Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan)
Chapter 99 I Beg You

The car stopped and the window was lowered.

Catherine couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Auntie Aubree's car parked in the yard.

Auntie Aubree spent the night here last night?

At that moment, Auntie Aubree emerged from the living room holding hands with two children, her half-masked face showing a rare smile.

She saw Auntie Aubree remind the children to watch the steps as the driver opened the car door, and she reluctantly let go of the children's hands.

The children waved goodbye to her.

"Bye Grandma!"

"Grandma, come see us often when you have time!"

"We all love you!"

"We finally have a grandmother!!!"

For a moment, Catherine thought she was hallucinating!

No, it was not possible!

Watching Auntie Aubree get into her car, Catherine hurried to drive away before that car left.

On the way, Catherine's head was buzzing crazily. Clutching the steering wheel, she felt an uncontrollably strong sense of loss.

The scene that she just saw haunted her like a nightmare.

She felt her blood pressure spike!

Slamming on the brake, she pulled over on the roadside. Catherine slumped on the steering wheel, trying to hold back the emotions that were surging in her heart.

Auntie Aubree lied to her...

B&B, the neighboring town.

In the uniquely-decorated room, Jennifer stretched herself and opened her eyes, only to replace herself in Ivan's arms.

Her cheeks flushed instantly. Goodness! She was clutching Ivan like an octopus!

"Yesterday was the most meaningful day of my life." Ivan's mellow and magnetic voice reached her ears.

Her heart fluttered. He was awake?

She hurriedly moved her body away, "Oh."

"So what do you want to know?" Ivan realized he had forgotten his own principle.

Jennifer looked at him in surprise. He would tell her whatever she wanted to know? But she didn't hesitate. This was a rare opportunity!

She put it in a blunt way, "I've promised to treat your mother's burns, right? Having met her twice, I think she has a more serious mental damage!"

"Hm." He agreed.

"I need to know the information about this fire, that is, the reason why it happened. I've searched online and there is no media coverage. It's impossible that such a huge incident would leave no trace at all. You've deliberately erased it off the book. Could it be that the cause of the fire is related to something big?"

He did not answer.

Jennifer continued, "If you trust me, then please tell me."

There was a long silence in the room.

It was a memory that Ivan had sealed for a long time.

Jennifer spoke sincerely, "I'm not pushing you. You don't have to give me an answer so soon. I know we haven't established 100% trust between us. We're bonded because we accidentally had two kids." "Anyway, I'm Alfie and Diana's mother, and they love you so much. I won't do anything to hurt you. I've owed my kids a lot, so I won't upset them again."

Ivan took her word for it.

But there was so much more involved in that fire, including a shameful past that the Marsh family did not want to mention.

That was the wound engraved in mother's heart, and the pain that kept haunting Ivan.

"I'll think about it." Ivan thought for a long while before speaking again in a low voice, "There is one thing I need to ask you to do, I beg you." Beg?

That was a heavy word.

Ivan had never begged anyone in his life, right?

"Say it and I'll see if I can agree to it." She felt a bit nervous all of a sudden. What over-the-line request would he raise?

Ivan was silent for a moment before saying, "Stay away from Spencer Lawrence in the future."

Jennifer was first slightly taken aback, and then asked tentatively, "Who is he? What's his relationship with you?"
