Chapter 1287 Why Don't You Deal With the Mess That Is Your Family?

At noon, Janet was back at the hospital on an empty stomach. When Gilbert returned, he

found her standing at the entrance to the ICU. He ignored her and called Jenny. He didn't

say much after learning that she and Alec had alighted and were on their way to the

hospital.

"Is Jenny coming?" Janet cast a nervous glance at Gilbert. Although he had never done

anything threatening to her, she was fearful of him. In the past, she was fine with Gilbert's

aversion as long as Zack loved her. After the incident, she seemed to have lost some of

her confidence.

Gilbert glanced at her and grunted without offering more details. Since he refused to

engage, Janet knew her place and quietly sat by the ICU.

Half an hour later, Jenny and Alec showed up at the hospital and hurried to the ICU. There,

she saw Gilbert, which angered her. "Didn't you say he suffered minor injuries? Why is he

warded here, then?"

As a doctor, she knew too well the patient's condition that warranted a stay at the ICU.

She realized that Gilbert had been lying to her over the phone. Seeing her agitation, he

hurriedly calmed her down. "He's fine. He wont die."

"Gilbert!" She sounded cross, but he felt the same.

He hissed, "He acted stupid by putting himself in danger for someone else. He had no one

to blame but himself."

That remark took her by surprise, for she still had no idea what had occurred. She gave

him a puzzled look before shifting her gaze to the silent Janet. When Gilbert realized that

Janet was not going to open up, he told Jenny everything. But in his narration, Janet was to

be blamed, and Zack was merely being stupid. Janet didn't fight back because she agreed

it was her fault too.

Jenny felt a headache creeping on after hearing the sequence of events. She waved her

hand. "Let's put that aside. I'll check with the doctor. We'll talk about everything else when

Zack's awake."

"Sure." Gilbert didn't stop her, knowing she'd only feel assured after asking the doctor

questions. Alec went with her, and soon, only Janet and Gilbert were by the ICU. When he

realized that she had no intention of leaving, he looked rather annoyed. "Jenny and I will

stay. You don't have to be here."

"Gilbert, I'm Zack's girlfriend-"

"You're his girlfriend, not his spouse," he dismissed her with disdain, hoping that Janet

wouldn't be in contact with Zack anymore.

She bit her lips. He went on, "Rather than wasting your time here, why don't you deal with

the mess that is your family?"

That question seemed to have done the job. She said no more and was ready to leave.

"Got it."

Indeed, it was high time she sort out the mess. At least she needed to confront her

parents about their treatment of her. Had they never seen her as their daughter?

When Jenny returned, Janet was gone. "Where is she?"

"She left," Gilbert said curtly, sounding quite irritated as though he refused to mention

Janet.

Knowing what was in his mind, she advised him, "Gilbert, even if she was the reason

behind Zack's injuries, she was not to blame. She can't choose her parents. You don't have

to shift your anger to her."

"If she can't choose her parents, why doesn't she choose to stay away from Zack? Zack

wouldn't be lying here if it weren't for her."
