Pippa wondered if it was her illusion, gaping at them. Ivan refused to answer the calls earlier. It turned out he was with Jennifer.
"What happened to her?" Ivan paused his pace, looking at Pippa. "What was wrong? Why was she sent to the emergency room?"
He didn't look worried but as calm as during a business negotiation.
Jennifer stared at his side face but failed to figure out what was in his mind.
However, Ivan didn't let go of her hands, gripping her determinedly.
Pippa returned to her senses and bowed at them respectfully. "Good day, Mr. Marsh, Ms. Brooks. Madam Aubree... saw the live broadcast of you in the kindergarten. Then she collapsed onto the sofa while covering her chest..."
So, she was pissed off?
The thought made Jennifer embarrassed with an awkward look. She felt sorry.
Ivan stared at Pippa intensely, his brain working rationally.
"Ms. Brooks, you are a doctor. Could you go in to check on Madam Aubree as well?" Pippa panicked, trying to grasp every opportunity.
Right then, the door of the emergency room was opened. A doctor walked out.
Ivan walked to him with Jennifer. Before Ivan spoke, the doctor bowed at him and said politely, "Mr. Marsh, Madam Aubree was in an emergency. We've tried our best but cannot guarantee anything."
Jennifer pulled her hand from Ivan's palm, walking into the emergency room without hesitation.
Ivan stared at her back, something flashing through his eyes.
The doctor wanted to stop Jennifer, but Pippa pulled him. "Please let her enter. Probably she can help. She's also a doctor. Please trust her."
The doctor pulled her hands away hurriedly, following Jennifer to enter the emergency room.
Ivan watched the scene with his hands stuffed in his trousers pockets, looking careless.
Jennifer entered out of kindness, her heart tightening.
She knew how much Ivan cared about his mother and the family's affection.
