To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1336

Greg came out of Gilbert's office, and the other secretaries at the door looked at him, eager for gossip. "When does Mr. Hawthorn plan to marry Miss Wagner?"

"How would I know?" Greg responded with annoyance, glaring at them. It wasn't something that they should carelessly ask about without a thought.

Besides, they were busy with the naming ceremony now. How did marriage suddenly come into the picture?

"If they don't get married, people will definitely gossip about their child in the future," one of the secretaries remarked.

Others agreed and added their two cents, "Yeah, it's better for the child's growth to have both parents around."

Everyone knew about this, but no one dared to mention it in front of Gilbert.

"Go on, all of you. Get back to work. This is Mr. Hawthorn's private matter. It's not right for us to comment on it casually." Greg waved them off, signaling for them to focus on their tasks at hand.

The secretaries stopped gathering around to chatter, but surely, they would continue to discuss it privately. Greg would be powerless to stop the rumor mill from churning if it went on in private. After all, he couldn't dictate what others talked about among themselves. Other than that, he didn't know Gilbert thought of the whole thing as well.

In fact, Gilbert didn't think much about it. When it came to allowing Marigold to live in his villa or organizing the naming ceremony for the child, he didn't delve too deeply into his motivations for doing either. He just felt that they were simply things that should be done, or to be more exact, doing these things didn't affect him much.

He hadn't really given any thought to his feelings. He still had no special feelings for Marigold, and living together didn't suddenly make him develop feelings for her either. But if one were to insist that there wasn't any change at all, that was obviously impossible.

At the very least, he didn't dislike Marigold as intensely as he did before. It could even be said that he'd loathed Marigold in the past, especially when she schemed against him. Although they later resolved the issue of Marigold's pregnancy with money, he still couldn't bring himself to like her after all she'd done.
