To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1116

Upon hearing that, Jenny was truly shocked. She had deliberately waited there to find an opportunity for Evan to take her to Duxdence, but before she could even mention anything about it, he'd taken the initiative to offer her an outing.

Seeing how she kept mum, Evan thought she was still upset and continued, "Jenny, I know you want to go back to Clusia, but...I really hope you can stay here. So, can you at least try? If after some time, you really can't get used to living here, then we can discuss going back."

Jenny came to her senses after a while and nodded in agreement. "Alright then."

Upon hearing that, Evan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Jenny didn't insist on going back. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do. He didn't want to make their relationship too tense, and he knew that Jenny was the type to be persuaded rather than coerced.

"Let's eat," Jenny said. Perhaps because her mood had improved, she spoke to Evan with a bit more patience.

Evan didn't know Jenny's plan; he had even hoped that Jenny would get used to it there and eventually agree to stay. Unfortunately, he was destined to never see that day.

"You seem pretty busy lately. What are you working on?" Jenny asked casually.

Evan thought about it for a moment and didn't withhold anything from her. "After I left, there have been a few traitors among us that caused some trouble. I've been dealing with them."

Jenny nodded, not really interested in the specifics.

"Actually, I haven't taken any mercenary business in a long time. Now that I have my own company with my subordinates, it's not like before." Evan was worried that Jenny might be biased against him, as he knew she disapproved of doing illegal things.

Upon hearing that, Jenny was briefly stunned and wondered why he had purposely told her all that. She'd never shown an interest in any of his affairs at all.
