Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Ivan Arrived

Ivan put the cup on the coffee table and left the office.
He met Finnley at the elevator, "I'm off duty." He said, "Leave it to you if there is an emergency."
Finnley watched him walk into the elevator, the doors closed.
"What's wrong with him today? He's been weird since he got back from kindergarten. "
On the way home, Ivan sat in the back seat, wondering in his thoughts.
It wasn't until the Lamborghini pulled up in the courtyard of Emerald Bay that Ivan returned to his senses.
Not seeing Jennifer after getting out and walking into the living room, he calmed down.
Alfie and Diana had already been home, listening to stories.
"Daddy! "
The children were happy to see him back, "Don't you have to work overtime today?"
"No." Ivan looked around, and his gaze fell on Jordan aside, "Where is Jennifer?"
"She went to Sunshine Village."
Ivan was suddenly unhappy.
He couldn't eat her hand-made dinner tonight. He returned so early because he missed the taste of her meal.
Ivan went upstairs and couldn't concentrate on his work in his study.
His stomach began to protest, and he especially missed her cooking.
...
At Sunshine Village, the sea of sunflowers in the sunset was a glorious scene to see.
Inside the quiet bamboo house, Jennifer sat on a small bench as she carefully helped sew up David's wounds, who was lying in a chair. A basin of blood-stained cotton was under the chair.
Edward handed her tools, and they worked well together.
"Does it hurt?" Jennifer asked while stitching, "Just bear with it."
David shook his head and forced a smile, "It didn't hurt after you put the medicine on it. I felt like I would die of pain before you came. Thank you."
"You are too polite." Jennifer took this seriously. "You should hold a meeting for the children in the village, warning them not to throw glass bottles and other things into the paddy field. The cut is deep. It almost hurt the tendons."
David, however, asked worriedly, "You married into a rich family, right?"
Jennifer glanced at him, "Is this about me now?" She continued to stitch up his wound, "Don't believe the news. It's not like that."
David was nervous, "Did he force you?"
"No."
"How is he treating Alfie and Diana? Are you used to living there? Is he violent? I heard he is a business tyrant, and he is not interested in women. Doesn't sound like a normal person."
Edward took a towel and gently wiped the sweat on Jennifer's forehead.
"He's not what everyone says he is. He's quite normal." Jennifer gently wrapped the gauze around the stitched wound, "It's okay. Don't let it touch cold water for two weeks. Just be careful with your injury lately. Stop the work."
When she unintentionally raised her eyes, she was shocked to find Ivan standing in the doorway.
It was so surreal.
From his cold and dark eyes, she saw the displeasure.
David was startled. Talk of the devil. How come such an honorable man would appear here?
"It's not an illusion, right?"
He was frozen.
Edward was also stunned and looked at him incredulously.
Ivan stood at the door with an indifferent aura that was not easy to approach. No one knew when he came.
Jennifer returned to Edward, "Take David back."
"Okay." Edward glanced at Ivan a few times. He was not fond of him, who took away Alfie, Diana, and Master.
Jennifer exhorted Edward before they left.
Ivan stepped into the house and made his way.
Edward carried David on his back and left, and only Ivan and Jennifer were in the house.
"Didn't you say to give me freedom?" Jennifer looked at him, "What are you doing here?"
Ivan did not answer, and his face looked calm, but it just made Jennifer feel fidgety.
His stomach growled.
She darted at his stomach and then his sullen face again, and she moved closer, leaning down and putting her ear near his abdomen.
Rumble.
Ivan tried to restrain it but failed.
"You're hungry?" Jennifer looked up, a little surprised, "Do you miss my cooking?"
