Chapter 316 Will You Fulfill My Wishes?
Jenny felt as if a thousand needles were pricking her. She could guess what Alec was going to say, and
her palms grew sweaty.
“Alec…”
“Hear me out, Jenny.” Alec cut her off, and Jenny pursed her lips, not saying anything else. “To be frank,
I sometimes wonder if destiny is at play with us. But I’ve never figured out the answer.” He smiled like he
was laughing at himself. “And then I thought, is that really important?” He shook his head. “I don’t think it
is. Because right now, I like you. A lot. I’m sure that you’re the one I’ve been. looking for. I appeared by
your side even if you hated me in the beginning because I knew that if I lost you again, I’d never find
someone else that I liked so much.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlec was stili talking, but Jenny no longer had the heart to listen. She knew what would happen next but
hadn’t thought of her answer. Could she and Alec truly start over? Could she really believe this man, who
had once neglected her and caused their marriage to fail?
She couldn’t come up with an answer just yet. She wished that Alec would stop and keep his words to
himself, so she would have more time to think.
Alec didn’t stop. He thought the time had come. “Jenny, please give me a chance. Let me start by being
your boyfriend.” He didn’t propose immediately because he knew that it was too sudden. Jenny would
never be able to accept it. He also wanted to take things slowly. They could start off by being boyfriend
and girlfriend.
Jenny looked at Alec; he was staring hopefully into her eyes. She couldn’t help breaking out into a sweat.
“Do I need to give you an answer right now?”
“Don’t overthink, Jenny. Could we just go with the flow?” Alec was extremely nervous. He was afraid that
Jenny would reject him. If he were to be rejected now, he didn’t know if he would be able to muster up
the courage to ask her out again.
Jenny bit her lip and looked around her, discovering the lights had turned dim. Roses surrounded them,
showing that early preparations had been made. She pointed at the roses that filled the dining room,
smiling as she asked, “How long have you been preparing these?”
“Since the car crash,” Alec answered. He was a little embarrassed. “It was Vincent’s idea. I have no
experience in this department.”
Jenny wanted to laugh. Who would think that this was the formidable Mr. Faust? He was now as nervous
as a child.
“Did he tell you how to confess, too?” Jenny was about to laugh.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlec hurriedly explained, “I honestly didn’t know what to do, so I made him come up with a few Ideas,
and I chose the best one.” He chose this because he thought it was quiet and would suit Jenny’s
personality. “You can tell me if anything is lacking. I’ll make it up to you.” He was in a panic; if Jenny
thought he was insincere, he would stop breathing.
Jenny could tell how antsy he was and laughed.
Alec was stunned, but he turned serious once more. “Miss Jenny, I’m in the middle of a
confession. Could you take this a little more seriously?”
“Alright.” Jenny did her best to hold in her laughter.
“Really?” Alec was exasperated. “So, will you fulfill my wishes?” He was so nervous he could throw

Jenny stroked her chin and looked at Alec with interest. “What would you do if I refused?”
