Chapter 854 You Stalker
Unexpectedly, Alec shook his head, his expression solemn. "If Xavier is dead, Luke won't
be able to cause much trouble. And if two people from the Faust family die at once, you
won’t be able to withstand Zeke's wrath."
The head of the Faust family wasn't to be trifled with. It wouldn't matter if Evan's men
were brought in from abroad; if Zeke got serious, not a single one of them would be
spared, and Evan himself might even end up in trouble too.
"That's true." Evan understood the reasoning as well. He just wanted to see if Alec was
intentionally trying to get him killed. However, the result surprised him.
"Don't worry. We're working with each other now. I won't knowingly send you to your
death.’ Alec glanced at him, once again able to tell what he was thinking.
Evan sneered coldly and said, "I find it more desirable to work with Xavier to kill you rather
than help you kill him." Alec was even more detestable than Luke, and the threat he posed

"Is that so? Are you really going to do that?" Alec remained calm, smiling as he looked at
Evan, showing no signs of panic.
Evan felt a little uneasy seeing the way he behaved. He couldn't help but think Alec was
hiding something and hadn't revealed all his cards yet.
His gaze fell on the restaurant entrance. Noticing Jenny and Luke were coming out, Evan
immediately wound up his car window and said, "Send me the details." He then started
the car engine and left swiftly.
By the time Alec realized what was going on, Jenny and Luke had already reached the
entrance of the restaurant and naturally spotted him standing there.
They both frowned, especially Luke, who was extremely peeved at seeing him. ’What're
you doing here, Alec."
"Just passing by," Alec responded.
"Passing by? Don’t tell me you're stalking Jenny," Luke sneered, finding it hard to believe
such a coincidence.
Sure enough, the moment he suggested that, Jenny was visibly displeased. She'd been
suspecting Alec was stalking her, and the constant feeling of being watched made her feel
very uncomfortable. She felt she was deprived of the freedom to do anything without
falling under his gaze.
However, she held back her anger in Luke's presence. Instead, she told him, "Mr. Luke, you
should head back. I hope we can work well with each other in the future."
"I'll drive you back." Luke didn't want Jenny and Alec to be alone together. He'd finally
made some progress with Jenny and didn't want Alec to interfere.
Unfortunately for Luke, Jenny had no interest in him at all. If it hadn’t been for the sake of
their future collaboration, she wouldn't have agreed to have a meal with him in the first
place. "There's no need. I want to stroll around some more," Jenny said.
Luke nodded and left, knowing that Jenny was just placating him, but he didn't want to
offend her either. After all, he'd barely made any progress, so it didn't make sense to piss
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher off right away.
As he walked past Alec, he whispered, "Jenny is mine!’
After saying that, he left, not caring about Alec's reaction. He was determined to win Jenny
over.
Alec couldn't help but smile when he heard his words, showing no signs of anger at all. He
was pretty darn sure Jenny wouldn't like him anyway.
When he came back to his senses, Jenny was standing right in front of him. "Have you
been stalking me?"
"No." Alec shook his head. Fearing she wouldn't believe him, he quickly explained, "I was
keeping an eye on Luke. I heard that he was having dinner with you, and I was worried, so
I came to check.’
"Really?" Jenny was skeptical but also thought it was reasonable for Alec to have someone
watching Luke, considering the chaos within the Fausts.
Alec nodded. "Yes, I know you don't like being followed. I wouldn't deliberately provoke
you."
