To Be Yours Again By Taylor

Chapter 14 Inevitable
“He’s coming! He’s coming!” Jenny thought.
Jenny had already heard the increasingly proximate sound of footsteps coming from the door. She
became more and more anxious with every step. She just wanted to disappear. Trying to stay calm, she looked up again, ready t
o face Alec. However, only Warren was there in front of her.
Where was Alec?
Why didn’t he come? Was he standing behind?
Jenny stretched her neck to check behind Warren, but nobody was there.
“Where’s that fellow?” Old Mr. Faust’s face fell. When he noticed Warren was the only person
who came, he already had a bad feeling.
“Mr. Alec said there was an emergency. He will come and see you later,” Warren couldn’t do anything either. Alec said he wanted
to leave. He couldn’t possibly stop him.
“Bastard!”
Old Mr. Faust threw a fit. He smashed the ground with
his walking stick. “What’s so important that he couldn’t stay for a meal? He’s deliberately trying to piss me off!”
“Mr. Faust...”
“Grandpa, don’t be mad. You need to be mindful of your health,” Jenny comforted him. Knowing that Alec had left, Jenny was reli
eved.
At the Lawrence’s. When Alec arrived, Faye’s parents were taking care of her in her room. They immediately left the room to give
the two of them privacy when they saw him.
“Auntie called me and said you’re not feeling well. What’s wrong? Why didn’t you go to the hospital?” he asked.
“I’m fine. My mom was just making a fuss.” Faye felt a little embarrassed. She continued, “Sorry for making you come. My bad.”

“No worries. I promised your brother to take good care of you.” He stared at Faye. “Are you sure you’re okay? Why don’t we go v
isit the hospital?”
“I’m really okay. I know my own body.” Faye shook her head, feeling slightly guilty.
“If that’s the case, I’m going to head back to the Old
Mansion now. My grandpa is still waiting for me to have dinner with him.” After he finished speaking, he prepared to make a mov
e.
“Alec!”
Faye suddenly called out to him with tears in her eyes. “If it wasn’t for my brother’s request, would you even have noticed me?”
Alec silently looked at her. After some time, he finally answered, “Have a good rest and recuperate. Stop thinking about all this n
onsense.”
“Alec, I...”
“Alright, I’m going. Rest well, and take care.” After that, he left the room.
When Faye’s parents saw that Alec had left the room so early, they started to panic. “Alec, why don’t you

accompany Faye a while longer? She has been asking about you.‘
Alec’s eyes swept across them with a cold gaze as if he could see right through them.
“Take good care of Faye. If something happens to her, the Lawrence family will cease to exist.
Understood?” he said coldly.
Before Anthony died, he had only asked Alec to care for Faye. He had never mentioned these two people.
Mr. Lawrence repeatedly nodded. “We will take good care of Faye.”

He understood what Alec meant.
“Good,” Alec got up to leave.
“What about the collaboration?” Mr. Lawrence said through gritted teeth.
Alec replied while walking out of the door, “I’ll get
someone to send the contract over tomorrow.” “Alright, alright. We will surely not let you
down.” Mr. Lawrence smiled happily, as did Mrs. Lawrence. Only Faye, who was standing upstairs, pulled a long face. She looked
ask Alec for another collaboration? Hasn’t he given you guys enough?”
“What do you know? A one–time deal could never compare to continuous collaboration. As long as
we work with Faust Group, we will never have to worry
about money.” Mr. Lawrence shot her a glance. He felt that his daughter was not bright at all.
Faye was so angry that her tears were about to fall. “Have you guys
ever thought about how I would look in front of Alec by doing all this?”
