To Be Yours Again By Taylor

Chapter 81

Chapter 81 I Won’t Bother You, Mr. Faust

“Of course! It’s my pleasure to be friends with you, Miss Dickman.” Jenny smiled at her.

When the siblings were out of sight, the smile on Jenny’s face disappeared. Befuddled, Alec shook his head, asking, “You clearly don’t like her. Why did you agree to be her friend?”

“If I refused her, wouldn’t I seem petty?” Jenny asked. After casting him a glance, she got up and walked

out of the restaurant.

Alec stopped asking questions and trailed behind her silently. He couldn’t figure out what was going on between the two women.

“Where are you going?” he asked. “I’ll see you off.”

“I won’t bother you, Mr. Faust. Someone will pick me up.”

As soon as she said that, a white sports car pulled up in front of Jenny. Max appeared before them, and Alec’s expression turned ugly. He stared at him coldly.

“Did you get a new car?” Jenny asked in surprise as she remembered Max driving a red sports car. “Didn’t you tell me to be less flashy? Isn’t this better?” he asked, pointing at his new car, which happened to be a limited edition sports car.

Jenny was stumped. While white was certainly less flashy than red, the car was not. “Well, it’s alright, I guess,” she replied with a wry smile and dropped the topic.

Like a gentleman, Max opened the car door for her and gestured for her to enter. When she was about to get in, she turned to look at Alec. “By the way, Mr. Faust, although I appreciate your help in dealing with the Dickmans, I didn’t need it.”

Alec silently watched as Jenny and Max left. His brooding eyes made the people around him afraid to approach him.

As the car drove away, Jenny smirked as she watched the horrid expression on Alec’s face through the side mirror. Beating Steven up had lifted her spirits slightly, but seeing Alec upset had restored her good mood completely.

Did he think helping her deal with the Dickmans could make up for Faye’s mistakes? Alec was too naive if he really thought so.

“What are you thinking about?” Max could tell that she was in a good mood.

Jenny looked away from the window and turned to him, asking, “What do you want from me?”

On her way to the restaurant to meet Steven, she received a call from Max asking to meet up with her, which was why she requested him to pick her up.

“Hey, I saved your ass once. Why are you being so cold?” Max asked, revealing a pained expression. In Alec’s presence, Jenny would smile at Max, but she was ruthless to him when they were alone. It made. him wonder if she was just pretending to hate Alec.

Jenny disregarded his question, saying, “Well, even if you and Alec didn’t show up that day, I’d still be fine.”

“Well, even if that’s true, shouldn’t you be a little grateful that I came to help you immediately?” Max asked, pretending to be upset.

Jenny fell silent as that made sense. She was indebted to both Max and Alec in that sense. After a moment, she asked, “So, how do you want me to thank you?”

“Well, it’s not difficult. There’s going to be an event in a few days, and I’d like you to be my date for it,” Max answered as he pulled into the compound of Perry Residence. He watched Jenny, waiting for her answer.

“What event is that?” Jenny asked.

Max shook his head. With an air of mystery, he said, “It’s a secret for now. I’ll tell you when the time comes.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Jenny frowned.

“Don’t worry. I’m not trying to sell you.” Seeing her hesitate, he was afraid that she would refuse him.
