Chapter 220 | Could Never Marry Her

Facing his friend, Paul didn’t hide things from him. He told Alec about his situation with Stephanie and

asked, “Do you think I’m wrong?”

“Of course!” Alec responded at once. “If you really like her, you have to pursue her the right way and

make her your girlfriend. And if you don’t like her, quit wasting her time. Now you’re forbidding her from

being your girlfriend, yet you’re not letting her go. I’d call you a motherfucker, but you’re worse than that.”

He had no idea what his friend was thinking. If he liked her, why was he treating her like this? Who could

accept it?

Paul frowned, his expression solemn. “You know what my family is like. I could never marry her.” He

didn’t want things to be this way, but he knew how the Wagners worked. If he got together with

Stephanie, he wouldn’t just be making her miserable; he’d be hurting her too.

Alec grew quiet. The Wagners were much more complicated than the Fausts. Alec could pursue

whomever he wanted, but Paul had no such liberty.

“So you’re planning on keeping her here forever?” Alec asked, frowning. His emotions were jumbled

together.

Paul sighed and looked out the window, lost in thought. “I don’t know, either. All I know is that I don’t want

her to leave.”

“The Wagners are indeed very complicated, but if you like her, you’ll have to remove the threats to her

safety. That’s how it should be.” Alec stared at his friend, not wanting him to walk down the dark path.

But when Paul heard him, he burst into laughter. “Me, liking her? What’s there to like about her? I was

just bored, and she happened to walk into my life. I’m just playing around with her.”

Alec was frustrated at his friend’s nonchalance. “If you don’t like her, I’m going to take her away. Jenny

and her parents are looking for her.”

“Oh, Alec, you know my personality. I’d never let someone go that easily. Not even if I didn’t like them.”

Alec’s face darkened. He held his gaze on Paul. “Must you do this?”

“I know you want to help Jenny because you like her. I get that. But if I’m not letting Stephanie go, no

one’s taking her. Not even you, Alec.” Paul raised the corner of his mouth. Even when faced with Alec,

he was not backing down.

Alec didn’t object. He admitted that what Wagner said was the truth. The Fausts conducted their

business in a straightforward manner. Everything that they did was out in the open. They were not

involved with any of the underworld matters. They did not compare to the Wagners in that aspect.

They stared at each other for a while. Perhaps sensing the anger emanating from Alec, Paul shrugged in

exasperation. “Alright, alright. I’ll let her go for your sake.”

“When?” Alec asked.

“Maybe after a few days. Once she learns to be more submissive,” Paul replied. He wasn’t planning on

letting Stephanie go so quickly.

Alec frowned and was about to speak, but Paul cut him off. “I’m already doing this for you. You’d be

asking too much if you said anything else.”

Alec saw the seriousness in his eyes and understood there was no point in saying anything else. He had

no choice but to let it be.

“Do it as soon as you can if you don’t want the police to find you,” Alec said before he left.

But Paul simply laughed. “Relax. As long as you don’t utter a word, no one will ever find this place.”
