Chapter 405 Damn Him!

Too far? Not to Alec. His eyes brimmed with emotion. "It's not what you think, Jenny."

"Oh?" Jenny sneered. "It's not what you think between Christopher and me, either. She wasn't lying but couldn't say the same about Alec.

"You just want to piss me off, don't you?" Alec growled.

Jenny glared at him, finding him unbearable right now. In her mind. Alec had done wrong in the first place.

"Damn him!" she cursed internally.

Neither of them said anything else, stubbornly maintaining their temper.

After a long while, Alec said slowly, "I'll explain everything to you in time, Jenny."

"Explain what?" What was there to explain? They'd already broken up, no?

Why didn't Alec explain before that happened? Expecting Jenny to wait longer for whatever Alec would reveal was outrageous.

Alec started to speak but stopped. He didn't want Jenny to worry about his issue with Mortimer or get herself in that man's sight. It'd be strange to see Jenny worry about Alec now that they'd broken up. Jenny's heart sank at his silence. "Please leave if you have nothing else to say, Mr. Faust. I need to get to bed."

*Jenny..."

"You can find me when you actually want to tell me the truth," Jenny continued.

Alec knew the only thing he could do right now was to tell her everything. Sadly, for her sake, that was impossible.

He sighed. "Get some rest then. Goodnight."

"Don't need to worry about me, Mr. Faust." Jenny rolled her eyes, her heart clenching painfully.

Why couldn't he just tell her the truth? Or was he just lying to her?

Alec got up and left while Jenny stayed curled up on the couch. Only after he closed the door behind him did she finally sag down, unbelievably exhausted.

News of Bloom Conglomerate on the brink of liquidation shocked Jenny the next morning. She had expected news of Simone taking over the board, not this.

Further reading informed Jenny that several directors on the board had been charged with criminal breach of trust, sinking the company into turmoil. Bloom Conglomerate's share value dropped drastically as a result.

Jenny smiled. She instantly knew Simone had sparked this catastrophe. If so, Simone was

confident the company wouldn't liquidate.

As to why she did it...

It was possible Simone would buy the unwanted company shares, thereby increasing her weight on the board.

Jenny stopped reading the news. Yvonne couldn't do much in this chaos now, either.

She went to the hospital, preparing herself for her upcoming surgeries.

Most of the company's shares had been sold off, just as she expected.

Meanwhile, at Bloom Mansion, Yvonne was one of the many that sold their shares the minute the news hit. She was currently trying to convince Sam to sell off his shares too. "You need to sell them now, or they'll be worth nothing!"
