To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 974

Early in the morning, Jenny was awakened by the laughter of children in the neighborhood. She opened her eyes groggily, picked up her phone from the bedside, and saw that it was not yet 7 am. The children should be asleep now, so why were they making noise downstairs?

Before she could fully wake up, the doorbell rang. Jenny struggled to get out of bed. The moment she opened the door, she saw Alec standing outside. She felt a little irritated at being awakened from her sleep prematurely. "Mr. Faust, why are you at my door so early?"

She was puzzled. Alec never came to look for her so early in the morning. "Did something bad happen?" Jenny started making guesses blindly.

"Get dressed and come downstairs." Observing Jenny's expression, Alec guessed that she'd just woken up and probably didn't know what was happening outside.

"I don't want to go. I want to sleep a little longer." Jenny turned to go back to her room, but Alec grabbed her wrist.

"Listen to me this once, Jenny." Alec's expression was serious, and he wasn't joking. This made Jenny feel perturbed and worried. Had something really gone wrong?

Thinking of this, she grabbed her coat from the door and put it on, ready to go downstairs with him.

"This is too thin. Wear something thicker," Alec reminded her.

"Is it?" Jenny wondered. She wore the same coat yesterday and didn't feel cold at all. But under Alec's gaze, she went back to her room and put on a down jacket before coming back out.

"Is this thick enough?" she asked.

"Yeah, let's go." Alec smiled and nodded, taking her hand and leading her toward the elevator.

Jenny was still puzzled. Based on Alec's expression, there probably wasn't anything wrong. But if there wasn't anything wrong, why did he wake her up so early and make her go downstairs with him?

"Alec, what's going on?" She couldn't help but ask.

Alec smiled and didn't answer. "Don't worry. You'll know soon enough."
