To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 781

"Dr. Walter said the surgery was a success, but the patient needs to be warded in the ICU. If he gets through tonight without complications, there won't be any major risks down the road."

Paul felt assured by the nurse's explanation. He was initially worried about Jenny operating on Alec because he could not gauge her feelings for him. She could have taken Alec's life in silence by claiming a "slip-up" in the surgery. Thankfully, Jenny didn't pull any tricks on Alec.

Soon, Alec was wheeled out from the operating theater to the ICU. Jenny came out and noticed Paul by the entrance. She told him, "The surgery was successful. Please inform Mr. Zachary Faust."

"Sure, I'll let him know." Paul nodded, his worries gone after learning about the successful surgery.

On her way out, she stopped again and said to Paul and Blake, "I need someone to stay guard at the hospital tonight. Which one of you is staying?" She had announced that on purpose to observe Blake's response.

"I'll stay back. Alec's my boyfriend, after all," Blake volunteered. Now that the surgery was a success, it was time for her to make a move.

Jenny was fine with it, but Paul objected, "It's alright. Miss Watkins, you should go home and have a rest. I'll look after Alec."

He had no trust in Blake, who clearly did not wish to see Alec regain his memories.

"Paul Wagner, are you dead set on turning the Watkins into your enemy?" She choked in anger at Paul's stubbornness. As Alec's girlfriend, she believed that she had all the right to stay back for Alec.

Paul merely smirked. "You're overthinking it. That wasn't what I meant."

"You—" She glared at him, her features contorted in rage. Still, she could not lay a finger on him since they were at the hospital. Finally, she scoffed and left the hospital.

Jenny wasn't too interested in the topic. "It's fine. It was a casual question. I couldn't care less about their relationship."

When Jenny was leaving, Paul suddenly asked, "Is Stephanie…doing well?"

"Oh, Stephanie…" Jenny paused on purpose to savor the anxious look on Paul's face. She laughed at his expression and added, "She's doing fine! Life's been good ever since she parted ways with you. She has a lot of excellent suitors queuing up for her."

His face darkened. "Does she have a lot of suitors?"

"Of course! Steph is a decent young lady. It's only normal that men are lining up for her." Smiling, she added, "Mr. Wagner, did you seriously think that Stephanie could only be with you for the rest of her life?"
