"Ivan Marsh sent his men to stalk me, and he's always alert to me," Jennifer replied bluntly, "Think he has taken me as his family? A man like him will never trust others. He's heartless and profit-driven."
"No. He's not like that," Jordan explained, "Probably he's heartless to others, but he loves you and your children. I know him well. Since you moved in, his aura has become gentler."
Jennifer smiled at him. "He's done it for the children. He values family affection, Jordan."
Jordan was rendered wordless.
Suddenly, Jennifer seemed to recall something. "By the way, who is Spencer Lawrence?"
"Spencer Lawrence?" Jordan shook his head. "I've never heard of this man before."
Jennifer could tell he told the truth, feeling puzzled.
At dust, Ivan didn't return home.
The dishes on the table almost went cold. The children were so hungry that their bellies growled, looking expectantly into the yard.
"Mommy, do you want to call Daddy to ask him when he'll return?" Alfie played with his fork and asked in a weak tone.
"No. Let's not wait any longer. Let's eat." Jennifer filled the children's bowls with soup.
Diana picked up her fork. Her mother's dishes were too yummy. It was a miracle for Diana to wait for such a long time.
Alfie also longed to eat the food. He started pigging out.
Standing at the door, Jordan was still waiting, wondering why Ivan hadn't come home.
Jennifer made a table full of dishes and waited for him. Usually, Ivan would have been home at this time because he never worked overtime.
The downstairs of the Marsh Group's building.
The driver pulled the rear door of the Lamborghini open. Ivan sat in.
While the driver started the engine, Ivan said, "To Rowan's house."
"Okay, Mr. Marsh."
