To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1218

When Jenny was talking with Anthony, Alec didn't interrupt. To him, Jenny's thoughts were his thoughts, so he didn't need to repeat them.

After Anthony and Faye left, the dishes on the table were barely touched. Jenny smiled and looked at Alec. "Now, no one will disturb us while we eat."

"Yeah." Alec nodded; his gaze toward Jenny was extremely tender. "Jenny, I really liked the way you stood up for me just now."

Jenny smiled and put some food on Alec's plate. "You're my boyfriend now. Of course, I have to speak up for you."

"You're so overprotective of me when I'm just your boyfriend. When I become your husband, you'll wage wars for me, won't you?" Alec teased.

Jenny didn't answer the question and silently ate her food. She thought there was still a long way to go before she would become his wife.

"Do you think Anthony will really be able to control Faye?" Jenny changed the topic, suddenly feeling curious about it.

Alec's face darkened a bit at her words. "He'd better be able to control her. Otherwise, I don't mind teaching her a lesson."

"Oh? Are you willing to lay a hand on Faye?" Jenny didn't believe him.

The way she doubted him made Alec very unhappy. The next second, he hugged her and kissed her without hesitation. "Jenny, you're jealous, aren't you?"

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm not jealous." She harrumphed lightly and pushed Alec away.

While the couple were eating, trouble was brewing at Walter Castle.

The maid was scared out of her wits. She timidly pointed upstairs to a room. Eric went straight upstairs and kicked open the door of the room. However, instead of Lynette, he was greeted by a row of guns neatly lined up.

Leonard and his men had been waiting there for several days, and they finally caught Eric. No matter what, Leonard wouldn't let him escape. As Eric was about to fire his gun, Leonard beat him to it and made his move first.

Eric was hit, but instead of feeling pain, he felt dizzy. He lost control of his limbs and fell to the ground. Before his eyes closed, he saw Lynette walk out of another room, shielded by Graham.

He clearly saw the expression on Lynette's face at the moment—there was not a trace of concern for him, no extra emotions, and only a subtle sense of relief.

"She must be glad that I'm finally caught, huh? That's right. She hates me so much, so she must be elated at my capture. She'll probably celebrate with Graham later…" Eric thought.

Before Eric completely passed out, he was still unwilling to admit defeat, but he no longer had the chance to do anything about it.
