Kyle went back in the late afternoon and seemed pissed off.
Katherine and Frances had already called someone to continue playing mahjong, but instead of money,
they were winning pokers.
They were simply enjoying the process of playing mahjong.
Face darkened, Kyle went into the room and when he saw they were all beaming and having fun, half
of his anger just went away.
Katherine glanced at him and said, “What happened? You seemed furious. Who can do this to you? I’m
really shocked.”
Kyle sniggered and went to sit next to Katherine, “Well, nothing important here.”
Katherine continued playing and didn’t ask further questions.
Kyle was obviously edgy the whole time and was constantly shaking his legs.
Katherine asked him a question about the mahjong and Kyle didn’t even know what she was talking
about.
Katherine giggled, “What’s wrong? You don’t seem all right.”
Kyle smiled back and stood up, “Well, it’s really stuffy here. I got to get some fresh air outside.”
Katherine glanced at the open windows and knew that Kyle was just making excuses.
But she just chuckled, “Sure, just sort out whatever is bothering you.”
Kyle let out a long breath and went out.
Frances looked at her tiles, “Something is clearly wrong.”
Katherine answered, “My tiles?”
“No.” Frances laughed, “The person who just went out.”
Katherine replied, “Well, Kyle is obviously out of form today. Well, he would just tell us what happened
later judging from his look.”
Kyle went to smoke a cigarette and the people inside just stopped playing.
The waiters came outside and greeted Kyle.
Kyle would always greet back at normal times, but today, it seemed like he didn’t hear a thing.
Katherine leaned against the doorframe and gazed at Kyle, “Come on in. Do you want to tell us
something?”
Kyle dismissed the idea, “I got nothing to say.”
Then he just went back to the room.
Frances went to stand by the window and did pay heed to Kyle.
Though Kyle refused to say anything, he uttered while he was entering the room, “I got to punish those
douchebags when I have the time.”
Katherine smiled, “Well, you got to do the whole package.”
She then went to sit on the chair, “You went out for a pretty long time.”
Kyle leaned against the mahjong machine, “Well, yeah, but I didn’t really do anything.”
He just tortured two people who were idiots and was still fuming.
Katherine didn’t say anything and waited for Kyle to continue.
He then added, “Well, someone just messed with the wrong person and I have to teach them a lesson.”
Katherine raised her eyebrows, “How surprising. Who dared to mess with your people?”
Kyle looked at Katherine and got awkward.
He then continued, “Well, of course they didn’t have the audacity to mess with my man. It was just that
I went to interrogate them about something and they weren’t exactly cooperating. There is no way that I
would put up with their poor attitude.”
Katherine smiled and grasped the key, “What happened? Why do you need to be there in person?”
Kyle instantly went speechless.
Katherine started at him and half-smiled.
Kyle paused for a while and answered, “Well, I’m just helping someone out.”
He said vaguely and seemed to be embarrassed.
Katherine broke into laughter, “Fine. I really don’t know what are you talking about. Just tell me when
you know how to phrase it.”
She then paused a bit and continued, “We have a dinner date with Clara tonight and Marshall would
pick us up later.”
Kyle was surprised, “Clara? What does she want?”
Right, Kyle didn’t know the conflict between Katherine and Clara yet.
Katherine didn’t really want to talk about it as she was the one to provoke Clara first in the hospital and
felt bored to reveal the drama between women to Kyle.
She then just replied, “Well, she probably just wants to seek some attention. Well, I don’t really care.”
Kyle curled his lips, “You’d better watch out. That woman might poison you. Be careful.”
Katherine chuckled and joked, “Should I bring a silver needle to test it out?”
Eyes widened, Kyle said, “I’m being serious.”
Katherine nodded, “Sure, got it.”
Marshall then called and said he was on the way to Kyle’s club.
Katherine and Frances then just went downstairs.
The relationship between Kyle and Frances were much better now.
Standing by the door, he said to Frances, “Auntie Frances, you can just come by when you have time. I
really need a good match to practice my skills.”
Frances nodded and said to him via the car window, “Well, you might lose your entire club to me if I’m
here more.”
Marshall smiled in the car, “Well, it seems like you had a good time here.”
Katherine then waved to Kyle and patted on Marshall’s shoulder, “Let’s go.”
She then answered Marshall’s question, “Well, we did have fun here, but Kyle seemed off today. I
would really suspect he went out for a girl if he wasn’t wearing his gold chain today.”
No women would like his taste on clothes.
Marshall giggled while Frances told him the address, “Yeah, she texted me too.”
Well, how thoughtful. She informed everyone here.
There was a heavy traffic on the way as they just got off work, so they were late.
Clara was already waiting in the room.
Frances first pushed the door open and Clara immediately stood up, “Auntie Frances.”
Frances nodded, “We’re a bit late.”
Clara seemed considerate, “Well, there is a lot of traffic on the road at this time.”
Marshall and Katherine followed in and didn’t say hello to Clara as they were busy talking about what
happened to Kyle today.
Marshall smiled and said lowly, “Rest assured. Kyle would for sure tell you in a few days now that you
know something now. You are definitely the one he would go to when he wants to confess.”
Katherine raised her eyebrows, “You sure know him well.”
They were both beaming in low voice and seemed to be whispering to each other.
Clara glanced at them and said, “Let’s all get seated. I ordered a few dishes before. You can see which
one you like and let’s order more.”
Then she pushed the menu to Katherine.
Katherine said thanks to her smilingly.
Marshall immediately leaned closer to her when she got the menu.
Katherine looked at Marshall and handed the menu to Frances, “Miss Mason, let’s check the menu
together.”
Marshall paused and smiled with affection.
Clara gazed at Marshall and thought that he was really spoiling Katherine.
