To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181 I Can’t Stand Seeing Her Do Well

Max leaned backward as he chuckled. “Don’t worry. Jenny and I are friends. How could I turn against my friend?”

Alec snickered at the notion and thought, “A friend? He must be keeping her around as a ‘friend’ that would be of use one day.”

The conversation between them ended at the same time as the wedding ceremony. The bride and groom went around greeting and toasting their guests. Soon, the newlyweds arrived at the table where Alec was seated.

“Mr. Bloom, huge congratulations!” Alec raised his glass at Sam. Although the two were not close, there was no bad blood between them, and Alec would like to show him respect.

Sam laughed heartily. He was obviously in a great mood. “Thank you! Enjoy the feast, Mr. Faust! Make yourself at home!”

During their conversation, Max sourly remarked, “Mr. Bloom, you’re quite cool about it, eh? You know Alec and Yvonne were so close to getting married.” Sam Bloom was more of a simpleton than a generous spirit in his eyes. How could he marry a woman like Yvonne after seeing her debacle unfold online? Max wondered what was in Sam’s mind.

Max’s sudden remark attracted collective disapproval from Yvonne and Alec. Yvonne’s glare was razor sharp, as though it could cut right through him. Alec was more concerned that Max’s inappropriate comment might cause uneasiness at Sam’s wedding.

In comparison, Sam was calm after hearing the comment. He smiled and replied, “Well, Mr. Pearson, as you said, they were so close to getting married, and they didn’t. So, they weren’t meant to be. There’s nothing to be upset about.”

“Hah! Mr. Bloom, you’re really open-minded,” Max jeered.
