Thinking about it, Alec dialed Vincent’s number. “Keep an eye on the Blooms. I want to know everything
they do, especially Sam.”
After speaking, Alec hung up, rubbing his forehead in exhaustion. However, there were still piles of files
in front of him, and he couldn’t go back to rest immediately, so he buried himself in work.
The next morning, Jenny woke up feeling energized. After making arrangements for Justin and Lilian,
she went to the hospital to work. In light of her recent experience with the earthquake, the hospital made

Having left work early, Jenny had nowhere to go. Just then, Stephanie called her.
“Jenny, are you okay?” she asked. Her tone was rather casual, and she didn’t sound concerned.

me after so long would help?”
Stephanie was a little embarrassed. “Well, I knew you were fine.”
When she learned about the earthquake in Clearwater Village, Stephanie wanted to rush there
immediately. However, Paul told her that Alec had already gone there and that nothing would happen to
Jenny with him around. Although she was still worried, he didn’t allow her to leave. He even made
someone watch over her, not letting her leave the house.

so she wanted to confirm that she was fine.
“Where are you? Let’s have lunch together,” Jenny suggested. She had nothing to do, and it had been a
while since she had invited Stephanie to lunch.

would let her go.
“I have something to do today,” Stephanie replied. “Let me treat you another day.”
Jenny frowned, sensing something amiss. “What’s wrong? What are you doing, Stephanie?”
Before Stephanie could answer, a male voice answered for her. “She’s with me, Miss Walter. Why are

friend is as important as your own man. Do you understand?”
“My man? Who are you to me? My boyfriend?” Stephanie sneered, her words laced with a hint of fury.
Paul had not properly defined their relationship, making Stephanie feel like she was his mistress.

planned to cut her losses in time, but she hadn’t figured out how to tell him yet.
When she brought up that question, Paul’s expression turned ugly. “That’s just a label. Do you really care
that much about it? Would it make you happier if I said I was your boyfriend?”
