Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 142

Diana pointed at the seat over there, "Miss, you can sit there. Alfie and I want to sit next to daddy."

"Of course." Catherine then stood up, "Sorry. I didn't think this through." She couldn't compete with these children especially when Aubree liked them.

She had to treat them well. After all, she would be their stepmom.

Alfie said to Diana, "Diana, you sit here. I'll hold you."

Ivan then helped Diana sit on the chair.

"Thanks, daddy." Diana looked very sweet in her Lolita dress.

Alfie sat on the other side next to Ivan. This lunch was not that pleasant for Catherine as two kids were there.

"Daddy, I want candies." Diana looked up at Ivan with her puppy dog eyes, "Could you buy us some?"

Alfie added, "Daddy said he could get us stars if we want. So of course he'll get us candies, right? Daddy?"

Ivan put his arms around them and said in a mellow voice, "What candy do you want? I'll get them all for you."

Then Alfie and Diana described what kind of candy they wanted.

Ivan then dialed a number, "Deliver some candies to Kelsington Bay. It has to be pink, heart-shaped, strawberry and chocolate flavored with white icing."

He treated his kids with full patience and kindness.

And Catherine was so jealous of them.

Half an hour later.

The lunch was over but Catherine didn't enjoy it even a little bit as Ivan didn't look at her, not even a glance.

She could imagine how happy she would be with two kids in Emerald Bay after they got married.

The car with candy had arrived Kelsington Bay.

"Yeah!"

Ivan took Alfie and Diana out of the living room, and they were so excited.

Catherine stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, staring at them with jealousy and every second of it moved her.

He had been around these two kids for six years and yet they were so close now. Maybe that was the so-called family ties.
