To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 292

Chapter 292 Behave Yourself

An angry Jenny burst out laughing at the ridiculousness of the situation. Miller Little was probably the most shameless person she had come across in her life. She couldn't imagine how tough family life was for Joey with such an alcoholic father, and she started feeling bad for the kid.

Miller shot a threatening glare at her during her silence. "Are you paying up or not? If you don't, I'll make him get back to work!" Hearing that, Jenny walked up to him from behind Alec and stared at him coldly. Miller cowered underneath her stare but gritted his teeth and barked, "What can you do? You can't beat me up, can you? Get over here. Punch me!" He pointed at his face provocatively and inched closer to her. He planned to fall to the floor and demand compensation if Jenny punched him.

Jenny rolled her fists and lashed out in the next second. However, instead of punching him, she grabbed him by his collar and lifted him off the ground. "I'm warning you, you'd better not cause trouble for Joey. If you do, I'll see to it that you're crippled for the rest of your life." Her threat caused Miller to start feeling wobbly in the legs. She snickered at him and threw him onto the floor. "Behave yourself."

With that, Alec and Jenny left. Miller stared at them resentfully and clenched his jaw. "Just you wait. I'll not let this go." Although he couldn't enter Joey's boarding school, he could target Jenny-he believed it wasn't hard to deal with a woman.

In the elevator, Jenny was still fuming. Alec shook his head as he watched her. "Why would you be angry at a loser like him? You don't have to dirty your hands as well."

"I'm just angry for Joey. He's such a good kid, but why does he have such a terrible dad?" She was seething in anger. If Miller weren't Joey's dad, she would have taught him a lesson on the spot. "Don't worry about it. I'll talk to Joey's school and make sure that his dad doesn't kick up a fuss there." The boarding school that Alec placed Joey in was different-it was unlikely that Miller could get past the security.

Jenny heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the assurance. "Great. Thank you."

"Why thank me? It's what I should do." He smiled and patted her head. "If you run into jerks like him in the future, leave them to me. I don't want you to dirty your hands."

She froze up when he touched her head, paralyzed for a moment. Thankfully, the elevator bell chimed, and she hurried out of the space in great relief.

"It's late. Rest early," Jenny said to Alec from her door.

He nodded at her with an amused look. "Sure, you too. Good night."

"Yeah. Good night." She entered her apartment and vanished from his sight.

Jenny clutched her chest in her bedroom as she realized her heart was racing uncontrollably. "What's the matter? What's wrong with my silly heart? Alec didn't say much just now, did he?" she wondered as she gently patted her cheeks, only to find them hot to the touch.

She went to the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face. After calming down, she stared at her reflection, water dripping down her face. She mumbled, "Jenny Walter, you're a hot mess!"

She felt even more embarrassed when she was reminded of her words after the divorce. She swore she wouldn't walk back on the decision and declared that she hated people with the surname Faust. "Oh, Jenny, why did you go back on your words?" she sighed, but she could not contain her feelings anymore.
