Chapter 838 How Many Times?!
Jenny was getting really fed up with the two men. “If an argument is what you want, then I’m leaving.”
She couldn’t stop them, nor could she bear another second of their testosterone-filled contest. Leaving was the best option.
Hearing that, both men immediately shut up
Only then did Jenny sigh, glad to see they hadn’t lost their mind.
The food Evan ordered arrived, making Jenny wait an hour or so before she could finally be driven back to the hospital.
Even before she could go back to work, the two men got into another argument about who should send her back. It took a good ten minutes before either of them realized
Jenny was gone, having long taken a cab.
Alec laughed to himself, imagining how impatient Jenny must’ve looked.
Evan didn’t understand the man now. “Can’t you see how Jenny has no interest in you? I’d stop bothering her if I were you?
“Really? I don’t see it.” Alec shrugged. He actually felt like Evan was the object of
Jenny’s dislike. Otherwise, she’d have insisted on Evan sending her back just now.
“Alec Faust!” Evan yelled, angry now. “How many goddamned times do you plan to hurt Jenny’s feelings?!’
Alec instantly grew solemn. He said seriously, “I have been serious about her since before you returned to the country, so what right do you have to accuse me? If you wanted what’s best for Jenny, Clarke, you’d let her make her own decision instead of wasting your time arguing with me.”
He didn’t want his time wasted on Evan anyway. He wasn’t the one interrupting his lunch with Jenny. Alec firmly believed that people fated to be together would eventually cross paths again.
Evan’s sore spot had been prodded. In truth, he didn’t have enough faith in himself to win Jenny over, and that was why he was worried to see her spending so much time with Alec. He knew Jenny didn’t have those feelings for him. Otherwise, they wouldn’t still be so polite with one another. Nor was he on par with her adoptive brothers or even Alec. So, of course, Evan panicked.
Alec didn’t waste another minute on the man. He left with his own car by the restaurant, leaving Evan with his thoughts.
From that day on, Jenny turned down every single lunch and dinner date from both Alec and Evan, opting to dine alone rather than risk the two men going head to head again.
She never expected to find James in a cafe she chose for lunch, seemingly on a date…
James hadn’t spotted her. He was focused on the woman in front of him instead.
“What do you think of this place, Mr. Windsor?” she cooed. She appeared modest but charming, looking quite compatible with James.
The man merely huffed. “It’s meh.”
Clearly not expecting such a response, the woman’s expression fell. She had chosen that place for their date, so was James criticizing the restaurant itself or her taste?
