Chapter 570
Chapter 570 I Wouldn’t Feel the Same Way
Sleep crashed into Jenny the moment she sat back in the front passenger seat. She drifted off almost
instantly, trusting the man beside her. Alec didn’t say anything throughout the ride, he only slowed his
driving speed.
They soon reached home.
Just as Alec was wondering whether to carry Jenny back home or wait for her to awaken, she slowly
blinked her eyes open.
“Sorry…fell asleep.” she yawned. Embarrassmentced her tone. She didn’t even remember when she
started sleeping.
Alec shrugged and opened the door for her. “Get some rest.” With an arm around her shoulders, Alec
led Jenny inside the building.
Jenny wasn’t in a rush to go back. Her father was still at her ce, so they wouldn’t be able to spend
time with each other any further for the night if she went back.
“Can we go to your ce for a bit?” Jenny asked suddenly.Alec took a split second to recover from his
surprise before responding,” Sure.” He unlocked his door, and the two stepped in.
The apartment decor had taken on a warmer, cozier tone. Jenny loungedfortably on the couch,
examining the space.
Alec brought her a ss of water, sitting down by her side. ’Something you wanna tell me before you
turn in for the night?”
Jenny drank her water. “It’s…nothing.”
She didn’t exactly know why she wanted to be here. All she knew was that she didn’t want to go back
so soon.
Alec grinned. “You’re gonna miss me, aren’t you?’
Jenny blushed furiously. “No, I won’t, you narcissist.”

“Fine. I’m gonna miss you then. Is that alright with you?” Alec drawled.
Jenny’s blush reddened further. She avoided his gaze. “Have you gone to visit Grandpa yet?”
“Not yet. I didn’t have time today. I’ll do it tomorrow.” He had been too preupied to go back to the
Old Mansion. Mortimer was also still there, and he was thest person Alec wanted to see right now.
Jenny nodded. “What’ll you do with Grandpa if you go to Bardoff City?”
“I’ll have him stay with me in the city once things settle down. We’ve always lived together.” Alec
shrugged. If the old man didn’t want to leave, he still had his staff to tend to him in the Old Mansion.
Jenny erased that worry from her mind, then asked, “You’ve been really busytely, huh?’
Busy plotting against the sses and shifting thepany headquarters. Alec wasn’t one to delegate
these tasks to others, unlike Jenny. Instead, he put it on himself to get things done.
“Eh. I just have to remember why I’m doing it; to be closer to you. And all the stress goes away,” Alec
said, gazing fondly at Jenny.
Her heartbeat quickened. ‘Is it really worth it? I wouldn’t feel the same way if I were you.”
To Jenny, giving her all to someone and not even getting a definite answer to a rtionship in response
was not worth it.
“It is. I’d do anything,’ Alec said. He had never questioned his actions.
Jenny gazed at him, finally asking her something to which she never found the answer. “Alec, why do
you like me?’
