CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 460 She Saw Them Clearly

Frances paused, rose to her feet and walked up to the window to have a look, but now she could see no one there.

Frances mumbled, "Maybe you were wrong. I don’t think that could be happening."

Katherine leaned back in the chair, thought for a moment and chimed in with her, "Probably, I guess. I just caught a glimpse of them, and I’m not sure. My brain doesn’t work well recently, and my eyes can’t see clearly."

But Frances still watched for a while before she came back to her seat.

The waitress served water to them. Katherine poured a glass for herself and Frances respectively and asked, "Mrs. Henderson and you must have had a good relationship before, I assume?"

Frances picked up the glass and replied after some consideration, "Yes, we did. I used to adore Clara, and was close to the Henderson family, so Mrs. Henderson was kind to me."

But she wasn’t now. Last time when they met in the shopping mall, the two exchanged glances a few times, and both of them were aware where they were at now.

As the tension between her and Katherine had been eased, Frances didn’t like Clara that much as before, and the Henderson family wasn’t happy with that.

Katherine rolled her eyes and looked out of the window. "Do you recognize Mrs. Henderson’s car?"

Frances suddenly realized something and answered her, "Of course I do."

Katherine chuckled. Now, she didn’t need to explain herself and Frances knew what she meant.

Frances gave a hard look at Katherine. "You wicked one… But so what if it was her? Why do you suddenly care about her so much?"

Katherine used her baby voice and begged, "Come on! Just go and have a look. When you come back, I’ll tell you why."

Frances threw another hard look at her, but still stood up and gathered her coat. "Alright, I’ll go and have a look. If I don’t do so, your ex-husband will get angry at me."

Well, you don’t have to mention him at this moment. Katherine thought to herself.

Frances went out of the private room as Katherine walked up to the window. Before long, she saw Frances walking out of the entrance.

She checked the restaurant’s parking lot first, and then went across the street. She walked through the seafood restaurant’s parking lot, paused, and did it again.

Then she looked up at Katherine, spreading her hands.

Katherine knew what Frances meant immediately. She waved at her, asking her to come back.

Just as Frances went back to the lobby, Katherine saw someone coming out of the seafood restaurant across from her.

She paused, took out her phone and started recording.

It was indeed Mrs. Henderson. She didn’t wear anything to cover her face, but dressed down a lot.

Mrs. Henderson came out alone. She looked around first before walking away in one direction.

Besides Mrs. Henderson, Katherine was also watching the entrance of the seafood restaurant at the same time.

It was when Mrs. Henderson pulled away that a man came out of the entrance.

Katherine didn’t remember what that man’s face looked like just now, but remembered what he was wearing.

It was exactly the same man.

She recorded the man’s every move.

Just like Mrs. Henderson, after he came out of the restaurant, the man stood at the entrance, looked around for a while and gathered his coat, walking away in another direction.

It took Frances some time to get back to the private room, and she looked upset.

Katherine smiled, "Did you see them?"

Frances replied, "I did. It was exactly her, but the car she was driving isn’t the usual one."

Katherine nodded. "Did you see the man coming out later?"

Frances let out a sigh. "I did. There was only one man coming out of the restaurant after her."

Katherine’s lips curved into a smirk. "Alright, let’s eat first."

All the dishes were served, but the two hardly talked while eating.

Obviously, Frances was not in the mood for eating, while Katherine was also pondering over something.

Now Katherine realized she had offended not only Clara, but also the whole Henderson family. From Old Mr. Henderson to Jakub Henderson, she had displeased all of them. Therefore, the other people besides Clara could also have done something to her.

Suddenly, Katherine saw the light, because she had already figured out who her enemies were.

After the meal, Frances and Katherine went straight back home.

Feeling depressed, Frances went back to her room.

Meanwhile, Katherine was sitting on the couch in the living room. In a light mood, she watched the variety show for some time and some TV drama for a little while before going to bed.

Frances didn’t go to bed in her room. She simply sat on the bed, her mind in a turmoil.

It was true that she had used to be a bad-tempered and horrible woman before, but she didn’t think she had a bad nature. When she was on good terms with Clara and the Henderson family, her love for them was sincere, and she was kind to them without reservation.

Now she saw the true color of the Henderson family, and she felt devastated.

When Mrs. Henderson and that man came out of the seafood restaurant one after the other today, Frances was at the entrance of the restaurant and saw them clearly.

That man looked quite young.

Frances knew Mrs. Henderson. Since she met such a man so stealthily, he couldn’t be her secret lover, but she must be making a deal with him.

As for what the deal was exactly, Frances already got an answer thinking of what had happened to Katherine lately.

Frances was disappointed at Clara before, but now, she was disappointed at the whole Henderson family. She had used to be so blind that she became so emotionally involved with that family.

Having been in a sulk for some time, Frances took out her phone.

She was unable to hold herself back and sent a text message to Marshall. She didn’t tell him all, but only told him what she had seen today.

Marshall was busy and didn’t reply to her at first, but ten minutes later, he called back.

Apparently, he was astonished. "You saw Mrs. Henderson? With a young man?"

Frances breathed a sigh. "Yeah, they were acting stealthily. I’m not sure about it, but I hope you’ll be on the alert. I know Mrs. Henderson. She holds grudges. As for Katherine…"

She paused, not knowing how to put it. Then she hemmed and hawed before going on, "Anyway, she doesn’t think highly of Katherine. You need to be more careful." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Marshall sighed, "I see. No wonder…"

Frances didn’t know what he meant, but the more she thought about it, the more worried she became.

Back when Katherine and Marshall hadn’t got divorced, Mrs. Henderson was burning with hatred when it comes to Katherine. She hated Katherine even more than Frances did. Therefore, Frances dreaded to think what she would do to Katherine now.

Since Marshall still had business to attend to, he only told Frances to rest assured, saying that he would take care of Katherine, and hung up.

Frances calmed herself down before she went out of the room.

Just as she went down to the living room, Darcie told her Katherine had gone to bed happily.

Frances was quite impressed by her psychological quality. It seemed that she didn’t really take anything to heart, and she was cool with everything.

But it was also a great relief to know Katherine had a big heart.

Frances asked Darcie what they would eat for dinner tonight, and then went to the courtyard. She stayed there until Marshall got home.

Marshall drove in and smiled as he got off the car. "Looking at that straight face, I almost thought you were fighting with Katherine again."

Hearing that, Frances chuckled. "Your wife is pregnant now, and I won’t fight with her at this point of time."

Marshall came up to Frances, draped his arm around her shoulders and walked into the house. "When I left my office just now, dad asked me why I was in a hurry. I told him you weren’t well. He may come later, I guess."
