To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 860

Jenny didn't understand why, but she didn't oppose what he said. "Alright, you handle it. I trust your abilities."

"Okay." Evan smiled and asked her, "So, Luke approached you to talk about this collaboration? Why is he suddenly being kind?"

"Whatever his purpose is, as long as we can get tangible benefits, it doesn't matter even if he has ulterior motives." Jenny didn't care; in fact, she could guess what Luke was up to.

Hearing her words, Evan knew that Jenny wasn't interested in Luke. Even so, he would still help Alec get rid of Xavier, as he wasn't exactly thrilled to see Luke constantly pestering Jenny.

After breakfast, Evan suggested taking Jenny to meet Gilbert, and they could have a meal together.

Jenny didn't refuse. She hadn't seen much of Gilbert since he came back some time ago. They were all busy, and Jenny didn't know if it was her imagination or something else, but she felt that Gilbert had become more distant after he returned. It was unlike when they were in Parrington, where they used to contact each other almost every day.

On the way to meet Gilbert, Evan suddenly remembered something. "Do you know about Gilbert's situation?"

"Huh? What situation?" Jenny was a little confused, not quite understanding the meaning behind Evan's words.

Evan thought Jenny already knew. After all, Gilbert's matter had caused quite a stir, and based on their relationship, she shouldn't be unaware.

Right then, Evan had no idea about what happened between Gilbert and Jenny, so naturally, he wouldn't know why Gilbert went abroad. He had always thought that Gilbert went abroad to develop his business.

He hesitated for a moment but didn't tell her about it ultimately. "You can ask him yourself later."

Sure enough, not long after, Gilbert spoke up, "It's just that I didn't want to work with that customer, so he found someone to go after me behind my back. I got injured, but it was nothing serious."

Upon hearing the word "injured," Jenny immediately became anxious. "Where did you get hurt? Is it serious?"

"I'm fine now. It wasn't serious," Gilbert replied.

"How can you not tell me about something so huge?" Jenny was angry, but after her anger subsided, she blamed herself. If it wasn't because of her, Gilbert wouldn't have gone abroad. She felt guilty and apologized, "I'm sorry, Gilbert. It's all my fault..."

"What does it have to do with you? This is part and parcel of doing business. You're bound to encounter people willing to do anything to get their way. It's nothing strange. Don't think too much into it," Gilbert reassured Jenny, and he felt relieved that she believed him. Lying to Jenny took a lot of courage on his part.
