Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 162

Jennifer stuffed the ointment in Pippa's hand and reminded her, "Apply this on her face. Just a thin layer will do. Thank you!"

Then, she ran into the kitchen.

Pippa didn't know what to say.

Looking at Jennifer's back, Aubree fell silent.

Pippa squatted down in front of her and asked, "Ma'am, shall I apply this for you?"

Aubree didn't answer, so Pippa took it as a "yes."

"Ma'am, you can be angry with her, but you shouldn't torture yourself," Pippa said as she unscrewed the bottle of ointment.

In the kitchen, Jennifer cooked the steak at the fastest speed possible and then dealt with the vegetables.

She had been a single mother for six years and this wasn't a tough job for her.

Aubree had been angry with her all morning and hadn't eaten anything. She must be hungry.

She would definitely have lunch, that she didn't have to worry about.

In the exquisitely-decorated living room, after Pippa applied the ointment for Aubree, she helped her put on the mask that covered the burnt half of her face again.

"Ma'am, how do you feel?" Pippa asked, "Does it fell a bit cool?"

"Yeah," Aubree answered with a sullen face.

"Ma'am, last night at 11 p.m., I saw that the lights were still on in the research room. She didn't even have dinner," Pippa said this on purpose, "And she didn't have breakfast today as well."

Hearing this, Aubree looked even unhappier. "You are too young to see others' true colors."

"But, ma'am…" Pippa said gently, "If she's faking everything, why would she spend that much time in the research room? She's more professional than Dr. Watson. Those e-mails are the evidence."

"I didn't say she's fake," Aubree thought about it carefully and said, "She's a scheming woman who approached my son with two kids and has ulterior motives. I think she had planned all this seven years ago."

Pippa's eyes widened and she dared not say anything more. Was Mrs. Marsh really that scary?

At 11:55.

Jennifer walked out of the kitchen in her apron. "Ma'am, lunch is ready."

Aubree checked the time on the clock and was surprised. How did she do it?

Pippa helped her up and they walked to the dining room.
