Chapter 1345
Chapter 1345 Gilbert and Marigold (20)
Even if they weren’t married, as long as they stood together, no one would dare to specte and
gossip about the nature of their rtionship. By doing so, naturally, no one would make fun of
Marigold’s awkward status.
At the moment, anyone could see that they were clearly not fond of each other, and people would
inevitably gossip about their weird rtionship behind their backs. Those gossips would then extend to
their child.
With Jenny’s reminder, Marigold suddenly realized she’d been careless and didn’t think things through.
“I didn’t consider the matter carefully enough.”
Immediately, she stood beside Gilbert with a smile on her face. No matter how distant they were at
home, when they were in public, they had to pretend that their rtionship was amicable. It was just
that they didn’t get married.
Seeing here to this realization, Jenny felt relieved.
Jenny wanted to ask Gilbert what he thought of Marigold presently, but given the special circumstances
that day and the sheer number of people present, she thought it was not the right time for her to
approach him about this. She would find another time to talk to him about it.
After Jenny and Alec entered the hall and found their seats, they discovered that Zack and J had
already arrived ahead of them.
“Jenny, you’rete,” Zack said.
Jenny nced at him and teased, “Hey, Zack. Ever since you got married, I rarely see you around.
Have you abandoned me, your sister, because you have a wife now?”
J’s cheeks turned red, and she red at Zack in annoyance.
She had no idea Zack was purposely keeping to themselves. She’d previously mentioned inviting
Jenny and the others over for a meal, but Zack said it was troublesome, and their rtionship was
good enough that they didn’t need to keep in touch so frequently unless something big came up.
J didn’t understand these things, nor did she believe there was any rtionship in this world that
didn’t require any form of upkeeping and maintenance. So now, when she heard Jenny’s words, she
was unable to register the fact that Jenny was just joking and took it literally.
‘I’m sorry, Jenny. It’s all my fault-“
“Why are you apologizing, silly?” Zack interrupted her. “She was joking.”
‘I was joking, J,” Jenny confirmed.
Zackforted J before looking at Jenny and saying, “Don’t deliberately tease her. She doesn’t
handle teasing well.”
Perhaps it was due to J’s upbringing and the environment she grew up in, but she would get hung
up on every word and reaction from others. She was afraid of offending people and worried about how
others might perceive her. In general, she was very sensitive.
‘Got it, Zack. I didn’t expect you to be so doting toward your wife,” Jenny remarked. Before he met
J, she had never imagined him to be this kind of person.

“It’s what I should do, isn’t it?” he asked rhetorically, proudly pulling J into his embrace.
J lowered her head and felt too embarrassed to face anyone.
Jenny chuckled lightly. “Yes, of course.”
’Oh, stop being jealous. Don’t I dote on you excessively too?” Alec also pulled her into his embrace
jokingly. He wouldn’t let his wife lose to anyone.
Seeing him wanting her to gain the upper hand in such a trivial issue, Jenny felt kind of helpless as she
replied, ‘Yes, you do.”
The people at the other tables nearby were speechless when they heard the two men arguing about
who doted more on their wives.
What was going on? Weren’t they there for a baby’s naming ceremony? Why were they forced to watch
such tant and unabashed disys of public affection?
’There’s something I want to tell you,” Zack spoke again, putting on a serious expression.
Jenny turned to look at him as he said, “I found my biological parents.”
The smile on Jenny’s face vanished instantly, and she became solemn.’ You found them?”
’Yeah,” Zack nodded. “They’re overseas. Actually, I’ve received information about them before, but I
just wasn’t really keen on finding them. But…” He nced at the person next to him and added, “Later
on, I thought that since I already knew where they were, I should at least go and see them. Otherwise,
it might be a lifelong regret for me.” After a slight pause, he continued with a sneer, “I didn’t expect I’d
really found them.” He’d never expected that everything would go so smoothly.
