Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 151

"How have you been?" Catherine said with a smile, "Is everything okay?"

"It's wonderful to receive your call in this beautiful morning. It really made my day." The man on the other side on the phone answered, "The weather is nice recently, and I feel great."

Catherine's eyes were glinting with slight tenderness, "Glad to hear that."

Mr. Edison then asked with concern, "How was Mr. Marsh? Occupied as usual?"

"Well, yeah." Catherine replied with a soft voice, "Mr. Edison, me and Mr. Marsh are very grateful for your help to the Marsh Group before."

"It's been ages. Don't mention it. We are friends, and friends help each other, right?"

"Well, Mr. Edison, I do have a favor to ask." Catherine felt embarrassed to say so.

"Please do tell me."

She smiled, took a deep breath, and said, "I was wondering if you could move up your meeting with Mr. Marsh to the day after tomorrow?"

Mr. Edison clearly was a bit surprise, "Is there something wrong?"

"Not exactly."

"But I'm fully scheduled this month, I don't have time that day." He sounded sorry.

"As I recall, your daughter is having her eighteenth birthday on the 15th of this month." Catherine had already checked, "So no matter how busy you are, I guess you won't miss it for the world, right?"

"That's what I'm gonna say." Mr. Edison laughed, "I didn't plan to invite you and Mr. Marsh because I thought you are all gonna be crazy busy."

"That's okay. I suppose he'll come for the sake of your friendship, and we might as well talk about that project on that day."

He was pleased by her words. After all, being friends with Ivan Marsh was truly a big deal.

Catherine added, "And he needs to supervise an urgent project himself at the time you agreed on, so…"

Mr. Edison then got the hint that this whole thing was Ivan's idea.

So he agreed as he thought it was planned by Ivan, "In that case, then I guess I'll see you the day after tomorrow."

"Thank you for your understanding. And Mr. Marsh would be grateful, too."

"Please, don't bring a gift." Mr. Edison said in a mysterious way, "I've already thought about what I'm gonna ask you for. I'll say it then."

"Us?" Catherine was confused.

"That's right. But it's a secret now."

"Okay, then." Catherine smiled and suddenly she heard another person's voice on the phone, and Mr. Edison said in a moment, "Catherine, I gotta go. See you then."

"Okay."

"And please, come with Mr. Marsh. We'll be happy to see you both."

"I will." Catherine replied with a gentle chuckle, "Thank you again."

Mr. Edison was one of Ivan's small group of friends and once helped the Marsh Group when it was in crisis.

He was also a successful businessman who had helped Ivan steer his life into the right direction.

Mr. Edison had gotten sick before which led to his legs being paralyzed so he had to be in a wheelchair. And that was why Ivan had to fly to meet him for the new project.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Catherine held her phone in her hand. Her smile faded away, and shrewdness flashed across her eyes.

She wouldn't let Darcie take Ivan away!

In the bedroom of Darcie upstairs.

Jennifer finally struggled to get out of Ivan's arms, and said anxiously, "Now go. I need to take a shower."

She was a bit turned on by his kiss.

But Ivan still got his senses and he wouldn't stay here for the night. So he didn't protest when he was pushed by her out of the room, although he didn't want that kiss to end.

Bam!

Mr. CEO was mercilessly shut out of the room!
