Chapter 1189 Are You Using Me?

Jenny was ready to leave, but she was not leaving alone. Looking at Pete, she requested,

’Now, please send me home." "Are you asking me to send you home?" He furrowed his

brows, displeased at her orders.

She smiled and added, "Eric Dafoe's men are watching me nearby. They will make a move

once I walk out alone. I’m not scared of them, but I don't like wasting my time warding

them off. I need to get home as soon as possible to check on my dad. Got it?"

Pete, who was initially confused, finally understood the situation. 'Are you using me?"

"How can you say that? As partners, you should ensure my safety. Don't you think so?"

She lifted a brow at him, feeling completely justified.

Pete was unhappy but had to follow her instructions. After all, the last thing he wanted

was to see Jenny harmed. They left the lounge and got into his sports car.

Eric's men were caught by surprise. "That...that woman is with Mr. Pete. Do we still make a

move?"

"Of course not, stupid! We'd be damned if we injure Mr. Pete." The assassination plan was

thwarted.

When Pete drove Jenny to the villa, they found Eric's men had been taken down. Mr. Ortiz

was busy cleaning up at the entrance. When he saw her, he hurried over. "Miss Walter."

"Hey. Is my dad okay?" she asked.

"Mr. Walter is fine. Thankfully you arranged for adequate security, and Mr. Faust came just

in time," he answered.

"Mr. Faust?" A puzzled expression appeared on her face. The next moment, they saw Alec

emerging from the villa. She was taken aback by his presence. "Why are you here?"

"I'm worried for you. That's why." He had been worried for her ever since he heard that

Jenny was challenging the Dafoes. After finishing his work in Faust Group, he rushed to

Bayside City without wasting time.

Feeling touched, she walked to him. "Thank you, but I can handle this on my own."

Pete suddenly interrupted their conversation with dissatisfaction. "Hey! Won't you invite

me for tea since I sent you home?"

"Mr. Dafoe, you should skip tea and hurry home to think over my proposal.’ Jenny was in

no mood to entertain him. With that, she went into the living room with Alec, leaving Pete

speechless at the door. However, he didn't protest further and left in his car very soon.

He had been hesitating about the collaboration with Jenny, but he came to a decision after

meeting Alec Faust. With the support of the Fausts and the Walters, he stood a higher

chance of success-it would be a rare opportunity that he wouldn't want to miss.

In the living room, Jenny was pulled into a hug by Alec, who sounded a little jealous. 'Look

at you, going out with other men after I left you alone for a bit! Jenny, you're making me

upset."

"What other men? That's Eric Dafoe's son! I'm discussing working together with him." She

rolled her eyes at him. She wondered, "Can't he see that I am uninterested in Pete Dafoe?"

Her words failed to assuage him. "I don't care. I just don't like seeing you surrounded by

men. I'm angry now, so you'd better know what to do."

Dumbfounded and helpless, she coaxed him, "Alec, don't fool around." It didn't work on

him because he was anticipating a sincere act of ’apology.’

She had no choice but to give him a peck on the lips. ’Are you happy now?"

"Not really." Then, he hugged her tighter and bit her lips as his kiss deepened.
