Alec smiled softly and looked at Jenny. "Grandpa, I only want Jenny as my wife. Of course, I won't let go of her.""Haha!" Old Mr. Faust laughed heartily. "See, you're creating trouble for yourself! Had you listened to me, things wouldn't have ended up this complicated!"Alec had only succeeded in making Jenny his girlfriend after the winding detour, which was still a far cry from her wife status in the past.Looking embarrassed, he rubbed his nose and said, "This shows that Jenny and I are destined to be. No matter how much we've gone through, we still end up together."Old Mr. Faust did not reply, as he had decided to close an eye on Alec's remark. After all, his grandson would never admit that he had been making dumb decisions in his relationship with Jenny.The three of them chatted for a while before Old Mr. Faust shooed Alec into the kitchen. "Go, go! The kitchen needs your help. I need a private chat with Jenny.""Sure, but you'd better not bully her," Alec replied, earnin
Jenny was surprised when Old Mr. Faust brought up the issue. She knew about his intention early on, but evidently, she didn't care because she never bothered to bring it up anymore. Of course, she hated being a pawn in someone's game, but she acknowledged that Old Mr. Faust treated her well during her two-year marriage. Moreover, she was the one who gave the final nod to the marriage after Old Mr. Faust and her grandpa discussed it. Therefore, she had no one to blame."Grandpa, why are you bringing it up? It's all in the past now." She smiled at him with a calm look on her face, much to his relief. He insisted, "It doesn't matter. I was in the wrong. I had wanted to find a chance to apologize, and I feel better now that I have done it."In reality, he insisted on apologizing to her because he feared Jenny would hold a grudge against the Fausts due to his selfish intentions from years ago."It's all in the past," she repeated. Yes, everything was in the past. Old Mr. Faust might ha
The three of them were chatting over dinner at the dining table. Suddenly, Old Mr. Faust thought of something and waved at Warren. He then whispered something to the butler when he leaned in. Warren left very quickly, but he appeared again before long.Jenny saw that the thing Warren brought over was a letter. That was quite unexpected."I suddenly remembered that we received a letter after you moved to Bardoff City. It's from Faye." He had not opened it and had no intention of giving it to Alec either before this. He was mainly worried that it might affect Jenny and Alec's relationship.However, Old Mr. Faust felt there was no need for him to be so concerned anymore. Their relationship was much better than he had expected. Therefore, he decided to hand the letter to Alec. After all, it was meant for him. He was Alec's grandfather, but he had no right to stop the letter from getting to him.Jenny felt like it was only yesterday that everything had happened when she heard Faye's nam
He was so straightforward that Jenny didn't know what to say for a moment. "Are you sure? She was the person your savior had asked you to take care of.""So what if he had saved my life? Do you think I'm—" Alec stopped mid-sentence. "In any case, I won't sacrifice my lifetime of happiness for her."Jenny knew what he wanted to say. He wanted to bring up the fact that she had promised to take care of Evan. She pursed her lips and said nothing anymore. In any case, Alec better kept his word. Otherwise, she should not be blamed for showing no mercy.Old Mr. Faust glanced at the two of them. Seeing they didn't get mad, he said satisfactorily, "That's right. You should just talk it through if there are any issues. I've never liked Faye."He had always felt back then that Alec had taken too much care of Faye. However, no matter what he said back then, Alec wouldn't listen.Fortunately, Alec had regained his senses at that moment. He was no longer as foolish as he was before."That show
Old Mr. Faust sneered a few times. He finally let Alec go after warning him once again. When Alec came downstairs, Jenny was lying on the couch in the living room while tapping away on the phone. She was most probably chatting with someone as she was smiling."What are you talking about?" Alec walked over and stood behind her.Jenny did not hide from him. While sending the message, she replied, "I'm discussing with Steph and Jade what kind of bridesmaid dresses to choose. We want something that looks good without stealing the bride's thunder.""Any results? Let me have a look." Alec smiled and shook his head. He was thinking that women had plenty of choices, unlike men, who did not even need to choose. A black suit for all would do the job.Jenny put her phone in front of Alec. "What do you think of this?"Alec took a closer look at it. It was a long, green dress that might not be flattering on everybody. However, he glanced at Jenny's figure and complexion and felt that she wou
When Jenny woke up the following day, Alec had already made breakfast, and Old Mr. Faust was also sitting at the dining table. They seemed to be waiting for her.Jenny felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly went to the dining room downstairs. "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I overslept.""It's fine. It's still early. I'm up early because of my age. Don't compare yourself to me," Old Mr. Faust said with a smile, inviting her over for breakfast.Jenny sat down at the table and then looked at Alec. "What time did you wake up to make breakfast?""Not that early. Warren was the one who got most of it." He only woke up to make the pancakes."Thanks for your hard work." Jenny smiled at him, feeling a little apologetic.Alec felt happy when he heard her saying that. "Making breakfast for you is not hard work for me at all ."If Jenny wanted it, he could make breakfast for her for the rest of her life."Ahem!" Old Mr. Faust cleared his throat. "I'm still here."How had he never noticed that hi
Soon, the plane took off and headed toward Bardoff City. Jenny felt sleepy as soon as she boarded the plane, so she fell asleep on Alec's shoulders very quickly.Alec waved to a stewardess, requesting a blanket. Then, he put the blanket on Jenny gently. The gentleness in his eyes was almost spilling over. The stewardess standing at the side was extremely envious when she saw it.She could not help but ask softly, "Sir, is she your wife?""Not yet. She's my girlfriend," Alec replied without thinking too much about it. His gaze was fixed on Jenny the whole time.It was inevitable that the stewardess would think she still had a chance when she heard that Jenny was only his girlfriend.In this day in age, even a married couple could get divorced, let alone a couple that had yet to get married. They might be madly in love at that moment, but who could tell how long they could stay together?Thinking of that, the stewardess plucked up the courage to ask, "Sir, may I have your contact?
The cabin manager rolled her eyes when she heard that. Then, she sneered coldly and said, "You know very well why you did that. I don't wish to expose you, but if you affected your work, don't blame me for not showing you mercy."The stewardess wanted to say something else, but the cabin manager didn't let her. "Why don't you look closely at who that person is? How could you even think you're worthy?""Who is he?" The stewardess had just joined this airline after leaving her previous employment. She was not from Parrington, so she truly didn't know Alec.The cabin manager didn't answer her question. Instead, she looked at her in disdain. "In any case, he's someone out of your league."Then, the cabin manager left. The stewardess, however, was a little unwilling to admit defeat. She looked up Alec's name on the passenger list and committed it to memory. She was thinking of checking his identity out later when she left the plane.Soon, the plane landed. Jenny woke up just in time. S
