Chapter 70 That’s Right-I Did It
On their way back to the city, Max squinted at Jenny and whispered, “Are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m fine,” she answered. After a slight pause, she emerged from her daze and added, “Thanks.”
He shook his head, smiling. “You don’t have to thank me. I did nothing.”
“I’m glad that you came to save me. That itself speaks volumes.” She didn’t mind the fact that he hadn’t done anything to help. It was decided-she owed Max a favor.
As for Alec… Her expression changed at the thought of him. Since Faye was his woman, her actions implicated him too.
*Should I send you back to Perry Residence?” Max could tell she was in a bad mood, but he refrained from asking questions. After all, he was happy enough to see Alec upset. He could figure out the reason behind the grudge later.
Jenny nodded without another word. She was thinking of revenge.
At the Lawrence Residence, Faye sat on her bed with a pale face. She panicked after she was exposed but soon forced herself to calm down.
So what if Dr. Walter found out about my involvement?” Faye thought. Jenny didn’t have concrete evidence, and the phone card was not registered under anyone’s name. The ATM card which Faye used for the transfer was untraceable abroad. Even if Jenny complained to Alec, no one would believe her. Faye’s fear dissipated after she rationalized the situation. She stood up and left her room to meet with Alec, as she could not sit back and do nothing.
In the living room, she saw someone walking in from the entrance. It was Alec.
“Alec, why are you here?” She smiled and went up to him, but her expression froze when she saw the grave look on his face. He scrutinized the woman with an icy glare as though she was a stranger.
He recalled the time when Anthony entrusted a young Faye to his care. Faye was around twelve years old and loved following him around and calling his name. She looked so innocent back then, but she was a totally different person now upon closer inspection.

Loved the novel!! Hated the ending. It felt rushed to get it finished. I hope there is a sequel. There is a ton of potential for one....
