All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 598 There’s Hope

After Catherine left, Karl waited in the living room.

On a regular day at this hour, he would already be upstairs preparing for rest. Today, however, he sat in the living room with a spirited demeanor, and Simon came up to persuade him.

“Sir, it’s getting late. Let me help you upstairs!” Simon suggested.

Karl replied leisurely, “What’s the rush? They haven’t returned yet. Why are you in a hurry?”

Seeing Simon persisting, Karl became impatient. “You old man, what do you understand? Catherine and the others haven’t come back yet. Catherine is a sensible girl, unlike Branden. If she’s not coming back, she’ll let me know. If she doesn’t say anything, she’ll come back. I’m waiting for her!”

Simon complained quietly in his heart. People who didn’t know might think Karl was Catherine’s grandfather.

Never had he seen someone so caring for a future daughter-in-law. In Karl’s eyes, his grandson was like a weed, and the prospective daughter-in-law was the treasure. As for his son, he probably didn’t even rank as high as a weed!

Just as they finished chatting, they heard a car honk at the door.

Slapping his thigh in joy, Karl looked at Simon with satisfaction. “See, I told you. Catherine is a sensible child. She knows I’m waiting for her, so she’ll definitely come back.”

Simon quickly agreed and said with a smile, “Yes, you’re right. Miss Swann understands you the best!”

This struck a chord with Karl, and he nodded happily.

As Catherine entered the house with Branden, she noticed Karl sitting in the living room, and she was stunned for a moment. “Karl, why haven’t you rested yet?”
