Chapter 139

Chapter 139 A Place like Parrington

Alec didn't raise his head. "Maybe another time. I'm busy today."

"Alright." Yvonne was exasperated. "Can we have lunch together, at least? It's been a long time since we've eaten together."

Alec looked up, his eyebrows furrowing. "Isn't Dickman LLC about to collapse? Why aren't you settling the trouble caused by Pearson and Gilbert instead of hanging around here?"

He thought that Yvonne was there to ask for his help. He had already thought of what to say to reject her, but she hadn't spoken about it at all.

"My father has brought Steven into the company. It's no longer my concern." She smiled, but her heart.

ached.

Alec was quite understanding of Mr. Dickman's behavior, so he couldn't help feeling sorry for Yvonne. After all, they had been friends for many years. He didn't like the Dickmans purely because of Steven, but

he didn't hate Yvonne.

He gathered his files and said, "Let's have lunch."

"Alright." She smiled, feeling happy.

Oh, Jenny. Yvonne and Alec had known each other for many years. Jenny could never compare to their relationship.

It was midday. Jenny had just finished performing surgery and was leaving the hospital to eat at a nearby

restaurant.

Not long after, a few men surrounded her. "If you don't want to get hurt, follow us."

Jenny swept a gaze over her surroundings-there were a lot of pedestrians. She felt irritated. If a fight were to happen, these innocent civilians would be affected. "Alright."

As long as she wasn't drugged, she stood a fair chance of fighting even after leaving the place.

The people seemed to not want to fight on the streets, either. They took Jenny to a cramped alley at the back and brought a rope toward her.

"Are you going to do this yourself, or are you going to let us?"

Jenny smirked. "If you tied me up in the street, you might have succeeded. But now..."

She didn't know if she could consider them fools. They had missed such a good opportunity. How naive. of them to think that they could tie her up now. However, they didn't panic. "We know you're good at self-defense. We're pretty confident in our abilities,

too."

Jenny frowned. Before she could dwell on their words, they attacked. She responded instantly, counter-attacking. They were pretty good but could not compare to her, and they quickly lost their bravado. "If you come to the police station with me to rat out your leader, I'll consider letting you go without consequences," Jenny tried to convince them while fighting them. She didn't force them to tell her who was behind it. The only people in Parrington who would want to attack her right now were the Dickmans.

They said nothing, merely continuing to fight her.

Jenny raised her eyebrows. Her gaze turned cold. Her movements sped up, and she instantly defeated two of her attackers.

Seeing this, someone roared, "What the fuck are you doing, Dill? Are you seriously going to let her defeat

Us?"

Jenny wondered what this meant. She quickly understood because, in the next second, one of the people attacking her suddenly switched up his battle style. His speed and his strength increased greatly, and the tables were turned.

"Oh. Someone has been holding back." Jenny had underestimated the Dickmans. She said it like it was nothing, but she grew serious in her fighting. Dill was good at fighting. He wasn't that far off from Alec, and it made her uneasy.

In all of Parrington, only Alec was stronger than her. Now, there was another one.
