Chapter 251 Let Her Go
Jenny was put into a difficult situation by Jade’s invitation. If she hadn’t agreed to Alec, she wouldn’t
hesitate. Alas, she couldn’t do that anymore.
Sensing her hesitation, Jade narrowed her eyes at her suspiciously. “Hm? Do you have an appointment
this afternoon?”
“It’s not an appointment. I’m just going to visit the fashion exhibition,” Jenny replied, not daring to look.
Jade in the eye.
“Perfect! I’ll go with you to see what the popular designs are.” Jade looked at Jenny intently as if she had
seen through her.
Jenny wanted to slap herself for admitting she was visiting the fashion exhibition. She should’ve just lied

Her perplexed look made Jade laugh. “Forget it, I’ll go by myself. I don’t want to disturb your date.”
“My date?” Jenny was shocked. “It’s not a date. What are you talking about, Jade?”
“No? Didn’t Alec drive you here just now? Aren’t you planning to go to the exhibition with him?” Jade
asked, leaving Jenny no room to refute.
With an awkward smile, Jenny bit the bullet and explained, “We’re just going to the event together. It’s
not a date.”
“Oh, sure, sure. Whatever you say.” She didn’t bother to argue with Jenny as she had already decided
that Jenny was going on a date. Nonetheless, she admired Alec. The last time she met him, Jenny was
still cold and indifferent toward him. Although it hadn’t been long since then, he managed to persuade
Jenny.
After talking to Jade, Jenny left the office and headed downstairs. When she was walking toward Alec,
who was waiting for her not far away, a car suddenly stopped in front of her.
“Gilbert?” Jenny was a little surprised to see him.
Gilbert got out of the car, his expression ugly. “I called you. Why didn’t you answer?”
“Ah? Did you call me?” Confused, Jenny took out her phone to check. Sure enough, there was a missed
call from Gilbert. She had been focused on sketching her designs and her phone was on silent, so she
missed the call.
“I’m sorry. I was sketching my designs, so I didn’t hear the phone ring.” She apologized, very
embarrassed.
Gilbert’s expression didn’t improve; her apology only made him feel worse. “Jenny, when did so distant
from me?”

All it took was one night for them to turn into strangers.
“No, you’re overthinking things,” Jenny said, smiling wryly. She couldn’t meet Gilbert’s eyes,
Gilbert didn’t give up. He grabbed her wrist, asking, “Jenny, do you not want me as your brother
anymore?”
Jenny bit her lip, not knowing how to answer. Of course she wanted him as her brother. However, she
couldn’t pretend that nothing had happened.
“You’re hurting me.” She tried to free herself but failed. The truth was, she could break free, but that
would mean she would need to fight Gilbert. If that happened, it would be the end of their relationship.
“Let her go.” As soon as Alec’s voice sounded, he appeared in front of Jenny in the blink of an eye. He
pushed her behind him and fixed his eyes on Gilbert.
Taking in the scene, Gilbert’s heart throbbed in pain. “Jenny is my sister! I’m talking to my sister. You
don’t tell me what to do!” If it weren’t for her, he would have told Alec to fuck off.
