Chapter 974 Listen to Me This Once
Early in the morning, Jenny was awakened by the laughter of children in the neighborhood.
She opened her eyes groggily, picked up her phone from the bedside, and saw that it was
not yet 7 am. The children should be asleep now, so why were they making noise
downstairs?
Before she could fully wake up, the doorbell rang. Jenny struggled to get out of bed. The
moment she opened the door, she saw Alec standing outside. She felt a little irritated at
being awakened from her sleep prematurely. "Mr. Faust, why are you at my door so early?"
She was puzzled. Alec never came to look for her so early in the morning. "Did something
bad happen?" Jenny started making guesses blindly.
"Get dressed and come downstairs." Observing Jenny's expression, Alec guessed that
she’d just woken up and probably didn't know what was happening outside.
"I don't want to go. I want to sleep a little longer." Jenny turned to go back to her room,
but Alec grabbed her wrist.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Listen to me this once, Jenny." Alec's expression was serious, and he wasn't joking. This
made Jenny feel perturbed and worried. Had something really gone wrong?
Thinking of this, she grabbed her coat from the door and put it on, ready to go downstairs
with him.
"This is too thin. Wear something thicker," Alec reminded her.
"Is it?" Jenny wondered. She wore the same coat yesterday and didn't feel cold at all. But
under Alec's gaze, she went back to her room and put on a down jacket before coming
back out.
"Is this thick enough?" she asked.
"Yeah, let's go." Alec smiled and nodded, taking her hand and leading her toward the
elevator.
Jenny was still puzzled. Based on Alec's expression, there probably wasn't anything wrong.
But if there wasn't anything wrong, why did he wake her up so early and make her go
downstairs with him?
"Alec, what's going on?" She couldn't help but ask.
Alec smiled and didn't answer. "Don't worry. You'll know soon enough."
Jenny looked at him helplessly. Was it really necessary for him to be so secretive?
As the elevator dinged, they arrived on the first floor. Alec grabbed Jenny's hand and led
her out of the elevator. As soon as they stepped out, a cold wind blew, lifting Jenny's hair.
The next second, the completely white sight astounded her, making her freeze in place—it
was snowing.
The neighborhood was covered in white snow, and not far away, children were excitedly
playing in the snow.
Snowflakes were still falling from the sky, leaving her in awe.
Jenny grew up in Parrington, located in the south, and rarely had snow throughout the
year. Although she'd seen snow in other cities, this experience was different.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Alec smiled as he asked. He was also from Parrington and rarely saw
snow, so he was quite happy, especially because he could watch his first snowfall with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJenny.
Jenny nodded and walked toward the snowy ground. "The snow in the north comes so
early."
At this time, people in some cities in the south could still wear tee shirts or shirts with
short sleeves, but the north had already started snowing in contrast.
"Stand still and don't move." Alec suddenly demanded.
Jenny turned to look at him and saw that he was holding his phone up in her direction.
He took several pictures and was very satisfied with the result. Then, he walked over and
handed the phone to Jenny. "It's very beautiful."
It was unclear whether he was referring to the snow or to Jenny.
"Hey Jenny, are you and your boyfriend up early to watch the snow?" The lady who owned
the grocery store in the community had also woken up early. Seeing Alec taking pictures of
Jenny, she smiled and greeted them.
Jenny wanted to explain that they weren't in a romantic relationship, but Alec spoke first,
"Ma'am, could you take a picture of us?"
"Sure," the lady took the phone from Alec, and with a few taps, she took several pictures
of them together swiftly.
