To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 971

Considering the occasion that day, Jenny didn't want to argue with her. "Alright then, I didn't mean anything else. I just wanted to greet him. If you mind my presence, I'll leave now. Just tell him I send my regards."

Alexandra wanted to say that she minded it very much, but she plastered a courteous smile on her face. "Okay, I'll tell Christopher. Goodbye, Miss Walter."

Jenny turned around and left. Although she didn't like Alexandra's behavior, she didn't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings since Alexandra was Christopher's girlfriend.

Watching Jenny leave, Alexandra breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want Jenny to meet Christopher because she feared something might happen between them. Although Jenny was now the daughter of the renowned Walter family and wasn't likely to consider Christopher a potential life partner, it was difficult to say that she wouldn't.

Alexandra liked Christopher very much and didn't want to take any risks. Thinking of that, she turned around and walked toward Christopher, who was still mourning his grandfather not far away.

"You should have some food first, Christopher. Your health is important too," Alexandra advised with concern as she stood beside him.

Christopher hadn't been eating much these days, and he had visibly lost weight. She was worried for him.

He didn't move from his spot but just said to her, "You can go back. I know what to do."

Alexandra didn't leave; she stayed by his side. If she turned and left at a time like this, what would Christopher and the rest of the Spade family think of her?

"I'll stay here with you," Alexandra said resolutely. She then stood beside Christopher silently.

Seeing her like that, Christopher couldn't quite bear it. He held Alexandra's hand and motioned for her to follow him.

"Let's go eat. I have something to tell you."

For some reason, Alexandra's heart skipped a beat. "He has something to tell me?" she thought, feeling alarmed.

Both their families were already discussing marriage, but for some reason, when Christopher said he had something to tell her, she instinctively knew it wasn't about their marriage. Instead, she had an uneasy feeling.

"Come on. Let's go and eat." Christopher turned around and didn't say anything further.

At the entrance of the cemetery, Jenny had just left in a car.

"Why did you come here?"

She looked at Alec and surmised he hadn't come to pay respects to Harvey.

"I came to pick you up." This place was in the middle of nowhere. If Alec hadn't come to pick up Jenny personally, he would have been worried.

Jenny was somewhat speechless and rolled her eyes at him. "Alec, can you not treat me like I'm a toddler? Did you think I'd get lost?"

"You'll always be a child in my eyes." He was willing to treat her like a child and spoil her, even if it was for a lifetime.
