To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 What on Earth Happened?

The sudden ringing of a phone startled the both of them. Jenny came back to her senses and pulled away from Alec’s lips.

“What’s wrong, Gilbert?” she said, answering the call.

“Where are you? Are you alright?” Gilbert’s voice sounded from the other end. He sounded anxious, worried.

Jenny frowned. She sensed that something was wrong with him. “What’s wrong, Gilbert? What happened?” “Nothing…nothing.” Gilbert was tripping over his words. He didn’t know how to explain himself.

“What on earth happened?” Jenny was not a fool. She could tell from Gilbert’s tone that something had happened.

Gilbert was quiet. Then, he said, “It’s really nothing much. I just fought with Marigold, and she might have gotten the wrong idea. I was worried that she would go for you.”

“A fight?” Jenny thought that was weird. Would Gilbert fight with someone? She’d never seen anything like that.

“It’s just a misunderstanding. Well, if she goes to you, ignore her. Don’t believe anything she says,” Gilbert said. However, the worry in his heart had not dissipated.

“Okay.” Jenny wasn’t sure what went on between them, so she couldn’t offer an opinion. She hung up and put the phone away before noticing Alec was looking at her.

“Was that Gilbert?”

“Yeah.” She nodded.

“He sure picked a good time to call,” Alec said sarcastically. He hated him with all his heart.
