To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 196 Reconstruction

At night, the village chief headed to Alec’s tent. Jenny figured that the villager’s discussion had come to fruition. She was a little curious whether the villagers would choose to leave or stay.

The village chief and Alec chatted for two hours before he finally came out of the tent. Seeing the wide smile on the village chief’s face, Jenny knew he was delighted with the outcome. After some hesitation, she entered Alec’s tent.

“I knew you would come,” Alec said, grinning when she walked in. He appeared to have expected her arrival.

Instead of beating around the bush, Jenny asked directly, “What did they choose?”

“They chose to stay here during the reconstruction,” Alec replied. “The village chief said that the villagers have lived here for generations, so they don’t want to leave.”

Jenny was not surprised by the result. “Well, it’s their hometown, after all. It’d be difficult for them to leave it behind just like that.”

“Vincent will monitor the construction here, so don’t worry about it. Come back to Parrington with me.” He was worried about Jenny remaining in the village.
