Chapter 464 Being Followed
Staring at Marshall, Lucas half-smiled, “Arranged marriage? It sure sounds easy. The reason you like this idea is that you met the right person for you. You would make the same decision as me if you are in my place facing all the uncertainties ahead.”
Lips pursed, Marshall answered, “Probably.”
It was very likely that he would directly reject.
Actually, he had enquired about Clara and the Hendersons when Frances first told him to marry Clara.
He really felt that they could be a great match and agreed. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
He was also pretty distressed when Old Mr. Grant introduced Katherine to him.
It can be easy to tell others what to do in a relationship, but it was totally different when one was in a relationship himself.
Lucas stood up and said while turning around, “What is going on with you and Katherine. You didn’t go back to the old mansion recently and I heard...”
He paused and continued his words in a moment, “I heard that you are getting back together.”
Marshall frowned a bit. Getting back together?
Well, not exactly. Katherine just gave him a chance to win her back and never said that she would get remarried with him, so she wasn’t exactly getting back together with him.
But after pondering for a while, Marshall said to Lucas’ back, “Yeah, we got back together.”
Lucas laughed and nodded, “Great. It’s a wonderful thing to be with someone you love.”
Then he left the office and closed the door.
Marshall didn’t know it was because of Lucas’ slamming or the wind, the door was closed heavily.
Marshall stared at the door for a long time and just chuckled.
Lucas went back to the office and probably communicated with the Hendersons directly because Marshall received Clara’s call in a while.
Marshall frowned when he saw the caller ID.
He used to regard Clara as a girl who can behave well and knew when to retreat, but now, she was increasingly getting on his nerves.
He had made clear his attitude, but why was she always pestering at him and acted like she was innocent.
Marshall waited for a minute and picked up the phone.
Clara immediately asked, “Marshall, I heard that Lucas just took over all of our business with your company. Is that right?”
Marshall nodded, “Yeah, Lucas probably has talked to you. I got a lot on my plate recently and really don’t have time. You placed a large quantity of orders and now that I have specifically assigned someone to communicate with you. This is the best decision for both of us.”
Clara’s voice lowered, “Marshall, are you doing this because of me?”
Eyebrows knitted, Marshall changed his tone, “This has nothing to do with you. we are just business partners and don’t have any philosophical differences. Why would I let you influence my work?”
Marshall sounded pretty harsh.
Clara instantly went silent.
Marshall didn’t want to argue with Clara on this matter and just added, “Miss Henderson, I still got work to do. If you have anything to ask about the business, you can just Peter and he would help you with all your questions. Don’t worry. Your supplies won’t be affected.”
Marshall then just hung up the phone and didn’t wait for Clara’s reply.
Swinging the phone aside, he looked indifferent and suddenly lost it, “Fuck it.”
He was busy all morning in the company.
During lunch break, Marshall thought for a while and grabbed the coat and left the company.
He directly drove towards Katherine’s house.
There was a traffic jam in an intersection.
He slowly tapped on the steering wheel without ant rhythm and checked the rear-view mirror habitually.
He instantly sensed that something was wrong.
There was a car parking two cars behind him on the lane beside him and the guy on the passenger seat was poking his head out and surveying his direction.
Marshall wasn’t sure that he was looking at him, but that man looked quite fishy and all of his behaviors was suspicious.
Marshall thought for a while and also craned out his head to look at that man who immediately withdrew his head and lifted the window.
Marshall laughed at the man’s jittery.
He actually checked the rear-view mirror for a few times on the way and didn’t notice the car.
The man should be following him mid-way or he didn’t tag his car closely.
After the traffic light turned green, Marshall hit on the gas pedal and just remained the car speed before.
The car that was following him didn’t leave till he was at gate door.
Marshall then got out of the car and told his minions the car plate number to let him investigate the car.
Then he went into the yard.
Katherine and Frances were having lunch and they were both surprised to see Marshall home.
Marshall got the tableware himself and then said, “What a perfect timing. I knew I would make it to lunch.”
Katherine gazed at home, “What are you doing home now?”
Marshall landed his sight on Katherine’s belly, “I’m home to check on my son.”
Katherine’s face immediately darkened.
Frances laughed, “Stop using your son as an excuse. You can just admit that you missed Katherine.”
Marshall grinned, “Well, I thought she would know this.”
Katherine didn’t say anything and went on eating.
While he was having lunch, Marshall got a call from one of his minions who said that he had located the owner of the account name that he asked him to look into earlier.
Marshall then stood up and left the dining room.
Frances was a bit surprised, “How come that he is taking that call outside? What is he hiding from us?”
Katherine sneered lightly, “Well, he is probably talking to some girls and was afraid that we might hear them.”
Frances glanced at Katherine and pretended to nod along, “Right, that girl is probably carrying his baby. I will ask him later for you. We definitely can’t spare him.”
Katherine broke into laughter in a moment.
Marshall’s minion told him that the owner of that account was a housewife who was not living in the city so that it took them a while to find her.
His minion even went to this woman’s home to find out exactly what she was up to.
He said that this woman was living with her husband and daughter at the fringe areas.
They were pretty poor and according to the neighbor, this couple fought a lot, but surprisingly, they were quite happy the last couple of days and seemed like something great had happened to them.
He even sent Marshall a picture of that woman.
