    Chapter 1797


    Ka took a breath before looking at Marshall. “Mr. Moore, your question is quite intrusive.”


    “Sorry,” He apologized in a warm and clear voice. "But I can''t ask you for a favor if you have a


    boyfriend.


    Ka was puzzled, "How so?”


    “I''m afraid my mom might catch on." This did not clear things up for Ka. "Can you be more explicit?”


    Marshall sighed. "My family is pressuring me to get married. My mom keeps introducing potential


    matches to me all the time. I can''t avoid it. I thought of finding someone to deal with the issue


    temporarily. If she sees me with someone, she might ease up on the pressure.”


    Ka blinked in disbelief. After a while, she said, "You want me to assist you in fending off blind


    dates?”


    Marshall looked at her and asked, "Is that okay?"


    Ka didn''t speak. She knew that Marshall liked Ste. '' Keegan has amnesia now. It''s the perfect


    opportunity to make a move, yet Marshall has done nothing to pursue her.’


    After some contemtion, Ka thought of the message she saw in her group chat this morning about


    Ste moving back to Keegan''s ce to assist in recovering his memory.


    ‘Keegan will definitely fall for Ste again. Love doesn''t simply vanish because of amnesia, especially if


    they''re now living under the same roof. But is this why Marshall gave up on courting Ste?’


    Ka had heard from Mark that the Moore family was strict. She wondered if the Moores’ discerning


    nature regarding daughters-inw affected Marshall''s rtionship status. ‘Did they stop Marshall from


    pursuing Ste because she was a divorcee?’


    It was then that Ka realized that her dad was still quite reasonable. "As long as you like him, I''m


    willing to ept him into the family no matter the circumstances."


    ‘Does he not think I can find someone good?’ Ka sighed. She looked at Marshall, "How do you want


    me to help? Do you want me to pretend to be your girlfriend or something?”


    Marshall shook his head. "We just have to be in touch and asionally have a meal together."


    Ka realized that Marshall wanted to create an illusion for his family that they might be a potential


    match. He wanted them to have an undefined romantic connection.

    After a moment of thought, she said, “Mr. Moore, I want to get married someday. Being in an undefined


    rtionship with you would harm my reputation. What do I do if my potential suitors reject me because


    of this?”


    Marshall froze and lowered his eyes, "Sorry. I didn''t consider that.”


    "You really didn''t,” Ka said in disdain. "If you want to be in an undefined rtionship with me, you


    should be the one who takes initiative.”


    Marshall did notprehend what she meant. Ka exined slowly, "In other words, you''re the one


    who asked me out today. Does that make it clear?”


    Marshall then understood that Ka didn''t want to be known as the person who pursued him. He must


    be the one who courted her.


    Thinking about it, he nodded, "Yes. I''m the one who asked you out.” After a while, he asked, "So, Ms.


    Wilson, what do you want in return?"


    Evidently, Marshall saw this as a transaction. Ka didn''t put much thought into it. There are plenty of


    men in the world, and she wouldn''t be interested in a man who was in love with another woman.


    However, she was still a little hurt by his question.


    “Assisting my friend in winning thiswsuit means a lot. I assure you, I''ll repay the favor by helping


    you.”


    Marshall nodded and said, "You''ve got a strong character, Ms. Wilson."


    Ka noticed how formal he was being and suddenly wanted to tease him.
