NovelStartHalf an hour later, Ivan and Jennifer got up.
Upstairs in their bedroom, Ivan clasped Jennifer's hand in his and said to her, "Thank you for being willing to face it with me." Jennifer smiled. "It's not a big deal. | am not in conflict with your mother. She has misconceptions about me, but | will prove it with my deeds." Hearing the footsteps on the stairs, Aubree straightened her back at attention and continued sipping her tea gracefully.
Getting downstairs, Ivan and Jennifer directly walked to Aubree.
Aubree put down the cup in her hand and looked up at Ivan, who was wrapping his arm around Jennifer's shoulder.

"Good morning, Auntie Aubree.” Aubree watched as Ivan took Jennifer to sit down on the opposite couch, without saying anything.
"Did you visit Catherine in the hospital?" Aubree deliberately mentioned this and secretly observed Jennifer's look, saying, "Her hand had a deep cut, so it must have had many stitches." "It seems you didn't visit her either. You are just estimating.” Ivan looked Aubree in the eye. "Then | don't have to do that." Aubree was stunned. Lost for words, she looked away.
Then the living room fell into silence for a few seconds.
Jennifer sat quietly and said in a calm tone, "Auntie Aubree, I'm very sorry for breaking my promise to you." Hearing this, Aubree raised her head and looked at Jennifer with freezing-cold eyes.
With a guilty look, Jennifer continued, "I want to follow my heart, so | won't leave Ivan anymore." "Where are Alfie and Diana?" Aubree asked, "How come they didn't attend the wedding?" Jennifer wondered whether Aubree was praying for the whereabouts of the children.
She replied, "They are not in Arkpool City now." Aubree pursed her lips with a wicked glint in her eyes, understanding what Jennifer meant.
No wonder Jennifer was able to sit across the table and talk about her decision without any worries.
Aubree's lips curled in a wry smile. Anyway, she wouldn't force Ivan to marry Catherine by holding the children hostage.
After all, they were her grandson and granddaughter.

"When will they come back?" Aubree asked.
Jennifer answered calmly, "They won't return for the time being, so you do not need to look for them. Whatever you do with that will be in vain.” Words failed Aubree.
"Well." Aubree tried to calm down. "You are determined to marry Ivan, and even the wedding has been held. Then | won't say anything about it." That meant Aubree would be neutral about their marriage.
Ivan grabbed Jennifer's hand. "Thank you, Mom." "But | got one condition.” Aubree fixed her eyes on Jennifer.
"Please go ahead." "I've asked Andrew to look into your background, but he didn't find anything," Aubree said what she was worried about. "I know nothing about your past, so | have no idea whether you would cause trouble for my family." "Mom, she won't," Ivan couldn't help but say.
"Very good." Aubree said, "So please answer a few questions in front of Ivan and me." Jennifer looked very calm. "To tell you the truth, even | do not know who my parents were. I'm an orphan." "Do you mean you fend for yourself all the time?" Jennifer didn't believe it. "Do you have adoptive parents?" "No, | was raised by a kind master." Jennifer said truthfully, "He left a letter a few years ago, and | don't know where he is now. | learned my medical skills from him." "Auntie Aubree." Jennifer got up early in the morning without eating anything, so she didn't want to spend too much time on this.
"| just want to say that no matter who | am, | do love Ivan, and | won't do anything against him." mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
