Chapter 558 Did You Give Up?
Alec and Jenny made their way out of Parrington Airport. Back in his territory, Alec had arranged for them to be
picked up outside.
"You wanna go back to your home first?"no.velxo he asked once they were safe in the car.
"Yeah. That'd be best.' Jenny nodded. As worried about Stephanie as she was, she couldn't make any sudden moves
lest Paul overreacted. It might get harder to rescue Stephanie if that happened. no.velxo Plus, she hadn't settled
her resignation at the hospital yet.
They soon reached Perry Residence. Jenny stepped out and turned to ask Alec, 'Aren't you gonna rest up first?"
"Nah. I still need to look at things at the office. I'll pick you up for dinner later." Alec couldn't rest now that they were
going to move Faust Group headquarters to Bardoff City. They had deep roots here in Parrington that needed

Jenny knew about it, too, and was concerned about him. "You really don't have to do this, you know. Parrington isn't
so bad, really.'
"It is not so bad, but...there'lI be a lot more distance between you and me.’ Obviously, staying was the most
convenient option, no.velxo but he couldn't bear to part with Jenny.
Jenny blinked in surprise, then smiled. ’Take care then.'
She didn't encourage him to stay because if one of them stayed and the other went to Bardoff City, their
relationship might not work at all.
Additionally, long distances would only breed additional problems, besides the fact that they were already from
different family backgrounds.
Especially if Alec's workaholism got in the way of their communication.
"I will." Alec nodded, glad that Jenny wasn't telling him to stay anymore. To him, it meant Jenny wanted to be in a
relationship with him, too, so he needed to go to Bardoff City with her at all costs.
He soon left for his office while Jenny returned to her apartment. She had missed this place.
Not even an hour since she came home, someone rang her doorbell. When she opened the door, her face fell.
"What are you doing here? Isn't the great no.velxo Mr. Walter busy with work?' she quipped.
Graham lowered his head slightly. "I'm sorry for what I said this morning, Jenny. I shouldn't intrude on your personal
business."
It was the first time he had lowered himself to this stance. But it couldn't be helped-he needed to do this to receive
Jenny’s forgiveness. Otherwise, he might never see her again. He really didn't want that to happen.
Jenny bit her lip, not saying anything.
"But I didn't mean to intrude. I just wanted to open your eyes to the possibilities. I'm old, and I've more life

turn out well even with a second chance."
Jenny met his gaze now. no.velxo "Did you give up when all those people tried to persuade you from being with my
mother?”
"No," Graham answered firmly.
"You didn't give up because you knew that no matter how tough things might be for both of you, you still wanted to
be with each other,' Jenny replied, hoping Graham could see where she was coming from.
She couldn't deny her feelings for Alec, but just because she didn't want to be in a relationship with him right now
didn't mean she didn't like him.
"Jenny, I..." Graham wanted to explain.
"If nothing I say is going to change how you feel, then you can leave now. I can decide what I want to do with my
life on my own.'
No matter what life tossed at her, Jenny would always find a way forward.
