Chapter 1056 Impossible
Jenny was taken aback once more. She was no fool—there must be a reason why Alec
emphasized the background of the kidnapper.
Staring at him in disbelief, she finally blurted out, "Do you suspect Evan of planning my
kidnapping?"
"More accurately, I suspect he orchestrated the whole thing to make you stay by his side
after saving your life." There was no good reason for Evan to kidnap Jenny, but what if that
was never the goal? Right now, it seemed that Evan had gotten what he wanted.
"Impossible!" she said without thinking. "That doesn't sound like Evan at all. N
Alec had wanted to tell her that Evan was no saint, but he felt upset upon seeing how

real injuries."
"Alright. I got it. I’ll talk to him and get him to do a checkup at a Bardoff City hospital," she
suggested, thinking that having Dr. Gaarder around was unnecessary. Alec knew there was
no point arguing because Jenny wouldn't allow him to do as he wished. He turned around
and gave the doctor an apologetic look. "Sorry for the trouble all this while. I'll get
someone to drive you to the airport."
"No worries." Dr. Gaarder didn't mind it at all. After bidding them farewell, he left.
Jenny didn't feel better after Dr. Gaarder's departure. She knew what Alec was thinking,
but she refused to believe that Evan was the type of guy to pull dirty tricks.
"Don't worry about Evan. I'll make him go for a checkup." With that, she went into the
villa. He watched as she walked away from him. He had the urge to say something, but he
was silent until the end.
Whatever. Alec decided that his priority was to obtain solid evidence. Any argument at this
point was a meaningless guess.
In the next few days, Jenny was plagued by conflicted feelings in the next few days, but
she did not immediately force Evan to go for a checkup. As usual, she took care of him as
though nothing had happened.
Alec fell back into the routine of calling her after she retired to her bedroom. They were in
constant contact, although they weren't dating.
One day, Jenny retired to her room after sending Evan back to his. She was expecting a
call from Alec after she switched on the lights, just like the days before. To her dismay, she

She stood up and walked to her bedside. There, she noticed the lights from Alec's study.
He was clearly home. Why wouldn't he call her, then? Perhaps, he was occupied.
She stopped worrying and went for a shower. At first, she thought he'd be done with work
after she got out of the shower, but she was surprised to find no missed calls from him.
She was somehow worried about him, so she called him instead. She waited, but no one
picked up, which fueled her anxiety. She had wanted to call Old Mr. Faust and request that
he check on Alec in the study, but she remembered that the old man had gone home to
Parrington a few days ago. Alec was alone in his villa.
Frowning, she made another call to him. He still did not pick up. This time, instead of
waiting, she put on her coat and headed toward his villa.
