Chapter 861 Can't Force It

Author: Taylor
After the trio of them were done with their conversation, they stood up and went to the parking lot. Gilbert asked Jenny to wait in place while he took Evan to get the car.

On the way there, Gilbert looked somewhat displeased with Evan. "I brought you back so you could pursue Jenny and make her happy, not say things you shouldn't say in front of her."

Evan looked innocent as he shrugged and said helplessly, "How was I supposed to know that you never told her? With all the commotion, I thought Jenny already knew."

"I didn't want her to know," Gilbert said.

"Okay, I promise I won't say anything in front of her, alright?" Evan didn't think too much about it. It was indeed embarrassing, and it was understandable that Gilbert didn't want Jenny to know.

Seeing that Evan didn't mean any harm, Gilbert didn't say anything more but asked, "How's it going? Why do I feel like Jenny is still indifferent toward you?"

"Oh, you're pretty spot on with that." Evan didn't see the need to deceive Gi

    "Is Zack coming to Bardoff City too? That's awesome!" It had been a long time since the three of them hung out together. Jenny missed those days very much.Seeing how happy she was, Gilbert asked, "Why won't you let him come here since you want him in Bardoff City so much? He'd happily oblige if you just said the word.""You and Zack are good to me. I know you would agree to my requests, but I can't influence you for my own sake." Jenny would be happy if they came to Bardoff City to further expand their companies. However, if they came here purely for her sake, it would be different. Jenny didn't want to be such a selfish person.Gilbert looked at her, a mixture of emotions swirling in his chest. "It's okay to be selfish once in a while, Jenny. You don't have to be so understanding."One's heart would ache seeing someone be too considerate. Gilbert felt that Jenny had the right to make outlandish requests. She didn't have to consider their feelings so much."It's not about being s

    When Jenny was about to take her phone out to check for messages, a gift box suddenly appeared before her. She looked up, seeing Evan smiling at her. "It's for you. You can see if you like it.""There's no need, Evan…" Jenny refused, attempting to slide it back to him.But Evan was persistent. He pouted and said, "You didn't refuse any of the things Gilbert bought you, but you're saying no to this little thing from me. Are you really treating me like your brother, Jenny?"Jenny was at a loss for words. If she refused him again, it would show she didn't think of him as a brother. However, she didn't want to accept the gift from him."Seems like I'm nothing to you." Evan began to take it away, the disappointment apparent in his demeanor.Jenny felt guilty and hurriedly took the box. "How could that be? You're my brother. I just didn't want you to break the bank.""Don't worry. I have the money for this." Evan smiled, watching her take it. "Open it up," he said. He'd bought it when

    When Gilbert got back to the restaurant, the food was already served. Jenny and Evan were waiting for him to come back."Apologies. I was taking a phone call." Gilbert sat down, showing nothing out of the ordinary on his face. At least, not to Jenny.Evan glanced at him for a while, but he said nothing. Quite frankly, Gilbert had nothing to do with him. Evan couldn't be bothered, either.They began eating their food. Whether by coincidence or not, Marigold walked into the restaurant, too. There was a man next to her."Let's eat somewhere else," Marigold said. She'd spotted Gilbert and the others, and was afraid she'd be misunderstood. Furthermore, she didn't want to be seen with him.The man next to her did not agree. "Why should we? I think this place is great. Didn't you say you wanted to have soup earlier?"Marigold wanted to say something else, but Jenny and others were looking over. She had no choice but to follow him into the restaurant. They sat down.Jenny was surprised

    Jenny wanted to say that she had no intention of threatening him, but then Evan pulled her towards him. "Jenny is under my protection now. You can't pick on her like that.""Oh, so you're protecting her already." Gilbert smirked. "Alright, alright. You'll protect her."Jenny was a little embarrassed, but she smiled, saying nothing.After the meal, Gilbert sent Jenny home. As for Evan, he returned to Walter Inc. If he agreed to do something, he would do it to his best ability.He wanted everyone to see his strengths so that everyone would know that he was capable and worthy of Jenny.After a whole day's worth of shopping, Jenny was exhausted. She wanted to take a nap, but her phone rang.It was Alec. She was stunned and didn't reach out for the phone.Yesterday's incident was still fresh in her mind. She remembered what Stephanie had said. She had to calm down. Thus, she did not intend to pick up.Thankfully, the call ended quickly, and Alec no longer called again. Jenny sighed

    "Can I stay?" Jolene looked at him anxiously.James refused. "You chose to leave, so you should fuck off as far away as possible and never appear in my sight.""I…" Jolene stammered, at a loss for words.If she could have figured out why he refused to let her go earlier, she wouldn't have insisted on leaving.What a pity it was that she had not analyzed anything before. She merely thought that her days, if spent there, would be dull and dreary.Jolene bit her lip, deciding to try her luck. "Well, in that case, I'm going to leave now." She tugged on her suitcase, preparing to leave.Seeing that she was actually going to leave him, James was stunned. He thought Jolene would beg him for another chance. He wasn't expecting her to leave just like that.Was this what she meant by liking him? It was very half-assed.Jolene walked with her suitcase in tow, murmuring to herself. If James were near, he would have heard her counting to a hundred. She wanted to see how far along she'd get

    Vincent nodded. He had served Alec for many years. He knew of his abilities well. If he dared to go to the launch, there wouldn't be much to worry about.After Vincent left the office, Alec investigated the turf club that had just opened. He wanted to observe the geographical layout of the place so that he could figure out what they'd use to finish him off.He figured it out very quickly, but he was speechless.It was a cliff, again.They wanted to make it look like he had lost his footing and fallen into the water.They would be riding horses, after all, but horses had a rebellious streak. If they ran over the cliff, it would be pronounced an accident.He could tell that they had done this very secretively. Alec even suspected that this turf club was prepared specially for him. No one would choose a place like that for horses. A fool could tell that it was an accident-prone place.If he didn't prepare himself beforehand and figure out that they would hurt him, he might actually

    Alec had already changed his clothes and selected his horse."Let's go." Luke trotted over on his ride, raising his eyebrows at Alec.Alec smiled and got up the horse's back. They went toward the racing track not far off.The race began quickly. There were quite a number of people watching them, curious to know about their relationship with each other.The media said that they were like fire and ice, but they didn't seem too bad.Alec rode on his horse. Luke suddenly neared him and said in a not-so-soft voice, "Do you know what day it is, Alec?"Alec said nothing. Luke continued, "It's the day that you die."Luke then whipped his horse so that his horse would surpass Alec's. He rushed toward the mountains.Alec smiled lightly, not expressing too much emotion. He knew Luke was intentionally provoking him, but he went over anyway. How could they have the chance to kill him if he didn't?The people around them watched them disappear into the mountains. They were surprised. "Why d

    Luke felt embarrassed. It was indeed his plan. Although he had run it past his father, he had not offered any suggestions for improvement. It led to Luke thinking that his plan was perfect.But now, it seemed that his plan was far from perfect. He hadn't even investigated Alec's abilities."Don't you dare get too excited!" Luke gnashed his teeth and waved his hand. The people hidden in their surroundings rushed forward.He had other things prepared. So what if Alec was good at combat? He couldn't possibly win against everyone here.Alec was a little more impressed now that he saw Luke's other preparations. He wasn't as stupid as he thought.Although he looked relaxed on the outside, Alec knew he would have to put a lot of effort into knocking all those people out. What was more, he feared that he would lose much of his energy after he was done.As the thought played in his mind, he was already battling with Luke's henchmen. He was the only one fighting for himself against a group

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    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 plan 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 welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
