To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) -
Chapter 149
Chapter 149 Leave This To Me
The crowd's expressions shifted, and they stepped back hurriedly. They were just angry. They didn't actually want to hurt Jenny.
Jenny looked extremely sour. She didn't expect the water. They wanted to disfigure her.
She glared at the offender. Her instincts told her that something else had brought them there. But right now, she had no time to think about all this. She shifted her gaze to the man before her and asked, "Are you alright? Why did you come here?"
Alec turned and smiled. "I told you that you could always rely on me."
"Your arm..."
"It's alright. Let's go." He wasn't sure if other dangers were lurking around.
Jenny held his gaze for a moment and nodded. They left together. This time, no one blocked her from doing so.
In the car, Alec revved up the engine. He didn't mention where they would be going.
"Stop the car," Jenny suddenly said.
He frowned. Patiently, he said, "Don't get mad. Let's just leave this place."
"I said stop the car!" Jenny insisted. Alec's arm was bright red. How could this be alright? Did he truly think he was invincible?
Alec had no choice but to stop the car. Jenny walked around to the driver's seat and opened the door. "I'll drive."
"There's no need."
Jenny said nothing, steadfastly holding her gaze.
Alec could only get down from the car and sit in the passenger's seat. What was Jenny doing?
He realized soon enough.
The car headed toward Parrington Hospital. When it stopped at the entrance, Alec's emotions jumbled together. It felt like he was beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. "Jenny, I..."
"Cut the crap. Get down!" Jenny was already out of the car. Although she sounded harsh, Alec didn't get angry. She hadn't stopped him from calling her "Jenny" To him, it was a big step in the right direction. Jenny was clueless about the thoughts running through Alec's mind. She brought him to the emergency ward. The doctor on duty was her friend, so she said, "Dr. Talon, he's been scalded. Please tend to him immediately."
"Alright." Dr. Talon nodded before realizing that the patient who had walked in was none other than Alec Faust. He wasn't nervous before, but now, he panicked. "Mr... Mr. Faust?"
"Don't overthink it. He's just another patient," Jenny reminded him.'
Alec nodded as well. "Listen to Jenny. Don't overthink things."
Dr. Talon was bewildered. What was going on between them? Alec had called her "Jenny." It sounded so personal. He knew nothing because people his age didn't surf the internet often. He didn't know that Jenny was Alec's ex-wife.
Dr. Talon treated Alec's wounds nervously. He said, "For the next few days, avoid contact with water and eat bland foods. It shouldn't leave a scar."
"Alright. Thanks for the trouble," Alec said.
Dr. Talon's knees felt weak. He nearly toppled over.
After the wound was treated, Jenny took Alec away. If they stayed, the people crowding around them would only increase.
Since when were her colleagues so nosy?
Once in the car, Jenny asked, "Where' are you going? I'll drive you there."
He was in pain, and it was because of her. Jenny felt that she had to express her gratitude somehow. "Where were you planning to go?"
