CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times
Chapter 259 Killing Two Birds with One Stone

Peter answered the phone almost immediately, obviously he also saw the news.

Before Katherine could ask anything, Peter said that he was at the company and was in a meeting, thinking about how to deal with the news.

It was not the answer Katherine wanted. She asked Peter if it was convenient for him to talk.

Peter understood right away and told her to wait a second.

Then Katherine heard Peter moving his chair, followed by the sound of walking, and then, it was quiet.

Peter said, "There is no one around me now."

Katherine said, "Did you pick up Marshall at the car accident today?"

Peter pursed his lips, already knowing what Katherine wanted to know.

He answered directly, "Yes, I picked him up. Clara was also there. The two of them were together, but there must be nothing else, they were calm to see me. I don't think there was something unpresentable going on between them."

Katherine was actually not surprised that Clara and Marshall were together, after all, she had heard Clara's voice on the phone.

But she thought that Marshall and Clara met in the downtown.

Why did they go to the outer suburbs? What was there?

She wondered where they went.

Did they go there to get a room?

Marshall didn't come back last night, and he rushed back with Clara to downtown at noon. Thoughts flashed in her mind.

If this was the case, it has gone too far.

Moreover, she didn't know what reason she should use to announce the divorce.

Unfortunately, now she had a reason.

Peter didn't know much more. He said that he didn't know what Marshall and Clara were doing there. It was not on Marshall's schedule.

Peter was upset about how to explain Marshall and Clara's affairs to the public.

It just seemed that no matter how he explained, the public won't buy it.

And the news was obviously a trap.

How could the media happen to be at the scene and take the photo right on the spot?

It was a little bit unreasonable, besides, there were lots of trolls commenting on the Internet.

So there must be some interest entanglements.

A simple explanation was probably useless.

Katherine smiled, "Okay, I see, get on with your work."

Kyle leaned over, "How is it? What did Peter say? I don't think Marshall and Clara are having an affair, they don't have chemistry."

Katherine stood up, she was not in the mood to play.

But she reached out, "Financial matters should be settled."

Kyle hissed, "Are you in the mood of settling financial matters?"

Katherine stared at him, "Just give me the money."

She only took Hector and Kyle's money, and neverminded the waiter. The waiter was here to make up the number after all.

After collecting the money, Katherine stood up and said, "I've got a seemingly cheating husband. I have to go home. Let's play some other time." She seemed not to care about the news.

Kyle was a little relieved. He felt that the news was hyping, and it would not have much impact.

Katherine took a taxi and went home, but Marshall was not here.

She walked around the house, feeling that there was no change in the living room, and she couldn't tell if Marshall had come back.

Katherine went upstairs and returned to her room.

She took out the phone, and Marshall's news was overwhelming.

On the local gossip page, eight out of ten was Marshall's news.

Maybe people were bored recently, and they scrambled at every news.

Katherine had time so she read all the news, including comments.

The news said that Marshall was dishonest and cheating.

The comments said that Marshall and Clara were be true love, and it was also said that Marshall was always dishonest, and the thing with Sam Thompson might be true. Anyway, the comments were not friendly.

Katherine stared at the comments for a long time, trying to retort as an anonymous user, but she didn't know what to say.

So she put her phone aside and lay on the bed.

She didn't sleep well yesterday, and she was sleepy. It seemed that she completely mov on.

After a while, she fell asleep.

She slept until the evening, and woke up hungry.

She got up lightheaded.

She went downstairs to cook quick-frozen dumplings, which was convenient.

Marshall came back as soon as the dumplings were in the pot.

Katherine stood in the kitchen and saw Marshall driving a new car.

Okay, he was rich.

Anyway, she seemed to have a subject one exam soon.

When she got the driver's license, she could have a car.

Katherine saw Marshall walking towards the living room.

She withdrew her gaze and stared only at the dumplings in the pot.

Marshall came in and stared at Katherine for a while.

She was in a good mood and was humming.

Marshall heard from Peter that Katherine called and asked about the news.

Therefore, she really didn't care.

She didn't care who Marshall was with or where he was.

Marshall sneered and went straight upstairs.

Katherine went to the dining room to eat on her own.

There was another car coming over.

Katherine went out, it was Khalid and Mrs. Grant.

They looked serious.

Katherine stood there, waiting for Khalid to come in, she said hello to him.

Khalid nodded, looking a little embarrassed, probably because of the news.

Katherine didn't say hello to Mrs. Grant, she turned around and went into the dining room.

Mrs. Grant had no time to attend to Katherine.

Khalid and Mrs. Grant went straight upstairs.

Marshall said, "Why are you here?"

Mrs. Grant said, "You know why we are here. We are here to discuss with you how to deal with the news."

Marshall returned to his room, "I said I would figure it out myself."

Mrs. Grant followed in, "I told you before, the thing with Sam Thompson passed, and you should announce the divorce, you didn't listen to me, look at what happened now."

She sat on the bed.

Khalid was calm, "What's your plan? I came back from the company. Although your uncles have not said anything, they were obviously not pleased. After all, it also has an impact on the company, so I hope we can come up with a plan."

Mrs. Grant pursed her lips and looked at Marshall, and Marshall didn't say anything.

She felt that this was a good opportunity to announce the divorce and tied in wedlock with Clara.

It was called killing two birds with one stone.

Mrs. Grant looked at the bedside table. The drawer was ajar, and she could see what was inside.

She slowly opened the drawer and saw the divorce certificate and divorce agreement.

She knew what to do.

Marshall was a little upset, he went to the window to smoke, "I will fix it, I have to wait for the trend on the Internet to change."

Khalid also went over, "I'm now checking to see if there are any manipulators behind the scenes, and whether it was planned by someone."

Mrs. Grant looked at them, then took out the divorce certificate and divorce agreement in secret.[]
