Chapter 1070 The T rap
After a brief silence, Jade finally said, "Why don't you talk to Gilbert about it? What if he
agrees? He's not young anymore, so he must have thought about getting married a long
time ago."
In Jade's opinion, Gilbert was still not married because no one was bugging him about it,
as his grandfather had passed away, and he was an orphan too.
Jenny also understood that she had to tell Gilbert about the pregnancy, whether he
wanted to hear it or not. They had to find a solution to the problem.
After hanging up, Jenny called Zack.
"Zack, did you already know about Gilbert and Marigold?”
Now that she was aware, it finally struck her how many holes there were in Gilbert's story.
Hence, she assumed that Zack also knew.
Hearing her accusation, Zack instinctively felt defensive. "Jenny, I didn't intend to keep it
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfrom you, but Gilbert told me not to tell you.”
"Are you just going to do whatever he tells you to do?" Jenny was exasperated. If Marigold
weren't pregnant, she wouldn't be worrying about it, but the situation was different.
Zack didn’t dare to refute Jenny. "You already know?"
"Not only do I know about the affair they had abroad, but I also know about something
else that will shock you."
Since they were siblings, Jenny believed they should go through thick and thin together.
There was no way she would tell Gilbert about Marigold's pregnancy alone.
"What is it?" For some reason, Zack felt that something wasn't quite right. Was Jenny
trying to trap him?
"Marigold is pregnant," Jenny said.
Zack was shocked into silence. It took him a long time to recover. Jenny wasn't in a hurry,
so she patiently waited for him to return to his senses.
After a long time, Zack stammered and asked, "Is the child Gilbert's?"
"What do you think?" If it wasn't Gilbert's, why would she be so concerned?
Zack swallowed nervously. "Are you sure? Could it be that Marigold got pregnant with
another man's child and is pushing the responsibility onto Gilbert?"
After all, they all knew how Marigold had been clinging to Gilbert before. Such a plan was
something she was capable of executing.
"It was Paul who told me. It can't be fake." Recalling how Marigold had acted at the
hospital, Jenny felt that it was highly likely that it was Gilbert's child.
Zack sighed. "What did he say? We still need to confirm it first."
"Isn't it better to go directly to Gilbert for confirmation?" Jenny asked. She had already
obtained Marigold's conception date, so she just needed to find Gilbert to confirm if it was
his child. He would know the best.
Zack regretted answering her call as soon as he heard that. "Are you trying to get me to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgo with you?"
"Zack, we are family. Of course, we have to go together," Jenny answered with a grin.
There was no way he would get Zack out of it.
"Can I not go?"
Zack didn't want to go. Apart from his strained relationship with Gilbert, he didn't want to
get involved with the matter.
He wasn't stupid. Everyone knew that Gilbert didn't like Marigold. Going to talk to him
about her pregnancy was like walking into a lion's den. When Gilbert got angry, he would
take it out on Zack instead of Jenny. He could imagine how miserable the outcome would
be for him.
"No way!" Jenny said. "I came to find you so that we can go together."
"Why the hurry? Let's go tomorrow."
Zack figured if he could delay it for a day, Gilbert might find out by himself, so they
wouldn't need to say anything.
