To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 1013 Is That It?

When Jenny heard that, she opened her mouth, yet was at a loss for words. She chose to remain silent.

Not long after, they reached Evan's villa. Howard helped her bring her things inside.

"Jenny, go pick out a room that you like." There were many rooms in the villa. Besides the master bedroom where he slept, every other room was empty.

"I'll just stay in the room next to yours.=," Jenny said. "It'll be easier for me to care for you."

"Alright." Evan nodded and looked at Howard. "Put Jenny's things in the room."

"Alright." Howard took her suitcases upstairs.

Jenny stared as Howard left. It was then that Evan introduced him to her. "He was my assistant when I was overseas. When he heard about the incident, he flew over to see me. You can order him around in the future."

"He...probably isn't just an assistant, is he?" Jenny smiled dryly. She wasn't clueless about what Evan did. How could he have an assistant in this situation?

Evan was stunned. He'd forgotten that he had already told her about his business overseas. Although Jenny didn't know that he was the commander of a troop of assassins, she knew that the work he did was dirty.

He snapped back to reality and smiled, saying, "It's not as bad as you think. I was just a muscleman. Because of my skills, I managed to have a few students."

"Is that it?" Jenny was surprised. She thought that Evan was the ringleader of some sort of gang.

"Of course. Don't overestimate me." Evan smiled, not planning on continuing the topic.

Jenny didn't press on. She remembered Alec saying that the doctor would arrive in two days. "There'll be a doctor coming in two days. Why don't you let him perform a checkup on you?" "Alright." Evan wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say it to Jenny.

He would never let the doctor touch him. As for what to do when that happened, Evan wasn't too worried.

Once the room was cleaned up, Evan told Jenny to rest. He went back to his own room.

Howard was already waiting for him.

"Have you found that missing henchman?" Evan said, getting up from his wheelchair.

If Jenny walked in now, she would be able to see this astonishing sight.

Unfortunately, she was staring into space in the other room. She would never, in a million years, think that Evan's injuries were fake.

Howard looked upset. "Not yet."

"Keep looking. We must replace him no matter what." Evan would be at ease if he were dead. What he feared was if he was still alive and was being held hostage by someone. Especially if that someone was Alec

At the thought, he said, "Get someone to observe movement on Alec's side. You know what to do if he's found with the hostage."

"Alright." Howard nodded and asked, "How long are you planning to keep up this pretense? I'm afraid that people are going to attack you once they know you're hurt."

Evan sneered. "Really? That would be even better, then. We could finish them all together."

Evan was no saint.

"But...we don't have enough men." They had suffered a great loss before, and this plan had caused them to lose yet another group of people. They were already running out of manpower in the country. "Don't fret. I've already contacted the other side. There will be people joining us soon." Evan waved his hand around, wanting to put Howard at ease.
