To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1201

A loud slap echoed in the room. It threw Pete off his balance, and he fell to the ground.

Eric was truly ruthless in his attack, so much so that Pete, a grown man, was left dizzy and disoriented.

"Pete! Where is she?" Eric was losing his mind. He stared intensely at Pete as if he wouldn't hesitate to kill him if his answer was unsatisfactory.

Unfortunately, harsh threats didn't work well on Pete. Initially, he felt guilty about collaborating with Jenny against his father. However, the slap erased all feelings of guilt. He wondered if Eric truly regarded him as his son. Given the way he was acting, Pete was probably nothing more than a dog he raised. Hence, his feelings of guilt completely disappeared. "I genuinely don't understand what you're talking about."

Despite the blood trickling from his mouth, he spoke sincerely, which made Eric suspicious.

"You don't know that the woman upstairs isn't Lynette?" Eric asked.

Feigning shock, Pete answered, "How is that possible? She is obviously Lynette."

Eric didn't say anything, nor did he take any further action. Upon careful consideration, if he hadn't spent so much time with Lynette, perhaps he wouldn't have recognized her immediately.

"You really can't tell that she is a fake?" Eric looked at him skeptically, his gaze fixed on Pete as he tried to see through him.

Unfortunately, Pete had long mastered the skill of pretending in front of Eric. At this moment, Eric could glean nothing from looking at him.

Eric ordered someone to bring the woman down from upstairs. Brandishing a gun, he aimed it at her, asking. "Tell me. Who are you?"
