    Chapter 1394 Gilbert and Marigold (69)


    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic.


    After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.


    Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned


    toward Marigold. “I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much.*


    ‘It’s all in the past. It’s not worth mentioning.” Marigold didn’t want to talk about it. She was afraid that


    Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert’s n would be


    ruined.


    Lottie smiled. “That’s true. The past is the past. You’re such a nice person. You’ll definitely be able to


    find someone better suited for you in the future.”


    Marigold pursed her lips.


    Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly


    turned to Marigold and said, “Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days’ time. If you have


    the time, you’re more than wee toe and witness our love for each other.”


    After that, she sat in the passenger seat, not even bothering to look at Marigold’s face.


    The car started and drove away, disappearing from Marigold’s sight. She looked as if she had been


    struck by lightning as she stared after the car.


    Jenny wanted to curse her out. Lottie had done it on purpose!


    “Marigold…” she said, gnashing her teeth. She was worried about Marigold.


    Marigold snapped out of her trance and looked at Jenny. “Is that true?” Engagement party?


    Gilbert had told her that he would never marry Lottie. But now…


    Maybe in Gilbert’s eyes, it was only an engagement. It didn’t mean they were going to marry.


    But to Marigold, an engagement meant that they would marry in the future.


    “Gilbert has no choice. Esther refuses to let him be in power and insists that he be engaged to Lottie


    before giving him the position,” Jenny said, trying her hardest to exin Gilbert’s actions.


    But now, Marigold hadpletely lost faith in Gilbert. ’No other choice? Oh yes, he has it very hard


    indeed.” She smiled bitterly and walked away.


    Jenny was worried for her safety but didn’t want to bother her. Hence, she tagged behind Marigold


    quietly.


    Before Gilbert had started the car, he’d heard what Lottie said to Marigold.


    But he had no choice but to keep it together and back to Marigold. Jenny had given him their location,


    so he found her very quickly.


    Marigold was on the streets. She didn’t know where to go. Then, a car honked behind her. She looked


    over and saw Gilbert’s face. Anger surged in her chest at once. She quickened her footsteps, not


    wanting to see him.


    Gilbert had no choice but to stop the car and run after her. “Marigold!” he said, pulling her back.


    “Let go!” She tried to get away from him to no avail.


    Gilbert knew she was miserable, so he hurriedly exined, “It’s just an engagement. Once I get


    engaged, I’ll be in the position to subdue the Bradshaws.”


    “Oh, really? What if I don’t believe you?” Gilbert kept saying that, but

    Marigold had already lost all her trust in him.


    Gilbert was panicking, especially when he saw how she was being. “Get into my car. I’ll send you


    home.”


    “No!”


    “Caleb is waiting for you at home,” Gilbert said.


    At once, Marigold’s head cleared. That was true. She had a child to take care of. How could she give


    up hope over a man? Even without Gilbert, she had to live on with her child
