Hector didn’t seem to be embarrassed and just asked, “Where is Katherine?”
Marshall half turned and looked outside of the office, but failed to see Katherine and Peter, then he
replied, “She is out. Do you need something?”
Hector froze for a while and answered, “I will call her later then.”
Then he just hung up the phone.
Clutching at Katherine’s phone, Marshall stood for a minute and then snickered.
Hector must have known his relationship with Katherine, otherwise, he won’t be so calm.
Anyone would get uncomfortable if a call to a woman was picked up by her husband.
But Hector didn’t.
Marshall felt that Katherine must have told him about the divorce.
She really believed in him then.
Marshall didn’t delete the call history and just threw the phone back to the sofa.
After he just sat down, Katherine and Peter returned.
Peter ordered a bunch, so the dishes were placed all over the tea table across the sofa.
While setting the tableware, Katherine called Marshall, “Hey, come over and grab a bite. You didn’t
have the breakfast this morning.
Peter paused and glanced at Katherine, “He didn’t have the breakfast? Then he hadn’t eaten all day.
He had been busy all morning. Well, one’s body is bound to suffer if he doesn’t eat well.”
Katherine chortled, “What’s the big deal? It’s just that he skipped a meal. There is no need to freak
out.”
Peter froze and didn’t expect Katherine would react this way.
He meant to let her worry.
Peter stole a glance of Marshall and noticed that he didn’t have any mood swings.
Then he felt much at ease.
Marshall joined the table after Katherine and Peter had set everything up.
He sat next to Peter.
Then he spoke after having a mouthful of rice, “Your friend just called. He called twice, so I picked it up
for you.”
Katherine was surprised, “Who is it?”
Marshall frowned, “His contact remark is Hector.”
“Oh, really?” Katherine grinned. “I’ll call him back then.”
The way she smiled was like her crush had just called.
Nobody said a word during the dinner.
Katherine had some with Hector before, so she wasn’t exactly hungry now. She just had some of her
favorites and then just put down the chopsticks, “You guys go ahead. I need to take a call outside.”
When Katherine was out, Peter complained, “What the hell? They just met for a few days, right? Could
she be any merrier to take that call?”
Marshall smiled, “Well, it’s probably that they can get along well with each other.”
Peter twitched his mouth, “The Bennetts was not as influential as the Grants. It’s not a good deal for
her to give up on you and be with the Bennetts.”
Marshall then looked at Peter, “There is no such a thing as a good bargain in a relationship. Suitability
matters the most.”
Then he stopped and continued in a while, “Katherine and me are not right for each other.”
Peter remained silent and muttered in a while, “You can’t exactly define this love thing. How can you
know that you are not a match?”
Well…
Marshall can’t really lay out the reasons clearly.
But he just knew that Katherine was not his type.
However, Marshall can’t really tell what exactly he wanted.
Marshall looked up and could see Katherine talking on the phone in the hallway via the window.
She seemed happy and was beamed with smiles.
Marshall stared at Katherine’s back for a while.
If he had to say one thing that he and Katherine were perfect for each other, it got to their sexual
attraction.
While talking to Hector on the phone, Katherine was walking back and forth subconsciously.
Hector also had saw the news on the Internet and wondered if Katherine was involved in trouble.
Katherine didn’t really feel that she was implicated or what, because even she was embroiled in the
whole thing, she was the one who would be sympathized by the public.
She might win some favorability.
Seeing that Katherine was so positive, Hector was finally at ease.
But he still asked, “Why hadn’t you announced your divorce to the public?”
Katherine didn’t explain to him about this before.
