To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33 What Did You Just Say?

“Dr. Walter!” Alec gnashed his teeth.

Jenny looked nonchalant. She really wished to see him panic, but as a doctor, she couldn’t do that to a patient.

Yes, a patient. In her eyes, Alec was a patient.

No one would pass out because they were afraid of the dark unless they had severe psychological issues or had experienced something that would make them react negatively to the dark.

“I was joking.” Jenny put the phone back and said righteously, “Although I don’t like you, I’m not the type to rub salt in someone’s wound.”

Alec cradled the phone in his hands and looked at her. “You’ve admitted that you don’t like me.”

“Yeah. There’s nothing much to admit.” In the darkness, with no one around, they began to talk.

“Why?” Alec asked. “I don’t remember hurting you.”

“You’ve hurt me tons of times.” Jenny shot him a look. He wouldn’t be reacting this way if he knew that it was his ex-wife in the elevator with him.

Alec frowned. He stared at Jenny. “Such as?”

“Such as the Walkers.” Jenny’s voice was carrying traces of anger. “You knew early on that you would stop working with them. So why did you act like it was because of Stephanie?”

Alec did not defend himself. “The news spread pretty quickly. Did Gilbert tell

you

this?”
