Ch. 1301..1310

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1301-Alec Might Not Want You Anymore At 10 pm, Jenny and company arrived at an eatery for kebabs and beer.

Due to what had happened earlier, everyone had a heavy heart. Fortunately, nothing happened in the end. If something did, Jenny couldn't imagine how Zack would live.

"I'm sorry, Jenny," Janet said, looking at Jenny.

Sighing, Jenny waved her apology away. "Just promise me you'll be well and healthy. Don't do it again. Even if you have no regard for yourself, please think about my brother. Don't you know how much he loves you?"

Janet blushed, feeling both guilty and embarrassed. "It won't happen in the future." Since her parents had been dealt with, she wouldn't do anything stupid again, even if Jenny had not made her promise to do so.

"Hurry up and dig in. The kebabs here are delicious." Zack beckoned them to eat, feeling much better than before. He opened a can of beer and immediately poured it into his glass.

Just as Jenny was about to stop him, Janet stopped him first. "You're still recovering, so you can't drink."

"Can't I drink a little?" Zack asked.

Jenny shook her head. "Of course not. What are you talking about?"

Immediately, Janet grabbed the cup from him and shouted at the waiter. ’ Hi, can we have a glass of juice over here?"

Just like that, Zack ended up drinking juice while Jenny and the others drank beer.

"Jenny, is Gilbert mad at me?" Zack was a little worried. While he knew that Gilbert had always wanted him to break up with Janet, he really couldn't do it.

Jenny was conflicted when she heard that. "Don't worry," she said. "He isn't mad at you. I will talk to him later, so don't worry."

Zack nodded and fell silent.

Halfway through their meal, Janet mustered the courage to ask, "Zack, you asked me if I would like to marry you. Were you serious about it?"

"Of course!" Zack nodded. A little stunned, he asked, "Why are you asking that?"

"Well, I—"

Before Janet could say anything, Jenny nudged Zack. "What are you doing?

Propose to her now!"

Zack quickly got to his senses, knelt on one knee, and produced a ring from his bag. Fortunately, he had it with him all the time.

"Janet, will you marry me?" Zack asked.

This time, Janet didn't refuse.

"Yes," she replied with a smile, and Zack put the ring on her finger.

Everyone applauded her. In Janet's opinion, it was the bravest thing she had done.

Seeing that Zack's marriage proposal was successful, Jenny was elated."

Congratulations on proposing, but you can't hold the wedding ahead of mine with Alec. We have fixed a date," she said.

"Don't worry. I'm not in a hurry." He hadn't prepared anything yet.

"Not in a hurry?" Jenny raised her eyebrows. "Then why did you propose?"

"Jenny, watch your tongue. If you keep this up, Alec might not want you anymore," Zack said, giving her a look.

Alec, who had been silently eating, smiled nonchalantly and said, "Don't worry.

No matter how she is, I will always want her."

Zack and Janet's jaws dropped as they didn't expect Alec to be so smooth and romantic.

Smiling triumphantly, Jenny took Alec's hand, "Hmph, this is my fiance, so you think you can bully me."

Hearing that, everyone laughed, and the mood brightened.

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1302-Are You Going to Become a Priest?

After the issue between Janet and Zack was resolved, Jenny tried to meet Gilbert, but he declined her invitation, claiming to be busy. With no other option, Jenny decided to visit Gilbert's company.

When Jenny knocked on the door to Gilbert's office, he was still busy with work.

"Gilbert," Jenny called, standing in front of his desk. "It's lunchtime. Won't you treat me to a meal?"

Gilbert didn't expect Jenny to visit him. Nonetheless, he didn't turn her away.

Instead, he smiled and said, "Alright."

He took Jenny to the company cafeteria. After moving his company to Bardoff City, things were going fairly well. The company had grown in size; hence, it was crowded during lunchtime. Being the president of his company had its privileges. Jenny followed him to the second floor, where there was a dedicated place for him to order food.

"What would you like to eat?" Gilbert handed her the menu.

Glancing at it, Jenny smiled and said, "The food you have here is much better than what we have at the hospital."

"If you like the food here, you can always visit," Gilbert said.

Chuckling, Jenny placed an order before she handed the menu back to him.

After Gilbert had ordered, he turned to Jenny, asking, "Why did you suddenly come looking for me? What happened?"

"Nothing, Gilbert. Must something happen for me to look for you?" Jenny felt a little sad. Not only did Gilbert not take the initiative to visit them, but he also didn't seem very happy when she came to him.

Gilbert shook his head as he didn't mean it that way. Nonetheless, things had turned awkward.

After a moment of deliberation, Jenny decided to stop beating around the bush.

"Are you still mad at me?" she asked.

"Mad at you? Why would you say that?" Gilbert didn't understand. He didn't feel like he had any reason to be angry with Jenny, even though he had found it hard to digest the things she had said to him.

Recounting the past events, Jenny felt guilty. "I was a bit too harsh with my words. You were just looking out for Zack."

"Jenny, do you really think I'm that petty?" Gilbert was frustrated. Although Jenny's words had been hard on his ears, they didn't make him too angry.

"If you weren't angry, why haven't you visited Zack?" Jenny asked.

Her question rendered Gilbert helpless. "I've been busy lately," he said, "and as you said, we all have our own lives now, so why should I visit him?"

"Gilbert…"

"Don't worry, I've let it go, and I'm happy for both of you."

Hearing him say that only made Jenny more worried. "Gilbert, are you alright?"

"Yes, I've never been better." While he used to be worried that Jenny and Zack might end up with the wrong people, he decided to stop worrying and had never felt more at ease.

Jenny didn't know what to say. While it was what she had hoped for, she felt that something was off.

Before she could speak, Gilbert said, "After you and Zack get married, I would like to do things I like."

"What do you want to do, Gilbert?" Jenny asked.

"I'm planning to take a trip to Mount Wallington. I had a conversation with an old man, and it was because of what he said that I came to a realization. He is at Mount Wallington, and I'm planning to look for him," Gilbert said.

Jenny was stunned.

"Gilbert! Are you going to become a priest?” Jenny couldn't believe it. She wondered if she had misunderstood Gilbert

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1303-Calm Down No one could blame Jenny for reacting so strongly. Gilbert's idea came out of the blue. She was completely unprepared for it.

She thought Gilbert would say that he wanted to travel around the world or look for a partner. Never had she expected him to say he wanted to visit Mount Wallington. It was hard for her to accept such a whiplash.

"Jenny, there's no need to be so worked up. No matter what I do in the future, I will always be your brother. That will never change," Gilbert said with a smile, not denying Jenny's remark about him wanting to become a priest.

Jenny began to panic. Hurriedly, she said, "Calm down, Gilbert. You haven't even married or had children yet, let alone experienced the beautiful wonders of love. How can you suddenly be disillusioned with the world and what it has to offer?"

Jenny felt that his decision had been made too quickly.

"Regarding marriage and children, they have no appeal to me. The same goes for romance," he answered. While he had once considered being with Jenny, after everything that happened, he no longer had any feelings for her and solely regarded her as his sister.

"Gilbert, how can you say that? You haven't even tried it, so how do you know it holds no appeal to you? What if it's something you'd actually enjoy?"

Jenny tried to convince Gilbert, refusing to sit back and watch him become a priest.

Understanding where she came from, Gilbert answered, "Don't worry, I'm just saying I want to take a look at Mount Wallington. I won't necessarily stay there."

"When do you plan to go?" Jenny asked.

"Well, I'd wait till you and Zack get married. After all, I need to see you both find your happiness before I can pursue what I want," Gilbert said.

Jenny was touched by his words. At the same time, they frustrated her. There was still some time before she and Alec got married, leaving her with a little time to change Gilbert's mind. She had to hurry and introduce him to someone he liked. Once he found someone, he wouldn't have the intention of becoming a priest anymore.

Having made up her mind, Jenny cautiously said, "Gilbert, since you've decided to wait until after Zack and I get married, I'll introduce two girls to you before that. What do you think about meeting them?"

The only solution Jenny could think of was to send Gilbert on blind dates. That was the only way he could have a chance to meet new girls.

That suggestion gave Gilbert a headache. "Jenny, I am not interested."

"Just meet them. Well, just think of it as a way of making more friends," Jenny insisted. Gilbert wanted to refuse, but Jenny didn't give him a chance. "It's settled then. Tomorrow at noon, I'll send you the location.

Make sure to be there on time."

Without staying for her meal, Jenny got up and left. For one, she didn't have any suitable candidates for Gilbert at the moment. Plus, she was afraid that Gilbert would have a chance to reject her suggestion if she stayed.

Gilbert shook his head helplessly as Jenny left. There was nothing he could do about her.

After leaving Gilbert's office, Jenny immediately called Zack and told him about the situation. On the other end of the line, Zack couldn't believe it either.

"We don't have much time left, so you need to help me out. Get me all the information you have on girls suitable for Gilbert and send it to me. I'll gather some on my end as well. Let's introduce two beautiful, eligible girls to him,"

Jenny said.

With that, she hung up and called Alec and told him the same thing, asking him to gather information on all eligible girls. With more people helping, they would have a wider reach. Jenny believed they could find Gilbert someone he would like from their wide network

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1304-Trust You After the call ended, Alec couldn't help feeling both amused and annoyed regarding Jenny's recent request. She wanted him to gather information on eligible young women around him. Was she not afraid he would develop feelings for someone else?

He delegated the task to Vincent, but Vincent felt conflicted.

"Mr. Faust, isn't this inappropriate?" he asked. "You and Miss Walter are about to get married.’ Would Jenny agree to the marriage if she knew? Vincent had witnessed the hardships they had gone through to get to where they were, so he truly hoped they could get married peacefully.

"What are you thinking? She requested this," Alec said, glancing at him. Did Vincent think so poorly of him?

Vincent let out a sigh of relief, but he was still puzzled. "This is Miss Walter’s request? Why?"

"You've been talking a lot lately," Alec said, side-eying him. Perhaps because they had spent so much time together, Alec noticed that Vincent feared him less and occasionally even exchanged jokes with him. Was he becoming more approachable?

Alec was unaware of how he had changed, but Vincent was fully aware.

Previously, Alec was difficult to deal with, but since he got together with Jenny, he had become much gentler. The cold and haughty air he had once carried himself with had completely disappeared.

Instead of asking more questions, Vincent said, "Preparations have started at the wedding venue."

"Okay, what about the wedding dress?" Alec asked.

"They are working on the one from Farance, so it should be delivered on time,"

Vincent replied.

Alec nodded in satisfaction and proceeded to ask about the wedding rings and other wedding-related matters. He had to ensure that everything was going on smoothly before he could feel reassured.

Meanwhile, after the call with Alec, Jenny began analyzing the information she had. In her opinion, all the girls on her list were outstanding and beautiful. If she were a man, she would love every one of them.

Her phone rang at that moment, which interrupted her and annoyed her.

However, when she saw that it was a call from Alfred, she decided to answer it.

If Alfred didn't call her from time to time, she might have forgotten about her own company. She chose to answer his call because of Old Mr. Faust's instructions.

She had decided to meet Mortimer.

"Jenny, have you forgotten about your Jeneration Group?" Alfred asked, sounding mildly annoyed.

With a dry laugh, Jenny answered, "Have you eaten? Let me treat you to a meal."

"Hmph, don't you dare think that that would make me continue working for you."

He had never seen an employer like Jenny, so trusting of him. He could move the entire company away, and she wouldn't even notice.

"Don't be like that. I trust you and believe you will manage the company well, which is why I'm not too worried about Jeneration Group,” Jenny said.

Sneering, Alfred replied, "Please come to the office."

"No thanks, but let's have dinner together tonight," Jenny suggested. "And invite your father.’ Alfred frowned, wondering if he had misheard. "You want me to invite my father?

Are you sure?"

"Yes, I have something to discuss with him." Jenny knew that her request was sudden and unexpected. However, she didn't have Mortimer's contact information, so that was her only means to meet him.

Alfred found it strange since Jenny and Mortimer weren't the best of friends.

Plus, Mortimer had plotted against Jenny in the past. Hence, he wondered what Jenny could have to discuss with him.

Although he was puzzled, he didn’t deny her request as he figured that her motives would only become clear during the dinner

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1305-They Won't Do Anything to Me Upon learning that Jenny would have dinner with Alfred and Mortimer in the evening, Alec insisted on going with them. He was worried about Jenny meeting them alone.

In the car, Alec was driving while Jenny leaned against the car window. In annoyance, she said, "You don't have to worry so much. They won't do anything to me.” "Who knows?" Alec didn't want to take any risks. "I'll accompany you. If they have any ill intentions, they won't dare to act on it."

"Alright, alright, whatever you say." Jenny didn't want to argue with Alec. After all, she would be discussing the matters entrusted to her by Old Mr. Faust.

Hence, there probably wouldn't be any conflicts or arguments.

The car soon arrived at the restaurant. Alfred and Mortimer hadn't arrived yet, so Jenny chose a seat and waited for them.

It didn't take long before the two of them arrived. They were visibly surprised to see Alec there as well. But when they thought about it, it was expected as Jenny and Alec were about to get married. Hence, Alec would be worried if Jenny met them alone.

Mortimer felt a little bitter knowing that Alec still had his guard up against him, afraid that he would plot against Jenny again.

"Please take a seat," Jenny said, waving them over when she spotted them.

Alfred and Mortimer walked over to her table and sat down.

Alfred didn't bother to greet Alec. Since their relationship was destined not to improve, he found no reason to exchange perfunctory greetings. He took out the documents he had brought and handed them to Jenny. "These are the recent projects of the company. Take a look."

Jenny didn't refuse. Since Alfred was willing to report to her, she had no reason to reject. It was just a matter of spending a few minutes to see how the projects were going. However, she couldn't understand the details of the project. After a brief look, she returned the documents to Alfred." Everything looks fine. It's up to you to decide."

"Okay," Alfred put away the documents, aware that Jenny didn't understand them. But that didn't matter, as he just wanted her to be aware of the projects.

After discussing about Jeneration Group, Alfred looked at Jenny and asked, "So, what else do you want to talk about?"

Jenny didn't plan to beat around the bush either. She looked at Mortimer and said, "Alec and I just returned from Parrington a few days ago.

Grandpa hopes that you can go back and accompany him."

Mortimer was stunned when he heard that.

"His health is not good now, and as his only son, you should be by his side,"

Jenny added. She didn't mention how he was inconveniencing Alfred by staying with him as she was afraid it would make Mortimer unhappy.

When Mortimer fell silent, Alfred said, "It's up to you. If you want to go back, go back. If you don't want to, it's fine to stay in Bardoff City."

Before he realized it, Mortimer's gaze turned to Alec, clearly wanting to hear his opinion. Unfortunately, Alec completely ignored him and didn't say a word. After a moment, Mortimer finally made a decision.

"I will go back to Parrington."

Even though Alfred was taking care of him, it was not his hometown. It would be better for him to return to Parrington and stay with Old Mr. Faust. He already had too many regrets and didn't want to miss spending time with his father in his final moments.

With that, Mortimer was about to leave. He couldn't stand how Alec ignored him.

"Since we're already here, let's have dinner before leaving. There's no rush,"

Jenny said, leaving Mortimer no chance to refuse.

They all had dinner together. While The atmosphere at the table wasn't particularly pleasant, it didn't escalate into an argument.

 

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1306-The Last Time The next day, Jenny brought a young girl she had chosen to meet Gilbert. At present, nothing was more important to Jenny than finding a suitable partner for Gilbert. She didn't want her brother to become a priest at Mount Wallington.

"Gilbert, this is Kitty Sunders," Jenny announced, introducing her to Gilbert.

Hearing that, Gilbert looked up at the two women in front of him. novelxo With a blank expression on his face, he answered, "Hello, Miss Sunders."

"Hello, Gilbert. We've met before."

Kitty was stunned when she received a phone call from Jenny. She couldn't believe that Jenny would call her. After listening to the whole story, she became even more flabbergasted when Jenny expressed wanting to bring Kitty to meet Gilbert for a blind date. It seemed like a scam. However, since it was Jenny, novelxo she chose to believe her.

Only now, when she saw Gilbert before her, she confirmed Jenny wasn't joking and truly wanted to introduce her to him.

Meanwhile, Gilbert was puzzled because he didn't remember Kitty.

With a smile, Kitty explained, "We met at an event once."

Back then, she had greeted Gilbert, but he hadn't paid her any attention.

Although Gilbert's company was not among the best in Bardoff City, he was still favored by many wealthy young ladies. Everyone thought he had potential and a promising future. Moreover, he was handsome, making it hard for anyone to turn him down.

"Oh, really? Sorry, I don't recall." Gilbert didn't feel any connection with Kitty.

The only reason he had shown up was to appease Jenny.

The conversation between the two was awkward. novelxo Although Jenny tried her best to bring up interesting topics and keep the atmosphere lively, she ultimately failed.

After leaving the restaurant with Kitty, even before Jenny had a chance to speak, Kitty said, "He doesn't seem to like me."

"Well…"

"I understand. We just didn't have a connection," novel.xo Kitty wasn't upset.

Blind dates were like that; there was always a possibility of it not working out, so there was nothing to feel sad about.

Jenny sighed, "I'm sorry for making you come all this way for nothing."

"It's not for nothing. My family benefited from it, didn't they?" Kitty smiled. She didn't participate in the blind date for free as her family obtained a project from Jenny.

After parting ways with Kitty, Jenny turned and novel.xo walked back into the restaurant, where Gilbert was still sitting.

"Gilbert, do you think Miss Sunders isn't good?" Jenny pouted, pretending to be upset.

"She's fine, but she has nothing to do with me," Gilbert replied, focusing on nothing but eating his food.

Jenny disagreed, immediately retorting, n.ove.lx.o "How can you say that? As long as you're willing, that will change right away."

Hearing that, Gilbert looked at her, trying to tell if she was joking.

Jenny chuckled awkwardly, realizing that her words were a bit silly. "Gilbert, you should think for yourself."

"Jenny, I understand your concerns, but some things cannot be forced. Besides, I don't have any plans to find a partner right now," Gilbert said. He felt it necessary to make it clear to Jenny as he didn't want her to keep introducing women to him constantly.

"Gilbert, you really won't give it a try? What if-" n.ove.lx.o Jenny sighed, feeling hopeless.

Without hesitation, Gilbert shook his head. "There are no 'what ifs.' Jenny, this will be the last time."

"Gilbert…" Jenny watched him stand up to leave, feeling worried.

Gilbert turned back to look at her. After a moment of deliberation, he said," You don't need to worry about me. Whatever decisions I make in the future, they will be what makes me happy, so you should be happy for me."

With that, Gilbert left, leaving Jenny sitting there.

She knew that Gilbert was right, but whenever she thought about him becoming a priest, it just didn't bring her joy.

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1307-You Smell Amazing Jenny attempted to introduce potential partners to Gilbert in the following days, but her efforts were in vain as Gilbert had no intention of meeting any of them.

Eventually, Jenny understood how resolute he was and decided to stop wasting her energy.

As the wedding day crept closer, Jenny had to focus on her wedding preparations as there was only a month left. However, there wasn't much for her to do since Alec had already taken care of everything. All she needed to do was to try on wedding dresses, so she had it easy.

At the hospital, Jenny resumed her work. She was in the middle of organizing her patient's records after finishing her rounds when she was called to the director's office.

"You wanted to see me?" Jenny asked as she entered the office. The director immediately stood up to greet her.

"Please have a seat, Dr. Walter." The director was very polite toward her, which made Jenny feel uneasy. However, she didn't pay much attention to it as she understood why he acted that way.

After she sat down, the director got straight to the point and said, "Dr. Walter, there's a hospital abroad inviting us for a conference. The neurosurgery department has selected you as the representative. What do you think?"

It was a good opportunity for Jenny. She didn't need to do much, and it was an excellent chance for her to broaden her horizons and meet new people on behalf of the neurosurgery department.

"But…my wedding is coming up soon." She knew it was a good opportunity, but considering the wedding, her first thought was to decline the offer.

Understanding her concern, the director quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, the conference will last about a week. It will be over before it affects your wedding.’ "When do I leave?" Jenny asked.

"Tomorrow," the director replied.

Leaving the next day and returning within a week wouldn't have much impact.

Hence, she decided to agree. "Alright, I'll go.' The director smiled, happy with her response.

After returning to her office, Jenny called Alec and informed him about it. Alec didn't have any objections; he was just a bit concerned about Jenny.

"There's quite a bit of work over here lately, so I may not be able to accompany you," he said. Lately, he had been busy optimizing the company's operations to free up time for their honeymoon. Nonetheless, he was worried about not being able to accompany Jenny.

Jenny didn't see it as a big deal and said, "I'm not a child. I don't need you to accompany me everywhere I go. I'm just informing you about this, not asking you to come with me."

"You may not be a child, but I want to pamper you like you are one," Alec replied. Jenny fell silent. Imagining her expression, Alec laughed. "Fine, okay, we’ll talk about it when I get home tonight," he said.

With that, the call ended. Jenny put away her phone and busied herself with work just as Alec did. After all, they both had their own things to take care of.

When Alec returned home in the evening, he found Jenny in the kitchen.

"Jenny, are you cooking for me?" He couldn't believe his eyes and even felt a bit nervous. He wasn't confident in her cooking skills.

Jenny was in the middle of preparing the ingredients. Turning around, she answered, "I've already prepared the ingredients for you. You're in charge of cooking." She didn't have much talent when it came to cooking. To be exact, she was a complete mess when it came to cooking.

"Okay, whatever you say," Alec said, walking into the kitchen. He hugged Jenny from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. ’Jenny, you smell amazing."

Alec was reluctant to let go. Blushing, Jenny turned around and returned his hug.

"Let's eat first."

"But I want to taste you first."

Just like that, Jenny was lifted off the ground as Alec carried her straight to the bedroom.

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1308-ed out of bed, put on his clothes, and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Although Jenny had scolded him, she didn't really blame him. She just felt a little embarrassed as she never expected she would someday live such an intimate life with Alec.

After staying in the room for a while, she took a shower before going to the kitchen downstairs, where Alec had begun to cook. Seeing his skilled movements, it was hard to imagine that he had just been messing around with her in bed.

"Just wait a little longer. The food is almost ready."

Fortunately, Jenny had already prepared the ingredients, making everything faster as he only needed to cook them. Jenny leaned against the kitchen doorway, watching Alec cook, thoroughly enjoying the moment.

About ten minutes later, he was done cooking and placed the food on the table, inviting Jenny to come and eat. As usual, the food tasted amazing.

"If Faust Group goes bankrupt in the future, you can start a restaurant. That way, we won't go hungry."

"Well, it would be quite difficult for Faust Group to go bankrupt," Alec said, chuckling. Saying that was him being humble. The truth was, it was almost impossible for Faust Group to go bankrupt under his control.

Jenny could see the confidence in his eyes, and she didn't find anything wrong with it. Alec had always been confident.

"How long will you be away on your business trip?" Alec asked, sounding a little reluctant to let her go.

After taking a bite, Jenny answered, "One week."

"Well, it won't affect the wedding." Alec felt that a week wasn't too long.

Jenny nodded. "Yes, I made sure of that. If it were too long, I wouldn't go."

"Okay, how many people from your hospital are going?" Alec asked. Evidently, he was still worried.

Jenny thought for a moment before replying, "Probably one representative from each department."

"Has everything been arranged for you?" Although he technically owned Bardoff Hospital, he didn't manage the internal affairs and hadn't even inquired about it.

Jenny hadn't asked about that. "I think so. I doubt we need to worry about such things.” In her opinion, Alec was worried over nothing. Surely, the hospital would take care of everything.

Hearing her reply, Alec didn't ask any more questions. "Alright, take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything."

Even if she was abroad, he would rush over at the first opportunity.

"Sure, don't worry," Jenny answered. She didn't refuse Alec's goodwill.

After dinner, the two of them messed around in bed again before finally falling asleep.

The plane took off at 9 am the next morning. Alec accompanied Jenny to the airport, where she boarded the plane and disappeared from his sight. A moment later, he took out his phone and made a call.

"We can start moving now."

Jenny had no idea that a huge surprise awaited her when she returned from overseas. Meanwhile, Alec had no idea that due to his mistake, the surprise would turn into a shock that almost impacted their wedding.

After the phone call, Alec left the airport. He had many things to attend to at Faust Group. There were still many things to do for the wedding, and organizing a wedding was far from being as simple as he had imagined. However, he savored every moment of it.

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1309-What is She Doing Here Again?

Ten hours later, the plane landed at the airport in Eldezar. As Jenny walked out of the airport, she immediately called Alec to let him know she had arrived safely. After hanging up, Jenny followed the other hospital staff to the hotel.

novelxo After a brief rest, she started busying herself with preparations for the conference the next day.

Alec was busy too. The villa they had been staying in had already been emptied. At that moment, he was looking at a new house in front of him with a smile. novelxo That happened to be his and Jenny's new home.

He had bought the previous villa because Evan was living there. Since it was far from Jenny's hospital and Faust Group's headquarters, Alec had long wanted to move out. Moreover, Evan was already a thing of the past, and there was no need for Alec to continue living there because of him.

He watched the new house slowly fill up with his and Jenny’s belongings. Aside from the location, it seemed that not much else had changed. Of course, it wasn't completely the same as their previous house. Portraits of both of them were hung everywhere, and anyone could tell it was the house of a newly wedded couple.

While he was admiring the decorations, his phone rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Alec rejected the call. Then, he received a text message. As he read it, his face instantly darkened. The happiness from appreciating the decoration in front of him was completely wiped from his face. After a moment, he walked out of the house with his phone and called the unknown number.

During the conference, Jenny was quite busy. novelxo Regardless of how busy she was, she would still call Alec every day. Alec, on the other hand, seemed busy, too, as he always ended the call quickly.

Jenny didn't pay much attention to it. She knew Alec was busy preparing for the wedding, so she assumed he must be swamped.

Thinking about the wedding, she felt a little guilty. After all, Alec was taking care of all the wedding preparations while she lived a carefree life. novel.xo Hence, she decided to return to Clusia earlier and surprise Alec.

Although Jenny was supposed to take the flight back home the next day, she wanted to surprise Alec, so she boarded an earlier flight back to Clusia.

Meanwhile, Alec was unaware of that. Almost all the wedding preparations were done, including the wedding gown and the rings, which had already been delivered. novel.xo All they had to do was to wait for the day to come.

Vincent knocked on the door and came in, looking uneasy. n.ove.lx.o "Mr. Faust, Miss Blue is downstairs. She wants to see you."

"What is she doing here again?" Alec felt irritated whenever he heard Quinn's name. He had done what he could for her. What else did she expect him to do?

"I don't know, she just said she has something to discuss with you," Vincent said.

Alec frowned. Considering that Jenny would return soon, he decided, "Let her in."

Before Jenny came back, he had to deal with Quinn so that she would stop seeking him out all the time. There was nothing between them. He had no feelings for her now, and he was bewildered when he received her call.

Given their past connection, Alec had agreed to help her when she had come to him for help. However, he never expected that helping her once wouldn't be enough, and now she was back again. Alec wanted to find out what she was up to. n.ove.lx.o She'd better explain everything to avoid any trouble in the future.

To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 1310-Don't Have the Energy to Participate in Your Play Although she was in her late twenties, Quinn maintained her excellent figure.

Donning a seductive fishtail skirt, she slowly approached Alec." nvëlx.o Alec, even if you don't like me anymore, there's no need to avoid me."

"Avoiding you? I'm busy," Alec said, glancing at her without a trace of emotion in his eyes. To him, Quinn was just someone he used to know, not someone he was ever close with.

"Are you really that busy? You seem quite free to me," novelxo Quinn lightly laughed, covering her mouth. She made herself at home and took a seat on the sofa.

Alec was in no mood to waste time with her. "Why did you come?"

"It's about the thing I was telling you about," Quinn said.

"I can't help you with that," Alec said, refusing her outright. "Take care of your own matters. I'm just an acquaintance, not your father."

"Alec, are you afraid your wife would get jealous if you got too close to me? "

Quinn asked, laughing as if she was mocking Alec for being henpecked.

Alec didn't think that was anything to be ashamed about. Hence, he didn't deny it. "Since you know it, you shouldn't have come here. If it makes Jenny angry, novel.xo you can't ever make up for it, no matter how hard you try."

"Alec, how can you be so heartless? You used to like me," Quinn said, pretending to be hurt. When he used to like her, he had never protected her like that.

That was in the past. It's been many years, and it's over."

"Alright, let's not talk about the past. But I really need your help." novel.xo Quinn stopped smiling. If Alec didn't help her, she had no other way.

Alec felt a headache coming on. "How do you want me to help you?"

"Help me out with that man. I've been by his side for so many years-l should do something about him," Quinn said, examining her pretty nails while speaking to Alec.

Alec was speechless. "What do you want to do?"

Unfortunately, Alec didn't want to get involved. novelxo "I can't help you. I'm getting married and don't have the energy to participate in your charade."

"Alec-"

"Quinn," Alec interrupted her, "just because I was willing to help you before and give you a place to stay doesn't mean I still like you. I did that because I felt obligated to do so, as were once classmates. Do you understand?"

His words were harsh, leaving Quinn no room for negotiation. It made her feel sad. "Alright, I understand."

"Perfect. If there's nothing else, don't look for me again. If others see us together, they might assume we have some kind of relationship,' Alec said, reminding her again.

Although Quinn found his behavior heartless, she also envied Jenny. What an amazing person must she be to receive such undivided affection from Alec?
