Christopher had no idea about Jenny and Alec's conversation. He walked out of the hospital dejectedly. When he got back to his car, he called his grandfather. "I've lost my chance, Grandpa." He told him about Alec and Jenny getting together, emphasizing that they had only gotten together yesterday and were in the honeymoon phase.Harvey Spade sighed and said, "Are you planning to give up this quickly?""What else am I going to do?" Christopher was prepared to buy a ticket to Bardoff City. He didn't want to stay in Parrington any longer.Harvey scolded him on the other end. "You're giving up because of one obstacle? What does it matter if she has a boyfriend? Don't you know how to win her over? The Fausts are only powerful in Parrington, but can they compare to us? Alec doesn't hold a candle to you. You're even more powerful than he is. What's there to worry about?"Christopher came to his senses. "That can't be a great idea." He'd become the other lover. How would he dare to show h
Christopher was speechless. Was Alec prepared to attack him because he knew that he was here to steal Jenny away from him? What a bold man! Didn't he know who Christopher was?Christopher got down the car. He wanted to see for himself what Alec was about to do.Alec was shocked to see him. He frowned, but before he could say anything, Christopher spoke first. "What are you going to do to me, Alec? Do you dare to attack me?""Why are you following us?" Alec asked.Christopher felt a little guilty, but he quickly recovered. "What do you mean? I wanted to go to this restaurant. What, are you the only people who can come here?" Although he was determined to steal Jenny away, he was at a loss for what to do.Alec glanced at him and gestured for Vincent to take his men away. He led Jenny to the restaurant, ignoring Christopher's presence.Christopher followed them quickly and walked beside Jenny with a smile. "Let's eat together, Jenny. I don't have a friend in Parrington. You're not g
Christopher drank his coffee, feeling like he was about to be exposed."We're not going to keep things to ourselves. Why don't you tell us what your motives are? I'd help you if I could." She had agreed to eat with him so she could ask him about it.A smile tugged at Christopher's lips. She'd definitely be able to help if she agreed to marry him. The coffee was running out, so he had to put it down. He met Jenny's gaze and said, "I was joking, really. You got together with Alex and not me, after all. I was just angry. I only have one motive: to make you my girlfriend. Even better, to have you marry me. I would definitely be a better choice than Alec."Alec was instantly upset. What did Christopher mean? Why did he have to drag him into this?"Ignore him, Jenny. He definitely has an ulterior motive." Alec regretted taking her there. He should have brought Jenny home, and they wouldn't have run into this psychopath.Christopher was unwilling to tell the truth. Jenny didn't ask him a
Christopher was conflicted when he heard their conversation, and they were ignoring him. Was he the villain now? Besides, Alec had great acting skills. He couldn't compare to his performance.They ate their food silently. Alec sometimes put more food on Jenny's plate, and they'd talk in hushed tones. Christopher suddenly felt that he shouldn't have come. Why did he want to torture himself?When the meal was finally over, Christopher didn't bother Jenny anymore and chose to leave. Whether or not they would see him again was a mystery.Once he was further away, Jenny said to Alec, "What do you think he wants from me?" She couldn't understand it at all. She was born and raised in a tiny village. What was Christopher plotting?Alec didn't understand either, but he didn't think it was a good thing. "I'll get someone to spy on him and learn his real motive.""Alright. I'll do my part, too." Jenny retracted her gaze and looked at Alec playfully. "Why did you get angry so easily? You're n
Jenny sat on the sofa and looked at Felicity. "Do I have to tell you about my business with him?""Don't get too cocky, Jenny! Mr. Faust will be mine!" Felicity yelled. She was panicking.Jenny sneered and stood up, going toward Felicity. "Why don't you spend your time and efforts on the company instead?""I…I do. I go to work every day." Felicity was covering up for herself, but she felt guilty. She didn't dare to look Jenny in the eye."Yes, you go to work." Jenny smiled, but it wasn't sincere. "To play games on your phone all day.""Nonsense. I don't do that!" Felicity lied, refusing to admit it.Jenny was speechless. She showed Felicity the surveillance footage that Jade had sent her. "Don't you? Well, what is this, then? Hasn't anyone told you that there are cameras in the office?"Felicity was stunned. She, indeed, hadn't thought of it. "Why…why didn't anyone tell me?" she grumbled."So what if they did? Would you just go somewhere with no cameras and continue playing on
"The company provides accommodations for the employees. You can move in there tomorrow. That way, you won't be late." This was Jenny's ultimate goal. Ever since Felicity moved in, Jenny was less eager to return home. Alec had come to cook just once and then had brought her out to eat every time afterward.It was alright for a few days, but it couldn't be a long-term solution.Felicity refused at once. "A dormitory? Never!"Perry Residences wasn't some sort of luxury resort, but it was still in an affluent area. She was used to this place. She didn't want to go to a measly dorm. Besides, if she stayed there, she would no longer have the chance to see Alec. She'd never have a shot."Never? Alright. You can pack up and go back to Orchid Village." Jenny couldn't be bothered to keep arguing. She turned to go to her room."Jenny!" Felicity was so mad that she stomped her foot.Jenny didn't even look her way and closed her door shut. Jenny sighed, ignoring Felicity. She only gave Felici
Jenny didn't think she'd see such a scene when she walked out. She was worried that Felicity had run away; it would be hard to explain to her uncle if that happened. But now she was kind of enjoying it."Hear me out, Jenny." Alec didn't care about whether he would hurt Felicity and shoved her away. He went up to Jenny quickly, wishing he could just get rid of Felicity. "It's not what you think. I have no feelings for her at all. She threw herself at me."Jenny said nothing. She glared at Felicity sprawling on the floor. "What are you doing? Aren't you embarrassed enough?"Felicity got up, biting her lip. "Alec, I know you're just afraid that Jenny will take things the wrong way. You like me, don't you?"Alec's face darkened. His gaze was terrifying. "You only have yourself to blame for spouting nonsense.""Alec…aargh!" Before she could say anything else, Alec lifted her and slammed her against the glare. Alec's glare was as sharp as a knife. "You don't want to live anymore, do y
Jenny felt the need to clarify something with Felicity. "Do you perhaps have a twisted perception of yourself? Do you think Alec would fall in love with you if I were out of the picture?"Where did her narcissism come from? All the rich and beautiful girls in Parrington couldn't catch Alec's eye. Why would he be infatuated with Felicity? Did she think she was a goddess?"How would you know?" Felicity refused to admit that she lacked charisma.Jenny decided not to argue with her. There was no point gobbling with turkeys. "Move to the dorms tomorrow. I don't want to see you when I come home." Jenny entered her bedroom and slammed the door shut. Felicity jumped out of her skin and cried pitifully. She whipped out her phone and called her mother. "Mom, they're all picking on me…"…In La Vie Jen Rose, Jenny came early in the morning to try on the altered clothes. She smiled once she put them on."It's good. Much better than before." At least it would work on different body types no
