To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 125
Chapter 125 An Agreement Made by the Older Generation
Soon, it was six in the evening. It was time to get off work.
Jenny packed up all her things and prepared to leave the hospital, but she didn’t expect Alec to call.
“Is there something you need?” she asked as she packed up her things.
“How is Mr. Spade?” he asked. His tone was calm and neutral, as if he were a boss simply checking in
on his employee.
Jenny said truthfully, “All is well. He should be discharged in a few days.”
No matter what, Alec was now one of the biggest shareholders of Parrington Hospital. Technically, he
was her boss. If he asked her questions, she had to answer him.
Alec hummed in response andpsed into silence, which bewildered Jenny. She noticed that it was
almost time for her dinner with Christopher. She asked, “Is there anything else, Mr. Faust?”
“Are you free tonight? I’d like to take you out to dinner,” he said. Then, he added quickly, “My
grandfather wants to see you.”
He had no choice. He knew that if he invited her out to dinner alone, Jenny would refuse. He had to
bring his grandfather into this as a shield.
Jenny frowned and said, “I can’t make it tonight. I’ll eat with him at the Old Mansion some other time.”
“Are you busy tonight?” Alec asked, a little disappointed. Vincent told him that he had to take the lead,
quell some of the dissatisfaction that Jenny felt for him. That was why he mustered up the courage to
call her, but now….
“Yeah. I’m busy.” For some reason, she felt a little guilty. A dinner date was considered business,
wasn’t it? Sheforted herself.
“Alright.” Alec hung up. He was definitely disappointed, but it was fine. He had time.
Right as she finished her conversation with Alec, Christopher appeared at her office door. “Are you
done?”
“Yeah. Let’s go.” She took her bag and left the hospital with Christopher.
They didn’t conceal the fact that they were walking together. It stirred jealousy amongst the hospital
employees.
“Dr. Walter is so lucky. I’ve heard that Christopher is from the Spades of Bardoff City. They’re amazing.”
“How amazing? Is he better than Mr. Faust?” The person who had spoken was a fan of Alec’s. No one
could be better than him in her eyes.

The initial speaker red at her and said, “Although the Fausts are thergest family in Parrington, the
Spades are nearly at the same level in Bardoff City.”
“Hmph! I don’t believe it.”
Their discussion went on furiously. Jenny, who had already left the hospital, knew nothing of it. She
didn’t ask where Christopher was taking her to. After all, he couldn’t possibly kidnap her in broad
daylight.
“Why did you marry Alec Faust? As far as I know, you two had no contact with each other before the
marriage.” The air in the car was 100 stuffy for Christopher to sit back and stew in it. He just had to talk.
Jenny retracted her gaze from the window and looked at him. “It was an arrangement made by the
older generation.”
Jenny actually didn’t know why her grandfather would make such a decision. He said someone would
protect her this way, but Jenny had not encountered any danger in these past twenty years. Why would
she need to be protected?
She was the one who approached the Fausts back then. When Old Mr. Faust knew of her
grandfather’s arrangement, he hadn’t refused. He had willingly let Alec marry her.
She knew that this was not normal. But following her grandfather’s death and Old Mr. Faust’s
unwillingness to speak, she never figured out why.
“An arrangement made by the older generation?” Christopher was surprised. “I didn’t think that you
would be the type to settle for an arranged marriage.”
In his eyes, Jenny was a smart and independent woman. Women like her should be opinionated and
have their own ideas about their marriage. Why would she…
Jenny looked at him and smiled. “You talk as if we’re close.”
In reality, they knew nothing about each other beyond their names.
