To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 36

Chapter 36 I'm Only Interested in You

They stared at each other. Jenny saw a flash of hatred in his eyes.

She was sure that she hadn't done anything against him, much less anything that would invoke his wrath. What was the source of his rage? Was it Alec?

In an instant, realization dawned on her.

"I'm not interested in Alec, either," she replied. "I don't know what grudges you two hold against each other, but I want no part of it."

"That's a stretch. I'm only interested in you." Max went back to normal in the blink of an eye. His cheerful demeanor looked nothing like someone who would want to kill his own father. "Well, I refuse," she said.

Max wasn't angry. He stood, smiling. "It's okay. There is time, still. I believe that I will make you like me one day."

Before waiting for Jenny to reply, he left the office.

Jenny was speechless. What a day it was.

She had another surgery scheduled for that afternoon. Right as she was about to prepare, Morgan rushed up to her.

"Dr. Walter, there's a patient in the emergency room who insists on surgery," she said unhappily.

"What's the matter? Is it serious?" Jenny asked, walking toward the emergency room.

But Morgan pulled her back. "Don't go there. That patient's family is really stubborn. It's just a mild concussion. There is no need for surgery at all. The doctors in the emergency room have already told them this, but they refuse to believe it. They insist on seeing you."

Jenny's eyebrows furrowed. After some thought, she said, "I'll take a look."

"Okay." Seeing that she insisted, Morgan said nothing else, following Jenny to the emergency room.

Not long after, they reached the emergency room and were immediately surrounded.

"Are you Dr. Walter? The best neurosurgeon in the world?" The patient's family stared at her, faces full of doubt. They had heard that an amazing neurosurgeon worked in Parrington Hospital, so they begged the ambulance to bring them there. But the girl before their eyes looked very young. Could she really be so amazing?

Jenny ignored them. She looked at the doctor and asked, "Have you done the CT scan? Let me look at it."

She was concerned for the patient. She would feel better if she saw the scan herself.

The doctor handed the file quickly to her and said, "It's a mild concussion. He'll be fine after staying here. for a few days, but they insist on surgery."

He was exasperated. He had only seen people who refused surgery, not people who insisted on having

one.

Jenny looked at it and nodded. "Indeed. Everything seems to be in order."

She glanced at Joey Little, who was lying on the bed. He was very young. The records showed that he was only 16 years old. "Heilo, Joey. I'm Dr. Walter. I'm going to perform a checkup on you, so I'll need you to cooperate

Joey nodded. He was much more obedient than his noisy relatives.

Jenny did the checkup and said, "There are no major issues. Only a few scrapes and a mild concussion. You'll be fine after staying here for a few days. You don't need surgery."

"Absolutely not." A woman rushed over and pointed at Joey. "He looks fine, but I'm sure his brain is

bleeding. How can surgery not be needed?"

Displeasure flashed across Jenny's eyes as she looked at the woman. "You are his?"

"Mother," she continued, "He must have surgery. What If something happens? Will you be responsible for

it?"

"He is fine in every way. There is no reason for us to perform surgery on him." Jenny explained, visibly annoyed. "Why do you think he needs one?"

"I'm his mother. If I say he needs one, he gets one." The woman was insistent, a ferocious look on her face.
