Chapter 542 The Worst Injury She's Ever Sustained

Alec stared at Vincent. The company was not his priority at the moment when he badly wanted to look for Jenny. However, he knew that the gap between him and Jenny would only widen if Faust Group collapsed, and he might even lose the opportunity to get to her. After some consideration, he sighed and relented. "Send someone to locate her right away."

"Sure. Don't worry. I'll send someone to look into that.' Vincent nodded in relief, feeling thankful that the CEO had not lost his mind.

After Alec went for the meeting, Vincent arranged for someone to look into Jenny's whereabouts. At that time, none of them knew that Jenny had been hospitalized.

The sky was dark when Jenny regained consciousness. She stared at the ceiling for a long time before she recalled the events before she fainted. Smiling wryly, she thought this was the worst injury she had ever sustained and perhaps served as a good lesson. Bardoff City was no Parrington-she had to be extra careful with each step she took. She considered getting two bodyguards for herself, or she might perish the next time she encountered a similar crisis.

She grabbed her phone from the headboard and realized it was out of battery. While she was worrying, James entered the room.

"Jenny, you're up!" He looked glad. "Are you hurting anywhere?"

She shook her head and cast a grateful look at him. "James, I have to thank you today. I might have died if you hadn't shown up on time."

"Don't mention it. I felt bad for arriving too late." Had he arrived earlier, she wouldn't have suffered such grave injuries. Still, he was relieved after seeing that she was in great spirits."Who'd do this to you when you have just moved to Bardoff City?"

She chuckled. "Who else? There's no one else except for Rowena and Jolene."

He put on a grim expression and scoffed. "I will not go easy on them-the audacity to hurt you!"

"It's fine, James. I can handle them." She turned down his offer to help because this was a family issue. Moreover, she had to take into account Graham's best interests, for Rowena was his wife, and Jolene, his daughter. She didn't want to make a fuss.

"Jenny..."

She shook her head and insisted, "James, I can handle it. Trust me. I was unprepared today because I didn't expect them to make a move this fast. That's how they almost got me."

"Alright. I won't say more if you insist." He gave up in front of her but secretly developed a grudge against Rowena and Jolene. He added, "You can stop me from avenging you, but you can't say no to this." She looked at him, puzzled, and he explained, "I got you a few bodyguards. They will stay by your side so that we won't see a repeat of the incident today."

Stunned, she marveled at James' thoughtfulness. Just when she was mulling over the issue of bodyguards, he had made the arrangements for her.

"If you turn down my offer, I will have no choice but to get rid of Rowena and Jolene," he jokingly threatened when he mistook her silence as an objection. The Glass family was hard to deal with, but he had confidence in taking down Rowena and Jolene. In the worst-case scenario, he might turn the Glass family against him, but he was unbothered by the consequences.

She shook her head, feeling speechless. "James, I wasn't rejecting your offer. I totally welcome the layer of security."
