    Chapter 910 What a Great Employee


    Alec spent some time cooking up a reply.


    A whileter, Jenny heard him muttering, "Well, we''re just acquaintances.You know what happened


    between me and him.We would never be close."


    Even though Mortimer was in aa at the hospital, and there appeared to be no conflict between


    Alec and Alfred, they knew that they would never be true friends, considering the bad blood between


    them.


    "Right.So why did he tell you?"


    Jenny asked, feeling confused.


    "He probably...doesn''t want to see you dating Evan rke."


    Alec was surprised too when he received the tip from Alfred, but he thanked the man and didn''t prod


    much.


    She was speechless at Alec''s answer, but she couldn''t deny the possibility of Alfred doing so.


    If Alfred was getting along fine with Alec, it made sense that he would rather see Jenny dating his half-


    brother than Evan rke.She stopped asking questions and took the elevator to her ce.She had


    hired a cleaner to clean up the unit the day before.


    The apartment was ready for her to move in, and she wanted to stay straight away.


    "You should go home."


    She had to urge him to leave when he followed her to her door.He smiled and opened the door to the


    unit across from her.


    Dumbfounded, she finally collected herself after a pause.


    "Do you live here?"


    "Yeah."


    He nodded and added, "Isn''t this fate? We''re neighbors again."


    Fate? Jenny was too surprised to speak.


    He had clearly bought the unit right after learning that she had moved to the apartment.She thought,


    "Does he take me as a fool?"


    "Do you want to have a seat?" he invited her to his ce, even though she refused to host him at hers.


    She waved her hand dismissively.


    "It''s okay.I''ll go to your ce next time."


    She figured that his ce was not much different from hers.


    After all, both of them recently bought their units, which she assumed to havee with old furnishing


    from the former owners.


    "Come in and have a seat.I''ll make you a cocktail for a good night''s sleep."


    He opened the door while speaking.


    Finally, she sumbed to the allure and stepped into his ce.


    She was mostly curious about Alec''s cocktails because she never knew that he was good at mixing


    drinks on top of being a good cook.


    When she entered his living room, she was surprised by the huge contrast in its interior decor.


    The living room sported a contemporary luxury decor, looking deluxe and nothing like a second-hand


    purchase.


    The decor was clearly to Alec''s taste, which puzzled her even more.


    She wondered, ''How did he manage to purchase a unit overnight that perfectly fits his taste? Why


    wasn''t I as lucky?"


    While thinking, she saw him walking toward the bar in his ce and starting to make some cocktails.


    The bar was filled with ingredients for mixing drinks—it seemed he was regrly making cocktails and


    not just for that night.


    "Today wasn''t your first day here," she concluded.


    He nodded.


    "Yeah.I''ve moved in for a while.That''s why I said we were fated."


    He hired an interior designer to work on the decor, which exined why his unit looked different than


    Jenny''s.


    "I don''t now about fate.What I do know is that Alfred is indeed a great employee," she scoffed


    sarcastically and suspected Alfred of choosing the apartment for her with an ulterior motive.N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    She had mistakenly thought that Alec bought a unit after she moved over, but it seemed like it was the


    other way around—Alfred picked the ce for her because Alec lived there.
