Semua Bab To Be Yours Again: Bab 931 - Bab 940

She didn't expect the inside of the villa to appear so calm. There was little to no one inside the space as the butler led her through. The interior of the villa was far better than the exterior, too, like it had been under proper maintenance for a long time.There was a small mansion to the side, which appeared to look just as rundown, though Jenny guessed that was only a mask for its actual furnished interior. A room on the first floor of the mansion caught Jenny's attention, as it was surrounded by guards. Stephanie might be in there, Jenny thought. She hurriedly memorized the place in mind.The butler brought her into the mansion, where Jenny finally met the man orchestrating this whole charade—Zeke Faust."Have a seat, Miss Walter." The old man nodded at her, gesturing at a seat to the side. He was being more than courteous right now, so Jenny quietly went to take a seat.Silence ensued. The old man then asked, "Aren't you curious as to why I've asked you to come, Miss Wal

"What do you mean, sir? The Watkins were the ones responsible for your son's death. I'm sure both evidence and the law will agree," Alec said, still polite. No way would he admit to having killed Xavier now."Whether it was you or the Watkins, I'm sure we all know the truth of the matter. So, it's pointless to try and argue the specifics.""Do you mean to avenge your son today, then, sir?" Alec asked.Zeke frowned, noticing how fearless Alec seemed. It was almost as if he didn't care that he was going to die.But that was impossible, right? There was no one alive who wouldn't be scared of dying.Still, Zeke had his butler toss a handgun to Alec, just in case. "Here you go."Alec snorted, picking the gun up and fiddling with it. "You really think I'd die for Jenny Walter?"The safety on the gun pressed against Jenny's temple was swiftly turned off. Alec's expression fell along with the ensuing sound. God, he was so scared right now.Even if the Fausts wouldn't be able to handl

After Zeke and Jenny had gone back into the building, Luke cocked the gun up, grinning in glee as he gazed at Alec. "Start groveling, and I just might give you a quick death, Alec!"Alec glared at him, cursing, "Fucking idiot.""What did you say?!" Luke yelled, not expecting Alec to be so arrogant even at a time like this. Wasn't he worried he'd die?Alec ignored him, turning to Evan instead. "Truce?""Truce." Evan nodded. Better to bring Jenny to safety first before getting Alec to die.Gunshots immediately rang out, and if not for one of Luke's men pulling him to the side at the very last second, he would've instantly gotten hit."Fuck! Kill them all! Now!" Luke roared.War immediately broke out with casualties on both sides, though everyone stayed away from the mansion where Zeke and Jenny were in.Meanwhile, Jenny listened to the gunfight outside while her heart stuttered with each bang. Could Alec and Evan escape from it unscathed?"Do you think Alec will make it out al

Jenny and the rest were being interrogated in the Bardoff City Police Headquarters. She didn't mind, of course. She was one of the victims in all this, after all. All that worried her were Alec and Evan since they'd participated in the gunfight earlier. Who knows what instrument of the law might be held against their necks?Stephanie was in another interrogation room, and sitting across from her was Leonard himself. "So, you don't know anything that went on?""Mhm." It's not like Stephanie was lying. She really was clueless.Leonard nodded. "Alright. You can go now.""Huh? That's it?" Things had been so tense when she came. She'd imagined the situation to be more complicated than it was right now.Leonard stood up, ready to escort her out. "Come on then."Stephanie followed behind him, still confused. "What'll happen to the others?""You mean Jenny specifically, don't you?""Yeah. She's innocent, by the way."Leonard stopped, then turned back to look at Stephanie. "You really

When Alec, Evan, and Jenny walked out of the station, they met Zeke just as he was leaving, though the old man's expression was clearly more upset than anyone else's."Oh? Are you sure you wanna leave your grandson back in there? Not worried his tongue will slip?" Alec scoffed. Leonard was pretty brave. He was adamant about someone taking responsibility for what happened. Hence, upon his insistence, Luke could only be the scapegoat."Watch yourself, Alec!" Zeke barked out furiously."What do you mean, sir?" Alec gasped in faux shock, eyes still colored with disdain. "I'm only concerned about you and your family."Zeke sneered, then left with his men.Alec, Jenny, and Evan then spotted Paul and Stephanie waiting outside. Stephanie hurriedly went up to Jenny, scanning her body for injuries. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?""No, I'm okay." Jenny shook her head, glad to see Stephanie safe and sound. Thank goodness, or everything that happened today would've gone to waste."It was
