CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 502 Bad Mood

Affected by bad mood, Kyle didn’t suggest for poker game this time though there were three of us.

Frances sat next to Kyle and said in surprise, “Kyle, why don’t you ask for poker game today? That really surprised me.”

Kyle let out a breath, “I don’t feel like Luck Fairy is on my side today. And I don’t wanna get beat out of shit.”

Frances smiled, “Nothing will change even if you are with Luck Fairy.”

Kyle only responded with silence, which surprised Frances even more.

She knew that Kyle never showed silence when facing provocative words.

He would be likely to bomb those with language who dared to challenge him.

He looked so weird today!

Frances stared at him, looking confused. But she held back her question.

As Kyle was in a bad mood, Katherine decided to have a talk with Frances alone about that man with whom she was going to have a blind date.

Frances looked a bit uneasy, “Come no, that’s not a date. It’s just a try to make friend with him.”

Katherine smiled, “Hey, both of you are grown enough to tell what it actually is even if it’s covered up as a make-friend meet. What if that guy deems it a date even though you don’t? What if he deems that your choice to hang out with him signals your favor for him? What are you gonna do then?”

Frances let out a breath, “I have made it clear to him yesterday. I said it was a decision of my mom, not mine. He said he totally understood my situation. So he suggested we start with being friends.”

Katherine smiled while shaking her head, “Huh, that guy sounded like a sophisticated type. You will fall into his trap if you spend time with him for long, I reckon.”

Frances had been simple-minded. But Katherine could tell that guy must be quite sophisticated according to his action.

So Frances would be likely to be taken advantage of.

But Frances didn’t seem to worry, “It’s okay. After all, I don’t plan to spend much time with him. I did so just to fudge my mom.”

Then Frances briefly introduced that guy.

He was actually a divorced man as well. His ex-wife married a foreigner with his kid and they both moved oversea.

He had been single for years. Though he was also a successful businessman, he still appeared to be less competitive when compared to Khalid.

After all, that man started from nothing while Khalid owned a family business developed for generations.

But that man was indeed an excellent one among those at the same age.

Katherine nodded, “Well, he sounds good.”

Frances smiled, “We won’t be in a relationship even though he sounds good.”

He was a gentle and decent man, but Frances still found something missing from him.

That man was not her type.

After staying in the club for a while, Frances heard her own phone ringing.

It was a call from that man, who asked where she was so as to pick her up.

Katherine patted on her shoulder and pointed at herself.

Frances paused and soon nodded. Then she told him that she was hanging out with a friend, who would like to go with them together.

Katherine approached and heard that man pause out of surprise.

But it only lasted for a second. Then he said he was fine with that and he was coming soon.

When the call was ended, Katherine looked at Kyle, “Hey, Kyle, just take a sleep. You don’t look good today. I bet you didn’t sleep yesterday. I gotta go now.”

Kyle nodded. He did feel exhausted today.

He didn’t sleep much last night. What was worse, he got punched in the morning. He couldn’t even regain his soberness till now.

Dizziness still haunted his brain.

Frances stared at him for a while. She also noticed that he looked weird.

Kyle appeared to be much different from usual. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

After waiting for a while, they saw that man arrived in a car.

Katherine walked to the gate with Frances. Before they left, Katherine took a look at Kyle, “Kyle, let go of the mess. You will find everything well after a sleep.”

Kyle nodded, “Alright, I know. See you. I wanna stay alone.”

Then both Katherine and Frances walked to the car, the window of which was lowered down. Katherine soon saw the man inside.

He, a middle-aged man with unique charm, looked relatively good and a bit younger than Khalid.

That man paused out of surprise when seeing Katherine.

He thought the friend mentioned by Frances should be a lady with similar age as hers. But it appeared to be such a young one.

Katherine got into the car with Frances. Then she greeted, “Hello.”

The man smiled, “Hi, you really surprise me. I didn’t expect you to be so young.”

Katherine reached out her arms to wrap around Frances’s, “Miss Mason still stays young from the bottom of her heart. So I love to hang out with her.”

The man just smiled and then started to drive.

After a while, Katherine took out her phone to text Marshall.

Obviously, the blind date had also went beyond Marshall’s expectation. He texted back to ask if it was true.

Katherine texted, ‘I am riding right in his car! How am I gonna lie about that?’

A few minutes later, Marshall replied, ‘Alright, I know it.’

Feeling amused, Katherine could tell that Marshall knew what she meant.

She put down her phone and turned to look at Frances.

Of course, she could see from Frances’s face that she looked a fish out of water.

Apparently, she found herself uneasy when facing that man.

The man drove to a furniture center, where there were shops selling curtains along the road.

The man smiled as he got off the car, “Picking curtains is not my forte. So I wanna ask for your advice to get a nice one.”

Katherine nodded. But she couldn’t tell if it was just part of his pick-up tactics, “Okay, let’s go for a look. But I don’t know the style inside your house. It would be better to fit the decoration.”

The man hurried to take out his phone and showed us the pictures of his house, from which Katherine could tell that he should be rich and wealthy. The decoration inside his house looked elaborated.

No wonder he managed to gain the favor from Frances’s mom.

Picking curtains wasn’t a hard nut to crack. Both Katherine and Frances were walking around in the shop while the man was following beside.

That man appeared to be quite good-natured. When Katherine and Frances were talking, he stood beside to share his thoughts.

Undoubtedly, he seemed to be a man with nice life style.

Soon, time had passed as they walked around those shops.

Katherine checked the time and then walked aside to make a call to Marshall, asking if he wanna have lunch together.

Of course, Marshall could tell what she was up for.

He smiled and agreed. Then he asked for the location.

Katherine soon noticed him.

Before they hung up the phone, Marshall said, “I will go with my dad.”

Katherine almost laughed out. She nodded, “Brilliant!”

As the call ended, she turned around to look at Frances and that man.

As they stood there together to pick curtains, they did look like couple.

She couldn’t help wondering what Khalid would look like if he saw all these.

She couldn’t wait to see his arrival later.
