Semua Bab To Be Yours Again: Bab 11 - Bab 20

On the car ride away from the hospital, Faye's question was still on Alec's mind.Why did he seem to care so much about Jenny? He couldn't figure out why. Perhaps her strange behavior intrigued him, and he wanted to find out why. Maybe that was all.Suddenly, his phone rang, jarring him from his thoughts. He scratched his forehead in annoyance and answered the call."Speak.""Mr. Faust, I have examined your activities for the past five years, and you haven't met Dr. Walter in any of them. But the strange thing is that no one knows where Dr. Walter went after she retired two years ago, so it was hard to find out her activities for the past two years. Why don't we ask Mr. Wagner for help?"Paul Wagner was an expert when it came to matters of the underground. Whereas they couldn't get the information they wanted through ordinary means, he might have a shot at it. That was the reason Vincent made that suggestion.After a long silence, Vincent thought Alec would agree. To his surprise, Alec

The Walker family had been working well with the Faust Group thus far, so Vincent had a hard time understanding why Alec suddenly wanted to put a halt to it."Yes," said Alec, nodding as he tossed a document at Vincent. "We will be working with the Lawrence family in the future." The Lawrence family? Surprised, Vincent picked up the file. When he read it, he immediately understood what was going on. It seemed that Faye's family had explicitly asked to take over this deal, so the Walker family was the victim of their request."About the people downstairs—""Send them away. I don't have time to see them.""Alright."It was getting dark, and the employees of the Faust Group had already left, yet Alec was still nowhere to be seen."Jenny, do you think Alec has decided to make my dad's company go bankrupt?" asked Stephanie anxiously."We will find a way through this." Jenny was worried too, but she knew she had to be calm. Just then, she suddenly spotted Vincent exiting the elevator from

“When we become rich, do you still need to be afraid that he’ll look down on you?” Mr. Lawrence asked her in response. Voice full of blame, he continued, “Look at you. It’s been so long, and yet you still haven’t managed to win Alec over. It seems like you must not be his type.”“You!” Faye’s chest rose and fell out of rage. She wished she never had parents like them. She turned around and shut her room door with a bang, reluctant to say another word to them.…When Alec arrived at the Old Mansion, Jenny had already left. Looking at the empty living room, he couldn’t help but frown. “Where’s Grandpa?” he asked as he glanced at Warren.“Mr. Faust is in his study,” Warren replied.As soon as he said that, Alec was prepared to head to the study. Just as he lifted his feet, he suddenly recalled something and asked, “Did Grandpa have any guests over just now? I heard some voices at the door.”Plus, that voice sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before. If it weren’t for Faye

Alec continued, “Such a shame. Her plan is going to fail miserably. What makes her think that I will listen to my grandfather?”Jenny came back to her senses. She was slightly taken aback. So, Alec thought Stephanie had gone to see Mr. Faust last night?She recalled how Warren always addressed her as “Miss Walter.”It appeared that Alec must have misunderstood. It was Walter, not Walker. Unfortunately, he didn’t know that. She found it kind of funny, but she couldn’t get herself to laugh after hearing what Alec had said. Alec meant he wouldn’t let the Walker family off the hook. “Is there no way to get around this? Mr. Faust, don’t you think that ending your collaboration with the Walker family just because of this is a little too capricious?” She really couldn’t understand how Alec could be so irrational.“I always get my way. Do you have a problem with that, Dr. Walter?” He sneered, ignoring what Jenny had just said. Seeing him like this, Jenny realized there was perhaps no room for

The three of them fixed their gazes on Alec. Jenny prayed that he would refuse since she really didn’t want to sit together and have a meal with this man.It would totally affect her mood.“You decide,” he said. That wasn’t the answer Jenny wanted to hear.Jenny was speechless. “Dr. Walter, Alec is fine with it. What about you?” She looked at Jenny smilingly.Jenny was super reluctant. She shifted her gaze to Gilbert. “What do you think?”She kept giving Gilbert hints with her eyes, but instead, he said, “I’m okay with anything.”“Okay with anything? Gilbert, what are you trying to do?” Jenny thought.Faye and Jenny sat next to each other, while Alec and Gilbert sat across them. Alec was sitting right opposite Jenny, so she could see his face every time she looked up. This made her feel extremely uncomfortable. “Dr. Walter, is this your boyfriend? He looks like a great guy. No wonder you didn’t want me to introduce anyone to you.” Staring at the posh-looking Gilbert opposite her, Fay
