To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1164

Stephanie's greatest fear had come true. She was most fearful when Paul lost control. She knew he'd do anything in that situation, even imprisoning her in his villa. She refused to go through that harrowing experience again.

When she was trapped and troubled, a figure appeared from behind her and punched Paul to the ground.

"Leonard? Why are you here?" She was surprised to see him because he should be working his shift at the police station.

He shielded her and stared at Paul in a hostile manner. "You didn't reply to my texts, so I was worried and had to visit you."

He started worrying when she didn't reply to his texts in time. Moreover, he knew Paul's wretched character and needed to check on Stephanie in person. Thankfully, he had arrived on time to protect her.

"I'm sorry that I worry you." She looked a little embarrassed. When she first agreed to date Leonard, she decided to leave the past behind and tied all the loose ends with Paul. To her dismay, he still came to her apartment.

Leonard took her hand and said unhappily, "Why are you saying sorry? It's not your fault. I should have walked you home from work."

"Wow, I'm invisible to you, huh?" Paul wiped away the blood from his lips and smirked. How dare they display their affection before him, thinking he was easily bullied?

Leonard gave him an icy glare. "Steph is my girlfriend now. Mr. Wagner, please know your boundaries."

"What if I refuse?" Paul asked with a terrifying smile.

Leonard walked up to him, staring him in the eyes. "Paul Wagner, you'd be damn wrong to think you have hidden your crimes well. This is a warning—I will not go easy on you if you pester Steph."

When Stephanie and Leonard exited the elevator and arrived at the door, he urged, "Go in. I'll watch until you're inside.

He needed to see her walk inside her house to feel assured. She did not budge. Biting her lips, she blurted out, "Do you want to come in?"

"Uh…Your parents are at home. It's going to be awkward." He looked shy. Even though he was her boyfriend, he needed more time to get ready to meet the future in-laws.

However, she wasn't bothered by his concerns. "Just come in. My parents are really nice."

Since she was insistent, he decided not to back out. He bit the bullet and said, "Sure."
