To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1375

Marigold had quite a good sleep at Gilbert's villa that night. She was not affected by what happened the night before.

When she got downstairs after she woke up, Gilbert was already sitting in the living room. When he saw her coming down the stairs, he got up and came to her. "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"No." Marigold shook her head. She felt there was no need to make a fuss when her injury was so minor.

Upon hearing that, Gilbert didn't ask anymore. He asked the maid to have breakfast served. "Let's have breakfast."

"Alright." It was after Marigold sat down that she realized the breakfast that day was a little different from what they usually had. It was practically foods that were rich in iron. She was a little helpless. She looked up at Gilbert and said, "There's no need to go over the top when it's only a minor injury."

"So what if it's a minor injury? You were bleeding." In his opinion, since she did lose some blood, she needed more iron to replenish. Besides, it was because Marigold tried to save him that she got injured.

Marigold couldn't find a way to refute his argument. "Oh, alright." She didn't say anything else, just buried herself in her breakfast.

Seeing that she was eating breakfast so obediently, Gilbert felt the itch to ask, "Why did you jump in front of a bullet for me yesterday? Are you really not afraid of death?"

He had already asked this question yesterday. However, he still could not help but ask her again.

"I was afraid. Everybody is afraid of death." She wasn't that mighty, so of course, she was also afraid of death. "I didn't think too much about it at that time."

She was afraid to die, but she didn't want to see anything happen to Gilbert. Therefore, she reacted instinctively at that time.

Gilbert was touched as he looked at her. No matter how slow he was to warm up to a person, he could tell that he was a little in love with Marigold at that moment.

He had never expected that he would actually fall in love with a person he once hated so much. It was really too strange. Could it be that he was the kind who would develop feelings for a person over time?
