Chapter 102 Playing Favors

When it was time to clock out, Marshall just left with Katherine and didn’t work overtime.

When they were in the car, Katherine smiled while wearing the seatbelt, “I remembered that you almost
worked late every day before. What happened?”

After freezing for a second, Marshall said, “There is a big project before. Now it’s all over.”

Katherine nodded.

Marshall pursed his lips and started driving.

But actually, he wasn’t entirely going home late for work before.

Maybe he just didn’t want to see Katherine from the bottom of his heart.

Katherine then took off her shoes comfortably and started humming songs with her legs crossed.

Marshall would occasionally glance at Katherine.

She was really laid back now and even would shake her body to the song beats.

Marshall let out a smile and stepped on the gas pedal.

There were not that many of car driving up the mountain, so Marshall didn’t hesitate on the car speed.
They got to the Grants mansion pretty quickly.

Katherine clutched at the seatbelt and turned to Marshall. Though she was frightened, Katherine still
managed a smile, “What happened? We’re practically flying! Are you this hungry to hurry home?”

Marshall didn’t respond and just pulled the car into the yard.

Katherine waited for the car to stop and got out of the car hastily.



She then took a deep breath, “If something had happened to us on the way, would it be counted as
work injury?”

Marshall turned to Katherine silently.

Katherine grinned and patted her mouth, “Well, forget it! I’m just blabbering. We would all be safe and
sound. You would lead a happy life with your sweet Clara and so will I with my lover.”

Marshall just ignored Katherine and headed to the main building.

Standing on the ground, Katherine curled her lips and then followed along.

What’s with the anger all of a sudden?

Old Mrs. Grant seemed to be chatting with Mrs. Grant in the living room.

Mrs. Grant was beaming with smiles and though Old Mrs. Grant wasn’t exactly laughing, she seemed
relaxed.

Katherine actually wasn’t willing to witness these kind of scenes.

She had seen too many of these before and she was the one to be singled out every time.

They two would just ignore her directly and left her awkward.

Marshall first entered the living room and greeted Old Mrs. Grant, “Hi, grandma.”

Then he turned to Mrs. Grant, “Mom, what are you two chatting about?”

Mr. Grant smiled, “Nothing really. It’s just that I went shopping with some of my friends and talked for a
while.”



Katherine stretched herself and just interrupted, “I’ll be upstairs. See you later.”

She was in a tank top and tight pants, so when she was relaxing herself, her tank top was lifted up
which revealed her tiny waist.

Mrs. Grant’s face immediately darkened. After Katherine was in her room, she complained, “what on
earth is she wearing? She went out with you today, right? She ought to be dressed elegantly when she
is with you. As Mrs. Grant, she would be laughed if she is seen dressed that way.”

Marshall smiled, “It looked pretty to me.”

It seemed casual and comfy.

What’s more, a lot of employees said that she looked young and fresh when she showed up in the
company for the first time today.

They also commented that she seemed down-to-earth in that outfit and no wonder that he would fall for
her.

“You don’t know a thing.” Mrs. Grant was displeased. “Since she is still Mrs. Grant, she should pay
attention to herself and dress properly when she is out.”

Marshall didn’t really pay heed to any other women before and simply found Katherine decent.

She did dress exquisitely before, but she seemed like that she was trapped in a doll suit.

Everything about her seemed to be programmed perfectly down to the last detail.

But it wasn’t right nor real.

She looked better this way now.



Old Mrs. Grant just put down her mug and said, “That is enough. As long as Marshall likes her, we
ought not to meddle in. Sometimes we just don’t understand the young people’s stuff nowadays.”

Mrs. Grant turned to Old Mrs. Grant in surprise.

Old Mrs. Grant would never take sides with Katherine before.

She then added, “You think that she is lovely?”

Marshall’s sight followed Katherine all along, “She seemed fine to me.”
