Chapter 462 You'll Face Retribution

Yvonne couldn't understand what Jenny had pointed out. Even if she did, she adamantly refused to accept it as the truth.

"Do you think you've won? Do you think Alec really loves you that much?" Yvonne asked. She then scoffed, "His heart belongs to Quinn, and you're just a substitute!"

Alec's expression changed in an instant. He'd been wondering who would've told Jenny about Quinn, but now it seemed Yvonne played a part in it.

"Shut up!" Alec bellowed as he moved toward Yvonne.

"What are you doing? Do you intend to kill me so that I'll be silenced?" Yvonne asked and laughed at her own question. She never imagined that she and Alec would face off like this one day.

Alec was now standing in front of Yvonne, ready to strike, but Jenny stepped forward and stopped him.

"Don't waste your energy on someone like her," Jenny said. Looking at Yvonne, she continued calmly, "For me, there is no victory or defeat. I rely on myself. I don't care about the relationship between Alec and Quinn, and I'm not afraid of losing Alec as well. Yvonne, do you understand?"

She was strong and could stand on her own two feet, so she wasn't afraid of losing anyone.

Yvonne understood what she meant. She once dreamed of being someone like that, but she couldn't achieve it herself. Therefore, she didn't believe that Jenny could do it either. "Easy for you to say. Are you sure you got to where you are today without Alec's help?" Yvonne sneered, not convinced by Jenny's words at all. Jenny was about to speak, but Yvonne interrupted her, "The Dickmans were taken over because Alec intervened. It wouldn't have happened if he didn't stop the Blooms. Wasn't your clothing design company used to be mine? Can you really say that your haven't relied on Alec at all?"

Yvonne thought she had hit Jenny where it hurt with her sharp words. However, Jenny didn't care, nor was she angry. "Alec's collaboration with my elder brother has nothing to do with me. I got the company...' She paused, then smiled helplessly. "Why am I telling you all this? You have it in your mind that I relied on Alec to get to where I am. No matter how much I explain, you won't believe it. *She felt stupid trying to persuade Yvonne.

Why was she doing something so meaningless?

Jenny turned to Alec. "Get some rest. Don't mind her. If she bangs on the door again, I'll just call for security."

"Alright. You go ahead first."

He had to make sure Jenny was back in her unit safely before he could relax. Jenny didn't oppose him. She walked in and closed the door, ignoring Yvonne's sharp glare.

As soon as the door closed, Alec's gentle demeanor from just a second ago vanished completely. His face turned cold and grim as he asked, "Yvonne, do you really think you didn't get married to me because Jenny appeared in my life?"

Yvonne didn't reply, but in her heart, she believed so.

"I'll tell you the truth. Even without Jenny, I would never have married you."

He felt it necessary to make it clear to her so she would stop holding onto unrealistic fantasies. His words were somewhat hurtful to Yvonne.

"But we used to be so good-"

"You thought it that way on your own. To me, you were just an ordinary friend."

He didn't want to give her any hope.

"So it was just all in my head?"

She really did think she could marry Alec back then. She thought she was different from other women in Alec's eyes. But now it seemed she'd been foolish to think that. Besides Jenny, Alec didn't seem genuine in his feelings toward anyone else.

"Alec, you will face retribution for this!" Yvonne cursed and walked away.
