To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 126


    Chapter 126 Is That It?


    “We’re not close now, but we could be in the future.” Christopher didn’t take her words to heart and


    merely drove.

    Jenny said nothing more. She didn’t care about Christopher’s words at all. She didn’t think that they


    would ever be that close.


    The car soon stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. They went in.


    Outside the restaurant, Vincent got off his car. When he saw the two people walking into the restaurant,


    he was surprised. Hadn’t Mr. Faust said that he would invite Jenny to dinner? Why was Jenny out here


    with another man? After a moment’s hesitation, he decided to call Alec.


    In a private booth, Christopher poured a ss of wine for Jenny and smiled at her. “Would you like


    some wine?”


    She shook her head. “I don’t drink.”


    Although Jenny knew she had a good alcohol tolerance, after what happened before, she understood


    that it didn’t mean she was invincible. Hence, she still had to be on her guard.


    Christopher did not force her to drink and gave her a different ss. She took it and ced it on the


    table, not meaning to drink it.


    “Jenny, you’re totally thinking of me as the viin.” Christopher didn’t know if he shouldugh or cry. Did


    he look that creepy?


    Jenny merely smiled. “Don’t think too much about it, Mr. Spade. It’s just a habit of mine. I hope you’ll


    understand.”


    “Of course.” He nodded. What else could he do, anyway?


    Jenny hadn’t agreed to eat with him simply to do just that. She asked, “So, what do you want from


    me?”


    He was a little stunned. He smiled. “Can’t we just be friends?”


    “Of course, we can.” She nodded, but her gaze grew sharp. “However, I don’t think that you’re


    someone who needs more friends.”


    “Jenny-”


    “If you want to be friends, Mr. Spade, why don’t you be honest? Don’t treat me like a fool,” Jenny cut


    him off and looked at him coldly.


    Growing up, the pampered Christopher had never been treated like this before. He suddenly felt a little


    guilty. After a while, he coughed to disperse the awkward tension and said slowly, “Well, my father


    wants me to be in your good books. He has a good impression of you.”


    “Is that it?” She raised an eyebrow, a little doubtful.


    “That’s it.” Christopher nodded, adding, “Perhaps it’s because you saved his life. He likes you very


    much and hopes that I can pursue you. So… Well, you know.”


    That was a little unexpected. Jenny always thought that the Spades had something up their sleeve,


    which was why her guard was up. But now it seemed that she was simply overthinking things.


    Her grandfather’s words before his passing impacted her greatly. She always worried that someone


    would be out to get her.


    She heaved a deep sigh and smiled. “I see. You should have said this earlier to spare us the


    misunderstanding.”


    “Not necessarily. I think my father’s hrious.” If word got out, people would think that Mr. Spade was in


    a hurry to get his son married.


    Jenny smiled and held up her ss. “I’ll toast you as an apology for being so uptight before.”


    She believed Christopher. Her grandfather said the Spades could be trusted, and besides, Christopher


    was indeed a decent human being these past few days.


    “It’s alright. I understand.” Christopher held up his ss. He was in a good mood. It looked like he had


    earned Jenny’s trust.


    Oh well. One had to be honest if one were to befriend a smart person.
