To Be Yours Again Chapter 32 Drowning
"Y… yes," Alec replied with great difficulty. He felt as if the darkness would soon drown him, and Jenny's hand was the only thing keeping him afloat."My phone is out of battery. Where's yours?" she asked as she held on to him. She felt that his trembling was growing worse. If this persisted, he would pass out in the elevator. "I'm going to search for it myself if you say nothing." She began feeling around with her hands.She had no intentions besides calling the property manager, but then, in the darkness, her hands fumbled and groped. Her slender fingers touched Alec's firm chest, and further down were his prominent abdominal muscles. He had a good figure, she thought."Where are you touching?" Alec said, somehow managing to sound cold through his trembling voice.Jenny took her hand away quickly and laughed dryly. "I don't know where your phone is."The man scoffed, pushing down the revulsion in his chest. He took his phone out of his wallet. "I don't have the manager's number

"Dr. Walter!" Alec gnashed his teeth.Jenny looked nonchalant. She really wished to see him panic, but as a doctor, she couldn't do that to a patient.Yes, a patient. In her eyes, Alec was a patient.No one would pass out because they were afraid of the dark unless they had severe psychological issues or had experienced something that would make them react negatively to the dark."I was joking." Jenny put the phone back and said righteously, "Although I don't like you, I'm not the type to rub salt in someone's wound."Alec cradled the phone in his hands and looked at her. "You've admitted that you don't like me.""Yeah. There's nothing much to admit." In the darkness, with no one around, they began to talk."Why?" Alec asked. "I don't remember hurting you.""You've hurt me tons of times." Jenny shot him a look. He wouldn't be reacting this way if he knew that it was his ex-wife in the elevator with him.Alec frowned. He stared at Jenny. "Such as?""Such as the Walkers." Jenny

"Tell me." Alec's interest was piqued. Someone was actually giving him a suggestion. This was new to him."I don't think you're just afraid of the dark. There might be a few underlying issues. You should see a therapist," she said.It wasn't a big problem, but neither was it insignificant. With someone as stressed as Alec, having something bottled up in his heart would make it worse.She had spoken with good intentions, but her words made his expression darken instantly. He emanated an aura that could make anyone shiver. She said exasperatedly, "It's just a condition, Mr. Faust. You don't have to be so defensive.""That's enough!" Alec roared. He stared at Jenny like she was his enemy. "You don't have to worry about my problems." He turned and slammed his door shut."This guy…" Jenny was speechless and infuriated.Back at home, Jenny made herself some instant noodles. She was still fuming. Her good intentions had been thrown in her face. As she grumbled to herself, the doorbell r

The next day at Parrington Hospital, Jenny received a phone call from Zack right after completing a surgery."You're being investigated," he said. "They're pretty good. You can't hide your whereabouts in the country for much longer."Jenny was intrigued. "It's okay, Zack. So what if they find out about me? There are no skeletons in my closet.""I thought you didn't want Alec to find out," Zack said playfully.Jenny smiled nonchalantly. "I don't really care if he does. And if he doesn't ask, I won't bring it up." Based on Zack's words, she suspected that it was Alec who was investigating her. It was possible."Are you busy lately? You seem to have surgery to perform every day," Zack said. He wasn't in the country, so he wasn't caught up with Jenny."Yeah, but it's fine. It prevents me from overthinking."They chatted for a little while longer before saying their goodbyes. Jenny was about to carry on with her work, but someone knocked on her door.The person walked in quickly. Sh

They stared at each other. Jenny saw a flash of hatred in his eyes.She was sure that she hadn't done anything against him, much less anything that would invoke his wrath. What was the source of his rage? Was it Alec?In an instant, realization dawned on her."I'm not interested in Alec, either," she replied. "I don't know what grudges you two hold against each other, but I want no part of it.""That's a stretch. I'm only interested in you." Max went back to normal in the blink of an eye. His cheerful demeanor looked nothing like someone who would want to kill his own father."Well, I refuse," she said.Max wasn't angry. He stood, smiling. "It's okay. There is time, still. I believe that I will make you like me one day."Before waiting for Jenny to reply, he left the office.Jenny was speechless. What a day it was.She had another surgery scheduled for that afternoon. Right as she was about to prepare, Morgan rushed up to her."Dr. Walter, there's a patient in the emergency r
Last Updated : 2023-02-13To Be Yours Again Chapter 37 You Don't Have Good Taste
Jenny thought that the woman before her was strange. Her son was perfectly fine, but she insisted on getting him surgery. It was weird in every way.At this moment, a small warm hand pulled at her. Jenny turned to see that it was the teenager on the bed. She asked patiently, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?""I don't want to have surgery," he said softly, as if afraid that his mother would hear.Jenny's eyes darkened. There was something else afoot, but her phone rang before she could say anything else. It was a call from the operating room.She instantly felt a headache coming."Please do the other patient's surgery, Dr. Walter. I will handle this," the doctor said.Jenny looked at the patient's family, who were crowded around the door, and Joey, who was on the bed. "Don't worry. You don't need to have one," she assured him. "Just listen to this doctor, and he will treat you.""Okay." Joey nodded. He seemed relieved that he didn't need surgery.After telling the docto

Seeing that Alec was actually furious, Max dared not provoke him anymore. He was no match for Alec, but he wouldn't let this go just like that.Alone, he was no match for Alec, but he had the Pearsons. It could be a fair fight."What are you here for?" Alec stared at the red roses in his hands. They pierced his eyes.Max shrugged. He looked at the operating room. "I'm pursuing the the woman of my dreams, of course. What do you think?"The woman of his dreams? In just one night, Dr. Walter had become that person to him. "I've warned you to stay away from her." Alec gnashed his teeth. If not for the people around them, he would have punched Max in the face.Max rolled his eyes. "Aren't you being too controlling, Mr. Faust? Are you involved with Dr. Walter somehow?"As Faye listened to them, she felt her jealousy driving her insane.Max Pearson wanted to pursue Dr. Walter. And based on Alec's reaction, he also seemed to have feelings for her.Why was this happening? Why were two

"What's wrong?" A strong sense of unease washed over Jenny. Her heartbeat quickened."Something's happened to that boy from this afternoon." Morgan was anxious. "After you left, his mother insisted on switching hospitals. We had no choice but to agree. We thought it was just a mild concussion, so it wouldn't matter if they went to another hospital. But then the emergency center received a call saying that there was a patient in a private hospital with massive head bleeding. We asked about the patient and learned that it was the boy. His mother brought him to a private hospital for surgery!"Jenny's expression shifted. She asked hurriedly, "Where is he?""He's still on the way here. The paramedics in the ambulance say it's really serious and that we must be prepared. I'm here to get you," Morgan said.Jenny had no time to figure out what their underlying intention was. "Get the Blood Transfusion Unit to prepare blood bags and tell everyone to get ready," she ordered Morgan. "The mom

To Be Yours Again Chapter 1401 Gilbert and Marigold (76)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1400 Gilbert and Marigold (75)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1399 Gilbert and Marigold (74)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1398 Gilbert and Marigold (73)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1397 Gilbert and Marigold (72)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1395 Gilbert and Marigold (70)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1394 Gilbert and Marigold (69)
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
To Be Yours Again Chapter 1393 Gilbert and Marigold (68)
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
