Chapter 372 Aren’t You Embarrassed?
The next morning, the wonderful smell of breakfast wafted from the kitchen as Jenny left her bedroom.
The only person who would’ve come by so early to cook for her was Alec. Was he here?
Jenny went to the kitchen, and to her surprise, she found Morgan at the stove.
“Morning, Jenny. Breakfast’s ready.” Morgan switched off the stove, plating bacon and eggs.
Jenny stared at her in surprise. “You know how to cook?”
“Mhm.” Morgan nodded. It wasn’t a big deal to her.
Jenny, meanwhile, grew gloomy. Why did it seem like everyone around her knew how to cook but her?
Why didn’t her grandfather hire a chef to teach her when she was young?

When she opened the door, she saw Alec standing coolly outside.
“M-Mr. Faust?” Morgan asked in surprise. Why was he here? Hadn’t he divorced Jenny already? Were
they…getting back together?
Seeing it wasn’t Jenny, Alec frowned. “Why are you here?”
Morgan was about to explain when Jenny came over. “I had her come over to help with
something. Did you….come over to make me breakfast?”
“Mm.” Alec nodded, not asking what it was Jenny needed help with. He was about to head into the
kitchen when he noticed the food on the dining table.
“Morgan’s already cooked for us,” Jenny explained.
The moment Jenny said this, Morgan felt something change in the way Alec looked at her. It was hostile
and made the hairs on her neck stand up.
“Why don’t you two eat first? I’ll cook some more.” Morgan decided, then ran off into the kitchen, away
from the two.
Alec was pleased by her quick sense and went to sit at the table. “Come and sit. Eat.” He gestured to
Jenny,
She went to sit by his side. “Well, you’re not polite at all.”
“It’s just breakfast,” Alec shrugged as he ate some eggs. Jenny bit her lip and said nothing.
Moments later, Morgan came out with her breakfast and sat at the far corner of the table, afraid of sitting
too close to the two lovebirds. She was curious about their relationship now but didn’t dare ask further.

Nearly everyone in Parrington had heard about the Goldings going bankrupt. They had arranged for the
marriage with the Murrs, but Alec had a strong feeling the Murrs wouldn’t actually help the Goldings.
Morgan stiffened upon hearing the question. “Y-yeah.”
It wasn’t her initial reason for being here, and Jenny had already decided to help them, so there was no
point in lying anyway.
“Aren’t you embarrassed about asking Jenny in the first place?” Alec scowled. Clearly, he didn’t have a
good impression of Morgan’s intentions.
His cold, stern aura made Morgan quake slightly in her seat.
