To Be Yours Again By Taylor

Chapter 104

Chapter 104 She Hates Me

Jenny and Gilbert talked on the phone for a long time. After discussing how to attack the Dickmans, they. ended the call.

In the blink of an eye, it was already 4.00 pm, and there were only two hours left before Jenny had to leave. for the birthday party at 6.00 pm. She rose from the sofa and headed to the closet, where she dressed herself.

The birthday party was held at Empire State Hotel, which was the most luxurious hotel in Parrington. Nonetheless, it was a small feat for the Fausts to book the entire hotel.

As the organizer of the party, Alec arrived at the hotel early to oversee the preparations. After all, it was his grandfather’s 70th birthday, so of course he had to help out.

“Please go and rest, sir. I’ll watch over the preparation,” Warren said, seeing him busy himself all day.

However, Alec didn’t leave. “Where’s Grandpa?”

“He’s resting upstairs. Do you want to meet him there?”

After a moment of thought, Alec nodded. “I’ll check on him. I’ll leave the preparations to you.”

“Sure, don’t worry about the preparations.”

Immediately, Alec left the hall and took the elevator upstairs to the room. In the room, Old Mr. Faust was enjoying a cup of tea leisurely. Alec entered, pushing the door open, and he turned to look in the direction of the sound.

“Are you done with the work downstairs?” he asked.

“Well, it’s almost done,” Alec replied. “Warren is overseeing the rest. I promise you’ll be proud of it.”

Alec didn’t understand why his grandfather was throwing such a big birthday party this time. In the past, it had always been a meal with a few of his family members.

Smiling and nodding, Old Mr. Faust said, “Well, don’t just stand there. Go and pick Jenny up.”

“Grandpa…” Alec was troubled.

Old Mr. Faust was immediately upset. He scolded Alec, saying, “You said you were willing to try, you brat. Be a little more proactive. Do you think Jenny will wait for you forever?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Alec sighed before he said, “Even if I’m willing to try, she won’t give me a chance.”

That caught his grandfather by surprise. He stared at Alec for a long time before saying, “Have you two met?”

“Yes.” Alec nodded.

“How did Jenny seem?”

After a moment of silence, Alec reluctantly admitted, She seems to hate me very much.”

Although they seemed to have resolved their misunderstandings last night, Alec knew that Jenny still didn’t like him. She was only less obvious about it.

Old Mr. Faust fell silent, his expression cloudy. If Jenny really hated his brat of a grandson, that would be a bad thing. He was about to speak again when he noticed a strange expression on his grandson’s face, which gave him a feeling that something was wrong.

“So you told me you’re willing to try because you’ve met Jenny? Do you regret the divorce now?” He wanted to laugh, thinking that Alec deserved it. However, considering that Alec was his grandson, he decided to keep his thoughts to himself to spare his pride.

Although Alec didn’t reply, his silence answered everything.

With a sigh, Old Mr. Faust asked, “You wouldn’t believe me when I told you that Jenny is a good girl. Don’t you regret it now?”

“Grandpa, do you know a lot about her?” Alec asked suddenly. He felt that his grandfather might not know much about Jenny. At least, he didn’t seem to be aware of her secret identity.

After a moment of thought, Old Mr. Faust replied, “I’m friends with her grandfather. Her family moved to the countryside in the past, so Jenny grew up there. But don’t you look down on Jenny because of this. Although she grew up in the countryside, she is every bit as good as these wealthy ladies in Parrington.”

He had rambled a little too much for fear Alec might look down on Jenny for growing up in a rural area. Little did he know that Alec couldn’t care less about that.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
