To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1387

At night, Gilbert drove to his villa. He got out of the car and went straight to his room. Then, he took out his phone and called Jenny.

When Jenny called him earlier, Esther was right in front of him. He did not pick up for fear of arousing her suspicions, which was why he had waited to come home before calling her back.

She picked up quickly. Gilbert learned that Marigold already knew about everything, and instantly, he felt a headache coming.

"Alright. I'm coming right now. Keep an eye on her. Don't let her leave the house." Gilbert knew that it was dangerous for Marigold to be alone right now. Esther had not given up on targeting her. It was only because she was in Jenny's house that the woman had no chance to strike.

After the call, Gilbert went downstairs. But before he got to the door, he paused in his footsteps. If Esther was suspicious of him, she would undoubtedly have someone spying on him. If he went to Jenny's place, it would further increase her doubt.

It was no easy feat coming this far. He was about to become the vice president of Bradshaw Operations. He wasn't going to give it all up.

But he couldn't leave Marigold hanging.

He turned and went back to his room. He turned off all the lights in the villa and looked out from the balcony of the second floor.

As expected, he saw a car parked outside the villa. It hadn't left since he'd come home. He was almost certain that this was a spy that Esther had sent out to watch him.

Thankfully, the spy was only at the front door. Gilbert could leave through the back door. However, he couldn't drive. Thus, he had to get someone else to pick him up.

In the end, he called Alec. As of now, only Jenny and Alec knew of his plan. If Jenny were to keep an eye on Marigold, Alec would be the only one available to drive him.
