Semua Bab To Be Yours Again: Bab 921 - Bab 930

"Evan," Jenny greeted, turning to let Evan come in.The man went into the living room with several grocery bags in hand. "I didn't know what housewarming gift would be best for you, so I thought I'd make dinner instead." "I've never tried your cooking before." Jenny smiled, surprised by the gesture. Did everyone she knew know how to cook, save for her?"You're in for a treat then." Evan then brought the bags to the kitchen.Jenny followed along. She'd thought to invite Evan out for dinner after a quick chat, so she didn't refuse his gesture to cook now.Evan started taking out the ingredients and washing them in the sink. "Why don't you cook later? It's still early." Jenny asked. She'd actually just had lunch. Her original plan was to nap, though she'd long lost her sleepiness due to Janet Hale's situation and partially because of Evan's presence."You're right. It isn't even the afternoon yet." Evan set down the washed vegetables and went to the living room. He scanned his su

Not seeing the need to worry further now that Vincent knew his boss had a plan in mind, he changed the topic. "Well, sir. This is the info on the shares you wanted me to look up. Unfortunately, most of them are reluctant to sell."Faust Group was still churning out dividends annually, so the shareholders wouldn't sell their rights off that easily, even if Alec were to offer a great price."As expected." He didn't mind. Those shareholders would be scrambling to sell their shares once something happened to Faust Group later. "What about those projects?"Faust Group was a large company handled by an equally large family. Alec doubted all their projects were acquired by clean hands. All he needed to do was do some digging for dirt to come up.Vincent nodded and handed Alec another sheaf of documents. "Many issues turned up for two projects in particular. I've listed them out for you here, sir.""Thank you. You can leave it here." "Do you plan to use these to take down the other Faus

Alec went right up to Jenny's apartment the moment he came up to his floor. "Come on in. Dinner's ready." Jenny stepped aside to let him in."Did you make these?" Alec asked in surprise, seeing the food on the table."No, no. These are the foods you ordered." Jenny didn't intend to lie. She had merely heated up the food Alec sent over.Alec frowned. "You haven't eaten?""I have." Jenny met his gaze, then looked away. "Evan came to visit after hearing I have my own place outside. We had dinner."Alec's expression instantly turned ugly. So that was why Jenny didn't reply to his texts."It was just dinner, nothing special. Don't overthink it," Jenny explained.Unfortunately, Alec was already on the jealousy train. "Really? What I'm concerned about is if you're the one underestimating things."He was sure Jenny knew the kind of expectations Evan held for her. Their dinner was most likely more special to him than Jenny thought.Jenny rolled her eyes. "Are you eating or not? I can

It was nearly noon when Jenny called Stephanie again. This time someone answered, though, to her surprise, it wasn't Stephanie, but a stranger."Is this your phone? You can have it back for five hundy, or I'll toss it into the river." A man's voice came from the other end of the call.Jenny blinked in surprise but swiftly recovered. "Did you find the phone somewhere?""What'd you think? You're not gonna say I stole it, are you? I'm telling you, I didn't steal it. I just found it by the road." The man sounded worried as if he really might get in trouble.Now Jenny was worried. How did Stephanie's phone end up by the roadside?"Do you want it back or not?" "Yes. Send me a location. I'll come to meet you.""Nope. Just send me the money, and I'll have it posted back to you by courier."Jenny scoffed. "What difference would that make? If I wanted to report you to the police, I could track you down just from your bank account records.""You—""If you don't have what it takes, then

There were no cameras at that corner, so Jenny wouldn't know what happened exactly based on the footage alone. She then left for that location, ready to find any clues leading her to figure out what happened.Unfortunately, she found nothing. There was nowhere to hide behind that corner, nor were there any signs of struggle. It was as if Stephanie disappeared into thin air. Jenny went back to the footage, determined to find some clues. Sure enough, she soon noticed a specific van leaving the area.It had stopped by the sidewalk just before Stephanie walked around the corner, then left a little after she disappeared down it. No other person or car has come or left from that corner since.Jenny sent the car plate number to Melissa, who quickly reported that the vehicle attached to the number had long been reported missing, so there were no available leads to track it down.But Jenny didn't plan on giving up. She returned to the footage, rewatching the van and memorizing its feature
