Chapter 925 Dying Young
Only after seeing Evan off did Jenny spot Alec's messages. She sent him some texts in
response, but the next second, the man was already giving her a call.
"Had dinner yet?’ Alec asked, exhaustion evident in his tone. He was still busy with work,
it seemed.
Jenny hummed in assent. "Mhm. What about you? You’re not skipping meals again, are

overworking themselves to the point of being hospitalized for passing out. Seeing Alec
make the same mistake upset her.

"Good. Come over for dinner," Jenny instructed.
"Okay." Alec smiled, feeling warm to the core.
He ended the call and swiftly finished reading the documents on his table, signing them
before finally leaving his office.
The countless employees still at work were surprised to see their boss leaving so early. He
was known to be a workaholic, after all.
The moment Alec left the office, Luke got word of his whereabouts and had his men track
Alec, wanting to see if they could find a weak spot.
But unfortunately for them, Alec only returned to what seemed like his apartment. They
didn't know Jenny lived right across from him in the same building.
