Chapter 1016 He was Taunting Him
"I just moved in. I'll be your neighbor from now on." He didn't want Jenny to put all of her
effort into taking care of Evan. It didn't matter if she had no feelings for him now. They
could develop in the future.
In Alec's eyes, after what had happened the previous night, Jenny was already his. Evan
was trying to fight him for her. Well, that would depend on whether he could
Jenny was speechless. Alec was on the second floor of the villa next to them. He wasn't
kidding.
"You've got too much time on your hands, Mr. Faust." Evan sneered, suppressing the anger
in his chest.
"Not really. I'm just rich." Although Alec still hadn't inherited the Fausts, money was not a
problem.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis words incensed Evan. Alec was rich; that was true. Evan busted his ass off overseas,
sacrificing his life for money, and was still nowhere as rich as Alec.
Sometimes he was amazed by how unfair life could be.
Alec was born into a more affluent family than he was. That was fine because Evan could
fight for the same things later on. But Alec was still better at earning money.
Although Wagner Group was controlled by Paul on the surface, Evan knew that it actually
still belonged to Alec. On top of that, Alec had assets all over the globe. Even if he didn't
inherit the Fausts, he was still much richer than him. Besides, it was still possible that the
Fausts would be given to Alec.
Evan snorted and said indignantly, "It's no wonder you've got that rich stink.

"That's not very nice, Mr. Clarke. You've earned quite a bit over the years as well." Alec
looked at him coldly. He knew what Evan had done overseas.
At least Alec's ways of earning money were honest. Evan's were dirty.
If it weren't for the promise he made during Xavier's murder to not tell Jenny about what
Evan had done, Alec would have dragged out every skeleton in Evan's closet.
Evan could feel that Alec was threatening him, and he glared at him. ’ Jenny, I'm feeling
unwell. Wheel me into my room.'
"Unwell? Where? Do you need a doctor to examine you?" Jenny was worried.
Evan shook his head. "There's no need. I'm just feeling light-headed. Some rest will
suffice."
"That's great. You have to let me know if you're feeling sick." Jenny pushed him back into
the villa. She had no time to entertain Alec right now. After all, no one had told Alec to
infuriate Evan. Although she hadn't understood what was said between them, she sensed
Alec's animosity toward the man.
She knew the reason behind it. She couldn't blame Alec entirely. However, Evan was a

When they left, Alec saw Evan look back to smile at him. It was a smile full of glee.
He was taunting him. So what if Alec had money? So what if he had moved in next door?
Jenny was still by Evan's side.
Evan's actions were indeed infuriating. Alec gnashed his teeth. He had to stop himself
from rushing forward to punch him.
After sending Evan to his room, Jenny went back to her bedroom. While she lay in her bed
in a daze, something knocked on her window.
She was on the second floor.
She got up apprehensively. The next second, she saw Alec's smile.
As luck would have it, her bedroom faced Alec's study directly. He was currently using a
pole to knock on her window.
