Chapter 1372


    Chapter 1372 Gilbert and Marigold (47)


    Marigold felt that she was about to lose her mind. He was deliberately seducing her, wasn’t he? He


    clearly knew she liked him, yet he seduced her like that!


    She bit her lips and felt she should teach him a lesson.


    In the next second, she immediately took charge. She reached out her hand and held Gilbert’s chin.


    “What do you want me to do?”


    Gilbert chuckled softly. This was truly extremely interesting. He said nothing, but he didn’t stop moving


    either. He slowly got closer to Marigold, so much so that he was almost touching her lips. “Am I the one


    who wants it, or are you?”


    “Damn it!” Marigold swore inwardly. She was blushing so hard that her earlobes were red. She was shy


    and a little nervous. She was even a little excited.


    Marigold felt that she should just do it. Since he had thrown himself at her, she would be wasting this


    opportunity if she did nothing.


    Right when she was about to kiss Gilbert, their car was violently hit. Fortunately, Gilbert hugged her in


    time. Otherwise, the impact would have thrown her to the front seat.


    “What’s going on?” Marigold looked a little terrified when she regained her senses.


    Gilbert’s gaze turned cold. Looking through the windshield, he saw a car blocking their car. It looked


    like it was not an ident.


    “Mr. Hawthorn…” The driver was also dazed. That car was still driving next to them earlier. Why would


    it suddenlye crashing into them?


    Gilbert hugged Marigold and nced out the car window. “Reverse and go around the car!”


    He knew they wereing at him, and he wasn’t afraid of trouble. However, Marigold was still in the


    car. He had to first ensure that she was safe.

    The driver started the engine again as soon as he heard Gilbert’s words. However, the other party


    didn’t n to let them leave. There was another impact. It was another car. They blocked their way,


    giving them no chance to drive away.


    Gilbert’s expression turned grim. Then, he made a decision very quickly.” Abandon the car. Let’s go!”


    Upon saying that, he opened the car door and brought Marigold into an alley before the other party


    could get down from their cars.


    Fortunately, the night had fallen at that moment, so the men would not be able to find Marigold and


    Gilbert so soon. However, Gilbert also knew that this was not a solution.


    Gilbert heard a loud bang-a gunshot. He had no choice but to be cautious. These people actually had


    guns on them.


    Marigold also knew how serious the matter was. She was by Gilbert’s side and said, “I’ve already


    notified Jenny. They should be arriving very soon.”


    Gilbert frowned. He was a little worried. He knew at a nce that these people were not easy to mess


    with. Jenny would be in danger if she were toe over.


    “Alec is with her. He will definitely keep her safe,” Marigold added. It was as if she could tell what he


    was worried about.


    Gilbert responded with a hum and made no otherments. Then, he said, “Follow me closely.”


    Both of them hid in an alley quietly. However, they kept hearing footsteps, both near and far,ing


    from behind them. They asionally also heard shots being fired. They had no way to keep their


    minds at ease.


    “We cant keep staying here. I’ll go lure them away. You find a ce to hide. Leave only after they have


    left.” Gilbert was certain that these people wereing at him. Therefore, once he showed his face,


    they certainly would leave with him.


    He wanted to leave, but Marigold didn’t allow it. “No! Together!”


    “Stop fooling around!” Gilbert looked at her seriously. He didn’t want Marigold to get into trouble with


    him.


    However, Marigold was very firm. “I’m not fooling around.”


    She was right. She was not fooling around. She had never been this serious before. If they were not in


    an inappropriate ce at that moment, Gilbert probably would not be able to hold himself back and hug


    her.


    He didn’t force her. He just protected her even more.


    “Watch out!”


    A shot was fired, then Marigold could be heard shouting. She rushed forward and stood in front of


    Gilbert.


    Another loud bang came-another shot!


    At that moment, Gilbert felt the world turned ck and white, and his heart was pounding like mad. It


    was as if he was about to lose something important.
