To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 962

The next day, Jenny was busy with work at the hospital as usual when she unexpectedly received a call from Evan. It was the first time he'd called her since the incident.

"Jenny, would you like to have lunch with me this afternoon?" Evan's tone was neutral, so Jenny couldn't gauge his emotions behind the question.

She checked the time and realized she had two more hours to go before she ended her afternoon shift. Jenny thought she should be able to finish consulting her patients by that time, so she accepted Evan's lunch invitation.

"Sure," she replied.

After hanging up, Jenny continued to busy herself with work and didn't think much about why Evan wanted to see her.

Two hours later, Jenny met up with Evan at the hospital gate.

"Sorry for being late," Jenny apologized. She'd been held up by a patient as she was about to leave. After she was done explaining some things to the patient, she ran a little late for her meetup with Evan.

Evan didn't mind. He opened the car door of the passenger seat for Jenny and said, "Get in. I'll take you somewhere for lunch."

Jenny got in the car without refusing or asking where they were going. Soon, the car started and sped off.

During the ride, neither of them spoke. Evan didn't know what to say while Jenny waited for him to speak. She thought that since Evan had called her, he must have figured out how to explain things to her.

Fortunately, they arrived at the restaurant shortly after. Evan led Jenny to a private room. Silence permeated the air as they took their seats.

"What would you like to eat?" The way Evan carried himself seemed no different than usual. If it hadn't been for the fact they hadn't been in touch for a couple of days, Jenny would've thought nothing was wrong.

She returned to her senses and replied casually, "It's up to you. I'm fine with anything."

Evan didn't insist and ordered a few dishes. Unsurprisingly, they were all Jenny's favorites.
