To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) -
Chapter 94
Chapter 94 Aren't You Being Too Nosy?
Alec didn't know if he considered himself lucky or not, for he didn't meet Jenny in the lobby. Feeling
rather disappointed, he entered the elevator. Just as the doors were closing, a hand reached out to block them.
"Wait a minute!"
"Jen-"
Before he finished, he realized it wasn't Jenny, but a woman dressed primly.
"Mr. Faust, you live here?" the woman asked in surprise. It was obvious that she knew who Alec was. She wondered why the mighty Mr. Faust stayed in Perry Residence. Alec, however, didn't know who she was. "Yes. Who are you?" he asked.
"I'm a representative from DR Apparel. You brought Miss Lawrence to us to order a dress before," she replied.
Although Alec didn't quite recall the incident, he nodded in silence. People around him tended to keep quiet when he was silent too, afraid to break the silence.
Soon, the elevator reached his floor, and the two of them walked out together.
"You live here too?" Alec asked with a frown.
"No, I'm here to deliver a dress to one of our guests."
Deliver a dress? Alec had a bad feeling about it. After all, he had only run into Jenny on that floor.
"Who is the recipient?"
"Er, I..." The woman was hesitant to disclose the private details of her customer.
"You can't tell me?" Alec's tone changed. Although he didn't threaten her, his intimidating presence was too much for anyone to bear.
"It's for a lady named Miss Walter." The woman had no choice but to answer for fear of offending Alec.
Now, Alec was certain that the dress was for Jenny. Why did she order a dress?
He wondered if his grandfather had already invited her to his party. However, wouldn't that defeat the point of asking Alec to invite her?
When they arrived at Jenny's front door, Alec stepped away to prevent Jenny from seeing him.
The woman knocked on the door, and Jenny came out, looking a little confused. "Who are you?"
"Hello, Miss Walter! This dress is from Mr. Pearson," the woman said.
"Max Pearson?"
The woman nodded.
Jenny frowned in confusion before she soon understood the situation. She had promised to accompany Max to an event, so she should wear it when the time came. However, she was a little surprised by how considerate Max was that he even took care of little things.
She took the dress from the woman and thanked her. After the woman left, Jenny was about to close the door when Alec suddenly appeared before her.
"Mr. Faust?" she called, startled. "How long have you been standing there?" She didn't remember seeing anyone else in the corridor previously.
Instead of answering the question, he asked coldly, "Why did Max give you a dress?"
"Mr. Faust, aren't you being too nosy?" Jenny asked in exasperation. She started to close the door.
Alec, however, didn't give her a chance to close it. "You are my ex-wife. I'm allowed to be nosy." Jenny was dumbfounded.
"Are you guys together?" Alec's face darkened, and his voice was icy.
"I'm your ex-wife, Mr. Faust. Do you know what that means?" Jenny looked at him, trying her best not to get angry. "It means that we have nothing to do with each other from the moment we divorced. Whoever I end up with is none of your business, Mr. Faust."
Jenny never expected Alec to be so shameless. Hadn't she been clear enough? Why did Alec still appear in front of her?
"You can be with anyone but him!" he said.
