To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 822

Yvonne's scheme still worked in the end. Brandon let her stay after what she said, unable to let himself and anyone else think he was afraid of Jenny.

Meanwhile, Jenny was sent home by Evan after dropping Stephanie off.

"Jen, about earlier tonight—"

"You should get some rest, Evan." Jenny smiled kindly. "I know what you're thinking, and I don't blame you whatsoever, so please don't worry about it."

It was obvious Evan was still glum about not having run up to Jenny's rescue at the first second, but to her, it was a blessing in disguise, as she wouldn't have known how to pay back the debt if something had happened to him.

As for Alec, well…

"I know you don't, but I do." Evan blamed himself for not having saved Jenny before Alec did.

Jenny sighed. "Can we drop this? It's in the past now. I really just want to rest for the night."

"Alright then." Evan nodded. No point settling it right now when Jenny was exhausted.

Jenny nodded and left his car, going back into Walter Castle.

Evan could only stare longingly at her back, contemplating in silence.

The next day, having subdued the press and told the guests at the celebration to keep silent, Randy's attempt at a suicide bombing at Jenny's celebration event didn't make the headlines. It would have a terrible impact on Walter Inc if that news went out, after all.

Still, to Jenny's surprise, what replaced the news headlines were Alec and Blake's breakup.
