Katherine came downstairs in a while and said slowly, “You can leave now. There is nothing for you to
do here. I can fix the dinner myself.”
The old Marshall would definitely tease her a bit for casting him aside when she didn’t need him, but
now, he had come up with a better and more effective idea.
He directly answered, “Nah, I don’t want to leave. How can you treat me this way? I even made the
soup for you. I’d like to stay.”
Then Marshall just went to rummage through the fridge, “We can eat something else if you don’t want
to have takeaways. Let me see. Maybe I can give it a try.”
Katherine rolled her eyes at him. “Step aside.”
Marshall then stood upright and watched Katherine picking out some veggies from the fridge.
He hurriedly took them over, “I’ll wash them. You can concentrate on cooking later.”
Katherine glanced at Marshall and didn’t reject him.
‘Well, he is indeed taking good care of me today. I can just think this as... as...’
‘Stop it. Don’t think too much about this.’ Katherine struggled inside.
While they were teaming up to get the food on the table, Kyle drove the car over.
He yelled before he even stepped foot in the house, “Katherine, are you okay? I went to the store and
Margaret said that you didn’t look all right and went home. What happened?”
Kyle’s voice was distinctively audible even one was on the second floor.
Katherine paid no heed to Kyle and went on cooking dishes.
Kyle heard the noise in the kitchen upon entering the house and hurriedly swooped in.
Then he just paused, “Marshall? What are you doing here?”
Marshall was helping to clean the sink and didn’t even turn to Kyle, “Why can’t I be here? You are here,
aren’t you?”
Kyle hissed, “I come here because me and Katherine are friends. You are her ex-husband. Why are
you paying such frequent visits here?”
Marshall pondered and changed the subject, “I saw Alexis today. She collided her car with someone.
Then she just got hot-tempered and stroke the man. He looked pretty injured to me.”
Kyle’s eyes immediately widened, “Really? Well, I got to look into this. If it’s true, I would for sure shape
the public opinion and destroy her once and for all this time.”
Marshall smiled, “Well, I’ll be watching.”
Kyle leaned closer and looked at the pot, “I haven’t had dinner yet. How much did you cook?”
Katherine grinned, “Why didn’t you come here after having dinner?”
Kyle pouted, “Well, it’s dinner time now. Of course I would come here with an empty belly.”
Katherine then handed the plates to Kyle, “Take these to the dining room.”
She meant to save a portion for the breakfast, but now, it seemed impossible.
After getting everything done, the three went to the dining room.
Kyle wanted to know more about what happened to Alexis and just kept on inquiring Marshall.
Marshall just gave him a rough description of what he saw, but this certainly can’t satisfy Kyle.
He mused for a while and called someone to give this accident a thorough investigation.
After hanging up the phone, Kyle rubbed his hands together excitedly and exclaimed that he had
another goal in his life.
Katherine smiled wryly and looked at Kyle, “Kyle, if you really got so much time to spare, why don’t you
focusing on fixing your personal problem? It’s waste of time to spend your time on others. You should
really think about yourself more.”
Kyle paused, “Myself? Well, I got nothing to worry. I’m great this way.”
Lips pursed, Katherine asked, “Were you hurt by a girl before?”
Kyle first nodded and then shook his head, “I was hurt, but nothing like you would presume. It’s just I
would lose all my interests on women once I see my four sisters. Honestly, I think I would lead a pretty
sweet life being alone.”
Marshall chuckled, “Won’t you father lecture you?”
“No.” Kyle replied adamantly, “He said that I would only ruin the good girls, so he would rather wish me
living alone.”
Katherine broke into laughers, “Your father is for sure philosophical.”
After having the dinner, Marshall and Kyle sat on the sofa and watched the TV while discussing how to
bring Alexis to the ground.
Katherine went straight back to her bedroom.
After changing into pajamas, she suddenly felt nauseated for no reason.
Well, it could be that she had a bit too much since she hadn’t eaten anything for the whole day, but
definitely not to the point that she would feel throwing up.
This seemed a bit exaggerated.
Katherine took a deep breath and went to open the window.
She felt a bit better after the cold wind blew in.
But just a while after, she felt sickening again.
She drew a breath and then went to the bathroom to rinse her mouth.
Propping herself against the hand wash, Katherine had a wave of nauseating feeling coming at her.
Katherine took deep breathes but in the end vomited all at once.
She hurriedly rinsed her mouth and splashed some water on her face.
She had constant stomach troubles, so this must be one of them.
Well, she got to take good care of herself, otherwise, her body wouldn’t be able to cooperate well.
Katherine waited for a while to recover and then went downstairs.
Marshall and Kyle were still chatting. Marshall stole a glance at Katherine while talking and immediately
froze, “What happened? You looked terrible.”
Katherine went to the kitchen and boiled some hot water, “My stomach is acting up.”
Marshall was aware of Katherine’s tummy troubles as she even spat blood in Asela Island before.
Marshall frowned, “Do you have antacids at home?”
Actually, Katherine didn’t have any pills at home, but she didn’t feel like having them, so she lied,
“Yeah, I just took one. Well, it probably got stuck in my throat, so I want to get some water to flush it
down.”
She sounded reasonable, so Marshall didn’t think too much.
After having some hot water, Katherine finally felt a bit better and just went upstairs.
She wanted to lie on the bed and scroll the phone for a while, but she instantly felt dizzy,
Katherine got irritated and put her phone down after cursing.
She just locked the door and went to bed without caring when would Marshall and Kyle leave.
Katherine straight slept till the next day and felt quite muddle-headed when she woke up.
It was all sunny outside, Katherine went to freshen up and immediately got that revolting feeling.
Katherine took a deep breath and felt odd.
Well, for all the stomach troubles that she had these years, none of them felt this way.
She looked into the mirror and something suddenly came to her mind but immediately disappeared.
Katherine hurriedly went out and looked up online.
Her syndrome was too general, so she got a bunch of different answers.
Katherine stared at the uppermost answer and pondered.
