To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 1225 Can You Accept Me as Your Mother?

After she left the prison, Lynette told Jenny the last words Eric had said to her. Then, she added, "You don't have to hold back or worry about anything for my sake. Although Pete was raised by me, he's not really my son after all."

"I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I know what to do," Jenny said to Lynette on the phone.

After they hung up, Jenny didn't think much of the matter. Although she'd entertained Pete's invitation to a meal before out of consideration for Lynette, it didn't mean she would compromise again and again. If Pete wanted her and Alec to help him, he had to offer enough chips. As long as he could offer sufficiently attractive benefits, even if he were a stranger, she and Alec would help him.

On the day Eric was executed, the news gave enough coverage to the former overlord of Bayside City. Jenny could see that almost all the media published news related to Eric on that day, no matter which website she browsed.

But did it even matter at this point in time? Eric might be rotting in hell or waiting for his turn to be judged by God by then.

Taking a deep breath, she felt an unprecedented level of calm.

At night, Graham invited her and Alec to dinner at Walter Castle. Jenny didn't refuse, as everyone was feeling joyous that day.

Jenny and Alec didn't go to Walter Castle together, as Graham personally called Alec. Upon receiving a call from Graham, Alec put his work aside and went to Walter Castle to help Graham prepare dinner. He wanted to perform well in front of his future in-laws, and Jenny was well aware of this.

"You're here, Jenny." Lynette was wearing a completely new outfit that was absolutely different from the style she'd worn previously. She looked more similar to her appearance in the photo of her that Graham always kept around.

Upon hearing Jenny's name being mentioned, Graham and Alec both peeked out from the kitchen.

"Wash your hands, and dinner will be served," Alec instructed.

"Okay." Jenny nodded.

She went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and Lynette followed behind. It made Jenny a little uncomfortable.

"Do you have something to say to me?" She had talked to Lynette on the phone in the morning and discussed Eric's matter. Now that Lynette was looking at her expectantly, Jenny didn't know what to make of the situation.

Lynette shook her head, but her eyes reddened involuntarily. "Jenny, can you...accept me as your mother?"

Jenny froze for a bit, then she smiled and replied, "You're already my mother by blood. Whether I accept you or not doesn't matter."

"Jenny, you know what I mean." Lynette didn't want such a cold and distant relationship with Jenny; rather, she wanted her daughter's heartfelt recognition.

Jenny didn't say anything, which was indicative of her stance on this matter.

Lynette felt uneasy but knew very well that Jenny didn't like her being pushy. She could only endure the pain in her heart and ask, "What do you think about me and your father?"

Upon hearing that, Jenny pondered it carefully and answered, "It's really a matter between you two, and I don't have much right to intervene. However, you are still my parents, and you've yearned for each other all these years. In the past, there were too many obstacles standing in your way, preventing you from being together. But now, all the obstacles have been removed. If you still love each other, then follow your hearts."

In other words, Jenny still hoped that the two of them could be together. They were already middle aged, and at this stage, they should be enjoying life.

Jenny genuinely hoped that they could be happy together.
