Chapter 911 Are You Still in Contact with Her?

Sensing her rage, Alec burst out in laughter and handed Jenny a glass of cocktail. 'Try

this."

She accepted it and took a sip. Then, she complimented his skills, "It's nice. But the

alcohol isn't too strong. It tastes like juice instead."

"Yeah, it's not good to overdrink." He deliberately added only a little alcohol into her

cocktail so as to not affect her sleep.

Jenny looked amused but said nothing as she slowly sipped on the drink.

Alec made himself a cocktail and asked, "Has Walter Inc told you about the charity fund?"

His staff had visited Walter Inc on the matter, but he was unsure if Jenny was briefed on

the progress.

"Yes, they told me about it." She nodded.

"How's the girl's mother doing? She's able to undergo surgery without worries, right?" he

asked, but his only goal was to learn more about Jenny. Truth be told, he was not

interested in the others.

"Yes. We have scheduled the surgery, and I'll be her surgeon," she added.

He glanced at her and noticed no worried look, which showed that she was confident. He

said, "Well, the surgery will go well if you're on the case. You handled Faye Lawrence's

tough case excellently, so I believe in your capability."

"Speaking of Faye, are you still in contact with her?" she asked.

He paused before regretting bringing up Faye-he was digging his own grave.

Jenny, however, seemed to read his mind and chuckled. "Don't worry. I don't mean to

interrogate you. I was asking about her health."

Although the surgery was a success, there was a chance of relapse. Therefore, she

casually asked him about Faye's progress.

He let out a relieved sigh and answered, "I'd contact her once in a while. She's doing fine

studying abroad. She finds the environment more suitable for her." Even though he was

totally disappointed with Faye after all her wrongdoings, he had to protect her, considering

that Anthony had saved his life. That was the reason he sent Faye abroad.

"Cool." Jenny said nothing more. Although she disliked Faye, she couldn’t be bothered to

hold a grudge as long as Faye didn't give her more trouble.

Jenny didn’t stay long at Alec's place. After downing the juice-like cocktail, she excused

herself. He didn't object and sent her to the door. After confirming that she had returned to

her own place, he closed the door of his unit. However, instead of going to bed, he went to

work in his study like a tireless robot. His life consisted of only two things—Jenny

and...work.

Back at home, Jenny stared blankly at her unfamiliar bedroom. Soon, she gathered herself

and quickly tidied up the place. Then, she went to the bathroom to shower and then lay

comfortably on her bed.

She had a good sleep that night, perhaps thanks to Alec's cocktail juice. She usually would

struggle to sleep well in an unfamiliar place, so the good sleep came as a surprise. At first,

she thought Alec was bluffing when he mentioned how his cocktail would help with sleep,

but his words turned out to be true.

The doorbell rang, interrupting her thoughts, and she scrambled to get out of bed without

washing up. She was embarrassed to see Alec, all dressed up, at her door.
