CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times

Chapter 392 A Daughter Like Her

Katherine called Margaret early in the morning and said she had to be somewhere, so she won’t come to the store.

Margaret was accustomed to Katharine’s ways of doing things, so she just replied yes.

After hesitating for a long time in the home, Katherine changed into a casual wear and went to the hospital.

Katherine actually was a bit hesitant when she registered in the hospital because she was unsure whether she should check her stomach or other parts.

Though Katherine was inclined to believe that she got another stomach troubles, she felt that she can’t just deliberately omit some things.

After debating for a while, she went to the gynecology department. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

She was a bit late to the hospital, so there was already a long line queuing up in front of her.

Katherine went to grab a seat and sat down in bewilderment.

There were actually lots of things that she can’t figure out and didn’t know how things could get to this point.

Katherine waited for a long time till the nurse called her number.

She went in and saw a masked young female doctor who asked her what’s the matter with her cold- facedly.

Katherine licked her lips and replied, “I’m feeling quite drowsy and revolting.”

The doctor glanced at her and immediately knew what kind of examinations she should get since she was in this department and describing this kind of syndromes.

So the doctor tapped on the computer and said, “Go get your blood tested and we’ll see whether or not you are pregnant.”

Katherine meant to add if she was feeling wrong since she suffered from stomach troubles for a long time and this could be induced by it.

But the doctor had already printed out the receipt.

So she just took back the words she was going to say.

It was about lunchtime when she went to the blood-sampling room, so there weren’t many people there.

After getting her blood drawn, she was notified that she would get the result in the afternoon. Absent- minded, she left the hospital and was definitely not in the mood to go to the store.

She walked for a while and in the end sat on a bus stop bench watching the passing traffic.

It would be a huge blow to her if she was really pregnant.

Well, she was in her safe period when they last did it and even if she was pregnant, she shouldn’t feel all the morning sicknesses so quickly.

She wasn’t supposed to feel this way till one month into the pregnancy judged from the plots she’d seen from the TV.

Katherine scratched her head and assumed that she’d thought too much.

She never had any contraception measures when she wasn’t divorced and didn’t get pregnant for one time, so she even doubted if she was fertile or nor.

So how could she get the jackpot for just one time?

Katherine felt she was about to freak out.

When it was near lunchtime, Marshall called her and said that he was in the store and wondered where did she go and if she was still having stomach troubles.

Bombarded by a string of questions, Katherine felt powerless to give answers.

So she let out a breath and pinched at her brow bridge, “I’m outside. There is no cab around.”

Marshall hurriedly asked, “Where are you? I’ll pick you up.”

Katherine then said her address and Marshall just hung up the phone after saying ok.

Putting away the phone, Katherine stroked her belly and felt a bit foggy.

After hanging up Katherine’s phone, Marshall bid goodbye to Margaret and was about to go out.

Margaret rushed forward, “Are you going to look for Katherine?”

“Yeah, she is in the hospital. I’m going to drive her home.”

Margaret pursed her lips, “Kathy has a boyfriend now. Is it okay if you go over there?”

Marshall paused, “Are you talking about Hector?”

“Right. He even showed off their love on stage. Katherine may get distressed by this and it would affect her relationship with Hector.”

Marshall sneered, “Hector? He is fooling himself and you guys.”

Margaret froze, “What do you mean?”

Marshall didn’t explain and just drove away.

Standing by the door, Margaret watched Marshall going away till he finally disappeared.

Distraught, the happiness that she had when Marshall came over had all gone away.

But Marshall didn’t care a bit what Margaret had said and just drove to the address that Katherine said.

She was sitting on a bench and looked rather sleepy with her head lowered when he arrived.

Marshall parked the car and walked towards her.

Katherine didn’t notice him and she was still drooping her head when he stopped in front of her.

Marshall looked at her for a while and instantly felt soft-hearted.

He really can’t handle her being so petite and quiet.

“Katherine.”

Katherine slowly looked up, “Marshall.”

She looked pretty weary and even patted her forehead, “Let’s go.”

Marshall let out a sigh and held her up and carried her into the car.

He was still feeling worried, “Are you okay? Let’s go to the hospital together and give you a full body check.”

Leaning against the car seat, Katherine replied, “I’ve already checked and the doctor said I just got a low blood pressure and low blood sugar.”

Katherine just threw around excuses.

Katherine pondered for a while and believed her.

He then drove Katherine home.

She looked pretty tired and just dozed off.

Marshall slowly stopped the car, got out, went around the car, and carried Katherine into the car.

Maybe it was just his misconception, but Marshall felt that Katherine had lost a lot of weight.

She was quite light-weight and seemed like that she wasn’t taking good care of herself these days.

After putting Katherine on the bed, she immediately tossed over and hugged the quilt into the sleep.

Standing by the bedside, Marshall beamed with smiles.

He suddenly had this image of Katherine sleeping together with a baby girl who was just as naughty as her. He would have no regret in life if it can really come true.

But this dream was too good to be true.

Marshall then checked the time and called Peter to let him send him files.

He really can’t leave Katherine this way.

Peter teased, “You’re at Katherine’s place? Well, boss. You finally got what your heart wants.”

“Stop the nonsense and send the files over.” Marshall was getting impatient.

Peter wasn’t afraid of Marshall now, for though he was beyond competent in work, he was really an idiot when it came to personal relationship.

When a man had shown his weak spot, the formidable aura around him would just fade away.

Marshall went downstairs after hanging up the phone.

Sitting on the couch, he logged into his email with his phone and read a few documents.

He suddenly got serious when something came to his mind.

Peter was pretty fast and directly entered since the door was open.

Marshall looked at him, “Follow up on Kyra and give me the latest update.”

Peter paused and then nodded.

He intended to joke with Marshall a bit, but they were both serious now.

“I got a line on this underground bank recently and learned that this bank was quite low-key as it never loaned out large sums of money. It seemed like they had a cap on the loan and nobody can exceed this limit no matter how capable he/she is. So I figured that this bank must have some deep secrets.”

Marshall pursed his lips and then nodded, “Look into it carefully.”
