Jennifer looked at her in surprise.
Aubree met her gaze and quickly looked away. She had made up her mind.
The atmosphere became awkward somehow.
Jennifer wondered if she had misunderstood something.
Aubree had asked the kitchen to prepare such an abundant dinner. Wasn’t she happy to see them come back?
Last time, Aubree was glad to stay in Emerald Bay overnight.
Ivan propped his arm on Jennifer’s shoulders and reminded her gently, “I’m picky for bed. Forgot that? I won’t get used to staying here. I might not be able to even sleep.”
Jennifer stared at him, seeing the affection in his eyes. She felt grateful for his kindness.
Aubree didn’t explain.
After resting in the living room for a while, Ivan and Jennifer left with Pippa before eight o’clock. Aubree didn’t ask them to stay longer, nor did she walk them to the yard.
“Madam Aubree, please stop overthinking,” the butler consoled her after they left, “Mrs. Marsh won’t take it to heart.”
Aubree glared at him. “Do I care how she feels?”
“Neither will Mr. Marsh,” the butler changed his wording immediately.
Aubree went upstairs without looking back.
In the Lamborghini, Jennifer peered out of the window in a daze.
“What on earth is in your mother’s mind?”
Ivan gripped her hand to console her quietly.
In the following two days, Spencer’s negative news and the relevant comments went viral.
The president’s office, the Marsh Group.
Early morning.
