To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457 I Don’t Care

Jenny didn't quite have an appetite for Alec's food. She wanted to speak, but she wasn't sure how. Then, she thought of Alfred. She asked cautiously, "Your father had been gone for so many years. Do you think that there's a possibility of him having another child?"

Alfred was not that much younger than Alec. Jenny suspected that if he really was Mortimer's child, that would mean that Mortimer and Max's mother was already entangled with each other before eloping. Maybe they eloped because they found out about the child. But, of course, it was all just speculation.

Alec's hands paused. He wasn't expecting that kind of question. "Why are you asking?’

"Nothing much. I was just wondering." She smiled, trying not to look suspicious.

With Alec's state of mind right now, she didn't dare to let Alec know of Alfred's existence. Otherwise, he'd be agitated.

Alec was quiet for a while. "It doesn't matter if he does. I don't care. It has nothing to do with me."

He didn't care about Mortimer, much less his child. Right now, he only cared about Jenny. He didn't know what was happening to him. He was just terribly afraid of losing her. He wished she could stay by his side forever, but he knew he couldn't do that-he'd only push her away. That was why he had to be patient and bear with it, even though it upset him.

Thankfully, the upset in his heart would dissipate when Jenny was within his sight.

"So you wouldn't care?" Jenny was surprised. She thought Alec would be angry.
