CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 443 Time for Interrogation

Though Katherine fixed her eyes on somewhere else, she still answered, “I am fine. Thanks to Kyle, that guy didn’t even touch me.”

Marshall walked over to sit beside her. He held her hands and gently stroked them.

Then he asked Kyle with his face back on him, “You have caught that guy, right?”

Kyle nodded and glanced at their hands clinging to each other.

“I have locked him down. But I am not an expert of interrogation. You know he may end up being dead or disabled if you leave it to me. So I am afraid you have to handle it on your own.”

Marshall nodded, “Alright, I will come to your club to see that guy later.”

Darcie then started to cook when seeing them home. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Katherine felt like retching when smelling the cooking odors.

She stood up, “I wanna go back to my room.”

Frances could tell that she might be feeling sick. So she hurried to say, “Yeah, a rest is necessary after hours of shopping.”

Katherine only responded with silence. She walked slowly upstairs. Then she got herself changed and lay on the bed.

Soon, she was overwhelmed with sleepiness. But she still tried to stay awake to think about any possibility that Clara would conspire against her. While in the midst of reminiscence, slumber still defeat her soberness.

So Katherine had no idea about the conversation in the parlor.

While sleeping, she felt like being hugged. Then there came a voice, “Naughty girl…”

But Katherine didn’t catch it clearly. She closed her eyes to continue to sleep.

Marshall, lying on her side, smiled and gently patted on her shoulder as she returned to sound sleep.

After a while, Frances showed up.

But she didn’t enter. She just stood at the door and said, “I told you to bring her downstairs for dinner. What are you doing?”

Marshall smiled, “Wait…She is in deep sleep. I will bring her for dinner later.”

Frances looked a bit impatient, “Come on, just wake her up before the dishes cool down. Let her sleep after dinner.”

Marshall compromised with a smile, “Okay.”

Frances then left after standing for a while.

Marshall touched Katherine’s face to whisper, “Kathy, time for dinner.”

But she remained still.

With his eyes fixing on her, Marshall approached to kiss her.

It seemed to work much better than whispering. Just within a few seconds, Katherine opened her eyes and started to struggle roughly.

Marshall loosened his hug on her and smiled, “Okay, time to get up for dinner.”

Katherine frowned, “Marshall, watch your manner.”

Marshall didn’t seem to care. He pulled her up. Then he went into the bathroom to get a towel to wash her face.

Katherine just stayed still. As it was getting dark outside, the room was dim with lights off. She stared at him quietly. His soft move and expression made him much more appealing to her when compared with his coldness in the old days.

She couldn’t help wondering if he actually showed no feelings for her at that time.

At the thought of that, she seemed to be a bit upset and remained unspoken.

She got off the bed slowly when Marshall entered the bathroom to put away the towel.

As Marshall came out, he reached out his hand to hold hers. Then they got downstairs together. But Katherine didn’t struggle this time.

Marshall couldn’t help smiling.

Both Kyle and Frances were waiting while Frances was asking him about his family.

Actually, Kyle only knew little about his own family. Nor did he have any knowledge about his family business. And even the situation of those family members living in the Haverford Residence was none of his knowing.

After all, he hardly lived there. So he had nothing valuable to tell her.

While Marshall and Katherine were still walking down the stairs, he said, “The show arranged by Rosalie has achieved great success. I am sure we could make a lot of profit.”

Of course, it referred to the show for Hector.

Kyle exclaimed, “Yeah! No wonder Rosalie looks so happy these days. I bet his husband might also benefit a lot from it.”

But Katherine was now fully captured by those dishes on the table.

Undoubtedly, Darcie was an excellent cook. All those dishes looked perfect and smelt nice.

Katherine hurried to sit down with tableware placed in her front.

Marshall then continued, “The show may probably boom the popularity of a horde of singers.”

Kyle then naturally brought up a topic about Hector, “Yeah, I remember Rosalie told me that there have been entertainment agencies coming for him. If it weren’t for the fact that Rosalie offered no contract, she would have kept a promising team of superstars.”

Kyle smiled, “I told her to get a reliable agency for Hector.”

Marshall nodded, “But it’s indeed a pity that Rosalie didn’t intend to sign any singer.”

Kyle also nodded, “Actually, Rosalie could offer a much more promising future for Hector if she offered any chance. But I suppose it was those troublesome trifles during the process that stopped her from offering any contract even though it is indeed quite profitable.”

Marshall nodded, “It makes sense.”

After that, he took a look at Katherine, who was still enjoying the food and simply ignored their conversation.

Marshall let out a sigh of relief.

Soon, Katherine finished the meal as she didn’t get involved in any conversation.

She put down the tableware, “I finish.”

Then she left the dining room.

Frances replied in a pleased voice, “Kathy seems to always have good appetite. That should be a good thing for the baby.”

Kyle paused out of surprise. He stared at her, “The baby?”

Frances looked a bit confused when seeing that. She turned to look at Marshall, “Kyle hasn’t known about it yet?”

Marshall smiled, “I have told him that day. But perhaps he didn’t notice because of drunkenness.”

Kyle frowned, still looking confused.

But actually Marshall did announce the news that day during the meal. He said he was excited because Katherine got pregnant. And he was going to be a father.

But it was at the end of the meal when most of them got drunk.

So Kyle had probably missed it.

Not until a long pause later did Kyle utter again, “You mean Katherine is pregnant?”

Frances nodded with her lips pressed, “Yeah, she is going to be a mother and Marshall a father.”

Kyle just simply blinked, looking doubtful about what he just heard, “Really? She got pregnant?”

He couldn’t believe that a girlish one like her was actually about to be a mother.

He couldn’t help wondering if she could handle what was expecting her later.

She was still too childish to be a mother. But she soon had to give birth to her own baby.

Finally, the surprised look faded away from Kyle’s face.

‘Hector, I bet you have never expected such a shocking change to occur during your long departure.’

He wondered how Hector would react when hearing that.

Katherine walked into the parlor and sat on the couch. She fixed her eyes on the TV, looking absentminded.

She was tired and still fancied sleeping. She felt herself being lazy.

After sitting for a while, she lay on the couch and still stared at TV. But a minute later, she fell asleep.

When Marshall and Kyle walked out of the dining room, Katherine had been in sound sleep.

Marshall walked over to watch her beside the couch.

Frances hurried over, “Uhhh, she would catch a cold if she stayed here for a sleep. Get her back to the bedroom.”

Marshall bent over to gently hold her up.

Katherine reached out her arms to wrap around his neck out of instinct, murmuring, “So annoying…”

Marshall couldn’t help smiling.

Marshall took a look at Kyle, “Give me a second. I need to tuck her in first.”

While walking upstairs, Marshall kissed on her lovingly.

Though she was sleeping, she still felt it.

“Behave yourself…” she murmured again.

Marshall smiled, “Now I learn to behave myself because of you.”
