To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 32


    Chapter 32 Drowning


    “Y… yes,” Alec replied with great difficulty. He felt as if the darkness would soon drown him, and


    Jenny’s hand was the only thing keeping him afloat.


    “My phone is out of battery. Where’s yours?” she asked as she held on to him. She felt that his


    trembling was growing worse. If this persisted, he would pass out in the elevator. “I’m going to search


    for it myself if you say nothing.” She began feeling around with her hands.


    She had no intentions besides calling the property manager, but then, in the darkness, her hands


    fumbled and groped. Her slender fingers touched Alec’s firm chest, and further down were his


    prominent abdominal muscles. He had a good figure, she thought.


    “Where are you touching?” Alec said, somehow managing to sound cold through his trembling voice.


    Jenny took her hand away quickly andughed dryly. “I don’t know where your phone is.”


    The man scoffed, pushing down the revulsion in his chest. He took his phone out of his wallet. “I don’t.


    have the manager’s number. Call Vincent.”


    “Fine.” Jenny nodded and called Vincent at once. She exined everything to him, and the only thing


    left. to do was wait.


    She turned on Alec’s shlight, which helped because he wasn’t trembling as much now.


    “Are you ustrophobic?” she asked, wanting to divert his attention.


    He shook his head.


    “What is it, then?” As a doctor, she wanted to know purely out of professional curiosity.


    Alec looked at her with hatred in his eyes. “It’s none of your business.”


    Jenny was speechless and scooted to the side, distancing herself from him. What a waste of her


    concern. He didn’t deserve her pity at all!


    “Why are you moving away?” The shlight was weak, and when Jenny moved, Alec couldn’t see her


    at all. He dared not move. The darkness to him was akin to arge cave; if he neared it, he would be


    devoured.


    “Because I want to,” Jenny said, her tone upset.


    Alec’s head was beginning to ache. He wanted to force himself to stand but realized he couldn’t ‘Come


    over.”


    “No,” she refused.


    “I’ll tell you the reason if you do.” Alec gave in purely because he couldn’t stand to face the darkness


    alone


    Jenny hesitated at this. But soon, her curiosity drove her toward him.


    When he saw her, the fears in his heart faded away. “I’m just afraid of the dark.”


    “Afraid of the dark?” Jenny was shocked. Her face was full of disbelief.


    Mr. Faust? Afraid of the dark? Was this a joke?


    Faced with her doubt, Alec did not want to borate. “Yes. I’m afraid of the dark.”


    “I can’t believe it. Mr. Faust is afraid of the dark. If this gets out, people would be shocked.” A grin


    spread


    across Jenny’s face. She was considering leaking this out, relishing seeing him humiliated.


    However, Alec’s expression darkened at once. “Don’t you dare!”

    “Don’t be so mad. Right now, you’re just a helpless kitten to me. I hold your secret.” She held up his


    phone.


    “What are you doing?” Alec eximed at once.


    “Tell me. What will happen to you if I turn off the shlight?” She smiled, looking like a demon in the


    darkness
