To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)

Faye bit her lip. Although she was upset, she dared not say anything more at the moment, afraid of provoking Alec further. She had no choice but to leave for now.

She had no experience in doing business, and she usually didn't try to interfere in the affairs of the Wardley family. The reason she had come today representing the Wardleys to sign a contract with Alec was merely an excuse to see him. However, she never expected the encounter would turn out to be so embarrassing.

After Faye left, Alec called Vincent into the room. "Investigate the Wardleys. I want to know how Anthony died and came back to life with the Wardley family."

"Very well, Mr. Faust." The sudden revelation that Faye and her brother had become part of the Wardley family was unbelievable, not just for Alec; even Vincent couldn't believe it.

Vincent had personally witnessed Anthony saving Alec's life in the past. If everything turned out to be false, then all the care Alec had shown Faye over the years would become a joke. He knew how angry Aled was, but surprisingly, he couldn't detect any trace of anger from his expression.

Vincent thought that having a girlfriend must have its benefits. Jenny happened to be someone who could keep Alec under control, and as they spent more time together, Alec's personality changed little by little.

...

Everything had been cleaned at Walter Castle; not a trace of a gunfight was left to be seen.

Jenny lay on the sofa, not even bothering to rest. She scrolled through her phone, and a post from Faye suddenly caught her attention. Thinking about it, she hadn't seen any updates from Faye since she left Parrington and went abroad.

Curious, Jenny clicked on the post, only to fall into silence when she saw its content.

"Hello, Alec. No matter my current identity, I will always be Faye to you," the post read. "P.S. I hope the cooperation between the Wardleys and the Fausts goes smoothly."

The post included a selfie taken by Faye, which had Alec's back in it.

Jenny stared at it and began to frown.

Faye had returned? From her post, it seemed that Faye's identity had changed. So, the thing Alec was preoccupied with was meeting Faye.

Jenny wanted to laugh, but she couldn't bring herself to do so. She had thought that once she resolved the issues with Eric, peace would be restored, and she and Alec could live their life together. However, Faye suddenly appeared, and from her words, Jenny could sense she was up to no good.

Did she want to compete with her for Alec? Realizing that, Jenny suddenly felt annoyed.

Just then, Alec called her. Jenny hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to answer. She wanted to see what lies Alec would tell her.

"Jenny, is everything finished at Walter Castle? I'll come to pick you up and take you home," Alec said, his tone calm as if nothing had happened. Displeased, she answered coldly. "Take me home? This is my home. Why should I go back with you?"

Upon hearing her words, Alec was momentarily stunned.

"What's wrong, Jenny? Who upset you?" Alec asked softly as if coaxing a child.

Unfortunately, Jenny was not a child, and upon hearing his tone, there was no easing of her displeasure. It only intensified.
