Chapter 96 What Are You Doing Here?

Alec slept fitfully that night. In his dreams, he was back on the day he and Jenny got their marriage certificate. This time, however, instead of his grandfather arranging everything, Alec went to the town hall to get the certificate himself. He met Jenny there in his dreams.

Unlike how they didn’t see each other for the two years they were married, everything turned out

differently in his dreams after their marriage. However, Alec soon realized it was merely a dream when he woke up.

At the hospital, performing surgery in the morning, Jenny’s afternoon was relatively free, and she spent it organizing medical records in the office. In the middle of organizing, she received a phone call from Old Mr. Faust inviting her to the birthday banquet.

“Jenny, I only celebrate my birthday once every ten years. You wouldn’t miss it, right?” he asked.

“I’ll be there on time, Grandpa,” Jenny replied.

“That’s great,” the old man said, content with her answer. He looked forward to the moment his grandson. and Jenny met. He believed that Alec would surely take a liking to her once they met. However, unbeknownst to him, Alec had already met Jenny two days after their divorce and had taken a liking to her without realizing she was his ex-wife.

After ending the call, Jenny was about to return to work when there was a knock at the door. To her surprise, it was Max who was standing outside.

“What are you doing here?” she asked, looking puzzled.

Max smiled and replied, “I just wanted to ask if you liked the dress.”

Since Alec seemed rather unhappy the night before, Max decided he better act fast.

Jenny thought about the dress Max had selected-it looked nice, but it wasn’t her preferred style. Nevertheless, as it was a gift, she didn’t want to be too picky.

“It’s quite nice, how much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you,” she said. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

“You always treat me like a stranger,” Max responded unhappily, feeling that no matter what he did, he couldn’t win over Jenny’s heart.

“No, I just ” Jenny began to explain, but Max cut her off.

“Just consider it as the wages for agreeing to be my date. You wouldn’t turn down your salary, right?” he asked, trying to make light of the situation.

Jenny didn’t have an answer to that, so she simply replied, “Okay, thank you.”

Max was relieved that she had finally accepted the gift. He leaned against Jenny’s desk, looking at her intently. The intensity of his gaze gave her goosebumps.

“If you have something to say, just say it. I can’t work with you looking at me like that,” she said, feeling a

little uncomfortable.

“It’s alright I just missed you and wanted to come to see you,” Max replied. However, Jenny was unmoved by his words and instead felt put off by the greasiness of the situation, especially with Max’s gaze making her fee! both physically and mentally uncomfortable. Her discomfort was so evident that even Max felt a little ashamed.

“It seems you’re not fond of this type of boyfriend,” he said.

Jenny forced a laugh, saying, “Just act like a normal person, would you?”

“Okay.” Max nodded and assumed his previous demeanor.

“By the way, when exactly do you need me to accompany you?” Jenny asked. Since she was attending

Old Mr. Faust’s birthday party the next day, she was worried it might clash with Max’s event.

“Tomorrow,” Max replied.

The situation she was afraid of actually happened.

“In that case, I’m sorry, I might not be able to go with you,” she said apologetically.

“Why?” Max asked, so surprised that his voice squeaked a little.

“I also have an event to attend tomorrow,” Jenny explained helplessly.

Max was quiet for a moment, then asked, “Is it Mr. Faust’s birthday?”

“You know about that?” Jenny asked in surprise.

“Who in Parrington doesn’t?” Max replied, smiling. “What a coincidence! I was going to ask you to accompany me to his birthday party. It’s the same event.”

Jenny was initially shocked, but then it all made sense. No ordinary event would garner so much of Max’s attention. In addition, the only important event happening recently was Old Mr. Faust’s birthday.
