    Chapter 376 This is My Choice


    The two happily ate dinner, enjoying each other’spany.


    “Had a busy day?” Jenny asked, sneaking a peek at Alec’s desk filled with mountains of documents.


    She felt bad. He always seemed so rxed and unbothered around her, even cooking for her


    sometimes. Turns out he was actually really upied at work.


    Alec nodded. “Yeah. Company’s going through a peak period.”


    He didn’t tell her about what was strange with worktely. It seemed like someone was directing all the


    chaos hurtling at hispany. But without any evidence of who it was, he had decided not to tell Jenny


    first in case she worried.


    “You really don’t need any help with the Goldings?” Alec asked.


    Jenny shook her head and swiftly took out the contract she had signed earlier. “Everything’s settled.”-


    Alec read the contract, then smiled. “Not bad. I thought you were gonna give it all without taking


    anything in return.”


    The contract stipted clearly that Jenny would get 40% of the Goldingpany’s shares in exchange


    for her billion-dor investment. There was little to no chance Jenny would be walking away losing.


    “I’m not a saint.” Jennyughed through her meal. Alec decided not to burst her bubble because only a


    saint would help a dyingpany with that much money.


    After they finished eating, Jenny decided not to interrupt Alec further with his work. “I’ll go home first.


    Will you be working overtime tonight?”


    “Looks like it. I’ll have Vincent drive you.”


    Jenny refused. “No, it’s okay. You need all the help you can get.” She couldn’t let Alec lose his assistant


    now that he was swamped with work.


    Just as Alec was hesitating, his phone rang. He picked up and hung up within ten seconds.

    “Now I really need Vincent to drive you.” When Jenny frowned, Alec exined, “I need you to get me


    something from my ce. Vincent can give it to me when hees back.”


    “But-” She didn’t have his house keys, she wanted to say, but Alec had already plopped them into her


    hand.


    “Here. Keep ’em. From now on, my ce is your ce too.”


    Jenny blinked in surprise, then smiled awkwardly. “I’ll have to give you the keys to my house too,


    then?”


    Alec grinned. “That’s your choice to make.” He wouldn’t force her, of course.


    “I should…give these back to you,” Jenny suddenly said.


    “Why?” Alec immediately looked upset.


    “I…haven’t thought things through yet.” She hadn’t decided whether to give her keys to Alec or not. It


    felt like the next step to deepen their rtionship, which meant it was a major step.


    Noticing this, Alec gently caressed her cheek. “It’s okay. Think about it first. We don’t have to rush.”


    “But the keys…”


    “Are yours now. That’s my decision. Okay?” He was willing to show all of himself to Jenny, and it was


    okay if she needed time to do so.


    Jenny nodded. “Okay.”


    “Go on back then. The documents are on my study shelf.”
