Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 148

Catherine felt awful.

She stared at him in disbelief and was overwhelmed by the grievance and frustration. But she tried to regain composure and said, "Did you know what you've done with her?"

She pointed at the wrinkled sheet and said anxiously, "She drugged you! She's a doctor! Did you drink something she gave you? Otherwise, why would you be in her room?"

Ivan looked down at her, exuding a deadly charming vibe.

Catherine couldn't help but ask, "You've always hated women, why would you be with her…"

"I see you haven't realized who you are." Ivan took a glance at her.

She walked forward, grabbed his arm and asked with sadness, "Ivan, it could be anyone else except me, right?"

"Yes," Ivan said without a doubt.

She shook her head in disbelief, "Why? Why am I the outsider? What did I do wrong?"

"Catherine, listen," Ivan said, "I'll never have feelings for you."

She suddenly froze and then loosened his arm, heartbreaking.

"You could fall in love with someone that quick," Catherine smiled, "then you'll love me one day, too."

She then turned around and left with pride and a broken heart.

She took a deep breath at the stairs and tried to pull herself together.

Catherine thought she had to talk with Darcie as she might not be able to come here again since Ivan disliked her.

Ivan walked into the medication research room with a kettle of Earl Grey in his hand. He took a look at Jennifer who was working hard, which made his heart ache.

He was still staring at her for a long time after sitting back in his chair.

Catherine felt distressful as she couldn't defeat a silly girl, nor could she compete with a doctor.

Was it that Ivan wouldn't love her no matter how hard she tried, how good she became, or how much his mother liked her?

Catherine finally saw Darcie walking out.

Darcie was heading to the toilet.

Catherine followed her.

They met at the sink.

Jennifer still got her mask on so she was Darcie now.

She knew Catherine would wait for her so she came out here on purpose.

"Can I help you, Ms. Collins?" Darcie faked her voice perfectly.

Catherine said directly, "Don't even think that you could become the one after treating Auntie Aubree, not to mention Ivan is married. Even if he isn't, you are in no position to be with him."

Jennifer found it amusing and asked with curiosity, "Well then, would it be you?"

"…" Catherine was speechless.

Jennifer felt sorry for her under the mask.

But Catherine was not some pushover. She was a "nasty" piece of work, or otherwise, how could she become the Vice President?

"It's just temporary." Catherine got that confidence.

Jennifer then asked, "Does his wife know about that?"

There was some disdain in Catherine's eyes, "Just a vulgar chick. Not a match for me!"

Jennifer laughed.

Catherine then turned to leave. As she met Alfie and Diana who were walking upstairs, the two ignored her.

But she took a big step forward to squat in front of them and blocked them with her body.

She looked at them with a smile.

The two kids exchanged a glance and took a step back cautiously while holding hands.

"You are so cute!" Catherine said gently and then put her hands on their shoulders, "Tell you a secret."

She said, "Doctor Darcie wanted to take your daddy away from your mommy."

"…" Alfie and Diana were astonished with their mouths open.

Then she stood up, stroke their little heads, and walked downstairs.

They stood on the stairs and watched her walking away until they couldn't hear the steps. Then Alfie pulled Diana into their room.

He asked with surprise on his face, "What did she mean? Did she see something?"

"No matter what she saw, I think she still doesn't know Darcie is actually our mommy."

"Would she go mad if she knows? Our mommy is so brilliant!"
