Chapter 754 Don't You Still Like Him?
Jenny laughed when she heard that.
"Let's just leave him blocked. We have no need to contact each other anyway."
With that, she put away her phone, not intending to remove Alec from the list of blocked
contacts.
Jenny was resentful because if Alec had answered her call, she might have been rescued
earlier, and she wouldn't have been shot twice nor forced to jump off a cliff. Although she
knew a river was below the cliff, she hadn't known if she would survive.
She wondered if Alec would feel guilty if she had died there. She had no way of knowing
the answer and didn't care to know.

Evan nodded and got up, understanding that she wanted to talk to Gilbert alone.
After Evan left, Jenny turned to Gilbert and asked, "Why did you bring him back, Gilbert?"
Gilbert sat down beside her bed and asked, "What's wrong? Are you upset to see him
back?"
Without much emotion, Jenny replied, "I have no reason to be happy or upset about it."
Confused, Gilbert wondered if his good intentions were doing more harm than good. He
asked, "I remember you used to like him when you were young. Dont you still like him?"
Jenny answered, "That was a long time ago. How could you take that seriously?"
Aside from Zack and Gilbert, Jenny had grown up with Evan. Since he was the only person
who wasn't her sibling, who else could she have liked? It certainly didn't help that Evan
was handsome and kind. However, she had matured since then, and her feelings for Evan
had disappeared.
Gilbert felt a little frustrated as he thought Jenny still had feelings for Evan.
"I brought him back to manage my company. He's been doing really well abroad."
"That better be the case," Jenny replied. "If it's for any other reason, you better put a stop
to it."
She gave him a side-eye. Having grown up with him, she knew what he was upto.
Gilbert was a little flustered as she didn't hold back from calling him out. He quickly
answered, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

told me that he regrets rejecting your confession back then. I guess that kid definitely likes
you." When she didn't answer, Gilbert said, "Alright, I won't say more."
He knew Jenny didn't want to hear about it.
Waving at her, he said, "I'll head back to work. I just returned, and there's still much to
do."
Although he stopped pestering Jenny about Evan, he was still creating an opportunity for
Evan to get closer to her.
Jenny nodded and said, "Be careful. Who knows what those mercenaries will do before
they leave."
She didn't know what the Glasses would do next. Since they had spent a large sum hiring
the mercenaries, they were unlikely to stop attacking her.
"Okay, I have arranged for people to watch over you, but you still need to be careful,"
Gilbert said before leaving the ward.
