Chapter 152 Problem

They caught quite a bit of attention in the grocery store. In addition to their dashing and beautiful

appearance, they were not unknown members of the public.

Fortunately, the video recorded by the surveillance cameras in the hotel had been uploaded to the

Internet, and it clearly showed that Jenny had been knocked unconscious and brought into the room. It

successfully cleared the suspicion surrounding her.

At the moment, the police were spending their best efforts tracking down the burly men who had brought

her to the hotel, and they were convinced that useful findings would arrive soon.

“What would you like to eat, Jenny?” Gilbert all but ignored everyone. His gaze was fixed on Jenny as if

she was the only person in his world.

Jenny, on the other hand, didn’t like being stared at. She took out a mask from her bag and put it on,

“Well, anything is fine. Anything you cook is great.”

“Well, in that case, I’ll decide what we’ll have for dinner,” Gilbert replied..

Jenny nodded in response. Meanwhile, Alec quietly observed them without voicing his opinion. He didn’t

mind that Gilbert didn’t ask him what he wanted to eat as he was well aware that Gilbert didn’t even want

to invite him to dinner in the first place.

But did he care? No. That wasn’t enough reason for him to leave them alone.

“Does your arm still hurt?” Jenny suddenly turned to look at him, pursing her lips. Her eyes were

unreadable.

Alec shook his head. “It’s alright. Don’t worry about it.”

“Who told you I’m worried? I just don’t want to owe you a favor.” She loathed owing favors, especially

those that were difficult to repay. In fact, she wished she had been injured instead of being in debt for a

favor.

Alec revealed a small smile, not taking offense to her words. “Don’t worry. You don’t owe me anything. I

did it willingly, so you aren’t in any way indebted to me.”

However, his reply only made Jenny feel more indebted. Ultimately, she decided she couldn’t repay the

debt through Alec. Instead, she would visit Old Mr. Faust someday. Since he was Alec’s family, treating

him well was equivalent to returning Alec’s favor, right?

Meanwhile, Alec was unaware of the thoughts going through her head. Suddenly, he frowned as he

scanned the surroundings with a sharp gaze. Something was wrong.

“What’s the matter?” Jenny sensed Alec was behaving strangely. However, she found nothing amiss

when. she observed her surroundings.

Alec shook his head. “Someone is watching us, and I don’t think they mean well.”

Jenny instantly became wary. After what happened in the morning, she knew many people were easily

confused. Even the video the hotel had released was useless to them. Although she had been knocked

out and brought into the room, they insisted that wasn’t proof that she didn’t kill Steven.

“Where are you looking at? I don’t see,” Jenny asked in a low voice.

Frowning, Alec replied, “The one in the red shirt on your right, the two people in black behind them, and

the two in blue on our left seem a little suspicious.”

Apart from them, there were a few other people that Alec found suspicious. However, he didn’t want

Jenny to be afraid when he wasn’t certain. Hence, he didn’t point them out to her.

He reached for his phone and sent Vincent a message, asking him to bring his men over. Regardless of

whether these people had ill intentions, he decided to take them all away to question them. There was no

way he would allow the situation from that morning to repeat.

They dared to attack Jenny with boiling water in broad daylight. If they became a little bolder and used

sulfuric acid, the consequences would be disastrous.

Jenny studied the people Alec pointed out. She didn’t feel as strongly as Alec did about them. While she

could tell they were peeping at her, it wasn’t too obvious, and they were glancing at her at the same

frequency others did.

Nevertheless, she didn’t let her guard down. She knew that it was highly likely that there was a real

problem if Alec felt that way.
