Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 79

Catherine's lips were tinged with a gentle smile, "Rest early and have a good night." After saying that, she took the initiative to hang up the phone.

Ivan had a momentary lapse of concentration. Because his mother had been urging him to marry Catherine, there established a high wall between him and her.

There was a time when they could talk as two intimate friends and would often hang out together.

Apart from Jennifer, Catherine was recognized by everyone as the only woman who could get close to him, Ivan Marsh.

Everyone thought he and Catherine were a couple, but only he knew for sure that there was no love between them.

Looking out the window at night, Ivan wondered what Jennifer was doing in Sunshine Village, which was not too far away.

Throughout the day, he always thought of her all of a sudden.

Sunshine Village was buzzing with activity at night.

"This is my specialty, Spaghetti Bolognese. Have a try?" Jennifer came out of the kitchen with the pasta, looking like a beautiful little cook in her apron.

Spencer stood at the table and looked at her with a smile, "Then I'll make myself at home."

Edward handed him the fork, "Spencer, here."

"How old are you?" Spencer asked him.

Edward blurted out, "Twenty."

"Then you're younger than me." Spencer nodded, took the fork and sat down in the wooden chair, "This pasta smells great, thanks!"

It was a surprise to Jennifer that Spencer would say "thanks" too.

"You're welcome." She turned around and happily went back into the kitchen to prepare Edward's serving.

"Master, I'll do it myself!" Edward followed her in, scurrying. He had been so happy since his master said she would stay here for a while.

Spencer felt that Edward was like a child, calling out "Master" all the time and following Jennifer everywhere. He worshiped her to the hilt.

But Jennifer's affection for Edward was definitely not the kind between a man and a woman, Spencer could tell.

"Am I allowed to stay here tonight?"

When Jennifer came out, Spencer asked tentatively.

She paused for half a second, and as they looked at each other, she asked, "Where is your companion?"

He smiled and replied, "Gone."

"..."

Spencer buried his head in the pasta, "The village has a good view. There's too much fickleness out there, and I want to be here for a few days to find some peace."

"Sure." Jennifer had made up her mind and she readily agreed, "You can stay with Edward, or you can have a separate room."
