To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Aren't You Upset?

Jenny was surprised that Joey had guessed something was up. She nodded again. "Yes, actually. It's about your father."

"Him?" Joey frowned. "Did he come to bother you again?"

Jenny shook her head. "He got himself arrested for getting into some trouble."

Joey didn't show an ounce of sadness hearing the news. In fact, he looked glad. "Really? That means he won't be able to find you and cause you any more trouble, right?" "Aren't you upset?" Jenny asked, confused,

"Why would I be? I stopped treating him as my father a long time ago." Miller, the father, had died in Joey's heart a long, long time ago. He even wished the man actually died just so he could live carefreely. Jenny stared at him in shock, which Joey noticed.

"Do you find me cruel for thinking that, Jen?"

Jenny shook her head. "No...I just feel bad for you."

Only those who had been through too much grew numb to pain. No one was born heartless, after all. It was clear Joey was someone who had gone through it.

"Thank you, Jen." Joey smiled. He had been worried Jenny might think he was a sociopath.

Jenny patted his head. "I was concerned the news would affect your mood."

"I know...but I really don't care." Joey wanted nothing more than to be rid of his father right now. Their lunch was soon served.

"Let's eat first, and don't you worry about this. Just focus on your studies."

"I will!" Joey nodded. Yes, he would focus on that from now on.

While they were eating, Jenny kept spooning more food into Joey's plate, telling him to eat more. The boy didn't refuse either. In fact, he was feeling really grateful for her, silently vowing to repay her one day.

Later, after dropping Joey back at school, Jenny headed to the office to discuss her business with Jade. When she was about to leave the office, she saw Felicity, whose face swiftly changed from surprise to indifference.

Jenny didn't pursue her cousin as she left, only quietly asking Jade, "Has she been performing well?" She hadn't seen her after Felicity moved out, and neither did Jade update her, so she had no clue how her cousin had been all this while.

"Pretty well, yeah," Jade answered straightforwardly. "She's eager to learn though she's not as skilled as the rest."

It came as a surprise to Jenny. Good for Felicity for turning over a new leaf.

"But she stays at her own place instead of at the dorms," Jade added. Jenny didn't mind. Felicity was an adult now, and she was capable of making her own decisions.

"So long as she doesn't slack off at work, everything's fine with me," Jenny concluded.

Jade nodded in response. "Don't worry, I'll make sure she doesn't." She didn't have a connection to Felicity, unlike Jenny. If Felicity messed up, Jade wouldn't think twice before kicking her out. Jenny was then escorted downstairs back to her car. "Drive safe. I'll see you soon.

"Alright. Thank you for taking care of the company in my stead," Jenny smiled. She hadn't had to stress about the company much these days, only checking in once in a while.

Jade nodded. "You just focus on your design while I take care of things here."
