Chapter 779 She Had to Keep It In

In the end, Rowena left the villa with the signed divorce papers and the offer of a

countryside villa and 15 million dollars. She did not want the two apartment properties

initially offered to her, which were admittedly in a better location than the villa she

received, because she believed that she should live in villas, not high-rise buildings. Ever

since birth, she had been living in villas, which led to her odd insistence on receiving a

villa at the time of divorce.

After negotiating with Graham, the 15 million dollars she received was the final

agreement. He was speechless at her obstinance and added another 5 million dollars

because he couldn’t be bothered with her. But the deal was far from ideal for her because

she visited Graham with at least one billion dollars in mind, and she only left with a tenth

of the amount she wanted, which was a huge difference.

However, she had her concerns. Like Graham told her, she needed to think in Jolene's best

interests. Whatever she had done to the Walters could not be exposed right now, or it'd be

damaging to Jolene. Hence, she had to keep it in.

Jenny was informed about the outcome of Graham's settlement with Rowena. Although

she thought that Graham shouldn’t have even offered a dime to Rowena, she understood

that he did not want to die on this hill and kept her opinions to herself.

She knew that the 15 million dollars wouldn't be much for Rowena. Given her spending

habits over the years, she would soon run out of money and suffer for it.

Graham and Rowena's divorce was finally done and dusted. The news caused some

commotion, and the majority of opinion was against Graham, thinking he was ruthless for

ditching Rowena after the Glasses went bankrupt. Still, the gossip did not affect Graham

too much.

On Monday morning, Jenny arrived early at the hospital for Alec's surgery. Even though

she claimed she wasn't nervous, she was secretly a little anxious. Perhaps, she felt that

way because she would be operating on someone close to her, which was a different

experience than working with a complete stranger. Still, she managed to calm down and

get focused.

She went to the anesthetic room to check on Alec. The anesthetist was still in preparation,

and a completely sober Alec smiled when he noticed Jenny. "Dr. Walter, I'll leave

everything in your capable hands."

"Don't worry. I'll do my best,’ Jenny answered. He grunted and fell silent. His mood wasn't

exactly good because of the impending surgery, and she felt a little bad for him. "Did you

not inform Mr. Faust about it?"

"He's not in great health. It'll only worry him.’ Alec knew that she was referring to his

grandfather, not Zeke. "If anything bad happens..." He glanced at her and chuckled.

"Could you do me a favor to make frequent visits to him? He seems to like you very

much."

During his last visit to Old Mr. Faust, the old man mentioned Jenny and wished to see Alec

and her together.

"Don't worry. I won't let anything bad happen to you." Jenny was determined and well-

prepared.

Soon, the anesthetist was ready and administered the anesthesia to Alec, who gradually

fell asleep. He was wheeled into the surgery room, and the surgery officially started.

Blake arrived an hour after the surgery started. She came late because she knew she

could not stop Alec from undergoing surgery, which would take time too. At first, she

thought she was the only one at the hospital to wait for Alec, but she was surprised to see

Paul Wagner there. She wasn't too familiar with Paul-Alec merely introduced him as a

friend. She wouldn't be interested in Paul otherwise because of his lackluster background.
