Eventually, the crowd dispersed, leaving only Jenny and Alec standing in front of Old Mr. Faust. They looked at each other. Neither of them spoke.Old Mr. Faust was exasperated by the sight. He had created an opportunity for Alec, yet he was silent. Was he supposed to teach him how to speak to his ex-wife?He glared at Alec, then turned to Jenny with a smile. "Jenny, has Alec been good to you lately? Let me know if he treats you badly, and I'll deal with him for you."Jenny smiled awkwardly and shook her head. "Thank you for the offer, Grandpa, but Mr. Faust has never treated me badly. We're not that close, after all.""Why do you say that? Whatever happens, it's still fate that the two of you met. Alec was young and rash back then. He didn't know how to appreciate you. Look, he's regretting it now." Old Mr. Faust looked at Alec. If he weren't so afraid that someone else would get together with Jenny, he wouldn't have swallowed his pride just to say this.Regret?Jenny looked at Alec i

Jenny hadn't expected to see such an amusing scene after answering a call outside.She recognized the woman on the floor to be Yvonne's friend. Who was she planning to splash with the dirty water, then?Jenny could see the answer from the woman's terrified expression. Smiling, she walked up to her and looked down. "Do you need me to call someone for you?""No... No need!" The woman shook her head, unable to meet Jenny's eyes."Sure. Have it your way." Jenny shrugged and went into the stall.As soon as she closed the door, the woman stood up resentfully and got another bucket of dirty water. She wanted to take Jenny down with her.With this thought, she raised the bucket of water and tried to pour it over the door again.At the same time, Jenny opened the door.The bucket of water splashed onto the same person again, followed by a piercing scream.Jenny's expression was chilly. "How old are you?" she asked coldly. "This is the most childish trick I've seen yet. Do you really think I'm d

Max was drinking wine on the balcony. Unlike the others, he wasn't entertaining guests. He didn't care about all this. He had his own ways of improving the Pearson family.A figure strode onto the balcony. Max looked up to see who it was. When he did, he frowned, expression darkening."Max, are you interested in discussing an alliance?" Yvonne asked, beaming. Her lips were scarlet, her smile bright. Although she could not compare to Jenny's classic beauty, she had her own charm.In Parrington, Jenny wasn't the only one who received the attention of the masses. If everyone didn't already know that Yvonne was interested in Alec, she would have countless men pursuing her.Max drained his wine in one gulp. With a slightly playful expression, he asked, "Alliance? Do we have anything in common for an alliance?""Of course we do," Yvonne answered.She approached Max, the scent of her perfume suffusing the air and assaulting Max's nostrils. He became very discomfited.Max took a few ste

Stephanie fidgeted anxiously. After a beat, she said, "It's just that the situation between us is a little complicated. The point is, I can't explain it right now. Don't bother with it.""Are you sure he's not a scammer?" Jenny asked suspiciously."I'm sure of it." Stephanie nodded. Of that point, she was certain.Since Stephanie was so sure, Jenny felt bad about asking further. After all, these were Stephanie's private matters. She had to give her friend some time. "Alright. Just take care of yourself.""Of course." Stephanie nodded, but her heart ached.When it came to matters of the heart, she had no resistance at all. She'd already given it all up. The thing was, she still had no clue what she meant to him."Mr. Spade!"Suddenly, someone cried out further ahead. Jenny's focus was instantly drawn there, where she found an old man with snowy hair crumpled on the ground."What happened?" Alec asked, rushing over."Mr. Spade collapsed!" a man in a suit said. His expression was

Alec was now the biggest shareholder of Parrington Hospital, and he had already notified the hospital. So, when Jenny rushed to the hospital, nurses were already waiting at the entrance. Even the chairman was there, proving that the old man was not someone to be taken lightly.However, Jenny was in no mood to think of this. She got out of the ambulance and asked, "Is the operating room prepared?""Yes, it is," someone answered.She nodded in satisfaction and said to the paramedics on the ambulance, "Send him straight into the emergency ward. Prepare for surgery."Done speaking, she walked toward the operating room. When she walked past the chairman, he grabbed her hand and said, "How is it? Is it going to work?"Although he knew of Jenny's capabilities, the old man was just too important for him not to worry."Relax. I'll do my best." She didn't linger and went straight to the operating room, preparing for the surgery.At the same time, a young man held a glass of red wine in a
