To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 401

Chapter 401 Alec's Seeing Someone Else

The sudden question made Christopher stare fixedly at her for several seconds. "What?"

"Just tell me if it's possible," Jenny sighed. She just wanted this over and done with.

Christopher gave it some thought before asking, "So you're willing to be my girlfriend?"

The moment he asked this, Morgan spoke up. "Jenny, don-"

"Hell no!" Jenny huffed. "I mean, will your grandfather tell me the truth if I go to Bardoff City with you, not as your girlfriend." Christopher's frown wasn't hopeful. Jenny shrugged. "Alright. Let's pretend I never asked."

"Hey, don't give up yet. There is a slight possibility." His grandfather might actually reveal the truth to Jenny if she came knocking on his door.

"You think so?" Jenny beamed. A trip to Bardoff wouldn't hurt. She'd even benefit by knowing the grand truth behind Christopher's hot-headed pursuit.

Christopher nodded. "I know my grandfather, so yeah."

"Alright. Give me a couple days to prepare for the trip to the city."

This was great news for Christopher. They'd finally have alone time together during the trip.

Morgan sighed in relief, then stood up from the table. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom."

She'd also update her family about the work with the Spades so they could do the necessary.

Her departure left the table with Christopher and Morgan sitting opposite one another.

"I'm curious why you and Alec broke up. Was he cheating on you?" Christopher hadn't listened in on their conversation that day at the apartment. All he knew was that the two didn't look very happy. "I didn't expect someone like you to be so interested in gossip."

"C'mon, you can tell me. I can keep a secret." He grinned.

Jenny ignored him, staying silent.

Christopher sighed, then immediately thought of the next topic to talk about. His gaze shifted out the cafe window. What he saw made him freeze in place.

"Looks like I was right," he murmured.

"Huh?" Jenny frowned. What was he...

She followed his gaze out the window and saw Alec's car outside. Alec stepped out of his car and went to the front passenger seat, where someone sat. The moment light reflected on the pale smooth skin of their legs, Jenny's heart dropped. She had truly hoped Alec's companion wasn't a woman.

Christopher smiled as Alec walked to the cafe with his companion. "You don't look too good," he remarked, glancing at Jenny.

"You seem to look quite the opposite." Jenny's responding stare turned cold.

"Of course. If Alec's dating someone else, you're officially free from him. That's good news for me, no?" Christopher shrugged. faron læge To Appetite
