Chapter 567 Gilbert’s Busy
But Jenny’s patients didn’t give her room to refuse. They turned and left, leaving her with all the gifts and items on the floor. Jenny sniffled, feeling touched to the core as she gazed at them.
It further strengthened her will to continue being a doctor to help others.
Focusing on her business and becoming heir to her family would make her richer, but this couldn’t top the satisfaction and pride being a doctor gave her.
Jenny ended up distributing the gifts to several other colleagues throughout the hospital. She hadn’t been the patients’ sole helper, after all.
After leaving the hospital, Jenny went to find Zack. She nearly thought she had mistaken him for someone else when they met.
Was this bespectacled, suited man really her brother?
“Jenny!’ he greeted warmly. When he smiled, Jenny finally saw that this was indeed her brother.
“You’ve changed so much, Zack. I nearly didn’t recognize you!’
“I’m now one of the upper class in Parrington, so of course, I have to dress the part.” The business was booming on his end. Because of its success, he had managed to squeeze into the Parrington’s elite. His youth and good looks had also brought about rumors that he was to be the next Alec Faust.
Obviously, that last part irked him to no end.
Couldn’t he be the next Steve Jobs instead?
Jenny went into his office with him, observing how things were being run.
Admiration for Zack flared in her chest. Some people were truly gifted with business skills. Gilbert was, and so was Zack—she was the only exception, it seemed.
Zack’s secretary made tea for Jenny. “Have a taste. I just got this shipped in,” Zack urged.
“Mm.” Jenny sipped on her tea, examining his office.
“Jenny, you’re here to say goodbye to me, aren’t you?” Zack asked. He had guessed as much.
Jenny nodded. “It’s not as scary as you think. I just need to go to Bardoff City for some time. I’ll still visit you now and then.’
“I’m not worried. Bardoff City isn’t far. I can always stop by too.” Zack shrugged.
Jenny agreed with him. It really wasn’t that far a journey from Parrington to
Bardoff City. “What about Gilbert? Didn’t he say he was coming back soon? I haven’t heard from him since.’
She hadn’t called him in a long while and had started wondering why Gilbert hadn’t returned.
Zack’s expression stiffened just the slightest. With a dry chuckle, he explained,
‘He’s busy settling some things overseas and won’t be back till after.”
“What kind of things?”
“I’m not too sure, really. Why don’t you ask him when he’s back?” Zack wasn’t going to get himself in trouble by telling Jenny what was going on. He’d never hear the end of it if he did.
Plus, Gilbert wouldn’t want Jenny to know about it, considering how much he values her.
Jenny frowned, finding things weird. But she didn’t pursue it further. “I’ll call him later.”
Zack didn’t refute, though he guessed Gilbert wouldn’t tell her the truth even if
Jenny did call him. Obviously, Zack couldn’t say it to Jenny. It was better he kept silent lest she figured out what happened.
