To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 1299

Chapter 1299 He Won't Get Involved in My Life

Alec's gaze was scorching. Jenny found herself unable to look away after they locked eyes.

There was a change in the air-it was filled with chemistry and passion. Before she could

make sense of it, she felt him kissing her on the lips. It was a light peck, but he lingered

for a little longer.

Her phone rang at the wrong time. Alec almost wanted to tear the caller into pieces.

Pulled back to reality, she pushed him away embarrassedly. 'Til take the call."

He was moody and silent. She could tell he was pissed, but she had to take the call. After

she gathered herself, she checked her phone and saw that it was Zack, so she picked up

without hesitation.

"Jenny! Janet is missing!" He sounded anxious over the phone. She was caught by

surprise. She had just resolved Janet's family trouble. Why did Janet go missing right after?

"Calm down. I'll go to you." She hung up, scooped up her coat, and prepared to leave. Alec

followed along irritably. He couldn't stay out of it because Zack was Jenny's family. "I'll go

alone. You should rest." Jenny hoped he could rest at home because he was busier than

her.

Instead of listening to her, he was already in the driver's seat. "Stop nagging. Let's go and

take a look." She said no more, and they departed for the hospital.

Meanwhile, in the hospital room, Zack was staring blankly at a letter in his hand. He never

expected to wake up to Janet's absence and the letter she left by his pillow. She wrote that

she was not a good match for him and that he deserved better. Therefore, she chose to

leave and asked that he stop looking for her.

That was utterly ridiculous to Zack. Why would she think so? She was the perfect woman

for him.

When Jenny arrived, she found Zack spacing out by the edge of his bed. Perhaps, he was

too shocked to come up with a response. He didn't even look for Janet and opted to call

Jenny for help instead.

"Zack, what happened?" she asked. He handed her the letter, which she skimmed through

speechlessly. "Did you not tell her I will settle her family trouble?"

"I told her." He thought Janet had taken his words seriously, but she seemed to have

shrugged it off.

Jenny sighed, thinking that she should have hurried to the hospital and told Zack and Janet

after she had settled the score with Janet's family. "Don't worry. I'll get someone to look for

her. She has nowhere to go within Bardoff City, so we'll find her in no time," she comforted

Zack. Not long after, she and Alec sent some men to search for Janet. With their combined

capacities, there was no one they couldn't locate within the city.

"How about Gilbert? Did you not call him?" she asked.

Zack flashed her a bitter smile. "Gilbert said he won't get involved in my life anymore. He

said that he's unconcerned about Janet's whereabouts."

Dumbfounded, Jenny realized that Gilbert must have been hurt after what she said to him.

That was why Gilbert had not shown up at the hospital for a few days. Even when Zack

called him, he declared he didn't want to be involved.

Oh, whatever. Jenny decided to go to Gilbert's and clear the air once they found Janet.
