Busybody
“Gilbert?” Jenny asked after he had stayed silent for too long. “Does he know something?” she
wondered.
“Maybe things aren’t as complicated as they seem. He could just genuinely like you,” Gilbert said after
coming to his senses.
“But…”
“Seriously, you don’t need to worry about this right now, Jenny. You need to get your rest, alright?”
Gilbert said kindly, his warm tone a soothing balm to her anxiety.
Jenny took a deep breath. “Alright.”
“Now get to bed. It should be well past midnight there now. Goodnight, Jenny.” With that, Gilbert hung
up the call.
Jenny lay on her bed, her mind now clouded with thought. Sleep had long escaped her grasp.
The next day, after Vincent had brought Alec’s breakfast, he said, “Mr. Faust, you can’t sleep in the
lounge forever.”
His boss had been a workaholic since he knew the man, but even then, he had retired to Perry
Residence. Yet now…
Alec looked at his breakfast, saying nothing. He didn’t want to sleep there either, but it was his only
choice. He didn’t want to go to his family home, so he only had the office left.
“Sir, a reminder that the director wants to have a meeting today.”
Mortimer’s decision to hold a meeting couldn’t mean anything good.
Alec hummed in assent and shrugged, making Vincent worry. What if Mortimer decided to attack Alec
during the meeting?
“Anything else?” Alec asked after seeing his assistant still standing in his office.
“No, sir.”
“How is…” Alec was about to ask about Jenny but decided to stop. “Mm. You can leave.”
Vincent went to the door, but before he left, he reported, “All is well with Miss Walter. Nothing out of the
ordinary’s been happening.”
Alec blinked in surprise, then shot him a glare. “Busybody.”
Vincent smiled and left. He knew very well that Alec cared deeply about Jenny even though he acted
like he didn’t. He wouldn’t have broken up with her if it weren’t for Mortimer’s threats.
Alec eyed his breakfast, appetite having dissipated long ago.
“All is well?” he thought. How he wished Jenny would at least be sad. That way he would know she still
felt something for him, but that was left in the air now.
Alec huffed at his own despair. He didn’t know what to do anymore. It all felt meaningless. In fact,
everything felt meaningless.
Meanwhile, Jenny had just finished another surgery. She had discovered that all her worries
disappeared the moment she focused on her work.
“You look…well, Jenny,” Morgan said. She had heard of the breakup, but strangely Jenny didn’t look
like she needed cheering up.
Obviously, Jenny knew what she was thinking. “Nothing stays the same for long in this world, Morgan.
You just keep on doing what’s true to yourself and live on.”
