To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 852

In the face of Evan's mockery, Alec was unfazed. He approached Evan because he had something to discuss with him and not to argue or pick a fight.

After Evan was done speaking, Alec asked, "Does it matter which fool it is? What matters is whether they'll cause you trouble, don't you think?"

Evan frowned and stared at Alec for a while before smiling. "What are you trying to say?"

Alec wouldn't approach him for no reason. There must be a purpose behind his action; he couldn't have come up to him simply for an idle chat.

"Why don't you help me deal with Xavier?" Alec smiled, and from his tone, it sounded more like he wanted to discuss the matter rather than ask him a favor.

Evan was surprised by Alec's words. He looked at him for a while, and after confirming that Alec wasn't joking, he couldn't help but laugh. "What makes you think I would help you? Besides, it's Luke who's in my way now, not his father. Aren't you taking me for a fool by asking me to deal with Xavier?"

It was Luke who was pestering Jenny. If anything, Alec should be asking him to take action against Luke, not Xavier. Evan wouldn't lend a hand if Alec were purely trying to use him to deal with the Fausts, who posed a threat to him.

Alec wasn't worried about Evan's questioning, he continued, "Luke doesn't have much say within the Fausts. Even if you deal with him, it won't be effective. There will be other Fausts who'll look for trouble with you after you get rid of him. Therefore, it's unnecessary. It's Xavier and Yakov who are currently in the running for the position to become the head of the Faust family. As for Luke and Julian, they're still young, so it's not their turn yet."

Evan understood the reasoning, but he wasn't keen on assisting Alec. "Even so, I won't help you with Xavier. On top of that, you're overestimating me. I'm just an ordinary person. How would I have the ability to deal with the Fausts?"
