To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 1164 Who Do You Think You Are?

Stephanie's greatest fear had come true. She was most fearful when Paul lost control. She knew he'd do anything in that situation, even imprisoning her in his villa. She refused to go through that harrowing experience again.

When she was trapped and troubled, a figure appeared from behind her and punched Paul to the ground.

"Leonard? Why are you here?" She was surprised to see him because he should be working his shift at the police station.

He shielded her and stared at Paul in a hostile manner. "You didn't reply to my texts, so I was worried and had to visit you."

He started worrying when she didn't reply to his texts in time. Moreover, he knew Paul's wretched character and needed to check on Stephanie in person. Thankfully, he had arrived on time to protect her.

"I'm sorry that I worry you." She looked a little embarrassed. When she first agreed to date Leonard, she decided to leave the past behind and tied all the loose ends with Paul. To her dismay, he still came to her apartment.

Leonard took her hand and said unhappily, "Why are you saying sorry? It's not your fault. I should have walked you home from work."

"Wow, I'm invisible to you, huh?" Paul wiped away the blood from his lips and smirked. How dare they display their affection before him, thinking he was easily bullied?

Leonard gave him an icy glare. "Steph is my girlfriend now. Mr. Wagner, please know your boundaries."

"What if I refuse?" Paul asked with a terrifying smile.

Leonard walked up to him, staring him in the eyes. "Paul Wagner, you'd be damn wrong to think you have hidden your crimes well. This is a warning-I will not go easy on you if you pester Steph." Although he did not have concrete evidence at the moment, he'd definitely send Paul to jail if he uncovered something damning.

"Is that so? Try me. Let's see who's the last man standing." Paul had no regard for a mere deputy commissioner. He was no stranger to killing and didn't mind dirtying his hands by taking one more life. The two men were head-to-head, and tensions were high, threatening to explode at any moment. Feeling worried, Stephanie pulled at Leonard. "Let's ignore him. Send me home."

"Sure." Leonard did not want to waste time with Paul. There was no point throwing empty threats at each other. They should save the actual fight for later.

The couple entered the elevator. Paul watched from afar without barging in. "Leonard Sullivan? Who do you think you are?" He lit up another cigarette as he made a call. "Look into this man for me. I need everything on him."

Paul scoffed at Leonard's attempt to take Stephanie away from him—the man had overestimated himself. Paul believed that Stephanie was his and no one should take her away from him.

When Stephanie and Leonard exited the elevator and arrived at the door, he urged, "Go in. I'll watch until you're inside.

He needed to see her walk inside her house to feel assured. She did not budge. Biting her lips, she blurted out, "Do you want to come in?"

"Uh... Your parents are at home. It's going to be awkward." He looked shy. Even though he was her boyfriend, he needed more time to get ready to meet the future in-laws.

However, she wasn't bothered by his concerns. "Just come in. My parents are really nice."

Since she was insistent, he decided not to back out. He bit the bullet and said, "Sure."
