In the morning, Katherine woke up. After washing up, she picked up the phone.
Dozens of calls were all from Marshall.
Glancing, she then deleted all the call log.
‘What’s wrong with him?’
She went downstairs. Feeling no mood to cook, she then had a breakfast in a diner.
While having the breakfast, she held the phone and browsed the news.
She did see a tabloid about Marshall and she entered the website.
The news was a photo, in which Marshall was sitting on a sofa in the bar, with a woman leaning slightly
on his side.
The wording of the news this time is objective saying that Marshall was seen in a bar and found flirting
with a woman and left together with her in midnight.
The news left so much imaginable plot about Marshall and the female.
Then Katherine closed the news website. Having the breakfast leisurely, she took a taxi to her store.
Margaret was already there and looked unhappy.
Glancing at her, Katherine asked, “Why? Who pissed you off in this morning?”
Margaret pouted, “No one. I just met some people who likes spreading gossip. It’s so annoying.”
Katherine laughed, “Leave them alone. We just pay attention to our own life, and it’s enough.”
Margaret sighed, “But it’s really annoying.”
Margaret never acted like that. So Katherine turned to look at her and doubted, “What did they say?”
Pausing, Margaret avoided her eyes, “Not me, they gossiped about my family, so I feel so upset.”
Katherine ignored her look, nodding, “It’s inevitable, so just leave it and forget it.”
After the busy time, Katherine stepped away from the work to the door and moved her body.
Then a car pulled over by her. Katherine turned to see.
He didn’t exit but rolled down the window. Katherine lowered to see Ralph.
She had met so many people that day in the Walters family, so it took her some time to recognize him.
He showed a smile, “Grandma let me pay a visit here. Now I see you.”
Katherine just said, “In fact, you don’t have to come here and you can lie when Old Mrs. Walters
mentions it. I will cover it.”
Her address to Old Mrs. Walters surprised Ralph. He thought she will call her grandma.
Katherine got nothing to talk with him, “Now you see me and you can go.”
Ralph showed a sincere smile, “You are Katherine, right? Okay, I am impressed.”
Then she continued stretching.
Ralph lifted the window and then started the car.
Seeing the car disappear, Katherine sighed. She was not happy to get involved with the Walters family.
She shouldn’t have gone with Kyle that day.
After a while, Katherine walked back into the store, seeing Margaret playing with the phone with a mad
look.
She asked, “Why you look like that?”
Margaret put the phone aside, “I am mad at the news.”
The current news were all the gossips about the stars.
Katherine got themselves two cups of hot coco, getting seated opposite her, “Leave the news, there is
nothing interesting.”
Margaret held the cup and took a sip, “Yes, nothing interesting.”
Katherine asked nothing more. They sat there, looking through the window at the outside.
Marshall also watched the news, but he didn’t care.
Frances even called him to ask whether it was true about the news.
Marshall gave a positive answer, “The photo tells the truth.”
Frances was mad at him, “Silly. You shouldn’t have gone that place if you want a woman. You know
what kind of a place it is. What’s more, you are so careless to be taken photos.”
Marshall didn’t feel like talking about that, “Enough. It’s not so serious on the internet, and you can
leave it.”
He was single now. Although he had a one-night stand, it had nothing to do with the ways he lived.
Frances also knew that what she wanted to say will make him unhappy, so she swallowed the words.
Marshall had a full day in the company. He had an opportunity to check the phone until he was off
work.
He checked Katherine’s moment first and there was no new moment these days.
Marshall sighed. What was he expecting?
Marshall then went downstairs and got into his car. On the seat, he felt so annoyed.
He started the car, heading to Katherine’s store.
Passing by the store, he can see clearly Kyle in it, who was talking and laughing with Katherine.
She was not influenced by the news at all.
He then left, with his car gunning away.
Kyle in the store was talking about his club. Besides, those from the Bennett family was very mad when
watching the show of Hector.
He came across Alexis in the bar yesterday, who was telling her friends that her family were disgraced
by Hector.
Kyle was about to scold Alexis, telling her that the family was disgraced by having such members like
Alexis and Patrick. But he was stopped by Marshall.
Marshall knew that it’s useless to scold and preach. Patrick, Alexis and Ariel will learn from a lesson
only when they paid too much for it.
With his words, Kyle knew that he got a plan.
Hearing beside, Margaret interrupted, “You were in the bar with Mr. Grant, but why you not on the
news?”
Kyle paused, then said, “The news wanted to catch eyes, so it’s better that there was no one else
there. Besides, I was drunk at that time and fell asleep opposite Marshall.”
Katherine laughed, “So you have no idea what really happened between Marshall and that woman.”
Kyle scratched the head, “Yes. When I arrived, Marshall was alone there. I am not clear when the
woman appeared.”
