To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 723

"You really are here! I was getting worried you wouldn't be coming." Derrick had been looking out for news of Jenny these few days as he needed to decide whether he should date McKenna. When his colleague said a new neurologist was coming in, he immediately thought it might be Jenny, and sure enough, here she was.

Displeasure flared in Jenny's eyes for a split second before she responded, "Mhm. Today's my first day."

"I'm glad to hear it. Wanna celebrate?" Derrick then decided to take action. While McKenna's father was a director, Derrick had bigger appetites beyond mere nurses, and Jenny was right up his alley.

Jenny just didn't want to be involved with this man. She didn't have a good feeling about him. "Not today, I'm afraid. I already have plans."

"Great! Let's go, then. We're all friends, aren't we?" Derrick beamed as if they were really close friends.

Jenny could only maintain a polite smile. They were acquaintances at most, even while studying. As much as she wished to get rid of Derrick, they were still colleagues, so she couldn't risk making a scene.

"Ah…another day, maybe. My treat," she said.

Derrick nodded. "I'll hold you to your word."

"Mhm." There was a cafeteria in the hospital that would be the perfect place for their meal together, she thought. She promised she'd treat him to dinner, not where it would be.

Jenny then left the hospital for home.

After she left, McKenna came up to Derrick, who was still staring off into the distance with a happy expression. She asked coldly, "What do you think you're doing?"
