Chapter 1061 That Was Good Enough for Him
Evan put on a troubled expression. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made you come home over
nothing."
"Evan, please don’t say that. I moved here to take care of you in the first place," Jenny
comforted him. As for Alec...well, someone else would take care of him.
Evan's heart was bursting with joy, but his emotion wasn’t reflected on his face. ’I was
asking Howard if I made the wrong decision in letting you move in. You have a life, and it's
unfair for you to waste your time on a useless man like me."
She seemed to disagree with him on that. ’Evan, you should never refer to yourself in that
way. You’re not useless! Yes, I moved in with you, but I still go to work every day. My life
hasn't changed. And Howard is the one who's taking care of you mostly." Although she

"Even so, moving in must have affected you in some way. That makes me feel bad." He
hung his head, looking contrite.
The more he blamed himself, the more upset she felt. "Evan, I would have been dead if it
were not for you. Helping you is nothing much."
"How about...you and Alec?" he finally blurted out. He muttered with a painful smile when
she sank into silence, "You would have been with him if it were not for me."
Of course, Jenny couldn't date Alec because she had chosen to move in and take care of
Evan. No man would be fine with his girlfriend being a live- in caregiver for another man.
Even if Alec didn't mind, Jenny would never allow that to happen.
She smiled, looking unbothered. "I'm not concerned about that for now. I only want you to
get better soon."
"Jenny..."
"Evan, that's enough. You need rest," she cut him off, but more so because she struggled
to answer his hypothetical questions. Without the kidnapping, Evan wouldn't have been
bound to a wheelchair, and she would have dated Alec. However, facing the unalterable
reality, she would rather plan for the future instead of wasting time on the "what-ifs'.
Unbeknownst to her, he was satisfied with her answer. One thing was for sure—she
wouldn't date Alec before Evan recovered.
That was good enough for Evan. He had been losing sleep over his worries that Jenny
would date Alec. If that happened, persuading her to go abroad with him would be more
difficult.
Jenny requested that he wait in the living room while she prepared the soup in the kitchen.
Staring at the soup in the pot, she was suddenly reminded of Alec. What would he be
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdoing at the moment? She assumed he would be working on his recovery and taking his
meals regularly.
Her worry was not without reason because she remembered him as a workaholic. He'd be
fine if someone was keeping an eye on him, but without supervision, he'd be skipping
meals. She decided to call him later and remind him to take care of himself.
At that time, she had no idea Vincent was forced to help Alec out of the hospital. When
she was preparing the soup for Evan, Alec had moved back to the villa next door, but he
didn't inform her because he knew she'd protest and be upset.
To avoid upsetting her, he moved back quietly in order to not alert her. Vincent was also at
the end of his wits-he had no authority to stop his boss from doing so, and he had no
choice but to take his orders.
