Chapter 1302 Are you going to become a Priest?
After the issue between Janet and Zack was resolved, Jenny tried to meet Gilbert, but he declined her invitation, claiming to be busy. With no other option, Jenny decided to visit Gilbert’s company.
When Jenny knocked on the door to Gilbert’s office, he was still busy with work.
“Gilbert,” Jenny called, standing in front of his desk. “It’s lunchtime. Won’t you treat me to a meal?”
Gilbert didn’t expect Jenny to visit him. Nonetheless, he didn’t turn her away. Instead, he smiled and said, “Alright.”
He took Jenny to the company cafeteria. After moving his company to Bardoff City, things were going fairly well. The company had grown in size; hence, it was crowded during lunchtime. Being the president of his company had its privileges. Jenny followed him to the second floor, where there was a dedicated place for him to order food.
“What would you like to eat?” Gilbert handed her the menu.
Glancing at it, Jenny smiled and said, “The food you have here is much better than what we have at the hospital.”
“If you like the food here, you can always visit,” Gilbert said.
Chuckling, Jenny placed an order before she handed the menu back to him. After Gilbert had ordered, he turned to Jenny, asking, “Why did you suddenly come looking for me? What happened?”
“Nothing, Gilbert. Must something happen for me to look for you?” Jenny felt a little sad. Not only did Gilbert not take the initiative to visit them, but he also didn’t seem very happy when she came to him.
Gilbert shook his head as he didn’t mean it that way. Nonetheless, things had turned awkward.
After a moment of deliberation, Jenny decided to stop beating around the bush. “Are you still mad at me?” she asked.
“Mad at you? Why would you say that?” Gilbert didn’t understand. He didn’t feel like he had any reason to be angry with Jenny, even though he had found it hard to digest the things she had said to him.
Recounting the past events, Jenny felt guilty. “I was a bit too harsh with my words. You were just looking out for Zack.”
“Jenny, do you really think I’m that petty?” Gilbert was frustrated. Although Jenny’s words had been hard on his ears, they didn’t make him too angry.
“If you weren’t angry, why haven’t you visited Zack?” Jenny asked.
Her question rendered Gilbert helpless. “I’ve been busy lately,” he said, “and as you said, we all have our own lives now, so why should I visit him?”
“Gilbert…”
“Don’t worry, I’ve let it go, and I’m happy for both of you.”
Hearing him say that only made Jenny more worried. “Gilbert, are you alright?”
“Yes, I’ve never been better.” While he used to be worried that Jenny and Zack might end up with the wrong people, he decided to stop worrying and had never felt more at ease.
Jenny didn’t know what to say. While it was what she had hoped for, she felt that something was off.
Before she could speak, Gilbert said, “After you and Zack get married, I would like to do things I like.”
“What do you want to do, Gilbert?” Jenny asked.
“I’m planning to take a trip to Mount Wallington. I had a conversation with an old man, and it was because of what he said that I came to a realization. He is at Mount Wallington, and I’m planning to look for him,” Gilbert said.
Jenny was stunned.
“Gilbert! Are you going to become a priest?” Jenny couldn’t believe it. She wondered if she had misunderstood Gilbert.
