To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 855

Jenny felt a bit embarrassed at his words. "Sorry, I—"

"It's okay." Alec stopped her; he didn't need Jenny's apology. "Do you have time to go for a walk together?"

"Sure." This time, Jenny didn't refuse.

These days, she didn't have her meals with Evan or Alec. In fact, she was kind of avoiding them. She knew how both of them felt toward her, but the more she was aware of it, the less she wanted to think about it.

She could give a clear answer to Evan, but the same couldn't be said for Alec. Jenny didn't have an answer in her heart.

Alec didn't drive, so he walked with Jenny along the roadside. They walked side by side, but neither spoke, yet the atmosphere wasn't awkward.

There weren't many people on the street at night, especially on the small path near the river where they were walking. Only a few sporadic night runners were around, making it particularly quiet.

"Is your work at the hospital going well?" Alec asked as they walked. He asked it in a way as if they were old friends catching up; there wasn't much emotion in those words.

Jenny nodded and smiled. "It's going well. I feel more suited to working in the hospital than taking over the company anyway."

She didn't have the ability or the interest to handle business matters.

"Well, that's good. Walter Inc has professional managers overseeing everything. Nothing untoward will happen." Alec wanted to say that even if something did crop up, he would be there. But in the end, he didn't say it out loud.

Jenny murmured in agreement, and the two fell into silence again.

As they walked, an untimely sound suddenly came from the quiet path, which was lined with trees. They instinctively looked toward the source of the sound and froze instantly. In the distance, two lovers were kissing. They were seemingly unaware of anyone approaching as they were still passionately kissing.

"Alec!" Jenny exclaimed angrily, raising her hand to hit him.

However, her hand was ultimately unable to land on Alec's body. He grabbed it and pulled her into his embrace, whispering softly in her ear, "Do you want to try it again?"

Jenny didn't know how to reply. She was completely baffled, and before she could react, Alec's warm lips were already upon hers. Jenny didn't dare to move. She froze with her eyes open wide, seemingly unable to comprehend the situation.

"Weren't we just having a stroll? How did we end up like this?" Jenny thought.

Alec just pressed his lips on Jenny's for a very brief moment, not delving too deep. But even so, he was already very delighted.

"Your heart is racing, Jenny. Admit it. You still like me."
