CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 513 He Was Simply in a Dilemma

Marshall accompanied Katherine to walk around and they finally sat down on a bench in the garden.

Marshall rubbed Katherine’s belly and asked, “It’s about time for antenatal appointment. Tell me in advance when you need to go. I will accompany with you.”

Katherine leaned against the bench and noted, “There is no need to. It’s not a complex thing. You can deal with business if you’re business. I and Mrs. Mason can handle it.”

Marshall grabbed her hand and rubbed it in his palms, saying, “There is nothing more important than accompanying you for the antenatal test. I want to participate in all the procedures on our baby’s growth.”

He then turned around to look at her in the eye, saying seriously, “I also wish you can know my resolution that my words I used to promise were sincere.”

It sounded loving, but in some ways awkward.

It was almost time for Marshall to go back to work after sitting for a while.

He sent Katherine to the main building and then drove to the company.

Khalid still didn’t return. Marshall didn’t know how much time he would spend having lunch.

He leaned against the office chair and took out his phone to check. His subordinate had sent him several messages and they were all about today’s interrogation.

Marshall checked every text and then deleted them all.

Peter came in as soon as he put down the phone. “Boss, I have already checked the car. There is nothing wrong. Someone just installed a monitoring device on it and didn’t do anything else.”

Marshall nodded and replied, “Handle with it even if there is nothing else special.”

Peter knew what he meant and answered, “Yes, I know what to do.”

Peter then turned around to leave. When he was opening the door, Marshall noticed Khalid from the crack.

Khalid was passing by with documents in his hands and seemed to be busy all the time.

Marshall checked the time and found working time didn’t even start. He then got up to go outside.

It happened that Khalid just returned to his office, while Marshall followed him up.

Marshall pushed the door open and asked, “Have you had lunch yet? Are you busy all the time?”

Khalid was startled. He then turned around to look at him and answered with a smile, “I am not always busy. It’s just that I get lots of things to deal with today and have to cut off my lunch time.”

Marshall came forward and pulled a chair to sit down, remarking, “Your health is more important. You can never finish endless work. Sometimes it’s better to have a rest.”

Khalid purled up his lips and nodded, “Yes, words are endless.”

Marshall changed another topic and asked, “Actually, I am curious about the loved one you used to tell aunt Lydia. It seems that that woman is also familiar with Lydia. I want to know who that woman is.” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Khalid laughed out loud and remarked, “Have you been confused with this thing since the day I told you about it?”

Marshall crossed his hands and put them on his legs, replying, “Not always, but sometimes I will remind of it.”

Khalid glanced at him and asked, “Well, Marshall, are you afraid of something?”

Marshall didn’t deny it at once but replied, “Not really afraid. I am just being curious and get a bit worried.”

He then explained, “You should know what I am talking about. I don’t worry that you have a relation with the woman you talked about, but I am afraid that the woman will get hurt because your attitude.”

Sighing, Marshall continued, “You know about aunt Lydia’s temper. I am just afraid you will get yourself in trouble.”

Khalid was startled. If Marshall didn’t remind him, he would never think out this point.

It turned out that he was really being inconsiderate.

His words were ambiguous, which resulted Lydia got alert when seeing he was with Katherine the last time.

Khalid sat on the chair and also sighed, saying, “Well, I get it. I was really being inconsiderate.”

When hearing his words, Marshall therefore changed another topic.

He looked around the office and remarked, “Actually, both of us are still young. We can never finish our endless job and have to be trapped in the office forever. Why don’t we remain enthusiastic to go outside to meet more people?”

Khalid closed the documents and noted, “I think I understand why you come to meet me this time. You don’t have to explain too much. I know what I should do.”

Marshall nodded with a smile, replying, “That’s good. It seems that you have to continue you work. I won’t interrupt you.”

Then he stood up and slowly turned around to leave the office.

Actually, Marshall didn’t have to point everything too obviously. They were all adults and could get each other’s meaning.

Marshall went back to his office and left the door open. Within a short while when it was almost duty time, Khalid finally came to find him.

Instead of seeming to be in a rush, Khalid now showed a relieved expression.

He passed by Marshall’s door and turned around to look at him, then showed a smile. It seemed he was in a good mood.

Marshall also got the habit to gossip as Katherine did. He stood up and left the office again to follow Khalid to his office.

Marshall closed the door and stared at him for a while.

Khalid also glanced at him. Instead of showing an impatient look, he asked calmy, “What? What kind of look is that?”

Marshall stood in front of his office table and looked at him, asking, “Did you have lunch with mom today? Have you come to find her?”

In past times, facing this kind of question, Khalid would either be too ashamed to answer it or even ignored it without giving an answer.

However, this time, he didn’t show any embarrassed look.

He admitted it in a crisp way.

Marshall got confused and asked, “Have you gone to the Mason’s house?”

Khalid raised up his head to look at him and replied, “I haven’t.”

Marshall then couldn’t figure it out and asked, “Then how did you have lunch with mom without visiting her house?”

Marshall thought for a while and popped his eyes widely, asking, “Did mom stand up Nicolas and ran out to have lunch with you?”

Khalid didn’t answer him this time, but Marshall could already judge from his attitude about what happened.

Marshall remained silent for a while and noted, “Well, you two are…”

He then stopped his words in the half way.

Khalid checked the time and remarked, “Well, it’s already working time. Go to do your job now. I have lots of things to deal with in the afternoon.”

Of course, Khalid would because he went outside to waste lots of time even with loads of documents piled on the table.

Marshall nodded and replied, “It seems you want to reunion with mom. Personally, I think you can directly express your feelings and it will work better than being tentative. Mom is also a frank person and there is no need for you to beat about the bush.”

Khalid simply lowered his head to look through the documents without saying anything.

It couldn’t tell whether he had understood Marshall’s words or not.

Hence, Marshall decided to end up his speech.

He got out Khalid’s office. Suddenly reminding of something, he stood in front of the door and laughed when lowering his voice.

On the other side, Katherine got back the room and looked through the phone in bored.

With random check, she suddenly noticed Kyle’s missed call,

Kyle was not in a good mood these days because Bosie’s punch had messed up his life.

Katherine called back and it took Kyle a long time to pick it up. Kyle answered in a low voice, “Kathy.”

Kathy greeted him and finally asked, “What happened? I was asleep when you called and didn’t hear the ring. Are you still feeling upset?”

Instead of being uncomfortable, Kyle just got confused.

He went to the hospital today and learned that Bosie already left the hospital.

Kyle really inspired himself up when he went to the hospital today with the ambition to win his respect back.

However, it turned out that Bosie was already gone, which made Kyle extremely awkward. He then went to the gym Bosie opened up, but she was still not there.

Kyle had already guessed what would turn out to be. He simply wanted to try his luck to find Bosie.

However, when he came out from the gym, he found there was a bunch of people who took sticks to get inside.

Kyle had met loads of situations and could tell those people were coming to find trouble.
