To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) -
Chapter 1239 Okay, We Agree
Upon hearing this, Faye was uncertain and looked nervously at Alec.
"If you want to say something, go ahead," Alec said, his words filled with affection for Jenny, which made Faye's heart ache inexplicably, but she quickly suppressed it.
She took a deep breath and spoke up, "I want you to spare the Wardleys."
"Ha!" Alec couldn't hold back his laughter. "You want? Do you think I would care about what you want?"
"Alec, I know you hate me and my brother. After all, if it weren't for him, you wouldn't be in hospital now," Faye said, biting her lip. She looked at Alec and continued, "But you should show mercy to him, considering all those years he spent with you. And...and you should also have mercy on me. I haven't had a good life since I was little. You should know how the Lawrence family treated me. I've always though that if I could become a wealthy young lady one day, I wouldn't live such a miserable life. Alec, I know you probably don't want to spare the Wardleys just like that, but can you...I mean, can you leave some assets for the Wardleys so that my brother and I won't have to live like we used to?" Faye pleaded.
She didn't expect to keep all of the Wardleys' assets, but she still hoped to keep a little. Even if the Wardleys were removed from the Top Ten Elites of Bardoff City from now on, she wouldn't mind.
Faye's words were quite sincere, and they got through to Alec. Although he hated being deceived, he was grateful to Anthony for being his bodyguard in the past. At that time, he was still young and faced many dangers. Except for when Anthony faked his death, he had saved Alec from many dangers before that. As for Faye, Alec had really thought of her as a younger sister before and even felt sorry for her. Alec didn't say anything, but Jenny could guess what his decision would be.
She looked at Faye and made the decision for him. "We can agree to your request, but from now on, you and Anthony cannot appear in Bardoff City. Alec and I will buy Anthony's Wardley Inc shares at the original price. The money will be enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your lives."
Faye was stunned. She'd wanted to keep Wardley Inc to ensure they would have a steady stream of income. But obviously, Jenny didn't give them this opportunity.
"If I were you, I would agree as soon as possible. Otherwise, Anthony's shares will eventually become worthless, and you won't get a penny. You'll even be burdened with debts that could run up to more than a million," Jenny said, rolling her eyes at Faye. If it weren't for Alec being somewhat sympathetic toward them, she wouldn't have let these siblings off so easily.
After hearing that, Faye didn't dare to hesitate any longer. "Okay, we agree."
It was good to have enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
"Well...I'll be leaving now." Faye knew that since they weren't exactly fond of her, she wouldn't stay and get in their way in case they changed their minds. After Faye left, Alec spoke up, "We're letting them off the hook just like that?"
"It's not exactly that. They won't get much in the end, anyway. Losing the entire Wardley Inc should be a punishment that's severe enough for them."
The Wardley family was one of the Ten Elites of Bardoff City. They wouldn't have ended up like this if Anthony hadn't done anything foolish.
