To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1187

After an excruciatingly lengthy silence, Pete gave in and asked, "When did you recognize me?"

"First of all, you bear some resemblance to your father," she explained. "Secondly, I looked into the Dafoes before this. Not only do I know you well, I am privy to the matters of all your family members." If people in the Dafoe family tree stood before her, she might recognize and name them better than Pete could.

At this point, Pete's smile was wiped off his smug face, but he soon emerged from his silence as he recalled the main goal of his meeting with Jenny. "Is that so? That's great. I don't even have to introduce you to all of them next time."

"What?" She was perplexed, as though she hadn't figured out the meaning behind his words.

"I think you're a lovely young lady. Since I'm single, I shall allow you to date me." He sounded rather frivolous and seemed to believe that it was Jenny's good fortune to have a chance at dating him.

This time, she burst out laughing. "Are all the Dafoes narcissists?" Eric was conceited, and so was his son. They were family indeed.

"Jenny Walter, I know your family is one of the Ten Elites of Bardoff City, but you are nothing compared to us Dafoes. I am giving you a chance right now," he huffed.

She sighed as she silently questioned her decision to join him at the cafe. Finally, she put on a straight face. "Pete Dafoe, why don't you tell me about your motive instead of wasting time with pleasantries? I still think there is an opportunity for us to work together."
