To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1118

She'd just finished tucking the note away when she heard the sound of Evan coming down the stairs outside the door. Jenny composed herself, opened the door, and walked toward him.

"Up so early?" Evan was a little surprised to see her come out of her room.

"Didn't you tell me to wake up early?" Jenny asked in reply, suppressing her feelings of anticipation.

Evan smiled and led her to the dining table. "There's no need to wake up so early. You can sleep a little longer if you want."

"No, I'm not very sleepy." Jenny refused. She was afraid that Evan would suddenly change his mind and decide not to take her out.

"You seem excited to go." Evan handed her a sandwich and remarked casually.

Jenny nodded and didn't deny it. "I've been staying on this island day after day. I feel like I'm becoming isolated from the world. Of course, I'm excited to go out."

Evan opened his mouth, wanting to apologize, but immediately realized that his apology was meaningless and could only serve to comfort himself.

They quickly finished breakfast, and Evan took Jenny onto the private jet. It was her second time going out, so Jenny was much more at ease than the first.

After arriving at Duxdence, Evan had to attend to some business, but he didn't trust Jenny enough to let her wander alone, so he asked Howard to follow her. Jenny was well aware that he wasn't concerned about her safety, but rather, he was afraid she would run away.

She didn't object because she knew it would be useless and would only make Evan unhappy. If he sent her back before they even got to leave the airport, she would lose all chances of contacting Alec.

Evan's workplace. As Evan had said, he had now established a company, and it looked quite impressive. If it weren't for Jenny knowing what kind of business he was doing in private, she would probably believe he'd truly turned over a new leaf.

"You're done shopping?" Evan looked at Jenny, who was sitting on the sofa, and felt a little helpless. He could tell that her enthusiasm was nowhere near as high as when she had come out in the morning.

Jenny nodded and leaned back on the sofa. "Yeah, there wasn't much to see. The clothes were the same, and there weren't many nice ones."

"Well, when we have time, I'll take you to Luedross. It's livelier over there." Evan smiled as he looked at her. After all, Jenny had only recently come there, so it was normal for her if she felt like a fish out of water.

Jenny responded with a cursory "okay" but didn't really take it to heart.
