Chapter 79

Chapter 79 A Well-Deserved Beating

Jenny remained quiet throughout his apology, watching them like they were part of a play. When the three of them turned to look at her, Jenny smiled softly, saying, "Since you're so sincere, I have no choice but to accept your apology, Mr. Dickman."

"If you're not happy with it, you don't have to accept it," Alec said.

Jenny shook her head. "I'm happy. After all, it's not easy for Mr. Dickman to apologize."

She heard Steven let out a soft snort, and she assumed that he must be agreeing with her. Suddenly, Jenny looked at the siblings before her with renewed interest.

"I'm going to the restroom," Steven announced, looking at the coffee stains all over his shirt resentfully. Yvonne nodded and told him to hurry back. Finally, she turned to Jenny, saying, "You're lucky that Alec stood up for you, Miss Walter. Not everyone gets to enjoy a privilege like that."

Despite the hint of sarcasm in her words, Jenny's expression didn't change. Alec, however, was a little agitated.

"Yvonne, shut up."

Yvonne? Jenny studied Alec and Yvonne. Given that they were on a first-name basis, they had to be familiar with each other.

Sensing her thoughts, Yvonne said, "Our families are close, so Alec and I grew up to be good friends, so it's only natural for us to speak casually. I hope you don't mind, Miss Walter."

"Ah, so she was his childhood sweetheart," Jenny thought. The moment Faye was out of the picture, a childhood sweetheart suddenly appeared beside him. She finally understood why Faye always felt so insecure.

Jenny's stare felt like a thorn boring into his skin, and Alec feared that she had misunderstood the situation. Therefore, he explained, "She's just a good friend."

"Why are you telling me that? It has nothing to do with me," Jenny replied, glancing at him nonchalantly.

At the sight of the awful expression on Alec's face, Yvonne grinned gleefully. Alec and Jenny didn't appear to have a particularly good relationship.

"Excuse me. I need to use the restroom. You two talk to each other," Jenny said before she headed toward the restroom.

In the men's room, Steven was cursing Jenny and Alec as he cleaned up the coffee stains on his shirt. "Just wait until you fall into my hands, bitch. You'll replace out how I'll torment you. And Faust, don't think your family is all great and powerful. The day you go bankrupt, I'll trample all over you."

Outside the restroom, Jenny listened to him curse them out. Snorting, she put on a mask and a hat before walking in. Steven was too caught up in his anger that he didn't notice someone had come in.

It wasn't until he was plunged into darkness when a black plastic covered his head that he cried out in horror, "Who is it? What are you doing?"

Without a word, Jenny swung her fist at him.

"Ah! Who the hell are you? I'm going to kill you!"

Alas, he had no power to fight back despite his loud threats. After punching and kicking him till he was rolling on the ground, Jenny dusted her hands in satisfaction and left the restroom. Taking a deep breath, she immediately felt much better.

Did he think an apology would suffice? Ridiculous! He had to be beaten up if he wanted to appease her

anger.

When Alec and Yvonne rushed to the restroom upon hearing his cries of pain, Jenny exited the women's restroom and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Are you okay?" Alec looked worried.

"Yeah." Jenny nodded and added, "I heard shouts from next door. Something must have happened."

She pointed to the men's room. Instantly, Yvonne's expression changed, and she barged into the room.

"Steven!" Yvonne cried in the men's room.

Jenny turned to Alec and asked, "I think something happened to Mr. Dickman. Aren't you going to take a look?"

When she raised her head, she realized that Alec was looking at her, his eyes unreadable.
