To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 729

Jenny stopped and sighed in exasperation. "Yes? Is it your turn to fight me now?"

Alicia stepped back as Jenny began cracking her fists. "I-I'm no match for you."

"Smart. Now leave me alone, or you won't get a warning next time," Jenny snapped. This time, Alicia stayed behind while Jenny went to her car because she knew just how dangerous that threat was.

Jenny was about to drive home when someone approached her car door.

"Melissa? You're still here," she exclaimed in surprise.

Melissa smiled awkwardly. "I uh…it's not as easy getting a taxi out here in the country as it was in the city."

Translation: Would you mind giving me a ride back?

"Yeah. Taxis don't get their fair share of customers around these parts." Jenny opened the passenger seat door. "Get in then."

Melissa gladly went in, tossing Alicia into the back of her mind.

Jenny soon reached the freeway.

"Where to?" she asked Melissa, though there came no response. When Jenny turned to look, she spotted Melissa dozed off against the window.

Jenny bit back an amused laugh. Was this woman brave or just trusting enough? They'd just been fighting one another in that field back there, yet Melissa wasn't at all concerned if Jenny would hurt her.

Jenny shook her head and drove back to Walter Castle.

Half an hour later, Melissa woke up from her nap to find the car had stopped moving. "Hm? Are we there yet?"
