To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48 What Kind of Person Is Your Ex-Husband?

The next morning, Jenny tiredly climbed out of bed. After being tormented by her empty stomach last night, she knew she couldn’t afford to sleep through breakfast.

As she walked toward the kitchen, the doorbell sounded. She was a little surprised. Who would come knocking at this hour?

She opened the door, a little hesitant. When she realized it was Alec, she was so stunned that her jaw slackened.

What was he doing here?

“Have you eaten?” he asked.

Jenny shook her head. Right as she was wondering what he was doing, he stepped in with a pack of food. The restaurant’s name, The Crispy Buns, was clearly branded on the packaging.

Jenny knew about The Crispy Buns. It was a really popular place in Parrington. People said their food smelt amazing, and she had always wanted to try it.

Could Alec be bringing her breakfast?

“Eat it. It’s still fresh.” He put the food on the table.

Jenny didn’t move. She had to stand there for a long time before acknowledging that this was not all just a dream. “You’re… you’re bringing me breakfast?”

“Don’t overthink it. I wanted to eat it too. This was just an afterthought,” he answered. His voice was cold. It didn’t sound all too friendly.

Was she the one overthinking?

She walked over hesitantly. Seeing the food, she felt like this wasn’t real. “I didn’t know you were so nice, Mr. Faust.”

Her words were a little sarcastic, but she truly did think that he was a nice person.

However, Alec hadn’t heard her sincerity. A smile appeared briefly on his lips. “You’re just blind. I’ve always been nice.”

Jenny scoffed to herself.

They ate in silence as they ate. Neither of them spoke.

Jenny suddenly remembered the information that she had found last night. She glanced at Alec, and he caught her looking.
