Chapter 623 I Just Wanted to Make Sure
Graham raised an eyebrow. He could sense Jenny's grim tone. "What happened?" "You wouldn't have hurt Alec,
would you?" She looked straight at Graham, not giving him a chance to escape.
Graham was stunned for a moment. He probably wasn't expecting her to ask such a question. He was silent for a
while before smiling bitterly, saying, "So, something has happened to Alec, and now you're suspecting me?"
Jenny said nothing. Her silence was enough of an answer.
Graham felt bitter. He had no idea how Jenny viewed him, but one thing was for sure; she had placed absolutely no
trust in him. However, she was asking him this question outright. Could she be giving him a chance?
"It was not my doing," Graham said. 'Although I don't wish for you to be together, I wouldn't hurt him because of

Most importantly, he didn't want Jenny to hate him.
For whatever reason, Jenny's guard instantly lowered when she heard Graham's words. She believed him. "I'm
sorry. I just wanted to be sure. I didn't want to suspect you," Jenny said awkwardly. She knew it wasn't nice of her to
ask him a question like that, but she had no choice.
Graham smiled, brushing it aside. "The fact that you can ask me about it plainly is proof of your trust in me. Maybe I
haven't been good enough to deserve your complete trust. But it's alright. I understand." He was never a qualified
father. Graham understood it more than anyone else. He didn't push the topic and asked, "What happened to Alec?
Why did you think it was me?"
There must have been a reason why Jenny would suspect him.
Jenny didn't conceal anything from Graham. She briefly told him what had happened and said, "I suspect that it's by
someone in Bardoff City. That's why I came to ask you about it."
Alec had not come in contact with many people in Bardoff City. It was pretty easy to investigate the few people with
enough power to attack him.
"Your speculations are not unfounded." Graham didn't say much else. "You should investigate the people who have
had fights with him."
"Yeah. I know." Jenny nodded. Now that she was sure it wasn't Graham, her next step was to find out who Alec had
wronged in the past few days.
Graham saw how confident she was and knew she already had a list of suspects. "Did you come to ask for my
help?"
Jenny was stunned and then amused. "You guessed it. Right off the bat, too."
"You're my daughter, after all," Graham said, smiling.

Jenny did not retort. Before coming to the Walters, she did not care for her birth parents. In fact, she felt a little
repulsed by them. She didn't want to involve herself with them. But now, after spending some time with Graham,
she discovered that he was not as bad as she had thought. She was even looking forward to getting to know her
mother. She didn't know what sort of woman she would be. But was her mother even still alive?
Jenny realized she was drifting off and snapped back to reality. "I want you to help me investigate the Glasses. Find
out about their recent movements or if they have any secret hideouts."
These were all things that Alfred could not find out. That was why she wanted Graham's help.
"Are you suspecting that the Glasses have brought him to Bardoff City?"
Graham frowned and shook his head. "I don't think that's likely. If it were the Glasses, Alec would probably be dead
by now." Instantly, he regretted his words. "That's not what I meant. I..."
"It's okay. What you're saying makes sense. But what if?" Jenny smiled. She would not be angered because of a few
words from Graham.
