    Chapter 1337 Gilbert and Marigold (12)


    Marigold’s body was trembling slightly, and Jenny noticed it. She reached out and held her hand while


    asking, “Are you okay?”


    “I-I’m fine.” Marigold forced a smile, but she looked anything but fine at that moment.


    “Don’t think too much. Isn’t the baby’s naming ceremony this weekend? I’ll apany you to go


    shopping. We should get you some new clothes for such a wonderful asion,” Jenny suggested while


    getting up and taking off her white coat. She prepared to leave the hospital with Marigold.


    Soon, they walked out of the hospital and stood by the roadside. A gust of wind blew over them, and


    only then did Marigold return to her senses and ask, “Huh? Shopping? Don’t you need to work?”


    ‘ Alec is the major shareholder of this hospital.” In other words, Jenny had absolute freedom over her


    working hours.


    Of course, most of the time, she still went to work on time. After all, she had quite a number of patients


    who came to see her every day. But there were exceptions sometimes, like now.


    Regardless of whether Marigold could ultimately end up with Gilbert, she’d given birth to Caleb. He was


    her nephew, and for that reason alone, Jenny felt that she had to soothe Marigold’s unease and


    prevent her from overthinking.


    ‘You don’t have to trouble yourself. I’m fine, really. You should go back to work,” Marigold said. Ever


    since she fell ill, she’dpletely lost interest in trivial things like buying clothes.


    Jenny didn’t give her a chance to refuse. She pulled Marigold along and got into a cab. ‘I know you


    don’t care much about your outward appearance, but you have to consider the child. Gilbert’s friends


    and family will be present on the day of the naming ceremony. I heard he even invited several business


    partners. Are you sure you would like them to see a gloomy mother?”


    The rtionship between Gilbert and Marigold was an open secret. The people attending the naming


    ceremony were aware of this and wouldn’t ask insensitive questions. Everyone knew that Marigold was


    the child’s mother, but she wasn’t anyone to Gilbert in any way at the moment. Nevertheless, they


    would still take the initiative to approach Marigold because no one could tell what might happen in the


    future. Perhaps they would end up together after all.


    “Will there be so many people present? I thought he only invited you and a few others,” Marigold


    remarked, feeling a bit nervous at the thought of appearing in front of so many people. She hadn’t


    really dressed herself up all this time.


    The car was already moving when Jenny nced at Marigold from the corner of her eye and said,


    “Yes, Gilbert is taking this naming ceremony very seriously. So, you need to dress yourself up nicely.


    For Cal, you know?”


    ‘Okay, I understand.” Marigold nodded meekly in agreement. At the mention of her child, she had no


    objections to anything.


    The car soon arrived at thergest shopping mall in Bardoff City. Marigold wasn’tcking money, so


    when Jenny offered to pay, she refused and bought a few outfits for Jenny in return instead. Jenny


    epted her goodwill gracefully.


    Smiling at Marigold, she said, “Rest assured. In return for these outfits, I’ll help you.”


    “Huh?” Marigold didn’t quite understand what she meant by that.


    Help her? Help her with what?Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    “Are you sure you don’t have any feelings for Gilbert?’ Jenny smirked.


    Although Marigold hadn’t made her feelings for Gilbert obvious, Jenny could tell she still liked him.


    Moreover, her love for him hadn’t diminished overtime. On the contrary, it had be more intense as


    they lived together.


    Marigold didn’t expect Jenny to bring it up. Her cheeks instantly burned red in response. “Don’t talk


    nonsense. Gilbert doesn’t think of me that way.” With that, she hurriedly entered the fitting room.


    Jenny shook her head helplessly. She thought Marigold needed to stop being shy and act boldly


    instead. She’d already created an opportunity for the two of them to be together every day. Jenny was


    hoping that Marigold would take the initiative like before and eventually win Gilbert over.


    But who could have foreseen that Marigold would undergo a drastic change in attitude? Not only was


    she not proactive anymore, but she’d also be shy and reserved.
