An hour later, Jenny collapsed on the bed. Looking at the man beside her, she grumbled, "It's all your fault! I haven't had dinner because of you.""Don't be angry. I'll go make your dinner now." With that, Alec climbed out of bed, put on his clothes, and went downstairs to the kitchen.Although Jenny had scolded him, she didn't really blame him. She just felt a little embarrassed as she never expected she would someday live such an intimate life with Alec.After staying in the room for a while, she took a shower before going to the kitchen downstairs, where Alec had begun to cook. Seeing his skilled movements, it was hard to imagine that he had just been messing around with her in bed."Just wait a little longer. The food is almost ready." Fortunately, Jenny had already prepared the ingredients, making everything faster as he only needed to cook them. Jenny leaned against the kitchen doorway, watching Alec cook, thoroughly enjoying the moment. About ten minutes later, he was
Ten hours later, the plane landed at the airport in Eldezar. As Jenny walked out of the airport, she immediately called Alec to let him know she had arrived safely. After hanging up, Jenny followed the other hospital staff to the hotel. After a brief rest, she started busying herself with preparations for the conference the next day.Alec was busy too. The villa they had been staying in had already been emptied. At that moment, he was looking at a new house in front of him with a smile. That happened to be his and Jenny's new home.He had bought the previous villa because Evan was living there. Since it was far from Jenny's hospital and Faust Group's headquarters, Alec had long wanted to move out. Moreover, Evan was already a thing of the past, and there was no need for Alec to continue living there because of him.He watched the new house slowly fill up with his and Jenny's belongings. Aside from the location, it seemed that not much else had changed. Of course, it wasn't completel
Although she was in her late twenties, Quinn maintained her excellent figure. Donning a seductive fishtail skirt, she slowly approached Alec. "Alec, even if you don't like me anymore, there's no need to avoid me.""Avoiding you? I'm busy," Alec said, glancing at her without a trace of emotion in his eyes. To him, Quinn was just someone he used to know, not someone he was ever close with."Are you really that busy? You seem quite free to me," Quinn lightly laughed, covering her mouth. She made herself at home and took a seat on the sofa.Alec was in no mood to waste time with her. "Why did you come?""It's about the thing I was telling you about," Quinn said."I can't help you with that," Alec said, refusing her outright. "Take care of your own matters. I'm just an acquaintance, not your father.""Alec, are you afraid your wife would get jealous if you got too close to me?" Quinn asked, laughing as if she was mocking Alec for being henpecked.Alec didn't think that was anything t
At 8 pm, Jenny's plane landed at Bardoff Airport. After exiting the airport, she hailed a taxi and headed straight home, wondering what Alec might be doing at this time. She figured that he was probably working.Ten minutes later, the car pulled up in front of the villa. Jenny looked at the brightly lit living room and couldn't help but smile. She walked in, not noticing the changes around her as she was eager to see Alec.Pushing open Alec's bedroom door, a woman emerged from the bathroom, rendering her stunned. Jenny stared at the woman, speechless. But soon, she recognized the woman."Quinn?" She wasn't entirely sure, but the woman in front of her bore a striking resemblance to the woman she had seen in the photos before.Quinn didn't expect someone to suddenly appear in her room, but she quickly realized what was happening and grinned. "Jenny?""Why are you in my house?" Jenny questioned, her face falling.She hadn't thought about Quinn for a long time, thinking she would nev
Ten minutes later, Alec's car pulled up at the villa. As he walked into the living room and saw two women sitting on opposite sides of the sofa, a migraine began to form in his head. "Jenny, why did you come back today?" Alec approached Jenny cautiously, asking with concern. If he had known that Jenny was coming back today, he would have been waiting for her at the airport and taken her to their new house, avoiding this encounter with Quinn.Having no clue of his plans, Jenny's face instantly darkened. "If I hadn't come back today, would I have discovered what you were doing behind my back?""Jenny, it's a misunderstanding. I wanted to give you a surprise..." Alec tried to explain."A surprise? It's quite surprising indeed." Jenny laughed coldly, glancing at Quinn.Quinn ignored their conversation and played with her phone. "Miss Walter, you've misunderstood. Alec hasn't done anything to hurt you. Although he gave me this house to live in, he—""You shut up!" Alec yelled, feelin
The car quickly arrived at their new home, which had been newly renovated and adorned with decorations, giving off a newlywed vibe. When Jenny got out of the car and looked at the house in front of her, she started believing Alec more. However, she was still unhappy.As Alec led her into the house, she realized the interior design was identical to their previous home, ensuring that everything felt familiar. "Jenny, look, I didn't lie to you," Alec said, looking sad.Jenny looked around and then sat on the sofa, lost in thought. Although she believed Alec, she still felt uneasy. "Why did Quinn suddenly come to see you? Doesn't she know anyone else?""I...I don't think so." Alec didn't think much about it. He simply thought it wouldn't hurt to give her a place to stay."Are you sure she's telling you the truth and not trying to deceive you?" Jenny couldn't fully trust Quinn. According to Quinn, she came to Bardoff City to seek refuge with Alec because she wanted to force the man wh
Alec thought that her question was absolutely unnecessary. Besides, he never intended to help Quinn. "Why should I help her? I'm already being kind enough to her by giving her a place to stay." If he'd known that he would very nearly get into an argument with Jenny because of this, he wouldn't have let her stay there at all."Hey, all things considered, she was still your first love." Jenny couldn't help but tease Alec, smiling as she looked at him.Alec was speechless upon hearing her words and quickly explained, "She and I never got together! How can she be considered my first love? If I think about this whole first love thing carefully, you're my first love! You have to take responsibility for me.""How am I supposed to take responsibility for you? You're my first love, too," Jenny defended herself."Really? But didn't you like Evan before you liked me?" Alec purposely mentioned Evan again in hopes of making Jenny understand what kind of relationship he and Quinn had.Upon he
After listening to Quinn's explanation, the first thought that came to Jenny's mind was, "How ridiculous! How could she think this was fun in any way? She's so ridiculous! Was it fun for her to see me and Alec argue because of her?"Jenny's expression became glum. Quinn noticed right away, so she hurriedly continued, "I really don't have any bad intentions. That's why I came to explain to you immediately today. I don't wish for any misunderstandings between you and Alec because of me.""You're overthinking it. Something so trivial won't cause any misunderstandings between us," Jenny replied humorlessly.Hearing that, Quinn breathed a sigh of relief. "Really? That's great. I'm so relieved.""Well, now that you're done explaining, you can leave now." There was nothing more for them to talk about. Quinn's presence there would only delay Jenny from attending to her patients.With that, Quinn nodded. She got up and made to leave.She'd barely taken two steps before Jenny spoke up. "Th
