To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) -
Chapter 894 As You Wish
Before Jenny's call got through, Evan's car arrived at the entrance. Seeing this, Jenny understood.
She simply gave up on calling and put her phone away. "Looks like it's not just a family gathering. Let's go."
"Alright." Alec smiled and glanced mockingly at Evan, who was just getting out of his car. He knew it was strange that Gilbert suddenly interrupted Jenny like that. Now that Evan had appeared, Alec instantly guessed that it had to do with Evan.
When Evan saw that Alec was around, he was bewildered. "Why are you here, Alec?"
"Jenny invited me over. Do you have a problem with that?" Alec raised an eyebrow as if daring him.
Evan raised an eyebrow, looking at Jenny, who was not far off. "Do you want him to tag along, Jenny? This is a family gathering. Who is he to come?"
"He happened to help me solve a difficult problem today. I brought him here to show him my gratitude," Jenny said, her tone unpleasant.
She didn't know if this was purely Gilbert's idea or if Evan had something to do with it, but she disliked it.
She just wanted to eat with her two brothers, but they called Evan over. Did they want to upset her? She had confessed to him when she was younger, but that didn't mean she had to continue liking him. Why did they stubbornly bring up the fact that she had confessed to him before?
Evan could sense that she was unhappy and pouted, saying nothing.
They walked into the villa, and Gilbert was surprised to see Alec. He hadn't invited him over.
"I brought him here," Jenny said. "I wanted to treat him to a meal, and you happened to call. So I brought him along."
Gilbert forced out a smile. He'd grown up with her. He knew that she was throwing a tantrum.
A fool could guess why. It was his fault.
"It's alright. We have other guests coming over." When he said guests, he really meant outsiders. Jenny frowned as if sensing the meaning in Gilbert's words. "Are there more people?"
"You'll know." It wasn't just other people. It was someone who would shock Jenny very much.
Jenny didn't ask anymore. She had already decided that it was going to be a disappointing meal.
She volunteered to help in the kitchen. Alec and Evan wanted to help, too, but Gilbert did not let them go. He put them in the living room because they were guests.
They sat far apart in the living room, wanting nothing to do with each other.
"Your men are dead," Alec said, sipping tea. He didn't look at Evan, but Evan knew that those words were directed at him.
Evan did not give off much of a reaction, as if it was expected. "Okay."
Death was an escape. The Fausts would not let them go so easily if they continued living.
Alec had used the opportunity to pin their deaths on the Watkins. Zeke wouldn't suspect much.
"You've suffered great losses, haven't you?" Alec said. It sounded like he was mocking him, but it wasn't his intention. It was a casual question.
Evan didn't think so. He scoffed. "It is as you wish, isn't it?"
