Chapter 108 Something She Shouldn'T Have Heard
In the Emerald Bay...
Jennifer hadn't eaten dinner, but she wasn't hungry at all. She sat frozen in front of the master
bedroom's floor-to-ceiling window, waiting for Ivan to return.
But the yard was still quiet, and it seemed Ivan wouldn't come back tonight.
Jennifer held her phone hesitantly.
She wondered whether she could call Ivan.
But she was afraid that Ivan didn't answer her phone.
What if Ivan said something bitter on the phone?
Thinking of his cold look, Jennifer gave up.
In the main building of the Marsh Group, Ivan was also hesitant.
He held his phone in his hand, glancing at the screen every now and then. He was looking forward to
Jennifer's call.
Jennifer had done something wrong, which irritated Ivan and disgraced the Marsh family, but she didn't
even call over to apologize.
It seemed Jennifer didn't care at all whether Ivan would come back.
Catherine sat not far away, but she didn't realize that Ivan was thinking about Jennifer.
Instead, Catherine was excited that Ivan didn't drive her out this time.
Catherine had a lot of things to tell Ivan, so she didn't want to miss the chance.
"Ivan, are you having a happy life?" Catherine held her coffee cup and looked at Ivan worriedly,
"Everyone looks up to you and envies you, but only I know that you are actually not happy, right?"
Ivan looked back at her.
Catherine pursed her lips. "Because neither was I."
In Emerald Bay, the fragrance of roses surged outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Jennifer got up and knocked on the door of the children's room, "Kids, are you asleep?"
"No, please come in."
Jennifer pushed open the door and saw that Alfie and Diana were sitting in the toy tree like two
monkeys!
"Mommy!"
Alfie and Diana took the slide down.
"What's wrong, Mommy?" Alfie and Diana both ran to Jennifer.
Jennifer reached out and stroked their heads. "Give your dad a call and help me find out where he is."
"Okay."
Alfie got what Jennifer meant at once. He took out his phone and dialed Ivan's number.
Ivan was still waiting in his office.
When the phone rang, his palm trembled and he got excited
But Ivan looked at the screen, he was disappointed that it was not from Jennifer.
Seeing that it was from Alfie, Ivan quickly answered it, "Alfie."
"Daddy, where are you now?" Alfie asked in a small voice, "Are you coming back tonight?"
"I'm doing some work in my office. What's up?"
"Nothing. I'm just asking. Good night."
"Then you and Diana had better go to bed early."
After Alfie hung up the phone, Jennifer gestured toward the children. "Thank you." Then she hurriedly
went downstairs.
She took the car key from Jordan.
"Mrs. Marsh, where are you going? It's so late! You can call the driver!"
"No need, Jordan." Jennifer pulled open the car door and sat in the driver's seat. "I'm going to find
Ivan!" After saying that, she started the car and left.
Jordan was left frozen in the cold wind!
He thought both Jennifer and Ivan were mad.
Ivan sat before the desk carved with vintage floral patterns. He was an experienced businessman, so
he could put on a poker face at will.
Catherine was immersed in her memories, and she was deeply moved by what she said.
"Ivan, I've worked hard over the years, and I'm sure you've seen it." Catherine said emotionally, "I am
not so generous to wish you a happy life with Jennifer. I just want to have a happy life with you."
Ivan turned his eyes to Catherine with a poker face.
"You know what?" Catherine said earnestly, "I did want to spend the rest of my life with you!"
Ivan looked at Catherine meaningfully, "You're overthinking it."
After parking the car, Jennifer got out, quickly went into the lobby, and took the elevator upstairs. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
When Jennifer arrived at the door of Ivan's office, Catherine said,
"I'm so tired of all this. I want nothing but you."
Catherine laughed. "I know you don't love Jennifer, but it's too impulsive of you to tether her for the
sake of the children."
