To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 141


    Chapter 141 Is He Dead?


    Alec strode in. His anxious gaze rested on Jenny, and he was stunned for a long moment before


    coming


    back to his senses.


    “Are you alright?” he asked, his voice thick with worry.


    Jenny was shocked and asked, uncertain, “Are you here for me?”


    Alec’s face darkened immediately. “What, you think I’m here for a vacation?”


    Jenny smiled dryly. She wasn’t quite sure how to describe what she was feeling. She would never have


    guessed that the first person toe to help her when she was in danger would be Alec. It was such


    an

    irony.


    “Are you alright? What happened?” He walked over to her side, asking about what had happened.


    She shook her head. Truthfully speaking, she was still a little dazed. “Nothing.”


    Alec furrowed his eyebrows. “Nothing at all?”


    Jenny nodded. She knew Alec was equally bewildered. She was kidnapped, but nothing was done to


    her. Her kidnappers had only dumped her in this hotel for Alec to find. What was the point of this?


    At this moment, Alec caught sight of the blood on the floor and looked at Jenny worriedly. “Are you


    hurt?”


    “It’s not my blood.” Jenny shook her head, turning toward the bedroom.


    Alec looked over as well. They exchanged a nce with each other and walked in together.


    The curtains were drawn. It was dark. When they walked in, they saw nothing at first.


    Alec walked over to the windows and pulled the curtains apart. When he turned back, he saw Jenny


    frozen in her spot, and panic shed through her eyes.


    “What’s wrong?” He walked over.


    Jenny didn’t reply. It was then that Alec saw everything, too.


    On the king-sized bedy a familiar figure. The upper half of his body had been stripped, and hey


    there unmoving like a rock.


    No. Alec thought that he wasn’t like a rock. He was a dead rock. A dagger pierced his chest, and his


    blood stained the entire bed. There was no way he could have lived.


    “Is he dead?” Jenny said after a long time. She was doing her best to stay calm.


    Alec walked over to check his breathing. He shook his head. “He’s gone.”


    Jenny, who felt like she had been preparing herself for this, stepped back.


    The person lying on the bed was Steven, whom she hated. She wished for him to spend his life in


    prison, but when hey dead before her, she found it hard to stomach.


    It wasn’t because she was a saint. It was because she thought something as vile and disgusting as he


    should be punished byw, not by anyone else.


    Jennypsed into deep thought. However, Alec’s sharp senses told him things weren’t as simple as


    they seemed.


    He turned toward Jenny and said, “You and Steven were in the same room, and now he’s dead. This is


    a huge problem. Go. Don’t let anyone see you.”


    Jenny snapped back to reality and understood what Alec meant. Anyone could figure out that this was


    a trap. Someone was trying to frame her.


    With that thought in mind, Jenny was relieved. She feared being kept in the dark about her kidnapper’s


    motives. Now that she knew, things were easy to handle.


    “It’s okay. I want to know who exactly would sacrifice a life to hurt me.” Her gaze grew sharp. Steven


    was a bastard, but he still had a life.


    “Don’t be stubborn. If you stay here-”


    “I’m not a child, Mr. Faust. I don’t need your protection,” she interjected, looking at him steadily.


    Alec was stunned, as if he couldn’t quite figure her out. Jenny was not like the other girls. They needed


    to be protected, and they wanted to be protected. But Jenny didn’t need it. She could always handle


    things. on her own.
