It’s not until when the man asked her for her number that Katherine realized his purpose. She felt embarrassed and did not know how to refuse him. She never wanted a thing like this, especially on such occasion.
Peter had been making grimace at her.
She stuttered, and then looked up to find Marshall standing a few steps away. From the expression on his face, Katherine supposed that he had been here watching for a while. But she saw no signs of jealousy on his face.

Truth to be told, she did not plan to continue using this number anyway, so it doesn’t matter to give them out. The stranger put in her number and called right away. “This is my number, my name’s Smith.”
Katherine smiled and nodded, “I’ll call.”
