Chapter 446 A Sneaky Man

Katherine dodged and sneered, “A lot of admirers? Yeah, Clara is one of them, right?”

Marshall suddenly stopped and his expression seemed to be frozen.

Clara was a taboo between them.

Upset, he sighed, “Trust me. There is nothing else between me and her. I didn’t take your feelings into
consideration. Perhaps that’s why you feel uneasy.”

He directed her face towards his and looked into her eyes, saying seriously, “But I promise it won’t
happen again.”

Katherine deemed this kind of promise worth no trust at all. It didn’t make sense for her.

She pushed Marshall away, “Well, action speaks louder than words.”

When she finished showering, Frances arrived with food.

Actually, Katherine wasn’t hungry for food. But as soon as she smelt it, her appetite was triggered.

Frances then said to Marshall, “Go downstairs to have your own food. I don’t want to bother myself
bringing yours.”

Unspoken, Marshall watched Katherine eating for a while. Then he turned around to go downstairs.

Frances followed over. Marshall turned to look at her, “Stay cautious at home. I just found a mini
camera on the door. Someone had sneaked in, I suppose.”

“Someone had sneaked in?” Frances was stunned, “sneaked in my room?”



Marshall wasn’t sure about that, “He might probably reach the parlor. I hire some people to set some
cameras in the house. Keep an eye on them in case someone fishy might sneaks in again. Stay alert
from now on.”

Frances nodded, “Okay, I got it. I didn’t expect them to be so cunning enough to sneak in.”

Marshall then responded with silence.

After having food, Katherine went downstairs with a tray. Meanwhile, Marshall had left.

Frances was standing at the door while fixing her eyes on it, on the surface of which there decorated
with sculpted reliefs with deep color. While the gap of those reliefs allowed enough space to fit in an
unnoticeable camera.

She beckoned Katherine to walk over and pointed at the gap, “See? They even dare to plant a camera
in. What were they thinking? Monitor our life?”

Katherine also had no idea what they were up for. She stood and watched, “You should stay alert. I can
tell those people are quite crazy. Hard to predict how horrible their next move will be.”

Frances nodded, “Don’t worry. We are all here to protect you.”

Katherine smiled. Actually, she never worried about her own safety.

Perhaps it was out of a kind of unawareness.

She showed no fear because she hadn’t experienced something like that.

She walked around in the room and then walked to the yard.

She stretched herself, but unable to do some strenuous move.



While stretching, she looked around. She suddenly recalled that one of those pictures was taken in the
yard.

Katherine then started to trace the direction where it was taken. The houses nearby were in a distance.
She scanned them through and approximately confirmed the direction.

After a while, a car parked in the yard and some people got off from it.

Frances walked out from the house to look at them. Then there came an elder among them to tell her
that Marshall hired them to set cameras.

Frances nodded and led them in.

As cameras were required both inside and outside the house, there came a team with a number of
workers to handle this time-consuming job.

Katherine watched them enter with a lot of tools. Then she asked the elder man, “Is everyone here the
employee of your company?”

That man paused and hurried to nod, “Yes, all of them.”

He added to explain that Marshall also knew about him. They were also in charge of the cameras set in
Marshall’s company.

He told Katherine to rest assure as the after-sales service would be guaranteed.

But Katherine was concerned with something else. She looked at those in the team and asked, “They
have all worked for a long time in your team? I mean all of them.”

That man nodded at first. But after pondering, he shook his head, “Oh, one of them is an exception.
One of our regular employees asked for a day off for some private matters. So I found a new one.”



Katherine paused and hurried to ask, “Which one?”

The project manager pointed at the one who was doing preparation for the installation.,“That one. Mr.
Grant asked us to complete all work as soon as possible. So I need more hands. Or I won’t accept a
naive.”

Katherine fixed her eyes on that man, who was opening a tool cabinet. He didn’t seem to be suspicious
as they all in same uniform and wore same hats.

After watching for a while, Katherine nodded, “Okay, I see.”

The man entered to supervise the team as Katherine didn’t intend to ask more.

Katherine had been gazing at the substitute, frowning.

Frances walked out after watching for a while. She stood beside Katherine, “What’s wrong? You look
weird.”

Katherine pointed at that substitute man to say, “I hope it's just that I'm too suspicious But that man is a
substitute in the team today. I wonder if there is something fishy about him. I have been watching him
for a while. He kept looking around with his thievish-looking eyes. I am worried if there’s something
wrong with him.”

Frances soon recalled that Marshall told her to stay alert of those who came to set cameras today in
case someone sneaked in.

She hurried to take out her phone and called Marshall.

Katherine still stayed alert while standing to watch them working.

As soon as the call was connected, Frances walked to the yard to tell Marshall the situation.



Marshall soon turned to be serious, “Stay and watch. I will return soon.”

Frances nodded and told him to rest assure as there were a lot people here. So nothing unexpected
might happen, she reckoned.

Marshall didn’t answer. He just hung up the phone.

Frances took a deep breath and walked over to stand still beside Katherine.

As there were a lot of people working in the house, it was indeed a nice chance to do something fishy
while everyone was busy.

Katherine then huffed and said with low voice, “That man notices that I am watching him.”

Frances was surprised, “How? He should be working attentively.”

That was the point. As all of them were busy working, how did that man notice her gaze.

Katherine wrapped her own shoulders, “There’s something wrong with him.”

Frances sighed for her cautiousness, “You really stay alert. I didn’t even notice that I should ask such a
question.”

Katherine smiled. She did consider a lot because of her life since she was a kid.

Marshall soon arrived. And this time he came with Peter.

The car stopped at the gate and soon they got off.

Marshall walked over to stand beside Katherine, “Are you okay?”



Katherine told him she was fine. Then she raised her jaw to point at that man, “That’s him. He looked
quite slovenly at the beginning. But as he noticed I was watching, he behaves more attentively.”

Marshall looked over and found nothing wrong.

As he asked for cameras filming every corner in both floors, it took quite a lot of efforts to finish the job.

So with a lot of workers here, it looked a bit messy. If only simply scanning, no one could notice
anything fishy.

Peter watched for a while and entered.

Actually, there was a designer in the team, whose duty was to schedule the work process to save time.

Though he had got the structural map and also the design draft of the house, the actual plan was still
under adjustment.

Peter walked around the other workers. Then he walked over to the new man.

Actually, he looked normal while he was checking those tools and equipment laid out on the ground.

Peter smiled to ask, “Sir, how long will it take to finish the whole thing? Do you have an estimated time
of consumption?”
