Marrying

Upon hearing the words, Caleb was taken aback with a jolt of shock. 

Turning around, he saw Ashley approaching, and he was left utterly speechless, his facial expression as colorful as a canvas 

“How… how did you come here?” he stammered. 

Ashley was so furious that her eyes seemed ready to pop out of their sockets. She pointed at Caleb and let out a string of curses. “If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have known you were with this bitch. This is the big boss you mentioned? Is this how you negotiate?” 

Ashley stepped forward as if to strike, but Caleb caught her arm. Are you out of your mind?” 

“You’re the one who’s out of your mind. Caleb, how could you do this to me?” 

Katherine, standing by, was dumbfounded. “Caleb, who is she?” 

“Uh…” Caleb mumbled incoherently, while Ashley stepped forward and hugged his arm. Tm his girlfriend. 

Caleb was horrified and immediately shook off her grip. “Katherine, listen to me. She’s not.” 

“How can I not be? I’ve divorced for you, yet you still treat me like an outsider? I am your girlfriend.” 

Turning to Katherine, she said, “Young lady, Caleb is mine. You’re so young and yet you’re the mistress, meddling in someone else’s relationship. Have you no shame? 

Upon hearing this, Katherine shot up from her seat. “Caleb, you just said you didn’t have a girlfriend, and here you are, deceiving me again. Bastard, stay away from me.” 

She raised her hand and slapped Caleb hard, then turned and left. 

Caleb, desperate, his face turning pale with anxiety, didn’t care about the pain and hurried to chase after Katherine. “Katherine, listen to me. It’s not like that…” 

“Stop right there.” Ashley pulled him back forcefully. “You’re not going anywhere. Caleb, you were just being all caring toward me, and now you’re hugging some bitch. Have you no shame at all!” 

Moreover, Ashley felt that the girl looked familiar, and after pondering for a while, she finally remembered. The girl is a friend of Valerie’s?‘ she wondered. 

The last time they met, she had a feeling that something was off about that girl. She seemed like a bitch, and now it turned out she really was one, seducing her boyfriend right under her nose. 

Ashley was so angry that she stubbornly held onto Caleb, and as Caleb saw Katherine getting further away and out of reach, he became frantic and pushed her aside forcefully. 

“Ashley, what the hell are you doing? Are you crazy? Do you have any idea who she is? All the efforts made today have gone to waste. That was Katherine, the genuine heiress of the Santos Croup. 

Caleb had missed out on Katherine once before, but fate seemed to have destined him to get rich, giving him a second chance, only to have it ruined by Ashley 

Ashley, pushed to the ground, was seething with anger, her heart and lungs aching with rage. “Caleb, you dare to push me. Give me my money back.” 

“What money of mine? I’ve got no money, but I’ve got a life to give. Besides, you did it willingly, not forced by me. Look at yourself. Who do you think you are? An old woman still dreaming of marrying into a wealthy family? Huh!”

Ashley was so despised by hign that she lunged at him to fight, and Caleb slapped her back. “Get out of here” 

He didn’t bother with Ashley any longer, rushing out to call Katherine, but she didn’t respond to him at all, making hirn sweat profusely. 

But in fact, Katherine hadn’t gone far. 

An inconspicuous black car was parked by the roadside, with Katherine, Valerie, and Julian all inside. Katherine, sitting in the car, saw this scene and couldn’t help but sneer. “Valerie, look at him, how despicable.” 

Valerie patted her hand. “It’s okay. They will tear each other apar, and Caleb won’t give up on you,” 

“Okay,” 

a 

Katherine nodded and took out the video of Caleb barking like log in the restaurant just now to watch again, feeling a sense of relief, the gloom of the past month or so finally dissipating a lot. 

Thinking of how Julian had helped her just now, she quickly said to Julian, “Thank you, Julian.” 

Julian had already changed back to his normal clothes, “No problem, you two girls, be careful.” 

“Hey, I know” Katherine smiled with her eyes narrowed. “Julian, you looked pretty good in a suit just now. You had the look of a business elite and could try it more often.” 

Julian was both amused and helpless. “I run a fruit shop, and my work clothes are always dirty. Wearing a suit would be such 

a waste.” 

“No, it wouldn’t be…” 

Katherine really felt this way because Julian, who usually worked outdoors, had skin that was darker and a bit rougher than most people’s. Coupled with his preference for loose clothes for convenience at work, he appeared to be both short and rough. 

But when he put on formal wear, it was revealed that he actually had a good figure. The firm muscle lines of his arms under the shirt were the results of years of hard work. 

Moreover, although his family had fallen apart recently, with no one to oppress him, his spirit seemed to have improved a 

lot. 

As they chatted, Katherine’s phone ad already received dozens of calls. 

Caleb also sent messages, explaining that he had no relationship with Ashley. It was all that woman, Ashley, who insisted on clinging to him. 

Dozens of voice messages were all apologies, and he even transferred 2 thousand dollars to her. 

Valerie, who was on the side, raised her eyebrows and said, “After teasing Caleb for so long, the time was about right. Proceed according to the plan, and make another date with him. Get him to drive Ashley away!* 

Katherine nodded and after ignoring him for half an hour, she finally answered the call. 

Hello…” she said leisurely. 

In stark contrast to her, the person on the other end of the phone was impatient. “Katherine! You finally answered. I know you’re angry, but I have no relationship with her. Please believe me. 

Caleb hastily explained their relationship, saying that it was only because his career was obstructed at the beginning, and she invested, so they had a few meals together. But he didn’t expect Ashley to stick to him, entangling him, and even divorced for him. It was like chewing gum, which couldn’t be shaken off. 

The implication was that he was too charming 

Katherine sneered on the other end of the phone and wondered Why is he so narcissistic? He had clearly slept with Ashley. and now he said they were partners, and they partnered to the bed.” 

Caleb said a lot, and seeing that Katherine didn’t respond, he couldn’t help but get anxious. “Katherine, forgive really sorry. 1 have no relationship with her, please see me, okay? 

Katherine feigned belief. “So that’s how it is…” 

Seeing her attitude soften, Caleb let out a sigh of relief. “Katherine, it’s all the truth. I only consider her a friend.” 

1. me. I’m 

“Alright, I don’t actually object to a man having a confidante, but Caleb… this woman is too emotionally unstable, and she’s clinging to you like this. If your career takes off in the future, she will definitely become a hindrance to you.” 

Caleb’s heart sank as he thought to himself, ‘Indeed! If Ashley really makes a scene, the consequences will be unimaginable.” Then, he added, “You’re right, Katherine. You think of everything 

“That’s why I never want to see her again, to ensure she can’t come back to Kranson City to bother us. You figure out a way ties with her and stop all contact.” Katherine wanted Caleb to get rid of Ashley. Ashley had cheated on Julian, and now she was being cheated on herself. There was no better punishment for Ashley than this. 

Caleb thought for a moment, then was delighted. “Okay, I promise you. Don’t worry. Give me time, and I will definitely be 

able to do it.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Caleb agreed without hesitation. After hanging up the phone, he took a deep breath. As long as he could be with Katherine, he would never have to worry about living a poor life again. What was the tens of thousands of dollars or so that Ashley had given 

him? Thinking about how she almost ruined his wealth and honor, Caleb determined to do so. No one could not blame him for being ruthless 

Caleb directly took out his phone and made a call, speaking sininerly. “Calvert, we’ll meet at the usual time and place… yes, there’s good stuff.” 

What Caleb was thinking was to solve the problem once and for all. 

As long as he sold Ashley out, she would never be able to come tuck
