Chapter 897 Am I That Sort of Person?
Not long after, Gilbert had the food prepared. Everyone sat at the table and began to eat.
The atmosphere was better than Jenny expected. The table was pleasant as long as Alec
and Evan kept their mouths shut.
It was mostly Zack telling the story of how he and Janet got to know each other and fell in
love. Jenny felt envious. It was all she wanted. To love the person she had feelings for
without all the complicated emotions.
Alec saw the envious look in her eyes and felt upset. It was his fault. Forget what
happened before their divorce. They hadn’t interacted and were basically strangers. What
he regretted was becoming her boyfriend and then failing to cherish what they had. That

After dinner, they were in no rush to leave. Gilbert ushered Zack and Evan to the study,
obviously meaning for a company meeting.
Jenny didn't know what it was about. She didn't know what Evan, a part of Walter Inc,
could discuss with Gilbert.
However, she didn't worry. She believed that they wouldn't do anything to harm Walter
Inc.
She stood on the second-floor balcony, staring at the moon in the sky. Her mind was adrift.
"What are you thinking about?" Alec had walked behind her, following her gaze.
"Nothing much. I just thought that the night sky looked pretty." Jenny didn't look at him,
fixing her gaze on the moon.
Then, she felt a weight around her shoulders. Alec had placed his coat around her.
"It's pretty. But not as pretty as you are." Alec stood next to her.
Jenny looked over at him. Under his coat, Alec had on a brown sweatshirt. He was
physically gifted. A simple sweatshirt looked elevated on him.
She then looked at his face, remembering what it felt like when they first knew each other.
Now that they were more familiar with each other, it only increased his charm.
Especially those eyes of his. More than ever, she could just drown in them.
When Alec turned to look at her, he saw Jenny looking at him in a daze.
He smiled and leaned closer. "What's up? Fallen in love?"
Jenny blushed at once. She retracted her gaze. ’Narcissist.”
"Yeah. You called me that when we were just getting to know each other.” Alec
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmremembered her calling him a narcissist back then. He was so mad before. Now he
thought it was one of the few beautiful moments they shared.
It wasn't too long ago, anyway. This was their first winter together, but Alec felt like he had
known her forever. Their feelings ran so deep that it was indescribable.
Jenny remembered it, too, and she wasn't embarrassed by it. ’You were a narcissist. You
were so arrogant; you looked punchable."
Alec was a narcissist now, but he was more reserved than before.
"Why didn't you punch me, then?" he asked.
"Am I the type to lash out so easily?" Although Jenny was exasperated by his bold manner
back then, she didn't feel the need to punch him. Besides, Alec had come to find her so
that she could treat Faye Lawrence. He was part of her patient's family. As a doctor, she
couldn't lash out at him.
