To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 877

Jenny gave him a thumbs-up after he was done. "As expected of Mr. Faust."

"Don't tease me, Jenny." Alec felt embarrassed. He was afraid that she would have a bad impression of him. He wasn't just a mindless killer.

If he did not make a move on the Fausts, Xavier would never let go of his hold on his position. Alec was forced to do it.

Jenny smiled lightly. "I'm not teasing you. I'm honestly admiring you. You're a natural businessman. The Fausts will be yours, and you will bring them to the new light."

Although the Fausts looked to be in their prime, Jenny could feel that the family wasn't as amazing as they looked. They were only tough on the outside. Otherwise, Zeke would not have done this to select his heir. He would not be so worried if they were truly capable.

Alec didn't care about it right now. What he cared about was something else.

He looked at Jenny and asked, "Can you forgive me now? I didn't tell you because I didn't know if it was in my right to do so. What if I told you about it, and you told me it was none of your business? What would I do, then?"

That was something she could picture herself saying.

A trace of embarrassment flashed through her eyes, but it disappeared quickly. "It's the same now. You needn't ask for my forgiveness because it has nothing to do with me."

Alec was silent. Then, emotionally, he said, "When are you going to stop torturing me, Jenny?"

"Do you really want to be with me, Alec?" Jenny suddenly asked.

He nodded at once, his gaze sincere. "Yes!"

"What's up? Are the Fausts pressing close?" Alec asked.

Evan had personally participated in Xavier's murder. Alec knew that. Evan was also the one who planned the escape route. As long as they escaped before the Fausts could react, there wouldn't be an issue.

But judging by his response right now, it probably hadn't worked.

Evan sat on the chair, his spirits low. "I underestimated them. They were fast. Before my men could clear the area, the Fausts had already cordoned off every exit. They can't leave through the proper channels now."

Although they were masked and gloved when they broke in and did not leave any traces, Evan did not want to risk his men getting caught. They followed him into the country. He wanted to see them leave in peace.
