Chapter 239 Gilbert Likes You
Marigold said a lot of things, but Jenny didn’t understand a single word. She stared at Marigold, who was
on the brink of turning crazy, and thought of Gilbert’s phone call. Could she be going crazy because of a
rejection?
“Go to the hospital if you’re sick. Don’t scream around here.” She was not a psychiatrist. She was
helpless against something like this.
“You!” Marigold was infuriated and pointed at Jenny. “You’re the one who’s sick! You call him your
brother, but you’re stringing him along while getting close to Alec. You’re fucking sick!”
Jenny’s eyebrows furrowed. Something wasn’t right with Marigold’s words. “What do you mean?”

infatuated with you!” Marigold was determined to expose Jenny’s pretense.
Infatuated? Jenny thought that was an odd phrase to use.
But Marigold didn’t care and blazed on, as if she wanted to vent her anger in one go. “If you don’t like
him, why are you giving him hope? Do you want him to be your third wheel forever? I thought you were a
nice person, and since you’re Gilbert’s sister, I figured I should consider you my own in case Gilbert and I
ever got together. Now looking back, I think it was foolish of me. You’re siblings! You’re family! How could
you do this?” She said a lot at once, but even then, her anger was still ablaze. She glared at Jenny,
wishing she could just tear her apart.
Jenny was in a daze, but in her confusion, she somehow seemed to understand something. She just
wasn’t sure if it was true.
“I don’t know what you’re saying, but to me, Gilbert will always be my brother.” Jenny’s expression was
cold. She no longer looked at Marigold kindly. “I don’t know what conflicts have happened between you
two, but that’s between Gilbert and you. I will not be involved in this. I respect all of his decisions.”
Jenny was about to open the door, not wanting to waste her breath on Marigold anymore, but then
Marigold grabbed her arm. “Don’t you dare tell me you don’t know Gilbert likes you!” She laughed while
she said it. How could Jenny not know?
When Jenny heard her, she was indeed dumbstruck. She nearly dropped the keys in her hand. It was as
if she’d heard a joke and laughed out loud. “You’re sick. Gilbert is my brother. Even if he likes me, it’s
brotherly love. It’s not as complicated as you think.”

absolutely certain when Gilbert confirmed it to her this morning.
“Why do you think Gilbert rejected me? It’s because he likes you. Don’t you tell me that you knew nothing
about this!” Marigold glared at her as if she wanted to pierce right through her.
However, she was arguing with Jenny. Even if Jenny’s emotions whirled around like a tornado, her face
was as calm as a tranquil lake. “That’s just your speculation. I believe that Gilbert has no such
intentions.”
“Oh really? Do you really believe that, or is that the denial speaking?” Marigold was smiling coldly.
Jenny flung her arm away and went into the house. “This is my business. It doesn’t involve you. If you
have the time, you should be thinking about how to make Gilbert like you.”
“You…”
The door slammed shut. No matter how Marigold knocked, Jenny wouldn’t open it.
