To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308 Difficult

Alec was about to speak when Max cut him off, “You promised not to tell anyone until the matter is successful.”

Alec nodded and whispered to Jenny, “I’ll tell you when he’s not around.” Jenny giggled and covered her mouth.

Annoyed by their whispering, Max said, “Don’t think I didn’t hear you!”

Jenny found his reaction amusing. As Jade approached them from afar, Jenny said, “I don’t care about your past, Max, but if you want to pursue Jade, you have to give up your old ways. She’s not like those other women outside.”

Max glared at her. “Why do you always lecture people?”

His question annoyed her. “I just want to make sure Jade is treated right.”

Finally, Max relented and whispered, “I’m not fooling around.” He had no shortage of women around him. If he were just fooling around, he wouldn’t have continued wasting his time after Jade repeatedly refused him.

Just then, Jade arrived at the table, surprised to see Alec there. “Mr. Faust, you’re here too?” she asked. “Just call me Alec,” he said with a smile. “Calling me Mr. Faust sounds too formal.” He was polite to Jade since she was someone important to Jenny.

Jade nodded, saying, “Okay.”

Alec took care of Jenny attentively the entire meal, and Jade was pleased with his behavior. Max tried to help Jade, but she declined his offer. “There’s no need, Mr. Pearson. I can manage it myself.”
