Chapter 21 Do You Have Opinions About This?
“That’s true, but I’m still thankful that you have saved his life.” He added, “I’m Christopher Spade. The
man
in there is my
father.”
*Jenny.” She had a good impression of him. On top of that, the surgery was successful. She was in a
relaxed state.
“Miss Jenny, would you mind telling me about my father’s condition in detail?” Christopher asked a little
embarrassedly.
Jenny nodded and beckoned for him to follow her. “Yes. Follow me to the office.”
As a doctor, it was her duty to explain a patient’s situation to their family. They walked toward the office,
ignoring Alec completely.

Where was Alec?
She turned back, but he was nowhere in sight. When had he gone? Why hadn’t she realized?
“Miss Jenny?” Christopher was puzzled when she stopped. He didn’t know what she was looking for.
She came back to her senses and shook her head. “It’s nothing. Let’s go.”
Outside the hospital, Alec opened the door and sat down. “Go to the Old Mansion.”
“Mr. Faust, is Mr. Spade okay? Was the surgery successful?” Vincent started up the car.
Alec murmured in response. He was not in a good mood.
As his assistant, Vincent noticed at once. He remembered that the person in charge of the surgery was
Jenny. He suspected that Alec’s bad mood was due to being unable to be rid of her.
Hesitation flashed in his eyes, but he finally spoke. “Mr. Faust, have you… really fallen in love with Dr.
Walter?”
He wasn’t deliberately rubbing it in. He merely felt that this sequence of events was simply too comedic
to be true.
Alec made no reply to the question, merely looking up at Vincent. “Do you have an opinion about this?”
“No, I don’t.” Vincent shook his head hurriedly. His heart thumped in fear. “It’s just that you had been
married to her for two years and had never shown any interest in her. Now that you haven’t been
divorced for long…”
He trailed off. He dared not finish his words. He could feel the icy aura emanating from Mr. Faust.
“I’d never seen her, so it’s normal for me to not know her. But what about you, my assistant? You didn’t
know her, either!” he said coldly. If Vincent could recognize Jenny from the start, he and Jenny would not
have had so many miscommunications.
Vincent was a little exasperated. He had suggested going to see what Jenny might need in Faust
Mansion, but Alec had denied the trip, saying there was no need. That was why Vincent did not have the
chance to meet Jenny. But, of course, he could only swallow his words. How could he say them out
loud?

“I was bad at my management,” he said exasperatedly. He knew Mr. Faust was angry, so he didn’t take it
to heart.
Alec wasn’t really blaming it on Vincent, either. He hadn’t allowed him to ask about Jenny. Alec had
never
treated her seriously as his wife. Who would have thought that a day like this would come?
Alec brooded in silence, and Vincent couldn’t hold it in any longer. “Mr. Faust, If you really like Dr. Walter,
you have to understand how she feels about you.”
“What do you mean?” Alec frowned.
“If any woman were ignored by you for two years, only to have you admit your feelings for her now, shel
wouldn’t be able to accept it. So I think that Dr. Walter’s bad attitude toward you is understandable.” He
tried comforting Alec.
Alec’s eyebrows were tightly knitted. Vincent continued. “You’re not just a stranger to her. You’re a
stranger who wasted two years of her youth.”
