To Be Yours Again By Taylor Chapter 44

Chapter 44 I Won This Time

Max drove Jenny to the Perry Residence.

“Thank you for today,” Jenny said once more.

“You’ve already thanked me a bunch of times. You don’t have to be so polite with me.” Max feigned being upset. “If you want to thank me, treat me to a meal. You promised me that.”

Jenny nodded. “Alright. I’ll treat you.”

“Go on in. Get some rest,” Max urged.

Before she walked away, he said, “I ordered some food for you. You need to eat it.”

“Alright. Thank you.” Jenny gave a hesitant nod. Besides thanking him, anything else she said would seem too much.

She walked through the gates, disappearing from Max’s sight.

Max retracted the smile on his face and leaned against his car, lighting a cigarette. When he was halfway through the cigarette, a car approached and stopped before him.

Max smiled and flung the cigarette to the ground, stamping out the flames. “Looks like you’ve lost to me, Aléc.”

Alec rolled down the windows. His dark eyes were devoid of emotions. “You’re doing all this just to win?”

“Of course.” Max nodded. All he ever wanted was to beat Alec at something for once.

However, anger rose in Alec’s chest. “She’s a human being, not a trophy between us.”

“Of course. If not for you, I might have really admired her. I might even have fallen in love.” A trace of pity. appeared on Max’s face. Too bad that hatred fueled his actions.

“You’re really immature.” Alec moved his car, driving through the gates.

Max shrugged and said nonchalantly, “Immature? Maybe. But what does that matter if I can win against you, Alec?”

Alec got down from his car and went to the elevator. He was irritated by Max’s actions.

He went to his door and was about to open it when his gaze flitted to Jenny’s door. He was stunned-it was ajar. Wasn’t that too careless of her?

He was already at her door. The lights were off.

Alec frowned. Could something have happened?

At the thought of this, he pushed the door open and went in.

Moonlight streamed in through the window. He gave the room a quick scan but couldn’t spot her. In the midst of his worry, a groan of pain sounded from the couch.

“Dr. Walter?” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

No one answered him. Jenny had actually heard him, but the pains in her stomach made her unable to speak.

Alec found the light switch and flicked it on. The person on the couch was Jenny.

Jenny was in so much pain that she groaned and tossed on the couch. Her forehead was covered in

sweat, and her face was pale. She looked like she was about to pass out any minute.

“What’s wrong, Dr. Walter? Where does it hurt?” Alec walked over and asked, kneeling.

“My… my stomach,” she moaned.

“Stomach? Do you have any medicine in the house?” he asked. His eyes were full of worry.

Jenny said nothing, shaking her head. She was out of luck today. She hadn’t eaten today and was about to take her medicine when she realized she had run out. That was why she was in so much pain.

She was about to ask Alec to help her buy some medicine, but before she could speak, Alec got up and disappeared.

Had he left?

How could that be? Did he want revenge? She had terrified him in the elevator last night, threatening to

turn off the flashlight.

Instantly, Jenny regretted being so devious last night. She would die of pain with Alec gone.
