Chapter 923 Keep Watching Them
"Sounds fruitful." Jenny smiled.
Evan beamed. "What about you? What've you been up to all these years?"
"Me?" Jenny pointed at herself. ’I'm sure Gilbert filled you in with everything. I didn't get
up to much either."
Evan disagreed, though. Jenny's life was much more colorful than his, what with her
marriage, divorce, then relationship with Alec Faust, in that exact order.
But he didn't mention it. He wouldn't pry if Jenny didn't want to talk about it.
Their conversation continued until twilight, then Evan went to the kitchen to make dinner.
Jenny's offer of help was swiftly turned down-she was even asked to make herself at home

Evan finished preparing dinner in half an hour, with two mains and two sides immediately
placed on the table. Jenny gave him a thumbs up, in awe of his cooking skills.
The two were just about to eat when the doorbell rang.
Jenny's heart sank briefly. It wasn't Alec, was it?
"I'll get it." Evan went to open the door before Jenny could stand up.
To their surprise, it was a delivery guy.
"Ms. Jenny Walter? Here's your food delivery, miss." The man gave Evan the container of
food, then turned to leave without questioning much.
Evan placed the food on the table and gazed at Jenny inquisitively.
She glanced at the restaurant from where the food was from, already guessing who
might've ordered food delivery for her.
"Were you worried that my cooking wouldn't be up to your standards or that I wouldn't
make enough?" Evan huffed a laugh, surprised Jenny would order more food.
Jenny smiled, telling a white lie. *1 forgot to tell you, actually. I ordered this earlier today
for dinner."
"Really?" Evan cocked his head, not buying it one bit.
Jenny nodded, avoiding his eyes. "Why don't you sit down first? I'll put this in the fridge for
breakfast tomorrow.’
She set the delivery in the fridge and then returned to the table. Neither brought it up
again as if it'd never happened.
In the meantime, a text message showed up on Alec's phone, informing him of his

him. "Any word from the Fausts?"
"No, sir," Vincent answered.
"Keep watching them. We can't have them try anything with Jenny."
Vincent nodded, knowing just how important she was to his boss. "Just Zeke Faust, sir?
What about Yakov Faust?"
Alec hadn't seemed to be bothered about the brothers one bit, though Vincent didn't
approve. It was all the more important right now to keep an eye out on all sides.
"He's not gonna do anything for the time being." Yakov was a smart man. If he had no
reason to take action, he wouldn't, especially when watching Alec struggle with Zeke was
the wise move.
