To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 551

Chapter 551 Seem to be Really Close

Neither Jenny nor Alec spoke a word during the ride, and the atmosphere around them remain as tense as a

tightrope.

"When are you going back to Parrington?" Alec finally asked, breaking the ice.

"Tomorrow.''

Alec nodded, saying nothing else.

"What about you? When will you go back?"

Alec gave it some thought. He was nearly done with his business here in Bardoff City. He could always visit Dr.

Watkins to continue their sessions whenever he was free. "Tomorrow, with you,” he replied.

Jenny was surprised. Wasn't Alec busy dealing with the Glasses right now?" no.velxo Are you sure? What about the

Glasses..."

Hearing that she was concerned about him made him feel much better. "I can handle them. It's not like they can do

anything to stop me from going back to Parrington.’

In truth, the Glasses weren't seriously concerned by Alec's presence. Even their power plays were done just to

scare Alec into stopping his plans.

They never expected him to face it head-on, though.

"Oh.J'm leaving with Graham Walter, so I can't leave with you."

Graham had already set a private plane for both of them. Best to let Alec know right now.

"That's alright. I'll be right behind you guys." Alec shrugged. He wasn't worried. They’d see each other again in

Parrington.

As the drive continued on, Alec peeked at Jenny from the corner of his eye. "What...happened to you?"

"Oh, now you're interested?" Jenny shot back.

"Yes. If there's any way I can help, I will." Alec smiled awkwardly. It was too late now,no.velxo but he couldn't just

not ask.

Jenny didn't bother sugarcoating it. "Rowena sent the assassin, most likely.

I haven't found any evidence yet, though."

"Hm." Alec nodded, not surprised either. Only Rowena and Jolene would think of hurting Jenny to that extent.

Their drive soon came to an end. Before Alec stepped out, he said, "It's not safe for you now. Let me have some of

my men look out for you."

He couldn't be by her side, protecting her 24/7, yet he still worried about her, so having his bodyguards watch out

for her was his best option.

Jenny smiled. "No need."

"You don't have to deal with this alone, Jenny. I know you can fight well, but there are many people in the city who

could be your match. I'm sure I'll even find mine here." Alec still remembered being attacked by Graham's man. He

hadn't been able to retaliate whatsoever.

Seeing how adamant he was, Jenny revealed, "James has already placed some men in my vicinity to watch out for

me. They're pretty skilled, so I don't need anyone else."

Jenny had tested them herself. no.velxo Sure, none of them could defeat her singlehandedly, but as a group, they

were more formidable than most. Any more unnecessary manpower spent on her would only be a waste.

Alec knew it was only natural for James to do this for Jenny, but he still worried about their relationship.

"You two...seem to be really close, huh?" he bit out.
