To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 999

Jenny lowered her eyes. She truly had no idea about the existence of such henchmen in the Walters. However, she didn't think too much about it. Either Graham had not entrusted her because he thought she wasn't capable of handling them yet, or he thought it was better for him to retain control over them for the time being.

"Do you think Zeke was the one behind everything this time?" Jenny asked Alec, eager to find out the identity of the culprit behind the scenes.

Alec pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "I don't think so."

"Why are you so sure?" Jenny looked at him, surprised at how he'd swiftly come to that conclusion without any hesitance.

Now, it was Jenny's turn to be silent. Although she felt it was unlikely that Zeke was the mastermind, she couldn't think of anyone else besides him.

Seeing Jenny racking her brain over the matter, Alec got up and leaned her back against the hospital bed. "Rest well. I'll investigate this matter. Although those people are dead, we can still find out their identities and get some clues."

Jenny murmured in agreement, not saying anything else. She needed to get well soon, as there were many things she needed to handle personally. Thinking of that, she closed her eyes to sleep but opened them again the next moment.

"You can go back now. I'm fine, so you don't need to stay here and watch over me."

Alec had as much to do as she did, and she felt guilty that he'd been staying with her all night. Smiling and shaking his head, Alec insisted on staying. "I feel more at ease watching over you."

"Alec—"

"Go to sleep. There's a couch over there. I'll sleep for a while after you fall asleep," Alec said.

Since Alec was so insistent, Jenny had no choice but to give up on persuading him to go back. She was well aware that she couldn't make Alec change his mind.

With that, she closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep. After Jenny was sound asleep, Alec quietly left the ward and sat on the bench outside the door, dialing a number on his phone.
