After that, Marshall remained silent. Katherine knew that he hated noise so she chose to sit aside and wait patiently. It seemed that nothing could ever stop Marshall's pace when he was engaged in business. One minute he called up his subordinates to pack up files for him and the next he just went out and assigned work to his men — just like the many times he had done before, he again ignored the existence of Katherine. After sitting on the sofa for a while, she began to yawn. There was actually a break room in Marshall's office. Occasionally, he would go inside and take a nap.

He then stooped down and tidied it up. s he was about to stand up, Katherine spoke out. Her voice was a little vague, and thus one could hardly tell whether she was awake or not.

His life would be totally different if she had never appeared: he would have gotten married to Clara, a woman that he thought would be a good enough wife for him even though their relationship had not been intimate enough. What was more, his mother liked her, which meant there was no need for him to worry about the in-law relationship between them in the future. If Katherine had never appeared, his marriage with Clara would have been exceptionally successful and his child

he just didn't want to do anything by the moment. He leaned back in his chair, leaving everything behind and freeing his mind. After a few seconds, his phone dinged. Someone had messaged him.
