To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223 She Knows

“Of course he’d cover for his friend,” Jenny thought.

She remembered the call she had with Alec that day. His tone was off, and she hadn’t noticed anything then. But now that she looked back on it, it seemed obvious.

It was no wonder that Alec didn’t come to see her these past few days. He didn’t contact her often, either. He was probably afraid that he would give something away.

At once, it felt as if a huge rock were weighing down on Jenny. She couldn’t breathe.

She got up and walked out of the room. “I’m going to make a call:”

Gilbert didn’t ask her any questions. He guessed that Jenny was going to call Alec. He was happy to see this happening. He didn’t believe for one second that Alec knew nothing about this, and Jenny would not believe it, either.

Jenny went to the balcony and took a deep breath before calling Alec.

“Jenny?” Alec’s voice sounded the moment the call went through. He seemed surprised that Jenny would

call him.

She said nothing, suddenly realizing she didn’t know what to say.

Should she interrogate him? What right did she have to do that? She and Alec were not in that kind of relationship. He was doing nothing wrong in covering for Paul.

“Jenny? What’s wrong? Have you found anything on Stephanie?” Alec was worried when he didn’t hear her

talk.

At the mention of Stephanie, Jenny’s face shifted. “No. Have you?”

“No,” he replied.
