To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 827

Jenny would've agreed to dinner with Luke if it weren't for her needing to go to the police station. She had just inherited the title of the family's head, after all. There was no reason not to keep the peace with the Fausts.

"You misunderstand, Mr. Luke. I really do have an errand to run. The police need me to make a statement at the station about what happened last night."

Sometimes it didn't seem like there were any upsides to inheriting the title. If it weren't for her family, she wouldn't consider going out for dinner with Luke Faust.

The man believed her. "Why don't I drive you there? I have time."

"Uh…no, thank you." Now Jenny was at a loss for what to do. She really, really didn't want anything to do with Luke.

Just then, Alec came by. "Hey, Jenny. Off work already? C'mon, let's grab dinner."

Jenny was surprised to hear that, then quickly recovered upon realizing what Alec was doing. "Yeah. Okay."

"Let's go." Alec ignored Luke entirely. He'd usually show him decent respect in front of Zeke, but they were nowhere near the man right now, so.

Jenny was about to leave with Alec when Luke grabbed her by the wrist. "Didn't you say you had to go to the station? You turned down my offer for dinner, but here you are accepting Alec's?"

"Of course she is. What are you to her?" Alec forcefully pried Luke's grip off of Jenny, then stood in front of her protectively.
