    Chapter 755 I’m Trying to Avoid That


    After Gilbert left, Jenny leaned against the bed and took out her phone, scrolling through thetest


    news. She checked her call log and saw that she had made an emergency call to Alec, but he hadn’t


    answered and had only called her back about an hourter.


    She continued thinking about what would have happened had Alec answered her call.


    At that time, she had just entered the mountains, so if someone hade to her rescue, she might not


    have had to suffer the two gunshotster on. But then again, he had no obligation toe to her aid.


    She med herself for setting him as her emergency contact, which almost cost her life.


    She decided to change her emergency contact to Gilbert. She felt confident that he woulde to her


    rescue no matter what. As for Alec, she decided to keep him on the list of blocked contacts and have


    no further contact with him. Although he had no obligation to save her, Jenny’s heart still hurt and felt


    ufortable.


    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the ward. Jenny thought it was Evan returning and said,


    “Come in.”


    It was Derrick who entered instead. Jenny was hospitalized in Bardoff Hospital, and all the well-


    informed people in the hospital knew she was there. Derrick was one of them.


    “Jenny, are you okay? I heard about your ident this morning and rushed over immediately.” Derrick


    approached her and asked how she was doing.


    Jenny forced a smile and said, ‘I’m fine.”


    Derrick pointed to the bandaged wound on her body and asked curiously,” How did you get hurt?”


    “I fell,” Jenny said.


    Derrick thought to himself, “Even if you take me for a fool, at leaste up with a better reason.”


    However, he didn’t say that out loud and instead said, “Oh, okay. Be more careful in the future.”


    Jenny didn’t have much to say to Derrick, and she felt she had already made things clear to him. She


    didn’t know why he was still here. The atmosphere became awkward, and Derrick could tell that Jenny


    didn’t want to talk to him much. But he didn’t want to leave either, feeling he should do something.


    Just then, Evan knocked on the door and came in. Seeing someone else in the room, he asked, “Who’s


    this?”


    “A colleague,” Jenny said.


    “A friend,” Derrick said.


    They both answered, but with entirely different answers. Evan smiled and didn’t pay it any mind,


    saying, “Why don’t you take a seat, Jenny’s colleague? Thank you foring to see Jenny.”


    Derrick didn’t like how Evan acted as if Derrick was a guest in Evan’s home.


    “Jenny, who is he?” Derrick asked.


    “My brother,” Jenny answered.


    “You are not rted by blood, right?”

    “No,” Jenny confirmed.


    Derrick felt uneasy, wondering if Evan was her “boyfriend” instead. Although he didn’t know Evan, he


    could tell from his behavior and appearance that he was probably wealthy. Although it pained Derrick to


    admit it, Evan was even more handsome than him.


    “Is there anything else? If there isn’t, why don’t you run along and do your own thing,” Jenny said to


    him, not wanting to talk to him any longer.


    Derrick nodded with a smile. “Okay, then I’ll go busy myself. Take care of your injury, and I’ll treat you to


    a meal when you recover.”


    Jenny smiled but didn’t agree. She didn’t want to have a meal with Derrick.


    Soon, Derrick left, and Jenny turned to Evan. “Do you still want to be my brother?”


    “No, I’m trying to avoid that,” Evan said, a broad smile on his face.
