Chapter 153 Don’t Even Think About It
To their surprise, however, no one did anything. Nothing happened to them all the way home. It made Alec wonder if he had been overly cautious.
When Gilbert was busy in the kitchen, Alec received a call from Vincent. Despite the report he received, he was still anxious. After hanging up, he returned to the living room and shook his head at Jenny.
Jenny breathed a sigh of relief. A lot had happened recently, and she really didn’t want anything bad to happen again.
“Let me help you.” Jenny walked into the kitchen and helped Gilbert make dinner.
In the living room, Alec and Zack, who were not very familiar with each other, were left alone. Although Zack was not as hostile toward Alec as Gilbert, he wasn’t very nice to him, either. He gave Alec a look and said, “There’s no point pretending to be courteous. Jenny isn’t superficial.”
“Well, you’re right.” Alec didn’t want to argue with him. After all, he had nothing against Zack. Plus, he was Jenny’s brother, so Alec would be stupid to offend him.
Seeing no reaction from Alec, Zack was both puzzled and annoyed. “There’s no way we’ll allow Jenny to end up with you.”
“I will work hard,” Alec said calmly.
In the face of his calm demeanor, Zack wondered if Alec even understood what he was saying.
“I heard that you will be starting your own company soon. How is the preparation going? Do you need help?” Alec asked suddenly, looking at him with a smile.
Zack immediately refused and replied angrily, “No! Gilbert will help me solve it.”
While he was currently facing a problem, there was no way he could ask Alec for help. Alec had wasted two years of Jenny’s youth, and Zack thought he was a saint for not beating him up.
“You need to realize that this is not Gilbert’s forte. He only knows about artificial intelligence and doesn’t know much about cyber security in which your company will be specializing,” Alec said. He was well- versed in the jargon, which made it seem like he was very familiar with what Zack was doing.
Zack understood where he came from, and he was inevitably worried. Feeling a little baffled, he asked, ” What are you trying to say? You want to help me?”
“There are many companies under the Faust Group. We have quite a formidable information security team, so I can help you a lot more,” Alec said. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Although Zack was aware of how mighty the Faust Group was, he didn’t agree immediately. Instead, het gave Alec a suspicious glance. “What do you want? Are you trying to win me over?”
“Well, it’s not wrong if you put it that way,” Alec said, chuckling instead of denying it. Zack frowned when. Alec continued to say, “Anyway, you’re also Jenny’s brother. After I remarry her, you’ll be my brother. Since we’re family, surely I’ll help you.”
Zack nodded happily before he caught himself. Something didn’t sit right with him.
“Remarry? Jenny wants to remarry you?”
“Sooner or later,” Alec said softly as if he was afraid Jenny would hear him.
He didn’t want to make Jenny unhappy after all the progress their relationship had made.
Zack frowned in response. Appearing rather upset, he said, “Don’t even think about it! I don’t care if Jenny
agrees, but Gilbert and I won’t!”
“But your company…” Alec pursed his lips and fell silent.
Nonetheless, Zack understood what he meant. He glared at him furiously. “Even if it means I won’t start a company, I won’t be enticed by your offer!”
“Oh? Alright then.” Alec spread his hands nonchalantly.
