Chapter 875 You Have Me in Your Heart

News of Xavier's murder spread through Bardoff City like wildfire. Nearly everyone

strengthened their security systems to avoid something like that happening to them.

If someone had attacked the Fausts, it didn't just mean that those killers were arrogant. It

meant that the Fausts were defenseless. They were now the city's laughingstock.

Precisely because of that, Xavier’s memorial was not a large affair. Only close friends and

relatives came to visit, and he was then buried in the Fausts' graveyard. The Fausts

seemed to want it to die down as quickly as possible. They didn't even seem to want to

hunt down the attackers.

Everyone was curious to know what the Fausts' action meant. Someone as pompous as

Xavier had been killed. Were they going to take it lying down?

In Bardoff Hospital, Jenny completed her rounds and walked into Alec's ward. He had been

there for two to three days, but he could still not be discharged. After all, he was shot and

then thrown off a cliff. Although he had saved his own life by hanging on to the roots

under the cliff, he had gotten hurt in the process.

When she got in, Alec was on the phone. He was delegating work to one of his employees.

Jenny turned to leave, but Alec swiftly hung up and smiled at her. "So you came."

Jenny murmured in response and walked over. "To perform a check-up."

Although she was not the doctor in charge of him, she had a right to visit his ward as his

head was injured in the fall.

Alec did not move, letting her perform her duties on him.

After a while, Jenny said, "Lucky people are just built differently. There's nothing much

wrong with you. It's like the Heavens are looking after you."

She sounded upset when she said that, and Alec picked up on it. However, he didn't seem

to mind. "I already made all the necessary preparations to make sure I didn't die."

"And what does that have to do with me?" Jenny glared at him.

He smiled dryly. He knew that Jenny was angry. He hadn't told her about the plan, and he

hadn't considered the consequences. But the deed was already done. Now, he had to

figure out how to appease her instead of crying over spilled milk.

Alec chuckled dryly and said, "Jenny, let me treat you to lunch today."

"There's no need for that," Jenny refused.

"I know that you have me in your heart, Jenny. I heard about it from Paul. You went to the

turf club immediately to find me." Once Alec found out, he was certain of Jenny's feelings.

He couldn't let her go this time.

Jenny bit her lip. If she had known that Alec had gone prepared, she wouldn't have gone.

She looked at him, still feeling angry. "Who said I was there to look for you? Couldn't I just

be going there for the fun of it?"

"Fine. I guess." Alec didn't want to press the topic.

Jenny had a lot of questions she meant to ask. Before, Alec had just woken up, and his

body was still weak, so she was not in a hurry to ask him anything. But now that he had

recovered somewhat, she asked, "Why did you go? You knew that Luke had hidden

motives. I just can't think of why you would want to go."

Alec was silent.

"Forget it if you're gonna keep quiet." Jenny was about to leave.

"It's not that I don't want to tell you. I was afraid that if I did, you'd think I was despicable."

It was a murder, after all. Even though the killer was Evan, Alec was the true mastermind.

Jenny said nothing, but she pulled over a chair and sat next to him. Her intentions were

clear.
