To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 Prepared for the Worst

Yvonne regretted visiting Jenny that night. She wondered what would happen to herself if Jenny followed through with the idea of remarrying Alec. However, she couldn’t let the opportunity to gloat about the marriage in front of Jenny go to waste.

At first, she had given up all hopes of marrying Alec, especially after he gave her that murderous look. To her surprise, Alec released her. When she realized the rumors about her marriage to him were still circulating online, she started to get her hopes up

“Has he acknowledged the marriage if he hasn’t done anything to get rid of the rumors?” she thought. She also wondered if Old Mr. Faust had forced Alec to marry her to protect their reputation. No matter what, she considered the situation manageable. If Old Mr. Faust forced Alec to marry her, she stood a high chance of getting married to him. The thought of it cheered her up.

Jenny was in a bad mood after Yvonne left. She had planned to cook dinner but lost all her appetite. For that, she started cursing Alec in silence. Everything started because of him.

Amid her,irritation, she got a call from Gilbert. He briefed her on the Dickmans’ current situation and suddenly asked, “Alec Faust is marrying Yvonne Dickman. What do you think of it?”

“What does that have to do with me? Why do you even ask me, Gilbert?” Jenny wondered why everyone was concerned about her relationship with Alec when there was none.

Gilbert felt relieved after learning about her stance. “You’re his ex-wife, after all. I just wanted to get your opinion. Do you think he’d marry her? And would he help the Dickmans after the marriage?”

She understood that he was concerned about Alec helping the Dickmans. If that happened, it would be impossible for them to crush the Dickmans. She thought it over and answered, “I have no idea. We need to be prepared for the worst, either way.”

Alec seemed to have no intentions of helping Yvonne’s family, but it would be tough for him to watch his in-laws go bankrupt without lending a hand after he married Yvonne.

“Yeah, you’re right.” Gilbert nodded. He was not defeated. Anyway, he benefitted enough from the Dickmans, and even if he stopped right there, he would not suffer from any loss.
