To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 455

Chapter 455 Do You Think I’m Annoying?

The more Jenny thought about it, the more creeped out she felt. If Alfred was Mortimer’s illegitimate son, could it just be a coincidence that he wanted to work at La Vie Jen Rose Designs?

She couldn’t be blamed for overthinking. There were too many coincidences. It was weird, no matter how one looked at it.

“If I’d known earlier, I wouldn’t have hurried the agreement.” Jade was flustered. She had probably thought of his motives, too. If he was truly Mortimer’s illegitimate son, working at La Vie Jen Rose Designs was a suspicious act.

Jenny sighed. The agreement was already signed, so they couldn’t go back on their word now. They couldn’t just lose out on money like that.

“It’s alright. We’ll just observe if he has any ulterior motives. Keep an eye on him,” Jenny instructed. They would handle anything thrown at them. She believed that they would catch him. one day. Then, she added, “But don’t make it too obvious. What if we’re wrong? We’d just upset him.”

“I know.” Jade nodded. However, her attitude toward Alfred was no longer as warm.

Alfred was on the phone in his car. “Don’t worry. Since when have I failed at anything?” he said to the person on the other end. “My identity? So what if they find out? I’m not some criminal. They can’t fire me just because I am your son.” He didn’t think that Jenny was someone like that.

He talked with Mortimer for a bit, then hung up. He’d come to Jenny’s company to grow closer to her.

Not long after, the cars stopped, and they walked into the restaurant.

Jenny and Jade appeared normal. They treated Alfred nicely, albeit on their guard.

Alfred knew nothing of this. He kept up the conversation amicably with Jade and Jenny about the company. Jenny had to admit that Alfred was experienced in that department. All that he said was what Jenny was thinking about. She grew to have a higher opinion of him.

If only he had no ulterior motives.

She had to check it out for herself. What if this was just a misunderstanding?
