To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1030

"What about you? Any New Year's plans?" Alec asked. He wanted to ask her if she'd like to spend it with him but wasn't sure if she'd accept the offer.

After some thinking, Jenny said, "I'm not sure. Probably like usual—spending it with Zack and Gilbert."

Evan would likely join them as well, though Jenny didn't mention it to Alec for fear of his displeasure.

Frankly, Alec had guessed as much too.

"Sounds good. Why don't we light some fireworks together during the night? We can have lunch together." The people of Bardoff City customarily had their New Year's meal as lunch instead, so they'd still be able to hang out for the remainder of the day.

"Alright."

Alec grinned. "Get some rest then."

"You too." Jenny didn't ask further about Alec's personal business. She trusted him enough to make the right decisions.

Just as she was about to end the call, Alec suddenly asked, "Aren't you going to ask about Blake and me?"

Jenny frowned, then suddenly recalled the news she'd seen earlier. "I trust you're not the kind of person to go back on your words," she said uncertainly after a moment's pause.

"Oh? Who says so?" If he didn't, he wouldn't have gone back to pursue Jenny after their divorce.

"So…you really plan to get back together with Blake?" Jenny scoffed.

Graham giving Jenny the spot as the family head was a rare sight among the Ten Elites.

"So you're gonna help her?" Jenny pouted.

"Not exactly. I'll be getting something out of this too. I've made her promise to try and get her family to help us deal with the remaining Fausts once she succeeds."

Alec would have dealt with them even without Blake's help, but he wasn't about to let her get her way without putting in equal effort.

Jenny nodded. "No wonder. It seems the Fausts have their hands full with the Blakes' antics lately."

The Watkins were, in truth, on par with the Faust family, so if they put in the work to attack the Fausts, not even Yakov and Zeke would be able to handle it.
