Chapter 101 The First Step
“Ivan’s weak spot?” Catherine fell into a trance. She didn’t think Ivan had any weak spot.
“It’s Jennifer.” Spencer was confident.
Hearing this, Catherine got upset, but she quickly recovered from it. “You approached Jennifer on purpose. You are trying to irritate Ivan, right?”
“It’s none of your business,” Spencer said in a meaningful voice.
Catherine gave a smile and thought for a moment. “Although I don’t want them to be together, I can’t understand why you need to do this.”
“It makes me happy. I enjoy Ivan’s unpleasure.” Spencer continued, “If you were his girlfriend, I would try to take you away from him as well.” With that, Spencer turned his eyes upon Catherine with an unpleasant smile.
Catherine stopped dead in her tracks.
“Stay out of this, Catherine.” Spencer always had a lot of respect for Catherine. “From where I stand, I’m born to distress Ivan. Except that, anything else is meaningless.”
“Spencer, you need therapy.”
“Maybe.” Spencer snorted. “The Marshes should take full responsibility for it.” After saying that, he turned to leave.
Spencer went away, leaving Catherine standing by herself.
Catherine thought for a moment, and suddenly an awful idea came to her.
If Spencer had slept with Jennifer, would Ivan still like her?
Once this was reported by the media, the Marsh family would take it as a great insult.
And Aubree wouldn’t approve of the match.
Thinking of this, Catherine realized that Spencer was not only causing trouble for Ivan but also helping her!
Ivan and Jennifer returned to Emerald Bay.
After the children dragged Jennifer upstairs, Jordan told Ivan about Aubree’s visit last night.
“Did she stay overnight here?” Ivan was surprised.
Jordan nodded. “Yes, she slept with the children in their room.”
“Did anything annoy her?”
“Madam seemed to like the children. At first, she looked a little reluctant, but later the children won her heart. She was even unwilling to leave this morning.”
Ivan said, “If my mother comes again, you should tell me as soon as possible. She is emotionally unstable and can’t spend too long with the children.”
“Yes, sir.”
Ten days later.
Spencer was teaching painting under an old acacia tree at the bridge in Sunshine Village.
“Daliana, I think your painting will look better in a lighter color.”
“Kenny, the leaf in your painting would be better if it were finer. And it is almost perfect now.”
“Take your time, kids. Who hasn’t finished mixing the paints? Let me help!”
Spencer, dressed casually, walked among the children with a paint tray. It was his tenth day to give art lessons to them.
He did this for Jennifer, who didn’t come back after being forcibly taken away by Ivan.
Spencer had the best ten days here. He had never smiled so often today.
Spending time with these children gave him a lot of new insights into life.
“Spencer, have a look at what I’ve drawn. Can I draw a frog in it?”
He walked over and carefully examined it. “It’s up to you. Don’t worry about anything when painting. You can paint whatever you want!”
“Great!”
Spencer took the liberty of teaching the children, and he developed a profound friendship with them.
Having lived in the bamboo house for ten days together, even Spencer and Edward were on the mend!This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
On the tenth day, the children all came to see Spencer off.
Edward packed up Spencer’s clothes and asked unwillingly, “Will you come back?”
“Excuse me?” Spencer leaned under the cherry tree, with his arms around his chest, asking in a tempting voice, “Will you miss me?”
Edward actually blushed in shame, and he hurriedly looked away.
“When will Jennifer come?”
“She told me she would come today, so maybe she was on the way.”
“Okay.” Hearing this, Spencer said, “Then I have to go. Her husband will be annoyed when seeing me.”
Taking the suitcase from Edward’s hand, Spencer continued, “See you! Call me when you miss me!”
Shortly after Spencer left, Jennifer was driven to the bamboo house, but Ivan did not come.
“Master,” Edward said, “Spencer has just left!”
