To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83 He’s Crazy

With some liquor in hand, Max recalled how Jenny had scolded Alec at the Perry Residence. All he could think of was Jenny’s last words. She was Alec’s ex-wife?

While he knew that Alec was a divorcee, he never imagined that he and Jenny were once married. It confused Max greatly as Alec was clearly interested in Jenny. So, why did he get a divorce?

He glanced at Jenny, who was sitting opposite him in the local eatery. At the sight of her upset expression, he grinned and asked, “Are you still angry?”

“Why would I be angry? I just think Alec is crazy.”

“Did Alec think she harbored feelings for him? He was one big narcissist,” she thought.

“I think he’s crazy too,” Max said, agreeing with her. “But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Are you really Alec’s ex-wife?”

Jenny grunted, not denying it.

“Why did he divorce you?” Max asked, failing to make sense of the situation.

“His ‘sister’ and his childhood sweetheart are always around him, so he has no room in his life for a wife? Isn’t it only expected that he would get a divorce?” Jenny asked, pouting mockingly.

Max, however, disagreed. From a man’s perspective, he could tell that the other women didn’t sway Alec. “Did he treat you badly?” he asked.

Meanwhile, Alec didn’t return to the Perry Residence after Jenny scolded him. He went for a drive around Parrington River.

Although his anger had subsided a little, he was still irate. Before he realized it, he found himself pulling into the Faust Mansion. It was the place Jenny and him were supposed to stay, but he never visited it once during their marriage nor after their divorce.

“Mr. Faust?” The attendants stared at him in disbelief when he suddenly appeared.

Alec gave them a nod before entering. Although no one lived there, a few housekeeping staff were inside, and they all greeted him.

“Please carry on with your work. I’m just here to take a look.” Alec waved them away. “Mrs. Langston, please stay back. I’d like to ask you a question.”
