To their surprise, however, no one did anything. Nothing happened to them all the way home. It made Alec wonder if he had been overly cautious.

When Gilbert was busy in the kitchen, Alec received a call from Vincent. Despite the report he received, he was still anxious. After hanging up, he returned to the living room and shook his head at Jenny.

Jenny breathed a sigh of relief. A lot had happened recently, and she really didn't want anything bad to happen again.

"Let me help you." Jenny walked into the kitchen and helped Gilbert make dinner.

In the living room, Alec and Zack, who were not very familiar with each other, were left alone. Although Zack was not as hostile toward Alec as Gilbert, he wasn't very nice to him, either. He gave Alec a look and said, "There's no point pretending to be courteous. Jenny isn't superficial."

"Well, you're right." Alec didn't want to argue with him. After all, he had nothing against Zack. Plus, he was Jenny's brother, so Alec would be stupid to

    When Jenny came out of the kitchen, she spotted Zack and Alec engaged in a conversation, and she could barely believe her eyes. She recalled how loudly Zack had cursed Alec when she divorced him. How did they become friends so quickly?"Zack," Jenny called. "What are you talking about?"As if he had been caught doing something wrong, Zack quickly sat up straight and said seriously, "Nothing. Just small talk."Feeling guilty, he didn't dare to look Jenny in the eyes. It was all Alec's fault for making such a generous offer. On top of that, Alec didn't ask anything from him, so the opportunity was like a treasure falling from the sky.Jenny found his behavior suspicious, and she clearly did not believe him.Just as she was about to question him, Alec approached her. "Is the food ready? Do you need my help?""No, you're our guest, so just sit there and wait for dinner to be served," Jenny replied.Alec didn't argue with her. Truth be told, he didn't feel like helping Gilbert. "Are

    Jenny was the calmest among them. She continued eating as if she couldn't hear what they were saying. After she was done with her food, she took Gilbert's plate and filled his plate with food, saying, "This food is amazing."Gilbert received the plate Jenny handed to him, understanding what she was trying to say.Alec stared at Jenny, waiting for her to refill his plate too. To his disappointment, Jenny did not. Nevertheless, he quickly got over it. After all, Gilbert and Jenny were siblings. It was only natural for her to do that.Although Gilbert and Alec stopped squabbling, dinner wasn't exactly harmonious.Once dinner was over, Alec couldn't find another excuse to stay. "Are you going back to Perry Residence? I can give you a ride."Jenny shook her head. "No, you go back first.""Okay." Alec nodded, then he left Gilbert's house.After he left, Jenny turned to Gilbert and frowned. "You don't need to talk to him like that.""Jenny, I'm just worried that you—""He is my ex-hu

    Alec showed her his injured arm, saying, "My grandfather is there. I don't want to worry him."When he said that, Jenny felt worse. "Hey, you don't need to move out...""It's okay. I'm fine staying in Faust Mansion, though it's a little far away from work." Alec smiled at her, not wanting to make her feel bad. Aside from not wanting to worry Old Mr. Faust, there was another reason why he didn't return to Faust Mansion.When they went grocery shopping, he kept feeling as if someone was staring at them. Although nothing had happened, he was still worried, so he decided to stay in Perry Residence. That way, he could be there as soon as possible if anything happened, but of course, he wouldn't tell Jenny that.Checking the time, Jenny realized that it was almost 10.00 pm. Seeing that Vincent hadn't arrived, she said, "You can't just wait here. You can wait at my place first.""Won't it...be troublesome?" Alec hesitated. Although he was thrilled, her invitation made him nervous."No

  • To Be Yours Again   Chapter 157 Who?

    Jenny grew up in Orchid Village. She had grown up there for as long as she could remember, and everything there was familiar to her.As a child, she started to learn various skills. However, she didn't learn them from school but from the teachers in the village. She always thought that her teachers were amazing as they knew everything.Back then, she didn't think it was strange. She thought children in other villages all grew up the same way.She eventually matured into an adult, studied in Parrington, earned her master's and doctorate degrees, and married Alec. The more she learned, the more Orchid Village seemed off to her.Every teacher in the village who taught her was a master of their craft. For example, Mr. Birkett was a famous painter. However, he stayed in that village just to be her teacher. There had to be a reason, but Jenny didn't know why.She had asked her grandfather before but didn't get an answer. All he told her was not to think too much, and she would know the

    Alec was worrying too much, for nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Jenny received a call from Mr. Chapman informing her that the man who had knocked her out had been caught. The interrogation had already begun, and he asked if she wanted to drop by.Jenny immediately agreed to go. After getting ready, she headed out to the police station. When she opened the door, Alec opened the door to his apartment at the same time, as if he had sensed that she was going out."Good morning," Alec said. "Good morning," she greeted in return.After closing their doors, they headed to the elevator together. Jenny broke the silence, saying, "Mr. Chapman said that the culprit has been arrested, so I'm going to the police station.""Okay, take care." Alec couldn't help smiling, sensing that his relationship with Jenny was improving.He didn't follow her to the police station because he had received an unexpected call the night before, so he had to attend to someone else that day

    Jonathan was stunned. He thought that Jenny would only ask him about the person behind his actions like Mr. Chapman had done. Her question caught him by surprise."Since you're so skilled, I believe the person who taught you must be very skilled too. Perhaps I know them?" Jenny grinned at him as if she was talking to an old friend instead of a foe who had knocked her unconscious. At the mention of his teacher, Jonathan lowered his head, feeling extremely guilty."Do they know what you did?" Jenny asked.As soon as he heard her, his expression changed drastically. He glared at her viciously, shouting, "I did this of my own volition. It has nothing to do with my teacher!""Nothing to do with your teacher?" His statement was a joke in Jenny's ears. "A teacher and their student are one. A teacher's honor lies in their students. Of course, your teacher would feel humiliated if you do bad things."Jonathan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He knew that she was speaking the tru

    When Alec returned to Faust Mansion from the company at 8.00 pm, he spotted Yvonne standing outside."What are you doing here?" he asked as he got out of the car and approached her. His feelings were rather complicated. He could guess why she was there. After all, everyone in Parrington knew what was happening to the Dickmans. There was only one reason Yvonne would come to him now.A little embarrassed, Yvonne cast her bloodshot eyes upon him. "Alec, can you help my family just this once?""Let's go in to talk." Alec didn't agree, nor did he refuse. Yvonne didn't move from her spot. "I won't go in. I came today to hear your answer."Hearing that, Alec didn't insist. After staring at her for a long time, he finally said, "I'm sorry, Yvonne. I can't help you.""Alec, if you don't help my family, my dad will make me marry into the Blooms.

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic. After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned toward Marigold. "I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much." "It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning." Marigold didn't want to talk about it. She was afraid that Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert's plan would be ruined. Lottie smiled. "That's true. The past is the past. You're such a nice person. You'll definitely be able to find someone better suited for you in the future." Marigold pursed her lips. Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly turned to Marigold and said, "Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days' time. If you have the time, you're more than welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
