Chapter 90 What a Shame
Before Morgan could recover from her shock, Yvonne asked, “You know what Alec’s grandfather likes,
Miss Walter?”
“Well, I just have a general idea of what elderly people like,” Jenny answered.
That made sense to Yvonne. Jenny wasn’t even acquainted with Alec’s grandfather, so how could she
know what he liked?
However, Alec didn’t think the same way. Although he never met Jenny when they were married, his
grandfather hung out with her a lot. Hence, it would come as no surprise if she knew what the old man.
liked.
Ignoring Alec’s pointed look, Jenny tugged Morgan away. “Come on. Let’s go buy him some gifts.”

Just as they were about to leave the store, Yvonne suddenly asked, “Alec, did you invite Miss Walter to
attend your grandfather’s birthday party?”
Hearing that, Jenny, who was at the door, stopped in her tracks. She wanted to attend Old Mr. Faust’s
birthday party. After all, he had treated her well during those two years. However, without an invitation, it
would be brazen of her to just show up.
“Miss Walter is a busy person. I don’t think she has time to go.” Alec ultimately decided not to invite her
in front of so many people, afraid they might end up quarreling.
Yvonne pouted, saying, “What a shame.”
Jenny didn’t stay to listen more. The moment Alec was done talking, she walked out of the shop with
Morgan in tow and disappeared from their sight.
Sensing Jenny was unhappy, Morgan asked softly, “Jenny, do you want to attend the party? If you want
to, I’ll bring you with me.”
“It’s alright.”
Jenny shook her head. Although Morgan was kind for offering her help, Jenny was in a difficult position.
Showing up with Morgan’s family might even cause them trouble. After being rejected by Jenny, Morgan
didn’t push further.
Soon, Jenny and Morgan arrived at an art dealer.
“Hello! May I know what you’re looking for?” the clerk greeted warmly when they entered the premise.
After scanning the place, Jenny asked him, “Is Mr. Lawson around?”

immediately if anyone came looking for Mr. Lawson.
“Yes, give me a minute. I’ll call our boss right away.”
While waiting for the clerk to return, Morgan asked Jenny cautiously, “Is the owner your friend?” After
giving it some thought, Jenny answered, “Not really. Let’s just say he’s my mentor’s friend.” “Oh.”
Although she didn’t know who Jenny’s mentor was, he seemed very powerful and mysterious. Soon, Mr.
Lawson came out. When he saw Jenny sitting in his shop, his lips curled up in a smile. “Why are you
looking for me, miss?”
“Mr. Lawson, I’m here today to help my friend choose a gift for someone,” Jenny explained, before
whispering, “It’s a gift for Mr. Faust’s birthday.”
Understanding the situation, Mr. Lawson whispered to his clerk, who scurried away. Then, he resumed.
chatting with Jenny.
“How is Mr. Birkett doing? When does he plan to visit Parrington?”
“He’s doing well, healthy enough to exercise every day,” Jenny answered with a smile. “Regarding when
he’ll come to Parrington, I have no idea.”
