To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197 What a Heartless Woman

Surprisingly, Jenny was a little worried. She walked to his bed and asked, “Your head hurts? It shouldn’t be hurting. I remember that your head was not injured when I checked it. Why would it hurt?”

“I don’t know. Maybe there’s an internal injury?” Alec said.

Instantly, Jenny turned solemn. An internal injury was rather dire. “Don’t move. Let me check your head again.”

She was worried and afraid that she hadn’t checked carefully. Alec sat on the bed as Jenny loomed over him, bending down just enough to see the crown of his head. Then, she started pawing through his hair, determined to see every inch of his scalp clearly. However, no matter how hard she checked, she found no injuries. Jenny was puzzled.

“That doesn’t make sense. Even if it’s a cerebral hemorrhage, there should be marks left by the impact. It’s impossible that there’s nothing,” she muttered, oblivious to the smile playing on Alec’s lips.

He leaned back, moving his head out of her sight.

“Don’t move-” Jenny said, but she noticed Alec’s strange smile. Finally, she realized what was going on. You tricked me!”

“No, I really did have a bit of a headache, but it wasn’t serious.” He shook his head, too afraid to admit the truth.

Jenny didn’t believe him one bit. She shot him a glare and was about to turn around and leave when Alec grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, saying, “Don’t leave. If you leave, my head will hurt even

more.”

“You’re so shameless!” Jenny said through gritted teeth, trying to break free from his strong embrace. As soon as she struggled, Alec complained that his arm hurt. Jenny was frustrated, but she didn’t dare to move. After all, Alec’s arm was still in a cast. Trapped in his arms, she felt both anxious and angry. “Let me go.”

“No.” Not only did he not let go, but he also tightened his hug. “I’m afraid that once I let go, you will disappear.”

“What a heartless woman,” he muttered. Although he was a little exasperated, he couldn’t bear to wake her up. After all, it was a rare sight to see Jenny lying quietly in his arms, and Alec wished that time would stop so that she would sleep in his arms a little longer.

Meanwhile, Vincent stood outside the door. There was no way he would enter if Jenny was there. He could already imagine the death glare from Alec if he did.

When Justin and Lilian came looking for Jenny, Vincent stopped them in time. “Hey, kids, let’s not disturb them.”

“Why? Are they exchanging secrets?” the kids asked because they knew secrets were not meant to be shared.

After a moment of thought, Vincent nodded. “Why yes, they’re exchanging secrets, so we can’t go in and disturb them.”

With that, the kids nodded naively and waited outside with Vincent. Little did they know they would end up waiting for an entire night.
