Chapter 1288 Just Dealing With Some Annoying Stuff

Although Gilbert fought a lot with Zack, he still viewed Zack and Jenny as some of the

most important people in his life. He was taken in and raised by Jenny's grandfather as a

young orphan; to him, Jenny and Zack were family. Therefore, he would never allow Zack

to get in danger for a woman, and he was being civil for not pulling tricks to break up the

couple.

"That's enough, Gilbert. Calm down. I know you care a lot for Zack, but we can't do

anything about his relationship. It's all up to him. If he's willing to die for Janet, our

protests won't do a thing." After the incident, Jenny finally realized that Zack must have

fallen hard for Janet. Why else would he sacrifice his life for her? In the beginning, she

thought that the couple might break up due to conflicts after some time, but it seemed

that she was naive.

"I don't think he's that stupid. He'll know that the woman isn't for him after this incident.

He won't go back to her." Gilbert sounded confident.

Jenny didn't share the same optimism, but she kept her thoughts to herself because there

was no point arguing. She'd rather leave the discussion for when Zack regained

consciousness.

After that, Jenny was ready to stand guard at the hospital with Gilbert. Alec was against

the idea. "Gilbert will be here. Let's go home and rest," he suggested.

Ever since Jenny agreed to his marriage proposal, he had been addressing Gilbert more

easily and cordially regardless of Gilbert's perception of him. Of course, Gilbert wasn't too

fond of the closeness, but he didn't bother to argue with Alec. "Alec's right. You should

rest. I don't know when Zack is waking up. Go rest. I'll get someone to inform you when

he's up."

"But Zack..."

"He won't wake up quicker just because you're around. It's useless," Gilbert retorted.

Jenny agreed with him. She should rest and be mentally refreshed to face everything after

Zack woke up. From what Gilbert told her, the men behind the attack were quite

something.

When she left the hospital with Alec, she found Janet at the entrance, making a call.

"Why do you treat me this way? Am I not your daughter? How could you sell me off for

that useless son of yours? Do you know who those men are? Do you know what you're

getting me into?"

Janet was wailing and howling. Jenny couldn't hear the response from her parents, but she

assumed that parents who had the audacity to inflict such harm on their children would

not be moved by tears and speech. They wouldn't have done that to Janet if they had an

ounce of conscience.

Janet hung up and turned around, only to see Jenny standing not far away. Her hysterical

communication with her parents must have been overheard by Jenny, and she felt rather

ashamed of it.

Jenny felt awkward because she didn't intend to eavesdrop. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..."

"It's fine. Just dealing with some annoying stuff. I'm used to it." She smiled bitterly. She

should have succumbed to her destiny after years of being exploited by her family. Had

she not crossed paths with Zack and stopped financially supporting her family, her parents

wouldn't have had to put her as collateral. At that time, she recalled Gilbert's words. "Can

you be sure this won't happen again?"

Sure? How could she be sure? She could not promise anything. The more she dwelled

upon her thoughts, the further she sank in despair.
