Chapter 889 Love Turned to Hate
Jenny walked out of the director's office. Her work today was basically done. Because of
her low spirits, she left the hospital to rest at home.
Alec called right at that moment. After his stay in the hospital, their relationship changed
for the better. They contacted each other frequently.
When Jenny got to the coffee shop, Alec was already waiting.
"Chilly, isn't it? Here, have something warm." Alec pointed at the hot coffee on the table,
expressing his concern.
Jenny nodded. The first notes of winter were descending, and the wind was growing
frostier. Even her coat couldn’t keep her warm. Thank goodness the coffee shop had its
heater on. After downing the cup of hot coffee, the cold left her bones, and she grew
warm.

said. He just wanted to know more about Jenny.
Jenny nodded. She was disheartened; perhaps it was because winter was coming and
because of the mother and daughter in the hospital.
Alec could tell that something was occupying her thoughts and asked," What's wrong?”
Jenny shook her head. She wasn't planning to tell him about what had happened in the
hospital. She thought it would seem like she was complaining. Everyone had their own
problems to deal with. No one liked listening to someone vent.
"Why don't you tell me? I happen to be free," Alec said. Jenny's feelings were going to
affect him.
"Free? Have you given Zeke what he wants?" Zeke had sent Alec to interrogate the two
hostages. He obviously wanted to hear something different from him.
Alec smiled, his lips curling upward. "Would you tell me what is going on in your head if I
told you?"
Jenny was speechless.
"Zeke probably won't be getting the answer that he wants. But I gave him another answer.
He probably hasn't recovered from that yet." Alec smiled. It was familiar to Jenny. It was
vaguely conniving.
When he smiled like that, Jenny knew that there was nothing that could stop him.
Sensing her interest, Alec didn’t hold anything back. "When I went to interrogate them,
they both suddenly accused me of being the mastermind behind Xavier's murder."
Jenny instantly grew anxious. 'Didn't you say..."
"Yes. They've never seen me, and they don't know that I'm the one behind all this. So, if
they're lashing out at me, it means they were made to."
The one who had convinced them of it intended to frame Alec without knowing they had
hit the nail right on the head.

researched the Fausts. Guess what happened."
"What?" she asked.
"Someone bribed the people in Faust Manor. Those two hostages were bribed to say that.
To them, it doesn't matter who they rat out as long as it's not their actual superior." Those
two hostages would not give Evan away. They had no reason to refuse as long as they
were given a scapegoat.
Jenny could understand it after a while. But she was bewildered, too. "Who would tell them
to say that? Don't they want you to die at this point?"
"The Watkins," Alec said.
Jenny was stunned. It couldn't be Blake's idea, could it?
Could her love have turned into hate?
