Surprised Wife With Twins

Chapter 208 I'll Never Let Her Carry the Burdens Alone

Jordan squatted in front of the kids, patting on their shoulders. "Could you knock on the door? Mr.

Marsh's hand is bleeding. I want to bandage it for him." He sounded like he was asking them for their

permission.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened.

Ivan appeared at the door. "Come in." He didn't want to worry his children as he had heard them call

him earlier.

"Daddy!"

"Ehn," he answered.

The children had no idea their mother was gone and asked him worriedly, "How did you get hurt,

Daddy?"

The wound on his right hand was scabbed partially, but blood was still oozing. The children could feel

his pain by just looking at it.

Without answering them, Ivan walked into his bedroom.

Jordan followed him, and so did the children.

Sitting on a couch next to the window, Ivan looked depressed, although he had tried to repress it in his

children's presence.

Jordan squatted in front of him, opened the first-aid kit, and held his bloody hand. He started to sterilize

the wound.

"I'll be gentle," said Jordan with concern.

Ivan replied, "I wouldn't mind if it was not bandaged." The little pain was nothing compared to the pang

in his heart.

The children stood beside him, boldly holding his arm to cooperate with Jordan while watching.

"Daddy, what happened? Did you fight with someone?" Alfie looked at him in confusion. "Did you

lose?"

Ivan stared at him, rubbing his head. "I didn't have a fight." Then he asked gently, "Alfie, Diana, where

has Mommy gone? Do you know her whereabouts?"

Alfie thought for a while and exchanged a glance with Diana. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Diana asked, "Is she gone?"

Alfie asked, "That's really quick, isn't it?"

Ivan frowned, realizing the children might know her whereabouts. Hope appeared in his eyes again.

"Mommy must be on a trip," Alfie answered calmly, "A few days ago, she asked if we would prefer to go

with her or stay with you when she went to travel to a faraway place."

Ivan's heart sank, realizing that Jennifer was saying goodbye to them in that way.

He whispered, "How did you guys answer her?"

"Mommy has suffered a lot in these years, so we decided to let her take a break. We didn't want to be a

drag."

"Right. We chose to be with you, Daddy. Daddy, you should take us out to play every day."

Ivan's heart tightened.

He wondered whether Jennifer would have taken the children away if they chose to travel with her.

Jordan bandaged his hand and knotted the white gauze.

Ivan said, "Jordan, can you take the children out and ask Marry to send them to bed?"

"Good night, Daddy."

The children were sensible, leaving the room with Jordan.

However, Finnley entered.

Ivan didn't expect him to come. He reminded Finnley, "Please close the door."

Finnley followed his order and walked toward Ivan. Seeing his bandaged hand, he asked anxiously,

"What happened, sir? Why did you get injured?"

"Nothing. Found anything?"

Finnley answered, "Not yet so far. I can't get the boarding information or any bus records. The

surveillance cameras on the road from Emerald Bay were all broken."

It was evident that Jennifer's traces were erased purposely.

Ivan's eyes became icy and sharp. "Go on the investigation. Even if we have to turn Arkpool City

upside down, I must find her. No matter what happens, I'll confront it with her. I'll never let her carry the

burdens alone."

"Yes, we are still investigating." Finnley sighed. "Sir, Madam Aubree asked me to come to see you.

She's worried about you."

Worried?

Ivan found it utterly ridiculous.
