To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 967

Things were far from being as good as they seemed. Jenny rarely cooked, so washing the vegetables was manageable, but chopping them up...not so much.

"Dr. Walter, are you just as careless when performing surgery on patients?" Alec picked up the potato strips—or, more accurately, the potato chunks.

Jenny looked a little embarrassed. "I haven't really chopped vegetables before."

"Right, just watch from the side." Alec took the knife from her and didn't let her continue with the chopping.

Jenny became even more embarrassed and obediently stood like a child who had done something wrong. Alec covered up the laughter he was about to let out by clearing his throat and sending her downstairs to buy marinara sauce.

"Do we not have any at home?" Jenny asked. She really didn't want to go out.

"No. I didn't notice we didn't have any," Alec replied. It had been a long time since he cooked at Jenny's house, so he'd forgotten about it. He didn't think buying any at the grocery store would be necessary either.

Upon hearing that, Jenny could only put on her shoes pitifully and go out to buy what Alec had requested.

When she got to the grocery store downstairs, the female shopkeeper, who had greeted Jenny a few times and knew she was a doctor, looked like she wanted to gossip. "Jenny, is that guy your boyfriend? I often see you two coming and going together."

"It's not like that! You misunderstood. He lives right across from me, so we often come and go together," Jenny explained.

The shopkeeper smiled mysteriously. "Is that so? Why do I feel like he looks at you differently?"

After all, she had a lot of experience and could naturally see that Alec had a different attitude toward Jenny. No one would believe that he was just a neighbor and nothing else.
