To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1029

Mhm. Have you had dinner?" Jenny went to sit across from Evan.

Evan nodded. "Don't worry about me. I have a personal chef, remember?"

Though having asked Jenny to move in with him, Evan still didn't want to control her too much. He didn't want to upset her, after all.

"Here. Got you a present for New Year's." Jenny handed him a present.

Evan took it, surprised. "Isn't New Year's in two days? Why're you giving me this now?"

Jenny shrugged. "It's all the same to me."

Evan smiled. "Thank you."

"Open it. See if you like what I got you." Jenny beamed at him, hoping Evan's moods might lift with the present she got for him.

"I'll love anything you give me." Evan opened the present up. Upon seeing it was a tie, he smiled. "Stylish. Thank you."

"I'm glad you like it. I wasn't sure what you liked; I just felt like this suited you."

Evan wanted to ask if anyone else had gotten such a gift, but he swallowed his words at the last second.

Afterward, Jenny got up. "I'll wheel you back into your room."

"Alright." Evan nodded.

After he'd returned to his room, Jenny went back to hers. Her phone rang the instant she switched on the lights. It was Alec.

"Are you back?" Alec asked.

"Nah. I've sent someone to bring Grandpa here. He should reach tomorrow." If his grandfather didn't mind, Alec would love to have him stay in Bardoff City with him so he could look after him.

Jenny blinked in surprise, then thought it was only natural Alec would do that. He'd most likely settle in Bradoff City long term, so his grandfather would need to move one way or another. "That sounds good. Having Grandpa here will be better than leaving him alone in Parrington."

"Yeah. Mortimer Faust just woke up, too."

"What?" Now Jenny was really taken aback. It was extremely rare for those in a coma to ever regain consciousness.

"Yeah." Alec nodded. "That's why there's hope for Evan's injuries yet."

Jenny agreed with him. She hadn't believed in a miracle before, but hearing about Mortimer's recovery gave her hope.

If a vegetable could come back to their awareness, Evan would definitely recover!"
