To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)

Chapter 1291 It's Useless

Everyone knew what Zack was up to. No one called him out or said a thing, saving for a slight snort from Gilbert. Still, Janet felt bad about the incident, especially when she saw how Zack was protecting her in front of everyone. But what else could she do for him? Not only was she helpless, but she might also cause more trouble for him. She hated herself for being incompetent.

"I've arrested the man who stabbed you. He's not the main problem, but he's backed by the Britts." As Gilbert spoke, he turned to Jenny. He

believed the man's connection to the Britts complicated the situation more than they had expected. The man was the club owner on papers, but he was financially backed by the Britts, hence the impudence. Although

Gilbert was doing well in Bardoff City, he was far from being as influential as the Ten Elites. Therefore, he'd need Jenny's help with this.

Zack felt frustrated because he knew he couldn't take down the Britts. At the same time, he didn't want to trouble Jenny. "If he's the one who stabbed me, we should send him to prison." As long as whoever was backing the man didn't bail him out, Zack had no plan to drag on the matter. He didn't have the capability to do so anyway.

Knowing what was in her brothers' minds, Jenny held a different opinion." Zack, just focus on your recovery. You don't have to worry about other stuff. I'll take care of it." "Jenny..."

"Listen to me. I will take care of it," she cut him off with a laugh. She knew Zack was worried about her safety, but she didn't fear the Britts, not in their current state.

She had given Brandon Britt a stern warning after the drama involving Yvonne. Although Yvonne had disappeared from Bardoff City, it didn't stop Jenny from holding a grudge against the Britt family. Now that Brandon Britt had once again gotten on her wrong side, it would be a pity not to do something about it. Moreover, the Walters and the Fausts needed to expand their businesses within the confines of Bardoff City's limited economic pie, and to do so, they would need to acquire the businesses of their rivals.

Through exchanging glances, Jenny and Alec reached a pact. They wanted to take everything owned by the Britt family.

Zack didn't say more in the face of Jenny's determination. He had full trust in her capabilities. "Sure. I'll leave it to you, but don't let them take advantage of you."

"Okay. Have a good rest. We'll leave now." Then, she dragged Gilbert out of the room without asking for his opinion, offering the young couple some privacy.

Gilbert was annoyed. "Why did you drag me out here? I have more to talk to Zack about."

"Gilbert, were you planning to make him break up with Janet?" She laid out the truth-she knew his thoughts well. His silence was an admission.

Feeling troubled, she reminded him, "Look how Zack is protecting Janet. You should know he doesn't mind taking on the trouble for her. I think he'd only feel bad for not protecting her better. He won't listen to what you say to him. It's useless."

She deliberately persuaded Gilbert to give up on talking Zack out of the relationship and allowing him to pick his path. Plus, she didn't want the brothers to be upset at each other.

Gilbert knew her intention and let out a long sigh. He stared at her and then at Alec. With a shake of his head, he said, "Whatever. I'll let it be. You never listened to me in the past, and he won't listen to me now."

All of a sudden, he felt like a wicked stepparent in novels, one who was vocally against the protagonists. It was unnecessary to upset everyone.
