To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 671

By the time Jenny saw James, he'd been staying at home for one whole day without going out or eating anything, so he looked particularly disheveled.

Jenny felt bad seeing him like that. "James, are you alright?"

He smiled at her and sat on the sofa with a vacant look in his eyes. "I guess so. I couldn't accept it at first. But as time passes, it's not that hard to stomach now."

Perhaps his fate had been sealed since the day he was born as a Windsor. He was destined to not be able to attain happiness.

"It's not as bad as you think. Even if Jolene succeeds in her plan, as long as you remain firm in not marrying her, she can't do anything." Before coming over, she'd seen online rumors about the two of them getting married. People hired by Jolene most likely spread it.

The more she thought about it, the more despicable she found Jolene and her mother to be. They were ruining someone else's happiness for their own selfish reasons. How abhorrent!

James chuckled and looked at Jenny. "In the past, I didn't care much about whom I would marry because I thought I wouldn't like anyone anyway. It didn't matter back then, but it's different now. Someone has occupied my heart, so I'm not willing to marry anyone else."

His gaze was so fervent that Jenny immediately understood what he meant. She wasn't prepared for his sudden confession and was at a loss about what to do.

"Jenny, won't you consider giving me a chance?" James asked.

If Jenny were willing to give him a chance, even if it meant falling out with the entire Walter family, he wouldn't marry Jolene.

Jenny looked guilty as she replied, "In my heart, you're like family to me."

Once she said this, James understood what she meant. He wanted to smile but failed to do so.

"I'll take care of things with the Walters and make sure nobody pressures you. Our families' collaboration won't be affected either." Jenny thought that resolving these issues would suffice, and James would only need to convince his family, which shouldn't be a problem.

However, James shook his head at that. "Since I can't marry you, it doesn't matter whom I marry."
