Chapter 253 When Will You Announce our Divorce?

Marshall was sharp in business but slow in love.

He could also faintly feel the contest between Katherine and Clara.

But he somewhat failed to grasp the main points and could only guess.

Katherine has never liked Clara; it should have something to do with Mrs. Grant.

Well, you couldn’t blame Katherine for that.

Mrs. Grant liked to talk about Clara all the time and compared Katherine with Clara.

Everyone would be upset if treated so.

Marshall thought about what Clara said, and he felt that Clara had noticed Katherine's rejection of her,
so she had a reaction similar to self-defense.

People would be defensive when targeted.

But the problem was actually on Mrs. Grant.

Katherine asked Marshall and looked at him with a smile.

Marshall couldn’t say anything else, but only agree, "Clara is my business partner. She is welcomed,
but I thought that it would be better to eat outside."

He didn't want Lucas to go to their house.

Obviously, he didn’t like him.

Katherine said, "Yes, you are business partners. It's better to go outside to set up a social dinner."



She nodded and said, "I was inconsiderate."

Then she turned and looked at Lucas, "You could come by yourself then."

Marshall froze, he thought Katherine was deliberate, pretending that she didn't understand what he
meant.

Lucas smiled, "Okay."

They chatted for a while, and wanted to leave.

Grandma went to bed, and Mrs. Grant was upset.

So, Clara got up and left.

Katherine was bored since Clara was not here.

So, she said she wanted to go back.

In fact, Marshall didn't want to be here anymore.

They were not active talkers, and it could be foreseen that the dinner would be boring.

So, Marshall didn't say anything, and took Katherine to say goodbye to grandma.

Clara went to say goodbye to Mrs. Grant.

Mrs. Grant was in her room, obviously crying, her eyes were reddish.

She was sobbing while talking.

Clara didn’t know what to say when she saw Mrs. Grant.



Mrs. Grant was a lady in charge, if she didn’t know what was appropriate to say at the birthday party,
she just shouldn’t act like this when she was upset.

It was inappropriate to cry continuously.

Mrs. Grant let Clara in, and she looked upset, "Did Katherine leave?"

Although Clara held Mrs. Grant in contempt, she was still polite to Mrs. Grant, "She is leaving soon,
now she is going to say goodbye to grandma."

Mrs. Grant curled her lips, "What's the use of pretending to be the good one in front of grandma?"

Could the divorce be reversed?

Clara didn't want to say too much. She felt that she shouldn't have come at all.

She said she had to go back first, and she had something to do back at home.

Mrs. Grant didn't keep her, "Okay, you should go back first, I made a mistake today."

Mrs. Grant was indeed sorry, she lost face, and Clara was also embarrassed.

Regardless of what Clara was thinking in her mind, she would not show it.

She smiled, "It's okay, I didn't take it seriously."

Mrs. Grant came over and took Clara's hand, "Don't worry. You are the only candidate to be my
daughter-in-law."

Clara smiled and said nothing.

She then went downstairs, and found that Katherine and Marshall had already left.



The steward arranged a car for Clara.

Clara smiled and nodded, "Thank you."

She leaned back in the seat and let out a long sigh.

The driver was driving and didn't pay attention to her, Clara finally showed some impatience.

Her expression was dark and gloomy, and she was completely different from before.

Katherine kept Marshall from Clara, and left without a word.

Clara thought Katherine was naive.

The Henderson and the Grant had business transaction, and no one could stop Clara’s contact with
Marshall.

Clara's eyes were full of mockery.

Katherine leaned back in the seat, feeling a little sleepy, she yawned, and then closed her eyes.

When Marshall was waiting for the traffic light, he slowly stopped the car.

He turned and looked at Katherine. Katherine should have fallen asleep, she tilted her head, and
looked defenseless.

Marshall was entranced by Katherine, and he came to his senses when the green light came on and
the car behind honked to signal him.

Katherine didn't wake up all the way home.

Marshall drove the car into the yard and got off first.



He didn't enter the house but stood in the yard and smoked.

Katherine turned over and woke up all of a sudden.

She squinted her eyes and then remembered that she was in Marshall's car.

She got off and walked into the house while rubbing her eyes.

She didn’t even glance at Marshall when passing by him.

Marshall looked at Katherine with a cigarette in his mouth, he smiled and threw the cigarette butt and
followed her into the house.

Katherine went upstairs to her room, and threw herself on the bed to sleep.

Marshall also came into Katherine’s room and stood by the bed looking at Katherine.

It was afternoon, and the sunlight was not too strong, and the light in the room was soft.

Marshall went over, sitting next to Katherine, he touched her face.

She was fair-complexioned, soft and supple.

Marshall touched Katherine’s face, then seemed to realize that his behavior was not appropriate.

He quickly stood up and exit the room.

He ran as rapidly as his feet can move.

Katherine slowly opened her eyes when she heard Marshall closed the door.

She was awake when Marshall came in.



She was confused by Marshall’s action.

Marshall returned to his room and sat on the bed looking at his hand.

He didn’t know what was wrong with him.

He went to wash his face, and lay on the bed.

He couldn’t figure it out, so he stopped figuring it out.

He closed his eyes.

Katherine hadn't fallen asleep, and she tossed and turned feeling a little flustered.

She disliked this confusion.

There was only one thing that was different from what she expected so far in her life, which was to
marry Marshall.

She didn’t dare to imagine that she would marry Marshall.

When Marshall filed for divorce, she was prepared.

And now, she felt everything was out of control.

She waited and left the room.

She went to Marshall's room.

She knocked on the door, and Marshall's voice came from inside, "Come in."

She opened the door, but did not go in, she stood at the door.



Marshall sat on the bed, holding his phone, not knowing what he was reading.

Katherine said, "I have a question for you."

Marshall turned to look at her, "What's the matter?"

Katherine said, "Sam Thompson’s has passed. When will you announce our divorce?"
