To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 How Dare You Compare Yourself to Her?

In the end, Yvonne didn’t lay a finger on Jenny because someone held her back even before Jenny reached out to stop her.

“Alec…” Yvonne’s heart sank when she saw Alec appearing out of nowhere. She was anxious that he might get angry at her for trying to slap Jenny.

Jenny looked at him as well. Since he approached from the front, she guessed he might have taken a detour from the other side of the wall.

“Huh, he must be afraid that he’d get busted by Yvonne,” Jenny thought. “He’s a huge jerk for dragging me along while worrying about Yvonne finding out.”

Still, she was mostly angry at herself. After learning that Alec was a jerk, she still fell for his seduction. The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to slap him to calm her anger.

Yvonne’s wrist was in pain from Alec’s tight grip, and she almost fell to her knees. “Alec, I…” Tears welled up in her eyes as she searched for an excuse.

He let go of her and said in a strict but doting tone, “Dr. Walter is Grandpa’s guest. You’re being a little rude to her.”

Yvonne was in disbelief at his cool response. She gathered herself and looked at Jenny. “I’m sorry, Miss Walter. I was too agitated just now. I shouldn’t have been rude to you.”

Jenny remained silent as she examined Alec. Was that all he had to say about the situation? His inaction weighed heavily on her heart, and she found it hard to breathe.

The memory of their secret kiss in the corner was fresh in mind, yet Alec was now protecting Yvonne, as though he didn’t care about Yvonne trying to slap her.

Since Jenny didn’t say a word, Yvonne had to speak again, “Miss Walter, I believe you’re easygoing. You won’t hold it against me, right?”
