To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1250

Stephanie stayed by Leonard's side until night fell over the city. Then, Leonard slowly woke up.

"Stephanie?" When he opened his eyes, he saw Stephanie and her reddened eyes. "Why are you crying? Did someone pick on you?"

It was as if he was completely unaware of the situation he was in. His first instinct was to worry about Stephanie.

It made Stephanie's eyes turn even redder. "You're the one picking on me."

"Me?" Leonard was stunned. He got up, but then the aches in his body sent waves of pain washing through him. It hurt so badly that he gnashed his teeth.

Stephanie got up to hold him back. "Don't move. Rest well."

Leonard had no other choice. He wanted to move, but he couldn't. "Sorry. I've made you worry." It was then that he remembered what had happened, and he understood why Stephanie would have tears in her eyes.

He was careless. He hadn't thought the criminals would be brave enough to kidnap him.

Stephanie pouted, doing her best to calm herself down. "You don't have to apologize. You did nothing wrong."

"Stephanie…"

"I'm not mad. That's truly how I feel." Stephanie was serious. She continued, "I get your principles, so I'm supportive of it."

Now it was Leonard's turn to tear up. "Stephanie, I…"

"I just want you to be more careful in the future and not throw yourself headlong into trouble." She didn't want to stop him from doing what he wanted as long as he protected himself.

Leonard nodded, feeling touched. "I will. I promise that something like this will never happen again."

"Alright. That would put me at ease." Stephanie smiled.
