NovelEnglishJennifer and Ivan got off, heading for the house.
“How are you guys? Would you join us for dinner?” Spencer stood up, seeing them enter. He wondered if they had dinner, planning to inform the kitchen to prepare more dishes for them.
“No, thanks, Spencer,” Ivan answered, “We'll go back to Kelsington Bay later.” “Are you playing chess?” Jennifer walked toward them, sitting on the sofa next. “Spencer, | want to keep you updated. I've finished the last episode of the . How are you?” “You are indeed efficient,” Spencer praised her. Then he lifted his arm exaggeratedly. “Look! I'm completely recovered.” “What's your plan next?” Jennifer asked, “Continue to act?” “I don't care.” Spencer was still playful and had no purpose in achieving anything in the entertainment business. “Let nature take its flow. | would if there was any good play script. It depends on my status.” Jennifer nodded thoughtfully. Spencer asked, “How about you? What will you do after dubbing? Work as the vice president of the Marsh Group?” “Likewise. | haven't made up my mind yet.” Jennifer cast down her eyes, her long, curly eyelashes covering her eyes.

“You should be cautious. Distance makes the heart grow fonder.” Spence shared his experience. “I've been there. I'm sure you'll get tired of each other if you stick to each other for a long time.” “It only means you didn't love the girl deeply enough,” Ivan retorted solemnly. Then he changed the subject. “Spencer, work for the entertainment company run by the Marsh Group. | can guarantee you'll see many good play scripts.” Spencer looked over at him. “Will | depend on my backer too evidently, then?” He hadn't decided yet as he had been used to being alone. He preferred to depend on himself. “I'll think about it.” Ivan didn’t insist and knew he would consider his suggestions.
They didn’t stay in Rowan’s long. On the way, Ivan informed Kelsington Bay that they would return for dinner later.
In the kitchen of the vintage villa, everyone was busy.
Aubree was in a good mood, picking the recipes in person. “lvan’s stomach has recovered already. We can add the portions to the dishes.” “OK, Madam Aubree.” Pippa would also come back. Therefore, she asked the chef to prepare a few of Pippa’s favorite dishes.
Aubree walked to Ivan and Jennifer with Thomas when the Lamborghini was parked in the yard.
“Good evening, Mom.” “Evening, Madam Aubree.” “Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Marsh.” They greeted each other and entered the living room together.
Soon, abundant dishes were served on the dining table. A maid informed them that dinner was ready, so they went to the dining room.

“All the dishes are your favorites. Hope you'll like them.” Aubree sat down, looking loving. “Make yourself home. After all, you cannot come often.” Ivan and Jennifer felt guilty upon hearing her words and decided to visit her more in the future.
Ivan replied gently, “Mom, we only want to have a meal with you. The dishes are not the most important.” “They smell good and look wonderful,” Jennifer complimented bluntly. “Thank you, Mom.” “Help yourselves. Let's eat.” Aubree smiled at them.
Pippa was sitting next to her obediently.
Then they started eating.
In the past, Kelsington Bay was quiet and cold. No guest would visit Aubree. Usually, Aubree didn't talk much. The servants and maids had to be cautious. Therefore, they seldom spoke during meals.
Ivan, however, talked during dinner. “Mom, the Marsh Group holds a charity banquet every five years. This year, I'd love to donate 200 million dollars for building schools for the children living in the mountainous area.” “That's wonderful.” Aubree’s eyes lit up. She added, “Also, build the roads for them, so it'll be convenient to deliver fresh vegetables and fruits to them.” “Right.” Ivan had also thought about it. “We're still discussing the road construction with the villagers, trying to compensate them as much as possible.” After a while, he mentioned the key point. “We’d also love to invite you to attend the banquet this year. Will you attend it?” Aubree was slightly taken aback, wondering if that was the purpose of their visit tonight.
