To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)

Chapter 107 I Know the Limits

Jenny seemed to be warning him that she would not go easy with him if he crossed a boundary, even if they were close. Max nodded with a smile and whispered, "Don't worry. I know the limits."

His only goal was to irk Alec, and he would not do anything that would bring her trouble. Their close proximity made her uneasy, and she glared at him. After that, she walked to a corner and sat down in a quiet area to rest.

"Jenny." Morgan came up to her with a smile and handed her a glass of champagne. Jenny nodded as a show of thanks and asked, "Where are your parents? Why aren't you with them?"

"Look, they're over there. I think they're discussing some partnership." Morgan pouted unhappily. Jenny was more chill about the situation and comforted her with a smile, "This might be a birthday dinner for the Fausts, but for others, it is an opportunity to widen their network. It shows that your parents are working hard to take advantage of all opportunities."

"I know." Of course, Morgan knew the reason behind her parents' actions, but she still found it hard to accept the reality. She had always been proud of her amazing parents, but she felt a little bitter when she witnessed how humble they behaved when discussing potential partnerships.

Jenny seemed to have read her mind and patted her on the shoulder. "Don't feel bad about it. They have to lower themselves here so they can lift their head high out there."

"Jenny, I like the way you think." Morgan felt better after being comforted by her. The two chatted away, but their jaws almost dropped when they saw more people crowding the event hall. The Fausts must have invited a lot of guests to this event.

"Jenny, look at Miss Dickman. She's going over to Alec again." Morgan looked in a certain direction while gesturing at Jenny to look over, ready to gossip. Yvonne was dressed in a red evening gown with a long. train, which showcased her perfect curves. She and Alec looked like a great match when they stood side by side.

Jenny thought they looked great, as both were quite attractive, but Morgan held a different opinion. She whispered, "Jenny, do you know that Alec is married?"

Jenny was taken aback and flashed her an astonished smile.

"Heh heh, I bet you don't know." Morgan thought that Jenny was surprised to hear the news, but Jenny. was simply shocked that Morgan knew about her marriage to Alec. She could only hope that the news of the marriage wasn't leaked.

"I heard that Mr. Faust arranged a marriage for Alec. Miss Dickman was mad when she heard about it. Had Mr. Faust not interfered, she would have been his bride. She was angry about the flash marriage and went abroad, but she came home recently."

Jenny fell into deep thoughts while listening to Morgan. Morgan added with a smile, "I think that Alec doesn't like Miss Dickman at all. Her love for him in unrequited."

"Oh? But didn't you say that she almost married him?" Jenny asked, taking a sip of the champagne. "That's what people said. But who knows what happened." Morgan smirked and said, "I believe Alec has no feelings for her. He even looked at her with less emotion than when he stared at you."

Jenny was a little dumbfounded. Morgan quickly added, "That's just an example. What I'm trying to say is that Alec definitely doesn't like Miss Dickman. As for the talks of marriage between them, I guess that was just an arranged marriage."
