To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Why did he seem to care so much about Jenny? He couldn’t figure out why. Perhaps her strange behavior intrigued him, and he wanted to find out why. Maybe that was all.

Suddenly, his phone rang, jarring him from his thoughts. He scratched his forehead in annoyance and answered the call.

“Speak.”

“Mr. Faust, I have examined your activities for the past five years, and you haven’t met Dr. Walter in any of them. But the strange thing is that no one knows where Dr. Walter went after she retired two years ago, so it was hard to find out her activities for the past two years. Why don’t we ask Mr. Wagner for help?”

Paul Wagner was an expert when it came to matters of the underground. Whereas they couldn’t get the information they wanted through ordinary means, he might have a shot at it. That was the reason Vincent made that suggestion.

After a long silence, Vincent thought Alec would agree. To his surprise, Alec replied, “There’s no need for that. She’s just a doctor, and we don’t need to pay her so much attention.”

Did that mean he didn’t need to investigate any further? However, before he could confirm that, the call ended. While he felt helpless, he knew better than to ask Alec.

A few days later, Jenny facilitated the hospital discharge procedure for Faye.

“Although the tumor has been removed, we cannot be certain that a relapse will not occur. So, please attend check-ups regularly, and make sure you take care of your health,” Jenny reminded her in the hospital lobby.

“Okay,” Faye nodded. “Thank you, Dr. Walter.”
