Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 140

"I thought you'd like it. It's supposed to help you to sleep better, so I brought you some." Catherine handed the bag to Pippa and said, "Please dissolve it in water for Aubree to drink every night. Thank you."

"Yes, Ms. Collins," Pippa said with a impassive face, without giving her another look.

Pippa thought of Ms. Collins as an intruder of Mr. and Mrs. Marsh's marriage. The couple had kids together.

Why did she keep trying to go between them?

Then Catherine sat down on the sofa as Aubree did.

"Catherine, would you stay for lunch?" said Aubree secretively, holding her hands, "Ivan's here too."

The woman smiled. "I knew that. I've got something here for him to sign."

"He'll be staying here for ten days," said the old lady delightedly, "It's been like ages since the last time he stayed here with me. Please drop by more often when you have time, Catherine." There bore many connotations in her eyes as she said that.

Then she said to the butler. "Jordan, Ms. Collins will have lunch here, so bring me the menu."

"Yes, ma'am."

Catherine was ecstatic, but she acted calm and humble, "Wouldn't that be too much trouble?"

"Of course not! We are going to be family sooner or later." Aubree held her hand and gave it a pat, asking smilingly, "You and Ivan haven't got the time to hang out for a long while, right? It's a great chance for you two to have some private time together."

Was Jennifer there too?

In order to get a definite answer, she asked her directly, "Is Jennifer here?"

"She's not here." Aubree's face and tone turned unkind. "I told her that she's not welcomed here."

So it meant that Jennifer wouldn't see Ivan for ten days?

The thought was as sweet as honey to Catherine.

The two caught up with each other downstairs for some while.

Aubree took a look at the files in her hand and said to her, "You can go upstairs to see Ivan. He's working there."

"OK." She stood up gracefully and gave the old lady a polite bow, "I'm going now."

"Go, please."
