To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Who?

Jenny grew up in Orchid Village. She had grown up there for as long as she could remember, and everything there was familiar to her.

As a child, she started to learn various skills. However, she didn’t learn them from school but from the teachers in the village. She always thought that her teachers were amazing as they knew everything.

Back then, she didn’t think it was strange. She thought children in other villages all grew up the same way.

She eventually matured into an adult, studied in Parrington, earned her master’s and doctorate degrees, and married Alec. The more she learned, the more Orchid Village seemed off to her.

Every teacher in the village who taught her was a master of their craft. For example, Mr. Birkett was a famous painter. However, he stayed in that village just to be her teacher. There had to be a reason, but Jenny didn’t know why.

She had asked her grandfather before but didn’t get an answer. All he told her was not to think too much, and she would know the answer when the time was right.

“Jenny?”

Alec didn’t wait for Jenny to reply. Seeing her lost in thought, he couldn’t help but shake her out of it.

After coming to her senses, Jenny looked at him. “My grandfather hired a lot of teachers for me since I was a child. Hence, although I grew up in the countryside, I know a lot of things.”

She didn’t go into the specifics as she didn’t want too many people to know how strange her life in Orchid Village had been.

“Wow, your grandfather was very kind to you.” All of Jenny’s teachers were extraordinary people.

Jenny chuckled lightly before playfully saying, “Well, now that I’m an adult, I feel that way, but as a kid, I remember thinking he was too strict.”

Reflecting on her childhood, Jenny realized she had experienced little joy. Every day, she ran back and forth between different teachers’ homes without any time to rest.

Reluctant to study, she had complained to her grandfather, but it was to no avail. However, thinking about it in the present, he must have done it for her own good.
