Chapter 204 Can’t You Accept It?
When Jenny and Gilbert arrived back home from their shopping trip, they found Zack looking angry and
flustered. Concerned, Jenny approached him and asked what was wrong. Zack, seeming to snap out of
his anger, glared at Justin before storming off to the kitchen with Gilbert, without answering her. Puzzled,
Jenny turned to Justin and asked him what had happened.
“He was playing a game earlier, but he wasn’t very good at it, so I teased him a little. He’s probably upset
about it,” Justin replied, looking apologetic.
Jenny couldn’t help but laugh at the situation, patting Justin’s head to comfort him. “Don’t worry, it’s not a
big deal. He just needs to practice more.” After reassuring Justin, Jenny made her way to the kitchen
with a smile. “Zack, even Justin can see that your skills suck. Why don’t you put in a little effort and

“I don’t see the point in wasting time on games,” Zack grumbled, clearly still annoyed. “And why are
these country kids better than me anyway?”
Jenny shared that when she went to the countryside to work at the free clinic, she brought a video game
because she feared it would be boring there.
Justin often came to play with her, and she taught him how to play a few times. However, she didn’t
expect Justin would turn out to be very talented at it and even better than her after a few games. Jenny
acknowledged the importance of talent; if nurtured the right way, Justin would be unstoppable.
Zack was still feeling a little upset and he didn’t know what to say. He understood the importance of
talent too. Jenny’s talent in computers was a good example. She was always much better than him, no
matter how hard he tried to catch up.
Jenny then asked, “Okay, Zack, why are you so upset because of a child?” She gave him a reassuring
pat on the shoulder, and then an idea struck her. “You know what, Zack? Why don’t you take Justin as
your foster son? Imagine how proud you’d feel to have such a talented kid as your son in the future.”
Zack was taken aback by her suggestion and looked at her in disbelief.
Jenny continued, “C’mon, think about it.” She figured if Justin had Zack as his foster father, his life would
be pretty good.
Zack glared at Jenny. “Forget it. What if my future wife doesn’t like the idea of me having a foster son
before we even have kids?”
Jenny didn’t push the issue. “Okay, it’s your decision. I just feel bad that you’ll be missing out on having
such a great foster son.”
Zack replied, “Thanks, but I won’t regret it.” He didn’t think he could handle having such a bothersome

Jenny left the kitchen to accompany the two kids, leaving Zack and Gilbert alone in the kitchen.
“Zack, do you think Jenny will end up with Alec?” Gilbert asked while chopping vegetables.
After a moment of silence, Zack said, “I don’t know, but no matter who she ends up with, I support her.”
Frowning. Gilbert looked at him. “I thought you were very upset with how Alec treated her.”
“I still am. However, as long as Jenny likes him, I can get over it.” As far as Zack was concerned, Jenny’s
choice was hers to make.
‘So you’ve come to accept it.” Gilbert chuckled although he was feeling rather perplexed.
“Can’t you?” Zack asked solemnly, turning to face his brother. “You don’t agree with Jenny and Alec
being together?” Before Gilbert could answer, Zack continued, “Is it Alec who you don’t like? Or do you
not like Jenny being with anyone?”
