To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 1022 Maybe

They didn't dwindle on the topic of their friendship for long. There was no need to apologize for anything. What they needed to do was to work hard and then meet each other at the top. "Let's go. I'll treat you to dinner," Stephanie said, patting her on the shoulder.

Jenny hesitated. She was thinking of Evan. She'd promised to accompany him for dinner every day.

"Are you worried about Evan?" Stephanie had heard about Evan from Paul. As for why she and Paul were still in contact with each other, it was because Paul was like an annoying fly. No matter how often Stephanie swatted him away, he'd replace a way to come back to her life. It was truly an exasperating situation.

At first, Stephanie had a good impression of Evan. However, once she heard of the request that he had made to Jenny, she changed her perceptions of him.

"Does he want to control you even on this? Rescuing you doesn't mean taking away your freedom." Stephanie was upset.

Jenny saw that she misunderstood Evan and said, "He's not taking away my freedom. I was the one who said I would eat with him every day."

"I don't care. It was so hard for me to push away my company matters and meet up with you. You must eat with me today." Stephanie was adamant.

Jenny couldn't help smiling. "Don't worry. I won't let your gas money be wasted. I'll just call and let him know."

Jenny called Evan. As expected, Evan didn't refuse. "This is your choice, Jenny. You didn't have to ask me, really. But of course, I'm happy that you're calling. It means that you care about how I feel." They hung up. Jenny looked at Stephanie. "Let's go have dinner."

"Alright." Stephanie did not continue talking smack about Evan since he hadn't refused. However, she would still replace an opportunity to talk to Jenny about Evan making her stay by his side forever. It just wouldn't do.

Before Jenny could leave the hospital, Alec called to also invite her out for dinner. However, she refused him.

"Thank God it's sisters before misters for you." Stephanie nodded in satisfaction when Jenny hung up on Alec.

Jenny rolled her eyes. "Am I the type to do that?"

"Maybe. Can't tell now," Stephanie said contemplatively.

They got into a car and went to a restaurant they both liked. On the other side of town, Alec was not angry that Jenny had hung up on him. Jenny eating out with Stephanie meant she was not accompanying Evan for dinner, which was good news to him.

The two young women ordered their food in the restaurant. Stephanie didn't beat around the bush and said, "Jenny, you're not seriously planning to stay with Evan for the rest of your life, are you?" "I haven't considered it yet," Jenny answered. Forever was too long to think about. She didn't know what would happen in the future. At the very least, she had to stay by Evan's side right now.

Stephanie was upset. "He saved you, and I'm grateful for that. But I think that his request is too much."

If he truly liked Jenny, he would want her to be happy. Why would he want to prevent her from that?

"Don't say that, Stephanie. Evan didn't force me to do it. I was the one who wanted to do it." Jenny shook her head, disagreeing with Stephanie.

Stephanie pouted. She didn't believe it. Paul had told her everything, and it was obviously Evan who suggested it. He just wanted to have Jenny by his side.

However, Stephanie didn't know that as Alec's friend, Paul would naturally say things that favored Alec and put Evan in a bad light.
