    Chapter 1221 Stop Right There


    After Alec ended the call, he quickly went to check out what Vincent had said was blowing up on the


    Inte. When he saw the photo, he couldn’t help butugh.


    When Jenny saw himughing, she was puzzled and asked, “What’s so funny?”


    “Check it out online yourself.’ Alec didn’t tell her. He thought it would be more interesting for Jenny to


    discover it herself.


    Jenny didn’t hesitate and quickly did as he suggested. Soon, she found out what Alec wasughing


    about. She saw the photo and thought it was quite beautiful. She immediately tapped on the “Save”


    button without hesitation; it was like she did it out of instinct.


    “That was a nice photo.” Jenny put away her phone and expressed her opinion on the matter.


    Alec walked over and sat next to her. He asked, “Vincent called just now and asked if I wanted to


    retract it. What do you think?”


    “It’s up to you. I don’t care.” They were already boyfriend and girlfriend. In addition, the news about


    them wasn’t nderous in any way, so Jenny didn’t really mind.


    Alec smiled when he heard her say that, knowing what she meant. “Then we’ll just let it be.”


    As a result, their photo circted around the Inte for the whole night until the next morning before it


    was reced by newer, more pressing news. The attention it received decreased significantly by then.


    Jenny didn’t pay attention to these things but noticed that many people were looking at her when she


    went to the hospital.


    When Pete came to find Jenny, she’d just finished seeing thest patient. After the patient left, she


    looked up and noticed Pete standing next to her. ncing at him, shemented, “You don’t seem to


    be doing well.”


    Pete looked tired and even had some stubble. He was unlike the Pete she’d seen before.


    “My father was arrested. Isn’t it normal for me to not be doing well?” Pete asked rhetorically, sitting


    across from her.


    Jenny looked at him, unable to tell if he was genuinely worried about Eric or just acting.


    After a long silence, Pete suddenly asked, “Do you think…he will be sentenced to death?”


    In fact, even if Eric were sentenced to life imprisonment, Pete wouldn’t feel guilty. He thought his father


    deserved that punishment.


    But if it was the death penalty…


    Despite all the hatred he had for that man, he still didn’t want him to die.

    Jenny knew what he meant but didn’t want to give him any hope. “He’s definitely going to die.”


    Pete pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.


    “Although he was your father, his hands were stained with blood, so he deserves death,” Jenny added.


    Pete understood what she meant and sighed heavily. ‘I know, but I haven’t gotten over it yet.”


    “I heard that he’d already handed over all the affairs of the Dafoes to you before he was caught. That


    meant he was aware of what the oue would be. You don’t need to feel sad for him,” Jenny said.


    Pete nodded. “I know. I was just asking casually.’


    “Why did youe today, then? Our coboration is over, so I don’t think there’s a need for us to meet


    again.’ Jenny’s gaze was sharp and unfriendly.


    Pete smiled lightly and felt that Jenny’s change of attitude came all too fast. “I still need to testify in


    court to put the nail in the coffin. So, how can our coboration be consideredplete?”


    “Even if you don’t testify, Eric is already doomed. If you go, it’s your personal choice to exact revenge


    against him. Whether you go or not is up to you.” Jenny smiled at him. Pete hated Eric immensely. If he


    missed this opportunity, there wouldn’t be a chance for him to get his revenge again.


    Pete looked at Jenny, silently acknowledging how intelligent she was. “You know, you’re quite a fine


    woman. Why don’t we…”


    “Stop right there. I’m not interested in you.” Jenny ruthlessly rejected him.
