To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 What Good Are You?

Scared but composed, Vincent entered the CEO’s office with Alec.

“Any results on the whereabouts of my ex-wife?” Alec stared at Vincent and asked in a flat tone. For Vincent, Alec’s calmness was much more terrifying. He wondered what had happened to his CEO. Alec had rarely asked about his ex-wife in the past, but he started taking an interest in her after the divorce.

Vincent shook his head and stammered, “N-No.”

As expected, Alec’s brooding eyes darkened after hearing that. He asked, “What’s her name?”

“Jenny Walter,” Vincent answered and heard Alec take a deep breath, as if he was holding back.

“And you’ve never met her?” Alec pressed on.

Vincent shook his head again and explained, “She had never dropped by at work. And you had never been to the Faust Mansion. It’s not surprising that I’ve never met her.”

When Jenny needed something, she would communicate with the butler, Warren, from the Old Mansion. She had no reason to talk to Vincent at all.

Out of the blue, Alec grabbed a file and threw it at Vincent. “What good are you? You’re taking forever to find her. You were unaware even when she was right in front of me!”

That was the first time in many years that Alec felt emotional turmoil. He had no idea how to face her

now.

Faye hid her shock and knocked on the door. She entered the office and asked, “Alec, what’s wrong?” “All good. Why are you here?” He shook his head, deciding to keep Jenny’s matter a secret. Faye walked up to him with teary eyes. “About my dad’s company-”

“Faye, your dad committed a crime and should be punished by the law. You ought to know better,” he cut her off. He had no patience for her parents. Had it been a minor issue, he wouldn’t mind doing her a favor so she could focus on her recovery. When he realized the issue was trickier than he had imagined, he refused to get involved because it was not worth it.
