To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) -
Chapter 1150 Fate Had Made a Fool of Them
Old Mr. Faust sneered a few times. He finally let Alec go after warning him once again.
When Alec came downstairs, Jenny was lying on the couch in the living room while tapping away on the phone. She was most probably chatting with someone as she was smiling.
"What are you talking about?" Alec walked over and stood behind her.
Jenny did not hide from him. While sending the message, she replied, "I'm discussing with Steph and Jade what kind of bridesmaid dresses to choose. We want something that looks good without stealing the bride's thunder."
"Any results? Let me have a look." Alec smiled and shook his head. He was thinking that women had plenty of choices, unlike men, who did not even need to choose. A black suit for all would do the job. Jenny put her phone in front of Alec. "What do you think of this?"
Alec took a closer look at it. It was a long, green dress that might not be flattering on everybody. However, he glanced at Jenny's figure and complexion and felt that she would probably look good in it.
"It works. It's not too outstanding, but it's not ugly either." After all, Jenny was not the star of the show. Alec figured that what they had in mind was probably something basic.
Jenny nodded in agreement as well when she heard him saying that. "That's right. It's this kind of ordinary dress that would be more suitable."
Jade said she did not mind whatever they wore, but Jenny felt that Jade should be the prettiest one on her wedding day. Being Jade's bridesmaids, Jenny and Stephanie should just play their part as the perfect foil to Jade.
"What did Grandpa say to you?" Jenny asked Alec after she put her phone away.
Alec was helpless at the mention of that. He sat down next to Jenny. "What else could it be? He's just giving me a warning to keep my distance from Faye. He's probably afraid that you and I will be separated again."
"You deserved that for treating me that way back then." Jenny snorted indignantly. She didn't think anything was wrong with Old Mr. Faust's warning to Alec. If she was in his shoes, she would also feel that Ale had feelings for Faye.
Of course, that was the past. As for the current moment, she still had to observe the situation.
Alec looked at Jenny seriously. "Could it be that you also think it was because of Faye that I divorced you back then?"
"I had to admit that I indeed thought that way when we got a divorce." Jenny didn't deny it either.
Alec had a headache. He continued, "It was because I was unhappy that Grandpa had arranged our marriage that I wanted to divorce you back then. That was why I was thinking of getting a divorce. I hadn't considered that there's a possibility I would fall in love with you."
If he had known he would fall in love with Jenny, he would not have taken the unnecessary step and divorced her.
"I get it." Jenny nodded. "But I was actually having quite a good time back then."
Alec did not return, but she enjoyed her time as Mrs. Faust. On top of that, she had Old Mr. Faust's support, so she was living her life freely.
"That's right. I heard you enjoyed food and drinks every day at the mansion and lived a free and easy life." Jenny probably had never thought of falling for him back then.
Therefore, in the two years he didn't meet Jenny at the mansion, she also had never gone to the company to look for him.
In other words, their feelings were mutual. None of them loved the other.
However, Jenny could continue to make do with her situation, but Alec could not bring himself to do it back then. All he had in mind was to get a divorce. That was because he was still fantasizing about meeting his true love.
Nobody expected that the one that got away was his true love.
"Enough about that. It's all in the past now." Jenny could not help but want to laugh. She waved as she felt it was embarrassing to talk about all that.
In a nutshell, fate had made a fool of them!
