To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1056

Jenny was taken aback once more. She was no fool—there must be a reason why Alec emphasized the background of the kidnapper.

Staring at him in disbelief, she finally blurted out, "Do you suspect Evan of planning my kidnapping?"

"More accurately, I suspect he orchestrated the whole thing to make you stay by his side after saving your life." There was no good reason for Evan to kidnap Jenny, but what if that was never the goal? Right now, it seemed that Evan had gotten what he wanted.

"Impossible!" she said without thinking. "That doesn't sound like Evan at all."

Alec had wanted to tell her that Evan was no saint, but he felt upset upon seeing how firmly she trusted Evan. "Maybe. But for him to be innocent, he has to be recovering from real injuries."

"Alright. I got it. I'll talk to him and get him to do a checkup at a Bardoff City hospital," she suggested, thinking that having Dr. Gaarder around was unnecessary. Alec knew there was no point arguing because Jenny wouldn't allow him to do as he wished. He turned around and gave the doctor an apologetic look. "Sorry for the trouble all this while. I'll get someone to drive you to the airport."

"No worries." Dr. Gaarder didn't mind it at all. After bidding them farewell, he left.

Jenny didn't feel better after Dr. Gaarder's departure. She knew what Alec was thinking, but she refused to believe that Evan was the type of guy to pull dirty tricks.

"Don't worry about Evan. I'll make him go for a checkup." With that, she went into the villa. He watched as she walked away from him. He had the urge to say something, but he was silent until the end.

She stood up and walked to her bedside. There, she noticed the lights from Alec's study. He was clearly home. Why wouldn't he call her, then? Perhaps, he was occupied.

She stopped worrying and went for a shower. At first, she thought he'd be done with work after she got out of the shower, but she was surprised to find no missed calls from him.

She was somehow worried about him, so she called him instead. She waited, but no one picked up, which fueled her anxiety. She had wanted to call Old Mr. Faust and request that he check on Alec in the study, but she remembered that the old man had gone home to Parrington a few days ago. Alec was alone in his villa.

Frowning, she made another call to him. He still did not pick up. This time, instead of waiting, she put on her coat and headed toward his villa.
