Chapter 223 What Bold and tant Remarks!


    At midnight, the chandelier stopped shaking.


    Katherine heard that Marshall got off the bed. She then closed eyes and dozed off soon. However, she


    didn’t get a sound sleep. She woke up when Marshall lifted her to have a bath.


    She squinted at Marshall, whispering, “Marshall, do you have a little crush on me?”


    He didn’t say a word, but he did give a reply.


    Katherine curved the lips slowly, then said in a hardly inaudible voice, “I see.”


    She seemed to fall asleep, without any further reaction.


    Marshall got Katherine bathed, and put her on the bed. Then he took a bath. Katherine had fallen into a


    deep sleep when he went back to the bed.


    However, Marshall had no any trace of drowsiness. He went to the window, which was half open. He lit


    a cigarette, looking at the darkness through the half-opened window.


    He felt retaliative pleasure indistinctly. In fact, the chat history between Katherine and Hector


    displeased Marshall. After a crazy sex with Katherine, now the tight obstruction in his chest seemed to


    be dissolving.


    They had divorced from each other, and Hector bought her a ring, which was on her finger. So what?


    She still lied beside him now and they had had a sex while they were all sober.


    Soon, a stub end was left. Marshall threw the stub out of the window, and exhaled cigarette smoke.


    Closing the window, he returned to the bed, to see Katherine curl up tight in bed. He checked the


    wound on her leg. Just now, he had taken off the bandages after bathing her, so the wound was


    exposed to the air.


    It’s a small wound, and he was very careful while bathing her. The wound didn’t turn worse, so it should


    be healed.


    But Marshall still took the first-aid box, and patiently recovered her wound with clean bandage.


    After that, he lied down. The bedmp was turned off. On therge bed, the two slept on the different


    side, as if they had no connection with each other.

    It was the next noon when Katherine woke up. At that time, Marshall had left for work. Fainted, it took


    her a long time to sober up.


    Recallingst night, Katherine had no special feelings. She was sober, so was Marshall. Besides, it’s


    he who took the initiative.


    From her perspective, she was not the one to me if there must be someone to be responsible for


    last night.


    She had had sex with Marshall for many times after their divorce, so it didn’t matter about the one more


    sexst night. What mattered to her now was Marshall’s attitude to it.


    Was it true that men regarded love and sex as totally different things which had nothing to do with each


    other?


    If the answer was YES, it should be interesting.


    After ruminating for a while, Katherine got up and went to the bathroom in her pajamas.


    Standing in front of the hand sink, Katherine paused suddenly. Looking at the hickeys on her neck and


    corbone in the mirror, Katherine gritted her teeth.


    In this hot summer, how can she hide the hickeys? Wearing a high-cored shirt?


    Marshall! This bad guy, he must have done it deliberately.


    After washing up, she returned to her room and gave Marshall a call in anger.


    Marshall answered the call quickly. Before Katherine spoke, he said first, “Yesterday night, it’s you and


    me!”


    “I know it. I was very clear yesterday. I am calling to ask whether you are deliberate to leave hickeys on


    my neck.”


    Marshall eximed slightly, “How can I control myself at that situation?”


    Katherine blushed for a second.


    What bold and tant remarks!


    He had never said such words!


    Katherine stammered for a long time, finding no good words to reply him. Fortunately, he quickly


    started another topic. “You just got up?”


    “Yes.” Said Katherine, then she heard his voice, “You were exhaustedst night. You go and find


    something to eat.”


    With a shock, Katherine almost failed to recall the curse words on the tip of her tongue.


    A new personality of Marshall was releasedst night?


    Kathrine directly hung up, without saying a word.


    Standing there, she took deep breath for a second, then she threw the cell phone on the bed. Why did


    she feel so annoyed?


    Rubbing the hair, Katherine felt furious very much.


    In fact, she was a little hungry after the sexst night, but she was keener to have a sleep. So she went


    downstairs and cooked noodles for herself.


    She enjoyed her noodles while reading the financial news, which was about the formal cooperation


    between the Grant family and the Henderson family. A cooperation contract was signed today. Old Mr.


    Henderson went to the Grant Group andpleted the contract thing, as well as Elder Mr. Henderson


    and several senior managers.


    The financial news was not so popr, so there were fewments. However, the fewments


    were all around Marshall and ra. Thements mentioned that Marshall had been engaged to


    ra before, but he married Katherine in the end.


    Thements told onemon thing that ra was a better match to Marshall. From their points,


    they were a perfect match in terms of education and background.


    Somements also said that the both families should choose to cooperate with each other in spite of


    the subtle rtionship between Marshall and ra. Perhaps thedy and the gentleman still had sort


    of crush on each other.


    Katherine read thements while eating the noodles, snorting.


    If someone said that thesements had nothing to do with ra, Katherine definitely distrusted. All


    comments told one point was impossible unless someone paid for that.


    After reading allments, Katherine closed the news. Fortunately, this news didn’t attract a lot of


    readers, so it yed no role in leading public opinions.


    After the meal, she lingered in the living room, with mutinous feelings in her chest. But she cannot tell


    which one such feelings were against, Marshall or ra.


    After thinking for a while, she went upstairs and got changed. She changed a dress, with a high cor


    ofce. However, the hickeys on her neck were so eye-catching that they still can be seen though dimly


    covered by thece.


    Katherine then took a taxi to the Grant Group.


    When she arrived at thepany, it’s about time for lunch. The clerk behind the counter knew


    Katherine and greeted her with a smile. The clerk didn’t stop Katherine to the office. Obviously, this


    clerk didn’t read the news.


    Katherine went out of the elevator, singing, to Marshall’s office.


    Marshall was in the office, busy.


    Katherine pushed the door open, a little bit awkward. She coughed, “You are busy!”


    Stunned, Marshall asked, “Why youe?”


    Katherine made an excuse, “I have gone to the dessert store. It’s on my way.”


    Marshall put aside the document, “I am a little bit busy now. You first have a seat there.”


    Finishing, the door was opened again. Old Mr. Henderson and ra came in, followed with


    Khalid.
