To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 280

Chapter 280 You're Hopeless

Hearing that, she almost giggled at Paul's hubris. "Did Alec tell you that I'm petty?" Smiling, she looked him in the eye and said coldly, "What if I told you I wanted to make her pay? What will you do to me?" Paul's expression sank. A murderous gleam flashed across his eyes. "You'd better not challenge me."

"Paul Wagner!" Stephanie was at her limits and jumped out to shield Jenny. "If you dare lay a finger on her, I'll fight you!"

"Get out of my way. This is none of your business." Paul was seething, but Stephanie stood her ground, determined to give her all.

Jenny pulled her aside and smiled. "Don't worry. He can't do anything to me." She looked at Paul, hoping that he'd back down. "Paul Wagner, you shouldn't forget that I am holding the evidence of your family's appalling doings."

He merely smirked without care. "You're too naive. After the last incident, your evidence is no longer effective. Why don't you try to bring it on?" He would never let Jenny hold evidence against him. Since he had erased the evidence early on, he had nothing to fear.

She was unsurprised to hear that. "Oh, is that so? No wonder you're so confident."

He replied, "I'll give you one last chance to make an offer."

When Stephanie saw that Jenny seemed to be considering his words, she got anxious that Jenny might agree to Paul's demand.

Amid the tense confrontation, Alec entered the room and instantly picked up on the tension. He quickly scanned the faces of Paul and Jenny, and he understood the reason. Walking up to Jenny, he glared at Paul. "I'm warning you. Be nice to Jenny."

Paul chuckled. "Alec, you're putting your chick before your friends."

"I almost got into huge trouble because I helped you last time. I won't help you this time around." Alec stood firmly on Jenny's side.

Flabbergasted, Paul stared at the two. "Okay, I admit that it's Marigold's fault this time. How about I get her to apologize and compensate you for the damage? You don't have to send her to jail. She's so young!"

With Alec's help, he might stand a chance to save Marigold from serving time. His attitude softened a little. Plus, Marigold was one of the few family members who were close to him. If he failed to even protect her, no one in the family would take him seriously.

Alec looked at Jenny and waited for her to speak. Still, she couldn't let this go. She turned to Marigold. "I don't understand at all. Why would you be angry at me just because Gilbert doesn't like you? Do you need to take my life for that?"

"Gilbert would have fallen for me if you didn't stand in the way." Marigold looked pitiful.

Jenny snickered at the ridiculous idea. "You're hopeless." Then, she turned to Paul. "She's your little sister. Don't you think there's something wrong with her head? If I were you, I would make her serve her sentence. Perhaps, she'll be a bit wiser when she's released."

Paul was definitely upset when Jenny humiliated his sister. To him, that was akin to offending the whole Wagner Family's name, but he held back and didn't refute her. Instead, he said to Marigold, "I wonder how you had the guts to plan a murder."
