To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1006

Upon hearing that, Zeke's frown deepened immensely. "He may not be able to resolve everything now, but you should take into account the fact that I'm not dead yet!"

"How can he be so sure that Yakov won't be able to sort out our family's mess with me watching over him? What arrogance!" Zeke fumed inwardly.

"Since you don't believe me, let's wait and see." Alec stood up. He didn't intend to do anything to Zeke right then; he just wanted to vent.

As he reached the door, Alec stopped in his tracks and turned back. "You're old now. There are many things that you can't do anymore."

Zeke's face turned ashen instantly, and he stared coldly in the direction Alec left.

Alec quickly disappeared from Faust Manor. He seemed to have come over just to say those words on purpose, and Zeke was baffled about his intentions.

"Go find out what happened." Zeke had experienced many things and lived for many years. He was aware that Alec's behavior was unusual.

The butler nodded worriedly. "Sir, Mr. Yakov...is indeed facing some difficulties."

Yakov was struggling to handle the people within Faust Group. As he had his plate full dealing with internal matters, he hadn't even gotten around to taking care of external affairs yet.

"How worthless! If I'd known this would happen earlier, I would have handed over Faust Group to Xavier."

Previously, Zeke thought Xavier was too ruthless, and he was concerned that Xavier wouldn't leave a way out for the other members of the Faust family if he took over. Now, he realized that the head of the Fausts should be ruthless and relentless. Allowing others a way out would just spell disaster for the person in power later on.

It was a pity he didn't think of it earlier.
