To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290 Don’t Take Me as a Fool

“Why?” Christopher gave Harvey a perplexed look and waited for an explanation.

Harvey merely glanced at him and said casually, “It’s good to have more friends.”

It puzzled Christopher even more. “Grandpa, don’t take me as a fool.” He was speechless at the lame excuse. “Friends? Since when do I need friends?” he thought.

Harvey coughed in embarrassment after his intention was exposed. “I think Jenny is a decent lady. I’d like you to bring her around Bardoff and bond with her.”

“But didn’t you say that it was a joke?” Christopher recalled that Harvey had asked him to pursue Jenny in Parrington, but they both took it as a joke. He had long put that memory at the back of his mind. Something felt off when Harvey brought up the matter again after a long time.

Feeling annoyed by the barrage of questions, Harvey grumbled, “What’s with all the questions? Don’t be noisy, and get it done!”

“I won’t!” Christopher shook his head furiously. “I don’t even love her. Why do we need to bond?”

“Who do you love, then?” Christopher had no good answer to Harvey’s question. Harvey pressed on, “Do you know what is love?” When he was met with silence again, he advised his grandson earnestly, “See? You have no idea what’s love like. If you can’t define it, how are you sure you’re not in love with Jenny? Perhaps you do, but you haven’t realized it yet.”

A confounded Christopher questioned himself, “Do I love Jenny?”
