To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1058

Alec woke up feeling thirsty in the middle of the night. He struggled to sit and get water, but he woke Jenny up instead.

"Stop moving around," she said. "Just tell me what you want."

"Water," he muttered in a hoarse voice.

She poured him a glass of lukewarm water but held the glass in her hand. "You can't drink the entire glass of water at once. I'll dab your lips with wet cotton swabs. Alright?" She coaxed him like she was pacifying a kid.

He couldn't stop smiling as he nodded. "Sure."

With Jenny around, his thirst suddenly didn't feel that bad.

After carefully wetting his lips with the cotton swab, she returned to his bedside. "You can rest now."

"What about you? Do you plan to look after me like this?" He was glad that she chose to keep an eye on him, but he felt sorry for her at the same time.

"Yeah. I'm fine. Dawn is coming soon." She didn't mind staying up. Alec did the same for her before, so she had nothing to complain about when she was in the same position.

Alec didn't share the same opinion. He moved to the side a little to make space. "Come lie down in bed. It must be tiring to sit through the night."

"No, that's fine. The bed is cramped enough. If I lie down, I'll only disturb your rest," she turned him down and stood up. "I'll rest on the couch. Call me over if there's anything."

The couch wasn't spacious, but it was just enough for one. Still, it beat having to rest in a chair.
