To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Conflicted

At La Vie Jen Rose Designs, Jenny's conversation with Jade had just ended when she received a call from Zack. After he finished reporting to her, Jenny asked, "So, he was employed by Yvonne because his sister was seriously ill, and he wanted to use the money to treat his sister?"

"According to the information I've found, that seems to be the case," Zack replied.

Jenny was conflicted. Jonathan was a skilled martial artist, but he had aided Yvonne in her plans, knocking Jenny out and putting her in the room where Steven was killed. As a result, she was nearly framed as a murderer.

She had found it strange that someone as skilled as Jonathan would aid Yvonne, so she asked Zack to investigate Jonathan's background. Little did she know, he had a younger sister who was seriously ill. It suddenly made sense why Jonathan became Yvonne's hitman. It was likely that he was extremely short of money. Knowing that, the anger she had harbored toward him also dissipated.

"Yvonne is really cruel. Although she promised to treat his sister's illness, she didn't pay the hospital a single cent after Jonathan was arrested. Now, the girl is still in the hospital," Zack grumbled. "Wait, so his sister was never treated?" Jenny asked.

"Well, according to the hospital, Jonathan only paid a deposit, saying he would pay the surgery fees soon. However, not only was the payment not made, Jonathan never contacted them again." Jenny fell silent. Sometimes, it was better not to know. Knowing Jonathan's predicament made her feel sorry for him.

As if he knew what she was thinking, Zack said, "Jenny, you aren't considering saving her, are you?" Although he didn't know everything about Jenny, he knew her fairly well as they had grown up together. "Despite what Jonathan did, his sister is innocent," Jenny said. She knew saying that made her sound like some sort of saint, but she genuinely meant it. She couldn't let the girl die on her watch.

Zack was a little frustrated, but he wasn't surprised by her decision. "I knew you would intervene if I told you. It's fine if you want to save her, but at least make Jonathan speak up and confess that Yvonne did it." Frowning. Jenny sighed. "It's not as simple as you think. Jonathan really did kill Steven. Even if he said. Yvonne ordered him to do it, who'd believe him?"

"You're letting him off the hook just like that?" Zack couldn't accept it.

"No, Jonathan will spend the rest of his life in prison. Even if his sister survives, he won't be able to see her." Jenny held the principle that everyone was responsible for their own actions. Jonathan committed a crime, and he paid the price for it. She could not blame his sister for it.

Since she insisted, Zack decided not to say more. "It's up to you. You've always been like this anyway." Jenny had always been kind; it wasn't the first day Zack knew her.

"Great, please help me wire the money to her. You don't need to tell the hospital the truth, just say it's from a charity organization." Jenny didn't want to have anything more to do with Jonathan or his family. Hence, she decided to end things in such a manner. After ending the call, she took a deep breath before she rose from her seat and left the office, putting Jonathan out of her mind.

Zack, on the other hand, didn't think the same. After transferring the money to the hospital, he drove to prison as the situation didn't sit well with him. Even though he couldn't prove that Yvonne was the mastermind, he wanted Jonathan to feel guilty and let him know how wrong his actions were.
