CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 340 I Hope She Can Blame Me

Katherine really didn’t know what to do under this situation, so she just remained silent and knelt beside Old Mrs. Grant.

The master chanted a lot of Buddha quotes which Katherine didn’t understand a bit.

They then headed towards another meditation abode where housed the big wooden box that Katherine had seen in the Walters.

There were several young masters chanting by the box.

Old Mrs. Grant stood in front of the box and Katherine just followed.

Old Mrs. Grant turned to Katherine and asked, “Do you want to pick one.”

“It’s all right. I don’t have anything to wish for.”

Old Mrs. Grant let out a sigh and then got a stick out with her eyes closed.

The master then took the stick over and sat on a wooden chair.

Katherine scanned around and found that the abode was of antique beauty with bamboo doors.

While no one was paying attention to her, Kathrine slowly exited the abode and waited by the door.

The back yard was pretty tranquil with not many prayers and looked just like a country yard.

Katherine waited for a while and then followed a neat path.

She then saw a main hall standing at her left hand while she took a turn.

There were several masters talking to a prayer there.

That prayer looked serious and was making a bow to the masters.

He then slowly turned around in a few seconds and put down his hands.

Katherine remained motionless.

Marshall cracked a smile and slowly descended the stairs and walked towards Katherine.

While he stood in front of Katherine, he said, “Grandma is still in it?”

Katherine nodded, “She is drawing marriage divination for you.”

Marshall was in his casual clothes and didn’t look like he came from the office.

She then added, “Old Mrs. Grant said you are busy and can’t accompany her here. You look quite unoccupied to me.”

“I managed to take this time out.”

Under the current situation, though Katherine knew that Old Mrs. Grant called her over with other motives, she dared not to vent out.

Hearing the Buddha odes, she felt pretty peaceful and felt like she can have a cool-headed analysis of what was going on in her life.

Marshall glanced around, “You are new here, right? Let’s walk around.”

Katherine nodded and followed Marshall walking along the path.

“My store is about to open for business soon, so I might get busy and wouldn’t have time for this kind of thing from now on.”

Marshall just nodded.

Katherine nodded, “I’m actually curious of what Old Mrs. Grand had drawn for you.”

Marshall turned to Katherine, “Don’t you want to draw one?”

“Nah, I fell quite contented now.”

“I have a stable relationship with Hector now, so I’m not exactly interested in this marriage thing.” Katherine continued.

Marshall’s eyes immediately changed and just nodded as a reply.

Katherine let out a breath, “Compared to the happy life now, I was quite miserable before.”

Marshall looked at Katherine, “I’m sorry for before.”

Katherine smiled, “Huh, lucky me. You won’t get the chance to make life shitty for me again.”

Marshall got silent.

They walked to the front of the temple and there were lots of prayers there, so Katherine didn’t want to join in.

They just stood in a long corridor, seeing all the prayers in an endless stream.

“Did you change the bedding for me when you sent me home that day?”

“You threw up.” Marshall answered,

Well, he was not exactly lying, Katherine did puke that day.

Katherine nodded, “Did I do anything crazy?”

Well, how can one define crazy? In Marshall’s mind, the hot sex between them didn’t count as one, after all, they had experienced that before.

So he just replied, “No.”

Katherine finally felt at ease.

Then the conversation just stopped.

The two didn’t talk to each other till Old Mrs. Grant called and wondered where Katherine was.

Marshall and Katherine then went to find her together.

Old Mrs. Grant was shocked to see Marshall here and teased, “Didn’t you say you don’t have the time?’

“I took the time out.”

Old Mrs. Grant nodded and said she was done.

Old Mrs. Grant said that she was going to dine in the temple before, but now, she didn’t bring it up.

So the group went downhill together.

Old Mrs. Grant actually looked quite tired which Katherine assumed was because she didn’t draw a good result, otherwise, she wouldn’t leave so early.

After they got on the car, Katherine asked how did Marshall’s marriage divination stick go.

Old Mrs. Grant didn’t answer her question directly and just muttered, “Well, we can’t really believe this kind of thing. Human effort is the decisive factor.”

Katherine immediately knew what Old Mrs. Grant was trying to say.

While they were driving to the downtown area, Old Mrs. Grant suggested to have lunch together.

Katherine smiled, “I’m gonna pass. I have to go to the store. There are a lot of things I have to deal with.”

This sounded like that Katherine was just trying to come up with an excuse. While Old Mrs. Grant wanted to say something, Marshall spoke, “Right, we can have lunch some other day when you are not busy with your store.”

Old Mrs. Grant was surprised by Marshall’s reaction.

Marshall glanced at Old Mrs. Grant from the rear-view mirror and Old Mrs. Grant just stopped.

Katherine took a sigh of relief secretly and nodded.

Marshall drove Katherine to the store and Katherine just got off the car after bidding farewells to Old Mrs. Grant who frowned when she saw the plaque. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“The store name doesn’t sound good.”

Leaning against the chair, Marshall looked at Katherine, “Well, Katherine likes it.”

“She is blaming you for what happened.”

“I would wish that. I’m more afraid that she has moved on.”

Marshall then drove away.

Old Mrs. Grant brought another matter up on the way, “Your dad is also occupied these days. Like father, like son.”

Marshall was actually taken aback, “What happened?”

“Don’t you know that? Your father is home late these couple of days. He often returns home at midnight. Well, it’s not really the company stuff.” Old Mr. Grant then took a sigh.

“Well, it’s better if you know this. Otherwise, you might get uncomfortable if you hear this from others.”

Marshall smiled, “You can tell me.”

“Do you remember the women that was supposed to marry your father but regretted it at the last moment? She is in hospital these days. There is no one to take care of her, so your father goes there every day. I didn’t ask why he is doing
