Chapter 240 Don’t Give Me Those Eyes
Jenny leaned against the door, hearing Marigold’s thumps and knocks. Even after she left, Jenny stood
frozen in her spot, unmoving.
Gilbert…
Jenny tried hard not to think about what Marigold had said. She told herself that it wasn’t real, that
Gilbert was just her brother, that he wouldn’t mix up his feelings for her. But then, she couldn’t calm
down. Her memories with Gilbert flashed before her like a movie. His actions, the look in his eyes….
She realized the signs were all there, but she hadn’t thought of him that way, which was why she never
noticed. And now, after being rudely exposed, she realized that she couldn’t lie to herself.
She slid down the door and buried her head in her arms. A throbbing pain permeated her heart.
Alec appeared outside the door. He’d waited a long time for Jenny’s lights to turn on, and had begun to
worry for her safety, so he came up to look. He just so happened to hear Marigold’s words.
He hadn’t come forward to stop her because he thought Jenny deserved to know. He only went to her
door after Marigold left. He didn’t knock, knowing that Jenny would be upset and he wouldn’t be able to
do anything.
No comfort in this world would be of use. Jenny had to get through this on her own.
He sighed helplessly, leaning against the door. Instinctively, he thought about lighting a cigarette, and
his lips twisted into a bitter smile. He seemed to be smoking more frequently now.
He was contemplating lighting the cigarette when the door unexpectedly opened as he was finally
putting it back. Alec had no time to hide, presenting himself to Jenny head-on.
“Why are you here?” Jenny frowned. Wasn’t he supposed to have left a long time ago? Then, she
thought of something, and her face changed. “Did you hear everything?”
“Jenny…” Alec wanted to explain, but when he saw her reddened eyes, he knew that anything he said
would not be of use.
“Don’t give me those eyes. Are you pitying me?” Jenny looked at Alec, not understanding why he would
look at her like that. Even if Gilbert liked her, what was there to pity her about?
“No. I was worried about you.” He was worried that Jenny wouldn’t be able to take it.
At first, Jenny truly couldn’t take it. But then she calmed down quickly. She couldn’t take Marigold’s
word for it. Who knew if what Marigold said was true?
She wanted to go out to look for Gilbert so she could talk to him about it. If it were real, she would have
to make it clear that he’d have to stop thinking about her that way. They were siblings. Even if they
were not blood-related, they could only be siblings.
Jenny waved her hands. She was in no mood to talk to Alec. “There’s no need. Please, go home.”
“Where are you going?” Alec asked.
“I have something to do.” Jenny walked into the elevator, and Alec followed closely behind.
In the elevator, Alec guessed where she was going, but he didn’t ask. “Alright. Call me if anything
happens. I’ll always be there.”
Jenny only looked at him, not saying anything.
The elevator stopped on the first floor. Jenny walked out of the gates, hailed a cab, and left quickly.
Alec
didn’t even have the chance to offer to drive her.
