Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 184

Pippa bowed at her and carried the box back to her room.

Aubree wore her mask today as she hadn't completely recovered. Standing in front of Jennifer, she looked at Jennifer aloofly.

"Madam Aubree, I've done making all the medicines you need and given them to Pippa." Jennifer asked, "Can I stay with my children for a few more days? It's not one month yet."

"You do count the days clearly." Aubree looked stern. "A few more days won't make any different. I won't change my mind."

"It means a lot to me," Jennifer replied flatly, not caring about Aubree's attitude at all. "I'm the children's mother."

Aubree gazed at her, and Jennifer looked into her eyes bravely.

"OK," Aubree agreed. "After that, you should vanish completely and return peace to our family. I'll appreciate you for that."

Then she bypassed Jennifer and left without looking back.

It was Saturday. The sunlight fell on the green grass in the garden. When the breeze rustled the leaves, spots of lights shone through the tree crown were darting on the rose vines.

Jennifer had a walk with her children in the yard. She looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. A sad smile touched her lips.

It would take another month for Aubree to finish using the medicine.

However, if Jennifer didn't go, Aubree would refuse to continue putting it.

In fact, Jennifer had been hesitant for a few days, wondering if she should take the children with her.

They had to make a choice between their daddy and mommy.

However, the children were already six, so they could think independently. No one else had the right to make the decision for them.

After all, they had already come to this world without being asked for permission first.

"Alfie, Diana," Jennifer asked, "If I traveled to a faraway place and stayed there for a long time, would you prefer to stay here to accompany your daddy or come with me?"

"I'll accompany Daddy," Alfie blurted out. He told her the reason, "Daddy has promised to teach me fencing. I want to learn a lot of things from him. He said I would be the future heir of his company."

Diana echoed, "I will also accompany Daddy. Mommy, you took care of us for six years. It was a hard time. You should travel and relax. I don't want to be your drag."

At that moment, Jennifer made a painful decision—to respect her children's choices and leave them here.

"When I'm away, you must be obedient to your father."

"We will."

"Learn from Daddy. Try to be as outstanding as he is."

"Roger that!"

In the president's office, 22nd floor, the Marsh Group.

Finnley went downstairs to deliver some documents. Ivan was alone in the office.

Sitting in his chair, he played with the key chain in a daze Looking at the lovely girl doll in his hand, he couldn't help smiling.

His phone rang suddenly. It was a call from the girl he was missing. In a surprise, he swiped to answer. "Hey, do you miss me?"

"Ivan, do you have a mug you always use?" Jennifer asked in a sweet voice.

Ivan looked at his mug. "Yes, I do. You don't need to buy me a new one. Are you in a mall?"

"I'm not buying you a new one," Jennifer answered, "I want you to give it to me. May I have it?"

"I'll take it back home to you if you like," Ivan answered generously, "I've been using the mug for over twenty years. It still looks quite new." He picked the mug up and checked on it. "It looks nice," he added.

"Thank you, Ivan." Jennifer chuckled. "I won't hold you up. Talk to you later."

Ivan still wanted to chat with her longer, but she ended the call.

Ivan put away his phone. Holding the key chain with one hand, he gripped the mug. He shook his hands, his eyes glimmering in tenderness.

He wondered why Jennifer suddenly wanted his mug.
