Jennifer didn’t have any objection. With a lingering fear, she sighed. “Fortunately, Linda sold them to Aston. If another person had it, I wonder what would happen.”
“The bad will always fail,” Ivan replied with a faint smile. “God is watching us.”
Sitting next to him, Jennifer pressed her head on his shoulder.
“I didn’t expect Aston to be your friend.” Ivan was still surprised. “Does he have a crush on you?”
Jennifer had a hunch that he would discuss such a topic sooner or later.
If the man wasn’t Aston, Ivan wouldn’t concern about it.
After all, they both knew how outstanding Aston was.
“Aston and I are just friends. There’s no hanky-panky between us.”
Ivan believed her wife’s words. However, he could tell Aston had a crush on her.
Stella Maris was a unique diamond and was longed for by many collectors. Aston shouldn’t have been an exception. If not for gaining Jennifer’s favor, he wouldn’t have helped her to buy it.
Therefore, Ivan was confident that Ashton liked her sincerely.
“What’s eating you?” Jennifer looked at him with a smile, pinching his cheek. “I hope you don’t misunderstand us.”
Ivan looked into her eyes gently, shaking his head. “Of course not. I didn’t know you also collected jewelry. You are Aston’s friend, so you must also be an expert. Do you have another identity in this field?”
Jennifer stared up at him, her eyes glimmering tenderness. “That’s just a hobby.”
“I wonder how many surprises you’ll give me in the future.”
Jennifer asked, “Do you believe I love you truly?”
“Of course.”
“So, if my hidden identities can help you, I’ll disclose them,” said Jennifer, “I’ll try my best to help you. If an identity is worthless, disclosing it doesn’t make sense.”
Ivan could tell she meant what she said. Looking into her kind eyes, Ivan gently held her in his arms, feeling extremely sorry.
He had been absent for seven years in her life, and he must make it up for her for the rest of his life.
