Chapter 425 What Did He Understand?
“What kind of person am I to you?” Alec asked Jenny. His tone was calm, without anger or emotion.
Jenny’s brows furrowed. After a moment of thought, she answered, “You’re just a big fat liar!”
She saw Alec’s face turn pale, likely hurt by her words. But could he really blame her? He had told her
many lies.
“Okay, I understand.” Alec sighed, nodding lightly. He turned and left.
What did he understand?
Jenny didn’t chase after him to ask what he knew. She just stood there and watched him disappear. For
some reason, she felt a trace of pain in her heart.
She didn’t know how long he had been gone before she closed the door and returned to bed. However,

Christopher anxiously awaited Jenny’s arrival at Parrington Airport as the boarding time drew near. He
worried that she had changed her mind about going to Bardoff City. Even if she didn’t want to know
about things related to herself, she still needed to help the Walkers, right?
Just as he was about to make a call, Jenny called him.
“Are you coming? The plane is about to take off,” Christopher hurriedly asked.
Jenny didn’t answer. Christopher began to panic until he felt a light tap on his shoulder. He turned to
see that it was Jenny, but he almost didn’t recognize her because she was wearing sunglasses,
“What’s…what’s with these?” Christopher pointed to her sunglasses, a little puzzled.
Jenny shook her head. “It’s nothing, the sun is bright, so I decided to cover my eyes.”
Looking at the cloudy skies, Christopher thought she should look for a better excuse.
“Didn’t you say the plane is about to take off? Let’s go.” Jenny walked toward the security checkpoint
without giving him a chance to continue asking. Christopher had no choice but to follow behind her.
Soon, they boarded the plane, and Jenny took off the sunglasses. When Christopher saw the dark
circles beneath her eyes, he finally understood why she wore sunglasses.
“Did you not sleep well last night because you were nervous about meeting my parents?” He tried to
crack a joke.
Jenny rolled her eyes, irritated by his implication that they were in a romantic relationship.
Christopher quickly reassured her, “Just kidding. Did you have a rough night?”
Jenny nodded, squinting and leaning back in her seat.

Parrington wasn’t too far from Bardoff City. Nonetheless, the flight would take two hours, allowing
Jenny to catch up on some sleep.
Jenny murmured in agreement and closed her eyes. The plane took off, and as the noise filled her
ears, Jenny felt a strange sensation in her heart.
Meanwhile, at the Faust Group, a reporter announced that Alec and Natalia had broken up. Though
they issued a joint statement, Alec wasn’t happy at all. After leaving Jenny’s place the previous night,
he went straight to work to distract himself from his thoughts of her, but it didn’t work.
Just then, Vincent knocked on the door and entered the room. Seeing the frown on Alec’s face, he
knew that he was annoyed.
“What’s the matter?” Alec asked.
“Miss Walter has left for Bardoff City.” Vincent had just received the news from Jenny’s bodyguards,
who were powerless to prevent her departure.
