Chapter 1138 A Couple of Lovebirds
Jenny looked at Alec, who was driving the car. ’Aren’t you going to the company?1' "I am."
He’d just arrived, and a mountain of work was waiting for him in the office. However, he
wanted to accompany Jenny for a while longer, so he was not going there yet.
Jenny read his mind and said, "We have lots of time, Alec. We don't have to be together all
the time. Do you know what I mean?"
If Alec left his work to see her like this in the future, Jenny would start thinking she was
affecting him.
"I know. Don't worry. I'll handle the things in the company." Alec nodded with a smile. "I'll
just send you back."
"Take me to the shopping mall. I invited Stephanie out," Jenny said quickly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlec nodded. ’Okay."
They drove toward the mall. Alec asked, "Is Stephanie with Leonard yet?"
"Probably not. She'd tell me if they were." She and Stephanie had contacted each other
these few days, and Stephanie hadn't told her anything about Leonard at all. Hence, Jenny
guessed that they were not together yet.
Alec seemed to sigh in relief when he heard that.
Jenny glanced at him and asked, "You don't think Paul still has a chance, do you?’
"As long as she's not with other men, of course he does." It didn't matter if they thought it
was a small possibility. What mattered was what Paul thought.
Jenny leaned her head against the window. She couldn't be bothered to say much else.
"Whatever. I don't think there's any hope for him. It's best if he faces reality soon. Besides,
isn't Melanie nice? She's such a nice girl, yet he doesn't know how to cherish her," Jenny
scoffed.
Alec didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. "You seem to have double standards, Jenny.’
Jenny didn't think there was anything wrong with Gilbert not liking Marigold, but she
thought that Paul was an ass for not liking Melanie.
"Of course. Paul cant compare to my brother.’ Jenny felt a little guilty, but she admitted it
anyway.
Paul wasn't her friend. In fact, because of the whole incident with Stephanie, she didn't
like him at all. Hence, she'd want to help her brother.
Alec didn't mean to blame her. He smiled. "Of course. They cant compare."
The car swiftly arrived at the mall entrance. Stephanie happened to be getting down from
a cab, as well. When she saw them, she ran up to greet them. "Jenny! Mr. Faust!
Congratulations on your win, Mr. Faust," Stephanie teased. Alec had certainly put a lot of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeffort into pursuing Jenny. But Stephanie thought that this was all his fault. He didn't
cherish her before.
Alec thanked her but showed no sign of following them. "You can go shopping together.
Put it on my tab."
"You're so generous, Mr. Faust!" Stephanie clapped her hands. Alec was rich enough to
afford to say things like that.
When Alec was about to leave, Jenny said, 'Be careful."
"Alright. Call me when you're done shopping. I'll come and fetch you." He drove off,
quickly disappearing from sight.
Jenny didn't retract her gaze until the car was completely gone from sight. Stephanie
snapped her fingers in front of her face. "Hello? Earth to Jenny."
Jenny came back to her senses and glared at her. "What are you doing?'
"The honeymoon phase is really something. You two are such a couple of lovebirds,"
Stephanie teased. She suddenly felt the urge to start dating.
