To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1179

Eric shot a glance at her and smiled. "Miss Walter, you are being humble. Everyone here knows that the Walters is one of the Ten Elites in Bardoff City."

The guests were speechless. Right, the Dafoes and the Walters were influential families everyone had to defer to.

"If that's the case, I wonder if you're interested in a partnership?" she inquired.

Eric was astonished at her comments because he could not figure out what she was up to.

"I'll discuss further with you after the auction." Since the auction was ongoing, she didn't want to discuss more under the watchful gazes of the others.

The conversation ended there, and the auction took off again. Still, Jenny and Eric were not in the mood to watch anymore.

Eric whispered in Lynette's ear, "Your daughter is way more clever than you." Lynette did not say a word. He added, "What do you think the father and daughter are up to? Are they here to bring you with them?" Upon closer look, the smile on his face appeared murderous.

She bit her lip and denied it, "You're thinking too much. I'm now your wife. Why would I leave with them?"

"Is that so? Good." He chuckled and said no more. No one could tell if he was convinced by Lynette's words.

At the same time, Lynette was dumbfounded by Jenny's move. She wondered, "Jenny, what exactly are you doing? Didn't I ask you to leave with your dad? How could you engage in his shenanigans?"

After Jenny took her seat, Graham frowned. "Jenny, what are you…"

"Dad, it's fine. Everyone knows what's going on, and there's no need to beat around the bush with Eric Dafoe. Even if you claim you're not here to look for Lynette, he wouldn't believe you." Jenny was unconcerned. Eric would make a move anyway, so all they needed to do was to prepare for the imminent attack.

"Yes. Got it." He nodded.

Then, Jenny left him and marched in Eric's direction.

"Mr. Dafoe!" She looked at him with a smile. Eric was standing with Lynette beside him. "Let's continue our conversation from before. I'm very interested in a partnership with the Dafoes."

He snickered and raised an eyebrow at her. "Miss Walter, are you joking with me now?"

"Of course not! I never joke around." But she had no idea if the "partnership" would ever come to fruition. Eric scrutinized her, his eyes traveling between her and Lynette. "Miss Walter, you resemble my wife."

Jenny chuckled and winked at him. "Well, that's for sure. Mrs. Dafoe is my mother, after all."
