When Jenny and Gilbert arrived back home from their shopping trip, they found Zack looking angry and flustered. Concerned, Jenny approached him and asked what was wrong. Zack, seeming to snap out of his anger, glared at Justin before storming off to the kitchen with Gilbert, without answering her. Puzzled, Jenny turned to Justin and asked him what had happened."He was playing a game earlier, but he wasn't very good at it, so I teased him a little. He's probably upset about it," Justin replied, looking apologetic.Jenny couldn't help but laugh at the situation, patting Justin's head to comfort him. "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. He just needs to practice more." After reassuring Justin, Jenny made her way to the kitchen with a smile. "Zack, even Justin can see that your skills suck. Why don't you put in a little effort and improve your skills?" she suggested."I don't see the point in wasting time on games," Zack grumbled, clearly still annoyed. "And why are these country kids be
Gilbert's back tensed up when he heard Zach's words. He looked at him in disbelief and asked, "Zach, what are you trying to say?" He couldn't believe that Zach might know about his secret. He had been trying to keep it hidden from everyone, even Jenny, so how could Zach possibly know? Gilbert's heart was pounding; he didn't know how to react. Should he admit the truth or deny it?Zach noticed Gilbert's anxious expression and worried he might be right. He decided to drop the topic and said, "It was just a thought. Nothing important." He didn't want to ruin everything by bringing up something that could potentially harm the relationship between the three of them.Gilbert continued cooking and replied with a simple "Oh."He was relieved that Zach didn't press the issue further. He thought Zach might have guessed his secret but chose not to expose it. It showed that he still cared about their brotherhood. …The atmosphere during the meal was unpleasant, and Jenny couldn't help bu
Thinking about it, Alec dialed Vincent's number. "Keep an eye on the Blooms. I want to know everything they do, especially Sam."After speaking, Alec hung up, rubbing his forehead in exhaustion. However, there were still piles of files in front of him, and he couldn't go back to rest immediately, so he buried himself in work.The next morning, Jenny woke up feeling energized. After making arrangements for Justin and Lilian, she went to the hospital to work. In light of her recent experience with the earthquake, the hospital made it mandatory for her to take a few days off. Even though she felt she didn't need it, the hospital insisted on it.Having left work early, Jenny had nowhere to go. Just then, Stephanie called her. "Jenny, are you okay?" she asked. Her tone was rather casual, and she didn't sound concerned.Feigning anger, Jenny replied, "Luckily, I'm fine. If something had happened to me, do you think calling me after so long would help?"Stephanie was a little embarrass
"Yes! I care about it very much," Stephanie admitted, looking him in the eye. Paul frowned in annoyance. "Apart from defining our relationship, I can give you anything you want.""I don't want anything else. I just want a public relationship. Is that so difficult?" Stephanie's eyes began to tear. She just wanted them to date like any normal couple, why was it so difficult?"As my woman, these are the things you have to bear," Paul said stoically, his words bearing a tone of displeasure.Disappointed with his response, Stephanie shook her head. "Sorry, I don't want to be your woman anymore."She had been naive for thinking that nothing mattered as long as two people liked each other. However, after being with Paul, she realized she couldn't do it. She cared a lot about making a relationship public. "Take back what you just said, and I'll pretend I didn't hear anything," Paul said, his face a frightening mask of gloom. Then, his hands moved from her hand to her neck, as if he w
How to address Alec really stumped Jenny. She thought of several names in her mind, but none of them seemed appropriate."I think Mr. Faust is the best," Jenny said with a smile. She was unable to think of anything better.Alec's face fell. Jenny had spent so much time thinking that he thought she would come up with a good name.Seeing that he was getting angry, Jenny quickly said, "I'll just call you by your name."Although he was still unsatisfied, Alec accepted it. Soon, the car pulled into the restaurant Yvonne had invited Jenny to. They got out of the car and walked inside together. A waiter led them to a private room, opening the door to reveal Yvonne and Sam sitting inside.Yvonne wasn't surprised to see Alec. "Alec, I knew you would accompany Miss Walter here."As she spoke, she gestured for the two to sit down. Jenny noticed that there were four sets of tableware on the table. Yvonne wasn't lying; she really had guessed that Alec would come.Once they settled on their
Jenny didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the attention. "Since you've already worded it this way, Mr. Bloom, I can't refuse."It was expected that Jenny wouldn't give Yvonne the time of day, but she didn't want to antagonize the Blooms just yet. At the very least, she couldn't be downright rude. Hence, she said she would not refuse Sam."So, you're going to forgive Yvonne?" Sam was surprised that Jenny was such a nice person."Of course." Jenny nodded.Sam was happy to have gotten her confirmation. He glanced at Alec. "And Mr. Faust?""Whatever Jenny says." He appeared to others as if he'd listen to anything Jenny said. Someone in the dark would think that they were close.Sam smiled happily. He didn't want to be at war with Alec if he could help it. He was delighted with how things worked out. He raised his glass and said to Alec and Jenny, "I'm here to thank both of you. If there's anything that the Blooms can help out with, I'll do it fully."Jenny smiled, thinking that S
When Jenny returned to the private room, Yvonne was already cradled in Sam's arms. The moment she appeared, she could feel his glare on her.She smiled and walked over serenely. "What's wrong, Ms. Dickman?""Jenny, I know I've done you wrong before, but I've already apologized. You said you've forgiven me. So why…" she sobbed, letting her red face be on display.Sam's mood was ruined. Her gaze on Jenny was almost venomous.Jenny burst into laughter. "Surely you're not going to say that I hit you?""I can't do anything if you won't admit it. There are no surveillance cameras in the washroom. I have no proof." Yvonne looked extremely pitiful.Sam held her tightly and glared at Jenny coldly. "I thought you were someone who kept their promises. I didn't expect you to slap her once I turned my back. You've truly opened my eyes today. Don't you think it's despicable to go back on your words?"Jenny didn't have much of a reaction to Sam's words. On the other hand, Alec looked furious.
Alec took Jenny seriously and no longer stood between her and Yvonne. But Yvonne didn't act out anymore, not daring to take another step.She knew that Jenny was true to her words. If she rushed over, Jenny wouldn't hesitate to smack her again.She cried pitifully. This time, her tears were real. She turned and rushed into Sam's arms. "Sam, it hurts…"Sam looked at her flushed face, feeling his heart ache. He glared at Jenny. "Do you think you're invincible, Jenny Walter? The Blooms are nothing to be looked down upon!""You're right, Sam. But she's the one who said that I hit her first. How could I admit to something I haven't done? Well, I can, now. I admit that I hit her." Jenny threw her hands into the air, implying she was forced into doing it."Jenny Walter!" Sam roared. But that was all he could do. With Alec around, he couldn't do anything to her.Jenny shrugged, looking nonchalant. "I understand that you like her, Sam. But we need to take the rose-tinted glasses off. You
