Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 128

Otherwise, many women would fall for him.

Jennifer had always thought that she wouldn't be moved by any man easily.

With his eyes closed, Ivan wasn't asleep either. He was waiting for Jennifer to come to bed. He wouldn't feel at ease until he smelled her.

He had gotten used to her lying next to him.

The next morning, Jennifer, who had stayed up almost the whole night, left the house, driving her car away without even having breakfast.

When Ivan woke up, she was already gone.

He felt a bit disappointed.

After going downstairs.

"Mr. Marsh, I've made a bowl of noodles. Do you want to have a try?" Marry said with concern. "I followed Mrs. Marsh's recipe and I didn't change the proportion of the ingredients. It looks the same and tastes the same."

Ivan looked at her and walked toward the dining room.

He sat on the white chair as Marry brought the noodles over to him happily and handed him the fork. Then she stood aside and looked at Ivan expectantly.

Ivan observed the noodles. It looked indeed the same as Jennifer's cooking.

He picked up a few strands and put them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it down.

Marry was delighted.

This was great. Mr. Marsh was finally eating her food!

But the next second, Ivan frowned, put down the fork and rush to throw up into the trash can.

Marry was startled. She brought a towel and some water for him immediately.

Ivan felt nauseous, sick and couldn't stop puking!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Marsh," Marry was in a panic. It was not that she was worried about being scolded, but that she was concerned about Ivan's stomach. "I'm sorry, sir. Are you okay? Should we go to the hospital? I'll call Dr. Watson…"

"No need." Ivan waved his hand at her while puking. He wasn't blaming her.

Marry was confused. She had cooked the noodles following Jennifer's recipe. How could this be?

Three minutes later…

After Ivan threw up all the noodles he had eaten and washed his teeth, he felt much better.

Marry didn't dare to make food for him again after this.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Marsh. I am really sorry. I didn't mean to…" Marry apologized with tears. "I'm sorry…"

Ivan turned to look at her, "It's okay. It wasn't your fault."

After that, he stood up and walked out of the house.

Marry saw him off with sad eyes. She didn't know things would turn out like this.

The driver saw Ivan and opened the backseat door for him. After Ivan got in the car, the driver drove away.

At this moment, Jennifer's car was parked outside Rowan's house.

She had called to inform Rowan five minutes before she got here. Rowan had intended to take a long sleep. When he got the phone call, he hurried downstairs. While putting on his coat, he walked out of the living room.

Seeing that Jennifer got out of the car alone, he looked inside the car.

"Did you come alone?"

"Did you see anyone else?" Jennifer straightened her clothes after getting out of the car.

"Please, come on in."

Rowan was wondering why Ivan didn't come with her.

"You have treated Ivan's mother before, haven't you?" Jennifer asked him directly after walking into the house. "What was her case? Why did you stop treating her? You should've been able to cure her. Was it because the time was not enough?"

"Did Mr. Marsh ask you for help?"

"Yes."

Rowan looked at her in surprise. "And you agreed to help."

"I did."

The two's eyes met and time seemed to have stopped for a second.

After a while, Rowan signed. "You are her daughter-in-law. If you became her doctor, she wouldn't thank you even if you cured her. But if you failed to cure her or she got tired of waiting, things would be intense between the two of you."

"Things have always been intense between us," Jennifer said bluntly, "She doesn't like me at all. She doesn't even want to see me."

Rowan was even more surprised, "But she's willing to let you treat her?"
