my reaction is reasonable. It's you, and your family. You’ve never thought about me.

Then she shook her head. "Forget it. I shouldn’t mention it. It's all over. Never mind."

Khalid put his hands in his pockets and did not know how to reply to her.

It was useless to explain anything now. Both of them have already come this far. Any explanation is in vain.

Then they went for a walk outside and went back to their home.

Darcie had already prepared the dinner and asked them to go to the dining room.

Marshall helped Old Mrs. Grant to stand up. However, Old Mrs. Grant waved her hand to refuse Marshall and stretched out her hand at Katherine. "Katherine, come to help me, and I like to be with Katherine now."

Marshal laughed and realized that all of them now prefer Kathy than him.
