To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)

Alec's tone was calm. Although there was not a single trace of anger in it, Faye found his words cold.

"The situation back then was very complicated, and I don't know the specifics. Let my brother explain it to you," Faye said. Although Anthony had already told her, she didn't dare to tell Alec the truth. Alec leaned back on the sofa and chuckled. "There's no need for that. He is the president of Wardley Inc. There's no need for him to explain anything to me." "Alec, listen-"

"Stop. We aren't that close, Miss Wardley." Alec raised his hand, no longer interested in continuing the conversation with her. Rather than wasting time with Faye, he'd rather go back and spend more time with Jenny.

Faye's face turned pale. She bit her lip, her eyes welling up with tears. "Alec, please don't do this. I'm still Faye."

"Hm, Faye Lawrence and Faye Wardley are not the same."

Faye Lawrence was a pitiful orphan entrusted to him by Anthony, and Alec always treated her as a younger sister. Faye Wardley, on the other hand, was different. She was a daughter of the Wardley family, someone Alec had never known.

"Alec, to me, it's all the same. You will always be the person I'm closest to," Faye said.

Alec replied with a sneer.

"Alec, I don't want you to misunderstand me. If you're going to be like this, I would rather not have returned to the Wardley family," Faye said in a sad tone that would have made Alec feel sorry for her in the past. However, in the present, his eyes held no emotion as he watched her throw a pity party.

Without Alec's comfort, Faye felt even more upset. "Alec, I came here today on behalf of the Wardleys to discuss a deal with you."

Despite Alec's poor reaction, she wasn't in a rush to fix it immediately. After all, she would have plenty of opportunities to interact with him. After all, she was no longer the poor Faye Lawrence she used to be. When Alec heard that, he realized it was true. He had been discussing a deal with the Wardleys, so when he was informed that the representative of the Wardleys had arrived, he didn't think much of it and brought them in. Never had he expected it to be Faye.

"A deal? I don't think there is a need for a deal with the Wardleys anymore." Since he learned about the current situation of the Wardley family, Alec no longer planned to cooperate with them.

Upon hearing these words, Faye's face turned even paler, and she couldn't believe her ears. "Alec, I know you have misunderstandings about me and my brother, but you're not the kind of person who lets personal feelings interfere with business. This cooperation is important for both our families, so you should let your personal feelings interfere with it."

"Are you trying to school me?" he asked with a sneer.

"No, Alec. I'm just hoping that the deal between our families won't be affected as it is important to both families," she answered, shaking her head sadly.

"I used to think the same way, but now, I have serious doubts about the Wardleys' internal situation, so I want to call it off. Is that not allowed?" Although this cooperation is important to the Fausts, they could live without it.

Faye lowered her head. "Alec, why are you like this? Regardless of what happened, we used to be close."

"Used to be close?" Alec couldn't help but laugh. "Miss Wardley, please be cautious with your words. I have never had any contact with the Wardley family. So what is this closeness you speak of?"

"Alec "

"You may leave now. There is no need for further discussion. It would be best if you remind Anthony after you return that I need an explanation for what happened back then."

Alec seriously suspected that he had been manipulated. Otherwise, how could someone who was supposed to be dead appear in Bardoff City?
