Chapter 881 Whatever You Say

Jenny coughed, obviously awkward.Alec had indeed often asked her out during the time he was hospitalized, and she had always refused. She didn't think he'd be talking about it now. Did he have to be so petty?She said nothing else. They would eat in the cafeteria, then. The food there was honestly pretty good, at least to her. As for Alec's tastes, that was none of her business."I saw Zeke in the hospital this morning. He was here to see you, wasn't he?" Jenny asked, curious.Alec nodded. "You say you don't care about me, but you do, really. Haven't you noticed?""What do you mean? Zeke was so noticeable. I would have seen him as long as I wasn't blind." On top of that, everyone in the hospital was talking about it. Even if she hadn't seen him, she would have known.What a pity that Alec couldn't care less about her denial. "He was here to see me. He's caught two of Xavier's killers and wants me to interrogate them.""What?" Jenny instantly grew worried. "They won't give you a

Chapter 882 What Lead

Jenny didn't see the couple fight. She was staring at Alec. "How is the food? It isn't too bad, is it?""It's pretty good. It's no wonder you come here often," he said.Jenny pouted, still feeling a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry. I'm not refusing you on purpose. I just haven't thought it through yet.""I know." Alec smiled. He understood her inner struggles. If it were him, he'd be struggling to make a decision, too. He wouldn't know if he were a reliable shoulder to cry on.Jenny opened her mouth, wanting to say something. But the more she looked at Alec, the harder it was to speak."You don't have to overthink it. Go with the flow. I'd still be a pretty confident person." Alec smiled. He believed that Jenny liked him, so he didn't worry too much.Jenny nodded, saying nothing as she continued to eat.In the Watkins' residence, Blake watched as the news on the Fausts was deleted one by one. She couldn't help guessing what the family was like now.Who had killed Xavier?She kn

Chapter 883 Do You Want to Hurt Him?

Blake was stunned. Of course. Even if it was Yakov, Zeke would not press charges against him. He might even cover up for him.After a moment's consideration, she had her answer.Xavier's killer couldn't be Yakov. Even if it was, Zeke would clear his name.And if it couldn't be Yakov, there was only one other person.Alec Faust!"Mom, do you think this could be Alec's doing?" Blake asked.Mrs. Watkins was stunned, but then she shook her head. "He probably doesn't have the ability. Besides, the day it happened, Alec nearly died.""Nearly died?" Blake was shocked. After being forbidden from getting involved with the family business, she lost her means of gathering intel. She had no idea about it at all.Mrs. Watkins didn't hide anything from her since it wasn't considered big news. "On the day Luke invited him to the opening of a turf club, he lost his footing and fell down a cliff. He nearly died. Your father thinks it's not because he lost his footing but because Xavier and Luke

Chapter 884 You Killed My Father!

Alec walked into Faust Manor. At once, he saw Luke walking toward him grimly."I know you did it, Alec!" Luke glared at him, hatred seeping through his eyes.Alec acted dumb, asking, "I don't know what you mean.""Quit with the act. You killed my father, didn't you?" Luke got closer to him, looking as if he would fight him.Alec waved his hand, pretending to be innocent. "You're using me as a scapegoat. Don't you remember what I was doing when your father died? I nearly died in your hands. Why do you have the memory of a goldfish?"Luke was at a loss for words. He didn't think it would be Alec since he simply didn't have the time or energy to do it.However, Zeke was sure that it was him. Luke believed him."Zeke told you things, didn't he? Don't be so stupid, Luke." Alec shook his head in exasperation, thinking that Luke was beyond help.Luke was upset. Before he could ask what Alec meant, the man spoke. "Zeke has only two sons. And now one of them is dead. Forget who killed h

Chapter 885 Who Do You Think You Are?

She did not continue with the topic and decided to bring up Jolene. "I hear that Jolene did not follow Rowena in the end.""Yeah." James nodded and then smiled. "I knew you would ask about this.""I was just curious about what you were thinking. Otherwise, I'd worry." Jenny thought that Jolene could not compare to James. However, if James accidentally liked Jolene back, she could do nothing about it. She was worried that something like that would happen, which was why she was so anxious to ask him the question.James ate and looked out the window as if considering his answer. Jenny grew anxious.After a while, he said, "I wasn't really thinking. I just thought a free nanny would be nice. I wouldn't be the one at a disadvantage, anyway. Why would I refuse?""You're not someone who has to cut back on a nanny's fees," Jenny said. This excuse was a stretch. It was unbelievable."Well, I just thought it would be too easy to just let her go like that. Making her stay is a sort of pun

Chapter 886 Your Feelings for Me Are Repulsive

Jolene was shocked to her core. "Why…why would she think that?"She was extremely agitated. She really wanted to know if James had any feelings for her, any at all."Now that I think of it, you think the same, don't you? You wanted to leave, but then you came back." James was no fool. Jolene's actions were weird. She definitely had an ulterior motive.Jolene was fearful of his gaze. She waved her hands quickly. "What? I don't…""Really?" James straightened his back, leaning toward her.With the close distance, Jolene was utterly dazed. Ever since that night in the hotel, they had not been this close. She could hear her heartbeat, beating a mile a minute. In her frenzied state, she suddenly said, "That's right. I thought you liked me, even if only a little bit."James smiled. But it was not a smile that heralded good news.In the spur of the moment, like a crazed woman, Jolene kissed him instead of pulling back.For a moment, James had no idea how to react when the warmth pres

Chapter 887 I Want to Give Up

Jolene didn't end up kneeling until the morning. She was so tired at night that she had dozed off. She thought that James would scold her harshly in the morning. However, when she woke up, he had left the villa, and she had a blanket around her shoulders.She looked at the blanket, smiling.Jenny had no idea about what had happened between James and Jolene. After her meal with him yesterday, she had no other intentions of interfering. It was between them, after all. Although Jenny didn't like Jolene, she couldn't break them up on purpose.She didn't want to care about it any longer, opting to let things unfold naturally. She went to the hospital to work. It was just like any regular hospital day but with different patients.Sometimes, when Jenny looked at them, she'd wonder if she could save more people if she were stronger."Doctor." A tiny voice interrupted her thoughts. Jenny looked down, seeing a young girl. Her mother was currently under Jenny's care.She bent over and p

Chapter 888 It's Part of the Process

In the end, Jenny couldn't convince her to undergo the surgery. She had no way to solve her problems. Although she was confident in the surgery, she couldn't guarantee success.Of course, Jenny could pay for the surgery. However, it would not solve the problem. People like her were rampant, and there would be more in the future. She couldn't save them all.Besides, when Jenny suggested the idea, the mother refused at once. She didn't know what to do.Feeling frustrated, Jenny knocked on the director's door."Jenny," he said politely. He knew she was skillful despite her young age and knew of her identity.Jenny smiled at him and sat down. "Patient number 23 says that she wants to be discharged."The director was stunned. He was trying to remember who it was. He soon did. She was a mother with a little girl next to her. It was quite memorable."Why so sudden? Isn't her surgery scheduled after two weeks?" The director was surprised. He had seen her records and knew that surgery co

Chapter 889 Love Turned to Hate

Jenny walked out of the director's office. Her work today was basically done. Because of her low spirits, she left the hospital to rest at home.Alec called right at that moment. After his stay in the hospital, their relationship changed for the better. They contacted each other frequently.When Jenny got to the coffee shop, Alec was already waiting."Chilly, isn't it? Here, have something warm." Alec pointed at the hot coffee on the table, expressing his concern.Jenny nodded. The first notes of winter were descending, and the wind was growing frostier. Even her coat couldn't keep her warm. Thank goodness the coffee shop had its heater on. After downing the cup of hot coffee, the cold left her bones, and she grew warm."You got off work early today. Looks like nothing much went on in the hospital today," Alec said. He just wanted to know more about Jenny.Jenny nodded. She was disheartened; perhaps it was because winter was coming and because of the mother and daughter in the ho

Chapter 890 I Wish I Had Time for You Every Day

Alec couldn't be sure if her love had turned into hate. He wasn't even sure if Blake was the one behind it. He had given his findings to the old man so that he could deal with it.If someone in Faust Manor could be bribed that easily, was there any security in that house?Alec didn't think there was.Zeke had the same idea as him when he knew someone in Faust Manor had been bribed. If Watkins' people tampered with his food, he would die a hundred times over.Before Alec came to see Jenny, a great inspection had occurred in Faust Manor. There were probably many people who would be driven out.As for Xavier's murder, by the looks of it, the Watkins would be blamed. It was their own fault for interfering now."No wonder you had the time for coffee today," Jenny said. Alec was not only capable. He was also extremely lucky at times. He wouldn't have known who else to blame if it weren't for the Watkins."I wish I had time for you every day, but I worry you'll think I'm annoying." He
