Chapter 223 She Knows
“Of course he’d cover for his friend,” Jenny thought.
She remembered the call she had with Alec that day. His tone was off, and she hadn’t noticed anything
then. But now that she looked back on it, it seemed obvious.
It was no wonder that Alec didn’t come to see her these past few days. He didn’t contact her often,
either. He was probably afraid that he would give something away.
At once, it felt as if a huge rock were weighing down on Jenny. She couldn’t breathe.
She got up and walked out of the room. “I’m going to make a call:”
Gilbert didn’t ask her any questions. He guessed that Jenny was going to call Alec. He was happy to
see this happening. He didn’t believe for one second that Alec knew nothing about this, and Jenny
would not believe it, either.
Jenny went to the balcony and took a deep breath before calling Alec.
“Jenny?” Alec’s voice sounded the moment the call went through. He seemed surprised that Jenny
would
call him.
She said nothing, suddenly realizing she didn’t know what to say.
Should she interrogate him? What right did she have to do that? She and Alec were not in that kind of
relationship. He was doing nothing wrong in covering for Paul.
“Jenny? What’s wrong? Have you found anything on Stephanie?” Alec was worried when he didn’t hear
her
talk.
At the mention of Stephanie, Jenny’s face shifted. “No. Have you?”
“No,” he replied.
“What about Paul?” Jenny asked.
Alec paused for a moment before saying, “Probably not. He’d tell me if he did.”
Jenny couldn’t describe what she was feeling. It just felt horrible. A wisp of disappointment appeared in
her chest.
“Are you…close?” she suddenly asked.
Alec said that they were, but then he sensed that something was amiss. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing much. I’m just surprised that there are people in Parrington that he can’t find.” She smiled. If
Alec were here, he would see that her smile was forced, twisted as if she’d been crying.
Alec was silent. He had the urge to tell Jenny the truth, but when he thought of Paul, that urge
subsided.
“Don’t worry. Stephanie will be alright. Maybe she’ll come back in two days.” He and Paul had agreed
that
he would let her go in two days max.
Jenny smiled lightly. “Really? Are you sure?”
“Yes. Believe me. She’ll be alright,” Alec said. He didn’t know Jenny already knew everything; he
thought his words would comfort her.
Jenny hung up, her face as cold as ice. She turned and went back into the room.
“Get someone, Gilbert. We’re going to get Stephanie back,” she said, her voice devoid of emotion. But
Gilbert knew that she was angry. Furiously angry.
“Alright.” He nodded and took his phone out. Done with his calls, he still felt worried. “What if Paul
doesn’t give her up? It’s his territory. It’ll be hard for us to just waltz in.” On top of that, they were
obedient citizens. Paul, on the other hand, was from the underworld. If anything happened, they would
be at a disadvantage.
“He will.” Jenny’s face darkened. She walked toward the computer and printed a few documents,
bringing them along.
Gilbert didn’t ask any more questions. Since Jenny had spoken, he was confident.
They rushed toward Paul’s villa. On the other side of town, Alec thought Jenny seemed weird over the
phone. He came to a conclusion quickly: Jenny already knew about everything. He instantly got up and
left his office.
