To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 49

Chapter 49 He's a Jerk

Jenny nearly burst out laughing, but she held herself together. "Yeah. He's a jerk!”

"Did he hurt you?" Alec's eyes shifted. He wished he could punch the bastard in the face.

"Yeah." She nodded and said, "We were married for two years, but he never paid me a visit. Don't you think he's a jerk?"

"He is!" Alec gritted his teeth. A ball of fire surged in his chest. "Who is he?"

You, Alec!

Jenny bit back her laughter and shook her head. "Oh well. It's all in the past. I want nothing to do with him in the future."

Alec couldn't press on when she said that, but he still felt upset. "You don't have to be so merciful towards jerks. If you replace yourself in a pinch, I can help you."

Jenny noticed that Alec was staring at her. He felt embarrassed. "Don't take this the wrong way. I was just

"Are you pursuing me, Mr. Faust?" she asked.

The air around them grew quiet at once. Alec retorted, "Never!"

Jenny looked at him with interest. Seeing this, Alec explained, "I'm just helping you on the accord of you helping out Faye. As you said, Faye's condition could act up at any time." Jenny thought that this was very plausible. Alec would do anything for Faye, and Jenny was someone who might be able to help her in the future.

"That's great. I happen to feel nothing for you," she said.

A fire burned in his chest, but when he thought of what he had said, he had to suppress it.

"Although there's nothing between us, I still helped you last night. Do you think your attitude is warranted? "His low voice sounded. He looked at Jenny coldly, scolding her in his heart. "Didn't I tell you before that I don't like people called Faust?" She looked dead serious.

Alec's face instantly soured. "You know what will happen if you don't give me a good reason today."

Alec was exuding a terrifying aura. He hadn't managed to ask her the reason before, so he had to get to the bottom of everything this time. Jenny was not concealing anything at all. She said, "My ex-husband was named Faust. That's why I'm not fond of people with that surname." "I..." Alec was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe, Was that it? She hated everyone with his surname simply because of her ex-husband? She was generalizing far too much. Not everyone named Faust was a jerk.

He was frustrated. Thus, his tone changed. "Is that so? Little Miss Jenny is really going to hold a grudge against everyone named Faust."

Since he knew her name, there was no need for him to call her Dr. Walter. He would call her Little Miss Jenny instead.

"Perhaps." Jenny shrugged. "I just don't like them. What can you do about it?" Before he could speak, she said, "Is there something else, Mr. Faust? If not, you may leave. I need to get to work. I don't have the time

to accompany you."

Her attitude shifted as quickly as the weather. Alec had witnessed it all completely. He glared at her coldly and left in strides.

He would give up his name if he cared more about this woman!

Except...

Right as he stepped out of the house, something tugged at his memory.

Two years of marriage without so much as a visit?

He seemed to have treated his ex-wife in that way as well.
