To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1377

"What's the matter?" Gilbert was confused. Did he say anything wrong earlier?

Marigold pursed her lips. She wanted to ask Gilbert what exactly she was to him, but she didn't dare to do it.

Both of them had yet to define their relationship. Perhaps Gilbert wasn't sure about his feelings for her as well. Marigold was a little afraid that she would break what they had going on if she asked him directly. If things ended well, they would immediately be together. If things end up badly, they would have to part ways.

Thinking of Gilbert's attitude from the past, Marigold got cold feet. In the end, she still didn't have the guts to ask.

"Why did you suddenly decide to return to the Bradshaw family?" Marigold asked to change the topic.

Gilbert didn't know what she was thinking about. Therefore, when he heard her asking this question, he thought that was exactly what she had been thinking about before that. "Nothing in particular. Since they welcome me so much, why shouldn't I go?"

Marigold felt he was not speaking the truth, but she asked no further questions. In any case, she had no clue about business-related things. Even if Gilbert told her about it, she would be confused, so she might as well just not ask.

After breakfast, Gilbert didn't go to work and stayed home instead. That made Marigold a little confused. "Don't you need to go to work?"

"I'm not going today."

"Why?"

"Your injury isn't healed yet. What happens if something happened to you at home after I went to work?" Gilbert said without looking up at her. He was still looking at the documents in his hands. It was as if this was what he was supposed to do.

However, what he said made tears well up in Marigold's eyes.

Was he really starting to care about her? Was she really not dreaming?

She rubbed the corner of her eyes to forcefully wipe off her tears. "You don't have to do this. I'm fine. Besides, there are maids at home."
