To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Thank Goodness You’re a Guy

At Alec’s words, Max shrugged nonchalantly. He said gleefully, “I can’t afford to fool around with Christopher Spade.”

“You, Pearson? Afraid of someone?” Alec was surprised, as if he had stumbled upon something rare.

Max wagged his eyebrows and crossed his arms over his chest. “Fine. I admit that it’s not because I’m afraid of him. I just think that anyone, no matter who, will get on your nerves if they pursue Jenny. Since that’s the case, why should I stir up trouble?” He had already seen through Alec, especially when it came

to Jenny.

Alec looked at him frostily and turned to leave. He feared that if they kept arguing, he would be unable to resist throwing a few punches.

Max smiled even more when he saw his reaction. “What? Are you angry?”

Alec said nothing and walked toward his car.

Max tagged along, saying, “Jenny probably didn’t tell you that she’s already agreed to work with me to take down the Dickmans. Not long from now, the Dickmans are going to disappear off the face of Parrington. I’m curious. Will you help your little lover?”

When Alec heard this, his eyebrows furrowed, but he said nothing.

“Leaving so soon? Let’s at least talk for a bit.” Max kept pestering him. He really wanted to know what Alec was thinking.

Finally, Alec stopped like Max wanted and turned to look at him. “Thank goodness you’re a guy, or I’d think that you liked me from how much you care about me.”

Max was rendered speechless. He had had a big breakfast, and Alec’s words made him want to puke. He looked at Alec in disdain and said, “I’m not like you. I’m straight.”

“You better be.” Alec scoffed and got into his car.

Max watched the car leave. The smile on his face was immediately wiped away, and he turned grim.

Alec had not said whether he would help the Dickmans, meaning there was always a possibility of him helping them.
