To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Absurd!

Morgan stayed still, seriously regretting coming over in the first place. Jenny's mood would only worsen if she handed the tablet over now.

Jenny stood up, ready to retrieve the tablet herself. Morgan quickly went over, handing it to her." Hold up. There's no need to rush."

Thinking it was something to do with the hospital, Jenny nonchalantly read the news on the tablet. Her face fell the moment she noticed the headline. Opposite her, Christopher's interest was successfully piqued.

He leaned over to look, immediately noticing some news about Alec. He was about to joke about it when he read some more of the article and realized that Alec and Natalia were dating.

They even announced it publicly!

What was going on? Hadn't they just met for lunch yesterday?

A nagging thought in Christopher's mind said, "If only Jenny and I could get together this quickly."

Meanwhile, Jenny found the news ridiculous. Didn't Alec tell her last night that he wasn't dating Natalia? What kind of absurdity was this?

Jenny slammed the tablet on the desk, holding her rage back even as Morgan and Christopher could see how close she was to exploding.

"Breathe, Jenny. He's not worth it," Morgan gently added. "What a jerk," she thought.

Christopher said, "Why don't you and I announce that we're dating, too?"

He shut up the moment Jenny sent him a death glare. "Okay, so Jenny is tougher to get than Natalia," he thought.

"...I'm fine," Jenny said after a long minute.

Even a deaf person wouldn't believe her.

She got up from her seat. "Time to get off work."

"Jenny..." Morgan called out, still worried as Jenny left the office.

"Don't worry. I'll keep her safe," Christopher assured her, then ran after Jenny. He wasn't an ass like Alec; he had to stay with Jenny in her time of need. When Christopher finally caught up to Jenny, she was just entering her car. He slid into the front passenger seat. "Can you give me a ride? It's not far from your place."

"Where?"

"Perry Residence. Before Jenny could ask, Christopher explained, "I moved into one of the condos there recently.

He had learned from Alec himself, after all.

Taking a deep breath, Jenny decided not to waste her energy arguing with him. Exhaustion had

overridden every inch of her body. All she wanted to do was sleep.

The drive was quiet. Jenny's mind was clouded with the news of Alec dating Natalia. No one mentioned her name anymore on the media threads. It made sense. After all, she was only Alec's ex-wife to the public. They never officially announced they were dating afterward, either.

"Why don't I drive, Jenny?" Christopher offered, seeing how out of sorts she was.

"Shut the hell up!" she roared. Peace and quiet. That's what she needed right now.

Obviously, Christopher wouldn't shut up. He knew exactly what was going through her mind even though she wouldn't say it out loud.

"Hungry yet? I know a good place for dinner. My treat," he continued, ignoring Jenny's death glare
