Chapter 957 Aren't You Busy?

Author: Taylor
Jenny and Stephanie returned to the dining table to see Leonard and Alec chatting happily. It seemed that their cooperation was going well.

Jenny turned to look at Stephanie. She didn't get an answer to her question when she asked Stephanie whether she still liked Paul. Stephanie said she didn't know.

Although she had rejected that man many times, she would occasionally think of him and couldn't let go of their past as easily as she had imagined. It didn't seem right if she said she didn't have any feelings for him.

"Stephanie," Leonard called. He was sitting opposite her, looking at her. "What are you thinking about?"

He noticed that Stephanie's gaze drifted off, and she didn't react when he helped her with the food.

"Huh? Nothing," Stephanie said, feeling a bit embarrassed. There was no way she could admit that she had been thinking about Paul.

"If there's anything I can help with, let me know. Don't be shy," Leonard said. They weren't close to each other, even though they were

    Paul took a sip of his drink and looked at Alec, who sat across from him. "I'm here to have a meal. What else?""If Stephanie sees you, she might not think the same way," Alec retorted with a roll of his eyes. Stephanie was very annoyed with Paul constantly monitoring her, but he didn't seem to know how to control himself.Paul frowned at that comment. "What are you and Jenny up to? Are you two opposing me on purpose?" Even a fool could tell what they were trying to do."You're overthinking it. I met with Leonard to discuss the possibility of working with him. As for anything that's going on between him and Stephanie, I have no right to intervene," Alec replied. Before Paul could say anything, he continued, "However, what Jenny wants to do is her own business.""Her own business?" Paul sneered. "She's just nosy. What does my relationship with Stephanie have anything to do with her?""She and Stephanie are good friends. How is that none of her business?" Alec questioned.Paul

    As they couldn't continue the conversation, Alec didn't force it. "Don't worry, I meant what I said earlier. I won't interfere with what's going on between Stephanie and Leonard. But there's one thing I have to make clear." Alec then looked at Paul with a cold gaze. "If you dare to lay a finger on Jenny, don't blame me for disregarding our brotherhood."He knew Paul well. If Jenny brought Stephanie and Leonard together, Paul would blame Jenny for it. If that happened, there was a high possibility that Paul might resort to something irrational.Paul didn't say anything, so Alec stopped talking. Some things only needed to be said once.Alec got up and made to leave. "You should go back."Then, he turned around and walked back to Jenny. Whether Paul took his advice and left wasn't something he could control, so he wasn't concerned about it.After the four of them had dinner, they didn't rush to go home but strolled along the riverbank. Jenny and Alec walked in front, deliberately giv

    Behind them, Stephanie and Leonard walked together. The weather was freezing on this chilly winter night, and Stephanie couldn't help but shiver. She regretted agreeing to go for a walk with Jenny and the others. It was so cold! They should have gone home to rest instead of going for a walk. Stephanie questioned wordlessly in her heart as to why they were making themselves suffer.As she was complaining about the situation inwardly, warmth suddenly enveloped her. She turned and realized that Leonard had draped his coat over her."No, it's okay..." Stephanie tried to refuse and made to return his coat.But Leonard didn't give her the chance to do so. He held her shoulders firmly, not letting her take it off. "Keep it on. I'm not cold."Not cold? That was obviously a lie. Seeing how insistent Leonard was, Stephanie stopped refusing him. "Thank you.""Speaking of which, we haven't been in touch for over ten years. Have you been doing well all these years?" Leonard casually asked, t

    Stephanie didn't give Leonard a direct answer, but he wasn't discouraged. "Then you're in luck. You can see me often in the future." The implicit meaning of his words was obvious. It meant he would appear around Stephanie frequently in the future, giving her plenty of opportunities to see him. Stephanie didn't reply, as she didn't know how to respond, so she remained silent.The four of them didn't walk for long. After all, the weather was frigid that day. After Stephanie and Leonard had finished chatting, Jenny suggested that they leave. Alec sent Jenny home, and Leonard escorted Stephanie back.On the way to Stephanie's house, she and Leonard didn't talk much. During a moment of silence, Leonard noticed a car following them from behind. He had a worried expression on his face immediately, thinking it was someone seeking revenge against him. Making enemies was very common in his line of work. He sent the license plate number to his colleague to investigate right away. Soon, he

    The next day, Jenny was busy with work at the hospital as usual when she unexpectedly received a call from Evan. It was the first time he'd called her since the incident."Jenny, would you like to have lunch with me this afternoon?" Evan's tone was neutral, so Jenny couldn't gauge his emotions behind the question.She checked the time and realized she had two more hours to go before she ended her afternoon shift. Jenny thought she should be able to finish consulting her patients by that time, so she accepted Evan's lunch invitation. "Sure," she replied.After hanging up, Jenny continued to busy herself with work and didn't think much about why Evan wanted to see her.Two hours later, Jenny met up with Evan at the hospital gate."Sorry for being late," Jenny apologized. She'd been held up by a patient as she was about to leave. After she was done explaining some things to the patient, she ran a little late for her meetup with Evan.Evan didn't mind. He opened the car door of the

    Jenny didn't know what Evan was thinking. But when she heard Evan speak about his experience overseas, she naturally assumed that he hadn't been doing well during all those years abroad. As a result, he ended up going astray and taking the wrong path. She sighed and didn't doubt what he'd told her. "Then, what's next for you? What do you plan to do? Are you going to continue with your current path?" She had seen Evan's people suffer losses and thought it wasn't feasible for him to carry on in the same way. On top of that, she wasn't exactly supportive of him going down that same road. "I haven't decided yet." Evan smiled, but inwardly, he wondered what else he could do if not this. "Evan, now that you've decided to return to the country, let go of everything abroad and start again. Wouldn't that be better?" She and Evan grew up together, and although she wasn't as close to him as she was with Gilbert and the others, she still didn't want him to continue down the wrong path. T

    Jenny didn't quite agree with what he said. "Alec may be the mastermind behind the whole Xavier incident, but why did you agree? You know he's using you, yet you still agreed. Did you two reach some kind of a deal?"Evan wasn't stupid; he wouldn't have made a deal that would only bring him losses.At that moment, Evan was at a loss for words. Could he tell Jenny he didn't get anything from Alec in return? Alec had threatened to expose his identity to Jenny. He wouldn't have agreed to it if he hadn't been anxious about how Jenny would see him once she found out what he'd been up to.Who would have thought that Jenny would find out what he'd tried so hard to keep hidden so soon despite his efforts to cover it up?If he knew it would turn out like that, he should have just told Jenny the truth from the beginning. Then, he wouldn't have ended up being used by Alec."I'm grateful that you saved me. But at that time, I think Alec had no choice. After all, he didn't have as many men as y

    Helga's sister and Amy were already waiting at the operating room's entrance. When they saw Jenny approaching, they both hurried over."Dr. Walter, the surgery…" Helga's eyes were slightly red, and she couldn't even bring herself to ask the question.Jenny nodded to her and said, "Don't worry. I'll do my best.""Okay." She didn't say anything else, fully aware that words were meaningless in a life-or-death situation like this. The only thing she could do was pray hard for her sister."Dr. Walter, will my mom be okay?" Amy didn't know what illness her mother had, but she knew her mother was about to have surgery. Her aunt told her it would be painful, so she worried.Jenny looked down at her and smiled, "She'll definitely be fine, Amy. You have to be good, okay?""Okay, I'll be good and wait for my mom to come out." Amy nodded. She was around four or five years old and didn't really understand the concept of death.Jenny entered the operating room, and the surgery began.Handlin

    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
