To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 676

Jenny wanted to say that James was her senior and was like family to her. But when she was about to say that, she suddenly noticed Alec's abnormal interest in her affairs. She stared at him suspiciously and said, "Mr. Faust, aren't you getting too involved in my business?"

"Do you really think I care? I was just worried our collaboration would be affected if you were in such a state. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered." Alec sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

"Is that so?" Jenny responded. She couldn't quite shake off the feeling that something was off.

To be exact, something had felt off about Alec ever since he had called her. He hadn't taken the initiative to see her since he went missing. Today, he called her and even handed her information about the Glasses. The reason behind his actions didn't seem as simple as he made them out to be.

"What else do you think it could be? You don't seriously think I care about you, do you?" He spoke sarcastically with contempt in his eyes.

Jenny had suspicions of that being the case, but now, that conjecture was thoroughly overturned.

"That would be the best. You and I aren't close friends or confidants, so you shouldn't ask me about my business in the future." Alec wasn't the only one capable of blunt and insensitive remarks. Two could play that game.

Alec was annoyed and felt that he was wasting his breath. "Rest assured that I'm not interested in your affairs."

"But I'm quite interested in your business, though." Jenny suddenly started smiling. "What's going on between you and Miss Watkins?"

Alec's expression stiffened. He couldn't quite catch up to Jenny's tone, which changed all of a sudden.

"What does it have to do with you?"
