Chapter 167 A Storm Is Coming
Ivan hung up the phone and turned around. Seeing that the kids were running towards him happily, he
couldn't help smiling. Bending over, he opened his arms at the kids.
"How was your horseback riding?"
"It was fun! This is our second horseback riding!"
The kids ran into his arms and said excitedly.
"Second?" Ivan asked, "Mommy has taken you horseback riding before?"
"In Milan!"
Ivan rubbed their heads. They were really lucky.
Catherine had walked over. She handed the water to the kids and said, "Diana, Alfie, do you guys want
water? Look at you with all that sweat."
"Thank you, Ms. Collins!"
The kids took over the bottles and this scene was captured by the cameras.
"Daddy, will you unscrew it for me?" Alfie handed Ivan his bottle of water.
With a smile, Catherine asked Diana, "Diana, let me help you?" As she said, she took Diana's bottle of
water.
Ivan and Catherine unscrewed the bottles at the same time and handed them back to the kids. They
looked like a happy family.
The kids said with bright smiles, "Thank you!" The cameras all caught this.
When Ivan was with the kids, he was always gentle.
While Catherine, knowing that the reporters were watching, she had been keeping a sweet smile the
whole time.
They looked so much like a happy family!
When Ivan looked away from the kids and noticed the reporters who were taking photos, he quickly
glanced at the smiling Catherine. He stopped smiling, held the kids' hands and walked away.
He had to keep a distance from her.
Looking at their backs, Catherine was stunned and frustrated.
Kelsington Bay, Arkpool city.
In the research room upstairs.
Jennifer was taking the time to develop medicine for Ivan's stomach problem. She hoped she could
cure him too.
Her phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, Jennifer was delighted. She took off the gloves and answered
it, "Hello?"
"Are you working now?" Ivan's gentle voice came through.
"Yeah."
"Have you thought about the question I've asked you?"
"What question?"NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Ivan reminded her, "The one that you promised you would answer after I get back?"
Jennifer blushed. He asked if she loved him. Of course, she loved him. If not, why would she be here
tolerating Aubree?
But could she? There were so many obstacles between them.
"What? What's on your mind?" Ivan could always notice her subtle emotions.
Jennifer asked with concern, "When will you be back?"
"We are leaving tomorrow morning," he answered in a gentle voice. "Do you want me to bring you
anything? As a gift."
"You think I can't afford to buy things I want?" Jennifer asked while chuckling.
"Of course not."
"Well, do you know what a gift means?" Jennifer walked to the French window and looked out at the
scenery. "It means surprise. So, don't ask someone what she wants if you're going to give her a gift."
She continued in a delighted tone, "I'll be happy no matter what you give me." It was as if she was
teaching him how to love someone.
Hearing this, Ivan was also in a good mood. "Okay, I'll keep it in mind." Then, he laughed.
Jennifer smiled, though there was slight bitterness in her heart.
"Your mom's home." Seeing the limo driving in, she stopped smiling and said, "If there's nothing else, I
have to go now."
"Congratulations," Ivan said before she hung up.
"What?"
He smiled and explained, "Congratulations on nailing my mom. She's a tough woman to please."
Jennifer didn't get his words.
However, when she saw Aubree get out of the car and Pippa was walking her to the living room,
Jennifer felt a bit uneasy at the thought that they might come upstairs.
In the living room, Aubree asked in an unfriendly tone, "Where's Jennifer?"
"Ma'am, she's upstairs," a maid replied.
Aubree walked upstairs with the one-billion agreement in her hand.
