CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 16 We’re Adults

Peter was stunned, and looked sideways at Katherine and said, “What's the matter, are you jealous?”

He liked gossiping, so as he approached, “In fact, to be honest, you still can't get over my boss, don’t you? If that’s the case, I can...”

“Are you kidding me?” Katherine snickered and looked at Peter with a mocking look, “As you can see, I have so many followers. He isn’t my one and only choice.”

Peter was surprised to hear that, “I’m afraid my boss will feel uncomfortable if he hears about this.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Katherine said slowly, “I don’t care.”

Katherine and Peter slowly walked to the entrance of the hotel just as staffs were carrying back all tables and chairs. They stopped and gave way to them.

Peter waited for a while and couldn’t help but said, “But you really should be careful about the man who’s trying to do everything to get your attention, he must be up to something.”

Katherine thought for a while and turned to Peter, “Then I should reject any men who are trying to please me, right?”

Peter frowned, but then Katherine spoke again, “And your seem serious boss, had he been nice to me?”

Peter was stunned and surprised, “Why are you being so mean to your ex-husband? Do you have bias to him?|”

Katherine snorted, “No, I don’t.”

It’s just that the thought of this person made her uncomfortable.

It wasn’t hate, but more like a pain in the ass.

Peter sighed, “A girl like you must be careful, look those men around you, you’re easy to get hurt, and I’m serious.”

“Even if I get hurt, it’s my choice. I just wanna be happy.” Katherine hugged her shoulders and was a little lazy.

Peter blinked.

Katherine ignored him and went on to say, “We’re all adults, I know what I’m doing.”

Peter still kept blinking.

Katherine raised her eyebrows, “What? You have dust in your eyes?”

Peter opened his mouth, but before the words came out, Katherine heard a very familiar voice coming from behind her, “Peter, why don’t you answer my calls?”

Katherine stood there silently for a long time before turning around.

Marshall was standing just a few steps away from her, wearing expression the same as usual and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

Katherine didn’t know if he heard what she just said.

She calmly turned back to looked at Peter, “Well, since you got your business, excuse me then.”

Without waiting for Peter to say anything, she turned around and strutted towards the hotel.

And she didn’t look sideways at Marshall as she passed by.

Marshall was standing over there alone, and the woman who was with him before was nowhere to be found.

When the two people passed each other, Marshall turned his head and looked at Katherine.

The light on the side of the hotel was bright enough to allow Marshall to see Katherine’s slightly pale face. She had light makeup, which made her look clean. With her hair blown by the wind breeze, her looked weak.

In fact, Marshall never saw Katherine like this. He did not spend much time with Katherine in the past, and most of the time, she was quiet, obedient and even a little ingratiating to him. He didn't really like Katherine in that way.

Marshall withdrew his gaze and went over towards Peter.

While Katherine went straight to her room.

She was still a little uncomfortable and felt a bit like throwing up.

She has always had a stomach problem for her life was a bit hard in the past. Therefore tummy bug troubled her for years.

Katherine went to the window and looked down.

Marshall and Peter were still at the gate, talking, and Marshall suddenly turned his head and looked over right at her.

Katherine froze, and it’s too late to avoid, so she simply stood there.

Marshall stared at her for a while, and surprisingly, he looked very concentrated.
