To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 260

Chapter 260 Nonsense

“Zack,” Gilbert called, his voice heavy. “I may have to leave for a while. I believe you’ll take good care of Jenny when I’m gone, right?”

Zack froze in his tracks and instantly turned to look at him. “Leave? Where are you going?”

“I need to attend to matters regarding my company’s overseas business. I’m going to investigate them.” Hearing that, Zack rolled his eyes at him. “Oh, a business trip! I thought you were planning to leave for good.”

“There are a lot of things going on over there, so I may not be back so soon,” Gilbert elaborated.

Zack, who was in the middle of sighing in relief, instantly frowned. Studying Gilbert, he realized he was serious. He jerked upright and snarled, “Why are you doing this? You’re trying to escape!” He was not stupid. Since Gilbert suddenly wanted to leave, there was only one reason. Zack assumed it was because he never resolved things with Jenny.

“Maybe.” Gilbert didn’t deny it. “If I remain here, I’m afraid I won’t be able to control my feelings for Jenny. I just realized that my feelings had already caused her harm, so I decided to leave for a while. Perhaps when I am back, I’ll have completely let go of my feelings for her, and we can let bygones be bygones.” He didn’t want to leave as it meant he couldn’t see Jenny for a long time. However, he knew that as long as Jenny was within his vicinity, he wouldn’t be able to control his feelings for her.

Zack was about to persuade Gilbert that he didn’t need to do that, that the situation didn’t require such a dire measure. However, he swallowed his words in the end. He sighed and said, “You have already made up your mind, haven’t you?”

“Yeah.” Gilbert nodded, “I’m just worried that bad things will happen to her after I leave.”
