To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny)
Chapter 99

Chapter 99 It's Too Late to Apologize

The two found a table at the joint and sat down. Alec showed his dislike of the surroundings clearly on his face, causing Jenny to laugh.

"You don't seem to like this environment, so why did you choose to live at Perry Residence?" she asked. If you lived at the Faust Mansion, you wouldn't have to put up with this kind of place within ten miles." Alec didn't answer. The Faust Mansion was a private property with few people in its compounds, which was perfect for a picky person like Alec. He used to live at the Faust Mansion before he got married, but after the marriage, he didn't want to live there because Jenny was there, so he found a place near his company. However, after getting divorced, he was going to move back, but he hadn't expected to see Jenny again. Now, he wasn't sure if he still wanted to move.

Jenny looked at Alec for a few seconds, then said sarcastically, "It's not easy for you. You couldn't go back home after getting married."

She didn't bother hiding her sarcasm, but Alec didn't mind. Smiling lightly, he replied, "If you suddenly had a wife, you would have done the same."

"Don't compare me to you," Jenny said, disgusted. "I know how to face things directly instead of avoiding them."

If she had been in his shoes, she would have met herself at least once to explain the situation. She wouldn't be like Alec, who disappeared without a word. Recalling her marriage, she cursed him in her heart. Alec couldn't refute her. He knew his actions before were wrong. At the time, he felt angry and resentful toward Jenny, who came into his life unexpectedly as his new wife. Who knew that life would lead to their eventual reunion?

"I was wrong," he said, not even trying to defend himself. "I'm sorry."

Jenny was caught off guard by his apology, but she quickly came to her senses. "It's too late to say sorry

now."

They had already divorced.

"I know." Alec nodded, feeling helpless.

Jenny didn't want to talk about the past anymore, so she asked, "What do you want to talk to me about? If you just want to apologize, there's no need. It's all over."

"That day...downstairs..." Alec paused. "I shouldn't have said that."

He had said that Jenny was interested in him, but it was just out of anger toward Max.

Soon, the joint owner arrived with their food and asked what they wanted to drink. Jenny ordered a bottle of beer while Alec asked for a non-alcoholic drink. When the drinks arrived, Jenny poured herself some beer and asked Alec if he drank.

"Alcohol is not good for the stomach," he replied.

With that, he took the beer from Jenny's hand and switched it with his non-alcoholic drink. Finding Alec's behavior interesting, Jenny didn't refuse his drink. She took slow sips of the drink and lost herself in her thoughts. Meanwhile, Alec was worried because he had apologized, but Jenny hadn't forgiven him.

"I don't understand why you need to apologize to me. You are Alec Faust, after all," she said after a long

wait

Alec looked at her and said, "I just don't want there to be too many misunderstandings between us." "Why?" Jenny asked, failing to understand.
