    Chapter 769 What Does That Have to Do With You


    Ignoring his advances, Jenny reiterated her words and added, “I can perform the surgery on you, but


    you have to understand the risks thate with it.”


    “Got it.” Given that he was willing toe for a consultation, he must have been mentally prepared for


    the worst-case scenario. Curious about his insistence, she asked, “I remember you said you didn’t care


    about the memory loss. Why would you change your mind now?”


    “What are the consequences of not getting the surgery?” he suggested, directing the question back at


    her.


    She immediately understood him and chuckled. ’Mr. Faust, you are indeed smart. Without the surgery,


    you will gradually lose your eyesight and likely suffer a brain hemorrhage.”


    Alec could opt for surgery when his condition deteriorated, which would not threaten his life, but no one


    could foresee other uncertainties in his life at that time. Therefore, it was clever of him to get the


    surgery out of the way.

    “When can I get the surgery?’ he asked.


    Jenny checked her schedule and thought about it for a moment. “Let’s do it in a week. I need to


    prepare for the surgery and get assistance from other departments.”


    “Sure.” He had no objections.


    After their discussion, she had to politely ask him to leave because it did not seem he would make a


    move. “Mr. Faust, you may leave now if you have nothing else to discuss. I need to see my next


    patient.”


    “What’s your rtionship with Evan rke?” he blurted out as he stared at her. She froze in


    astonishment. “Mr. Faust, you’re quite a busybody, aren’t you? That is none of your business.”


    “I’m just curious,” he replied.


    Feeling disdainful, she refused to give him a second look and called out to her next patient, “Lisa


    Green!”


    He had no choice but to leave, but the feeling of uneasiness lingered. On his way out, he bumped into


    Evan rke, who was there to meet Jenny.


    Evan was startled to see him but gathered himself. “Mr. Faust, are you here for a consultation with


    Jenny?”


    “Yes.” Alec nodded but didn’t leave. He hung around and chatted with Evan, perhaps out of curiosity


    about his rtionship with Jenny.


    “You don’t have any feelings for Jenny now. Am I right?” Evan went straight to the point.


    Frowning at Evan’s boldness, Alec retorted, “What does that have to do with you?”


    “It has everything to do with me,” Evan exined. “I have known her since we were young. She went


    through a lot these years because I was living abroad. Now that I’m back, I won’t allow anyone to hurt


    her.” He nced at Alec with hostility. “I hope that people like you, who have hurt her, stay far away


    from her.” He knew very well that the visit to the hospital was Alec’s excuse to meet with Jenny.


    Ashen-faced, Alec snorted. ’Are you telling me that you’re childhood sweethearts with Jenny?”


    “That’s not wrong.” Evan did not deny it. “My only regret was rejecting her confession years ago.”


    “Jenny confessed to Evan rke, and he rejected her?’ Alec thought.


    rmed and distressed, he might act on his temper had his rationality not held him back.


    “Mr. rke, what’s the point of telling me? I’m not interested in your rtionship with Jenny. I was only


    here to book surgery with her.” Alec’s excuse was flimsy, given that he was the one who had initiated


    the conversation
