To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 What Did She Do for the Past Two Years?

Alec stared at the living room, wondering if he was imagining things or if nothing had changed for the past two years.

“Has the mansion been renovated in the past two years?” he asked Mrs. Langston.

“No,” she replied before adding, “Your grandfather told Mrs. Fau-”

Recalling that Alec and Jenny had divorced, she paused and started again, “Well, he told Miss Walter that she could do as she pleased with the house, but she didn’t change anything.”

Alec’s face darkened. He knew why Jenny made no changes to the house. Like him, she was reluctant to get married. Since she didn’t think it would last long, of course, she wouldn’t waste time decorating the Faust Mansion.

“What did she do for the past two years?”

He felt a sudden urge to know more about Jenny’s past. Mrs. Langston glanced at him, wondering why he was asking about Jenny after their divorce. Nonetheless, she didn’t dare to ask him why, and she told him the truth, “Miss Walter’s daily routine here was very simple. She would tend to the flowers at home, read books and sometimes go out shopping. That’s about it.”

She had persuaded Jenny to look for Alec. After all, it would be strange if a newly wedded couple never met each other.

However, Jenny had merely smiled and said, “Why should I look for him? Isn’t life good now? I have all the freedom I want.”

“Was that it?” Alec wondered. He was a little surprised to discover that she had led such a simple life.

“Was she often at home?” he asked.

“She stayed at home every day. Well, sometimes she would go shopping until it was late, but she always returned here. In fact, she has never spent a night elsewhere,” Mrs. Langston replied. In her opinion, Jenny had been a good wife.
