Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 385

Aubree was rendered speechless.

Instead of ending the conversation, she shifted it in another direction. "How's your work recently? You offered so many benefits at your wedding. There should be a huge loss, right? You sent out cash for lucky money and announced the discount for the malls."

Ivan could tell that Aubree had seen the news.

"All pockets money, Mom," Ivan answered carelessly, "As long as I'm happy, it's worth it."

Aubree could tell he loved Jennifer indeed.

She had to admit that Jennifer was brilliant to ask her to stay overnight, wondering if Jennifer wanted to help her reconcile with Ivan.

However, Aubree couldn't be pleased immediately. Although she was, she wouldn't announce it.

She had a long conversation with her son this evening.

They both skipped talking about Catherine or Jennifer.

Hence, the atmosphere was peaceful. They got closer as Aubree wished.

When it was ten o'clock, Ivan reminded her, "Mom, it's getting late. You should go to bed. Have a sweet dream."

Aubree confirmed that Ivan allowed her to stay.

His words sent warmth to her chest as he finally verbally agreed.

"Ehn. All right." Standing up with a smile, Aubree added, "You, too. You need to go to work tomorrow."

"OK, Mom."

Ivan followed her to stand up and left the living room with her.

After walking Aubree to the guestroom, Ivan went to the study.

Jennifer was reading the dialogue aloud at the desk. Her voice had changed, which attracted Ivan's attention. "You must have a gift in dubbing." This was his first time listening to her, feeling amazed.

Jennifer raised her head and closed the playscript. "Done talking to her?"

"Ehn." Ivan leaned against the desk. "Mom has gone to bed. Shall we go to bed now?"

They smile at each other.

The night was deep.

The following morning.

Jennifer and Ivan got up together. After having a fantastic night with Ivan, she looked ruby.

After putting on her clothes, she helped Ivan tie the necktie.

She was too petite, and Ivan thought she was indeed adorable while staring at her serious look.

"Wait a moment." Jennifer poured a glass of water after that. She passed two pills to him. "Take them."

Ivan took them over. After she tossed the pills into his mouth, he raised his head slightly to swallow down.

"Let's go downstairs. Probably your mother has got up." Jennifer took his arm. "You should have breakfast. More or less."

Taking her wrist, he stopped her. "Thank you, Jennie."

Jennifer offered him a smile. After leaving the bedroom, they met Aubree at the stair entrance.

The couple stopped in unison.

"Morning, Auntie Aubree," Jennifer greeted her, releasing Ivan's arm by instinct.

"Morning, Mom," Ivan greeted Aubree calmly.

Aubree replied, "Morning."

They went downstairs.

Jennifer could tell the change in Aubree's attitude. At least, she couldn't see the detest from Aubree's eyes.

The morning sunlight fell through the window in the dining room. With the dazzling light from the chandelier, the room was bright.

Marry hat got up earlier and prepared abundant breakfast.

Aubree could hardly remember when she had breakfast last time. It had been so many years that she couldn't recall.

However, she felt touched for some reason after getting up this morning. Her heart was wrapped in warmth.

The three sat at the dining table.

The atmosphere during breakfast was harmonious.

"Jennie, why don't you take someone with you to the studio later?" Ivan was worried about letting her go there alone.
