To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 982

Soon, Alec had a plate of dipping sauce in front of him, but he smelled the strong acidic vinegar and was momentarily at a loss for words. "Is this the dipping sauce you brought me?"

"Don't you like vinegar, just like how you like sour grapes?" Jenny asked with an innocent look on her face, seemingly puzzled about what the problem was.

Alec was speechless. Of course, he was well aware that Jenny was implying his jealousy was unwarranted. He could only force a smile and reply, "Yes, you're right. I do like sour stuff."

Max and Jade, sitting across from them, couldn't hear their conversation, but they could see the way they spoke softly to each other, like they were in their own little world. Their interactions went beyond that of a normal friendship.

"Have they gotten back together?" Max asked, looking at them quizzically. They looked more like a couple than he and Jade did.

Jade chuckled and didn't know what to say. "I don't think so."

"Hmm..." Max snorted humorlessly, wondering how much longer they planned to keep up that "more than friends but not quite lovers" act.

Soon, the fondue was served. None of them were particularly fond of fruits, but they thought they should still eat some because only eating bread and meat with cheese would be too heavy on their palates.

"Have some apples." Jenny proceeded to put some apple slices onto Alec's plate.

Alec looked at the apples on his plate and couldn't help but comment, "Are you trying to hint at something?"

Jenny was speechless. She just thought that Alec should have some fruit since he didn't eat them much on normal days. What could she imply? Did he think she was implying that he was the apple of her eye?

"You decide whether you want to eat it or not. I don't care," she said, thinking it was his problem that he was a picky eater if the food wasn't to his liking.

The corner of Alec's eyes scrunched up as he smiled; he was obviously teasing Jenny. "Well, I can't refuse the food you've served me, can I?"
