To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 700

Jenny put down her cutlery and looked at Jolene with a sympathetic look. "Have you ever considered the possibility that he abhors you?"

"No! That's impossible! It must be you!" Jolene refused to admit it.

Jenny shook her head, thinking that Jolene was hopeless, and got up to leave. Before she left, she reminded Jolene, "Remember to go back early. If you go back late and upset James, you won't be able to return to Walter Castle, and you won't be able to stay with the Windsors as well."

With that, Jenny left, ignoring Jolene's angry shouts behind her.

Jolene was furious and helpless. She cursed Jenny vehemently in the dining room, but what good would that do? Anyone who saw her behaving like that wouldn't think much of her. Even Rowena, who was sitting beside her, looked indifferent.

Rowena dismissed the servants and let Jolene curse until she was out of breath before asking, "Do you feel better now?"

Jolene finally stopped. She clenched her jaw and remained silent.

"Perhaps I've protected you too well all these years, which has made you incapable of controlling yourself now. You can't even solve problems independently."

Rowena regretted how she raised Jolene. Since Jolene was her only daughter, she pampered her since childhood, thinking it would be good for her daughter. But now she realized that maybe letting Jolene suffer a little when she was young would have been better for her growth.

There was no turning back time. What she could do now was let Jolene grow up and make her understand that no one could handle everything for her forever.

Jolene was still upset, but fortunately, she didn't cry anymore. "Mom, I understand what you mean, but...James is deliberately tormenting me."

"Didn't I warn you about this before you went over? And how did you respond at that time?" Rowena's expression became cold. She had reminded Jolene last night, but she didn't listen and even mocked her.

Jolene pursed her lips and remained silent.
