To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 What Exactly Do You Want?

Faye clearly understood his reasons, but she wanted to bring up the topic of the fines anyway. However, he shut her down by saying, “Thankfully, he only got slapped with a fine. As long as he returns the amount he owes and gets his financial house in order, he won’t go to jail.”

She bit her lips and mumbled slowly, “But the fines are hefty. My dad… can’t pay the fines.”

He frowned at her admission and shot her a glance. “It’s just a few hundred million. How could Lawrence Solutions not afford that?”

“My dad…”

“Faye, you’re an adult. Have a mind of your own, and don’t listen to everything your dad claims,” he cut her off in displeasure, which gave her the jitters. That was the first time he had spoken to her harshly in many

years.

“I got it, Alec. I’ll keep out of this and leave it to my dad.” She knew that the more she asked for Alec’s help, the more he would dislike her. To her, Alec was more important than her parents or Lawrence

Solutions.

However, she was reminded of the conversation she overheard at the door, which revealed that Dr.

Walter was Alec’s ex-wife.

Before this, she had only regarded his ex-wife as a country girl. Although she had never met Jenny, her existence did not bother her much. Now that she learned that Jenny was a doctor, on top of Alec’s feelings for Dr. Walter, she was worried that sparks might fly between the two. She dared not picture the scenario where they remarry.

“No way! I have to do something about it,” she thought. Then, she beamed at him and said, “Alec, let’s have lunch! It’s been a while.”
