To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 61


    Chapter 61 Dr. Walter, Let’s Talk


    Jenny looked up, and they locked eyes. Perhaps it was an illusion, but she had the impression that


    Alec was looking at her differently this time.


    “This is my treat,” he offered. She chuckled and rested her chin on the back of her hand. “I can afford


    lunch. You don’t have to do this.”


    She had a dislike, or one might even say hatred, for Alec. Having lunch with him would only ruin her


    appetite.


    “Dr. Walter, let’s talk.” Finally, he gave in. She was amused by his suggestion, for she thought there


    was nothing to be discussed between them.


    “Let’s put the past behind us and get to know each other again. What do you think?” he asked


    anxiously. Jennyughed at the idea and shook her head under his intent gaze. “No.”


    “Why not? Sure, I might have upset you in the Walker incident. How about I work with them again? Is


    that okay?”


    She shook her head again and leaned against the chair, as though she was enjoying a drama. He


    almost lost his temper, but he controlled himself out of guilt for his ex-wife. “What should I do to satisfy


    you?” he asked exasperatedly, suggesting that he had run out of ideas.


    She stared at him for a while before asking. “You knew, didn’t you?”


    He froze.


    “I pped youst night, but you wanted to make it up to me instead of giving me trouble. That itself is


    rather unusual. Unless you were possessed, the only exnation is that you knew the truth.”


    Jenny was not an idiot. In fact, she was born smart. When she met him in the elevator that morning,


    she sensed the change in his attitude but did not think much of it. Now, she was sure that Alec had


    known about her identity as his ex-wife.


    He deliberated for a long time and nodded. “I learned about itst night. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”


    Had he known that Jenny was his ex-wife, they would have had fewer misunderstandings.


    Nevertheless, she did not care about the what-ifs andughed. “Does that matter? We’re strangers


    anyway.”


    He nced at her and felt disturbed when she described them as strangers. “As for the Walkers…”


    “Quit it,” she cut him off with an unfriendly look. “It’s not like they wouldn’t survive without the Faust


    Group. Save your help for the Lawrences.”


    She didn’t hesitate to reject him. From what she knew about Stephanie’s personality, her friend would


    have made the same decision. No one wanted a second crisis.

    He fell silent for a moment and added, “I did you wrong for the past two years. I didn’t know that-*


    “Didn’t know what?” she interjected again, annoyed. “You didn’t know that I looked like this? Or you


    didn’t know that I was not as crude as you had imagined?”


    He didn’t reply. She was not wrong.


    Jenny took a deep breath and realized that she had acted out, which was uncharacteristic of her. After


    a little pause, she announced, “Since we’re divorced, let’s go our separate ways. I hope you


    understand that I don’t want to see you again.”


    She used harsh and merciless words on him without regard for his ego. Even though he wanted to


    repair


    their rtionship, that did not mean he would tolerate everything she inflicted on him.


    “Got it.” He nodded and stood up with a grim face. “I wish you the best.”


    “Thank you. Same to you,” she replied.
