Chapter 1003 No Way!
When Alec returned to the hospital, he found out that Jenny had already completed her
discharge procedures; her ward was empty. He went straight to the ward where Evan was
located, and as he had expected, Jenny was there. However, besides Jenny and Evan,
Gilbert was there too. He had probably come to visit because he had heard about Evan's
situation.
Alec didn't go in and sat on a bench outside the door. He didn't know what he could do at
the moment, but he couldn't just sit back and do nothing either. It made him feel a bit
frustrated.
Inside the ward, Gilbert looked at Evan with a complicated expression and said, "Don't be
too disheartened. There must be another solution."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yeah," Evan responded with little emotion.
"Regardless of what happens, you saved Jenny. If you really have to spend the rest of your
life in a wheelchair, we will take responsibility for it," Gilbert said.
Evan frowned and looked at Gilbert before saying, "Okay, I understand." He didn’t need
Gilbert to take responsibility; having Jenny take care of him was enough.
After a few more words of advice, Gilbert exited the ward and saw Alec at the door.
"What are you doing here?" Gilbert asked coldly. He was never friendly whenever he had
to talk to Alec.
Alec looked up at him and smiled. "Waiting for Jenny. What else can I do?"
"Why aren't you dealing with the mess within the Fausts instead? Jenny doesn't need you
to wait for her," Gilbert said disdainfully. During this time, he hadn't pressured Jenny to get
together with Evan anymore, so he'd kind of implicitly accepted Alec to be Jenny's life
partner. But he didn't expect Alec to fail to protect Jenny and nearly cause her to get hurt.
Alec didn't mind Gilbert's cold tone as he simply said, "I know she's busy taking care of
Evan and doesn't have time to pay attention to me. There's no need for you to remind
me."
"Evan was injured because of her. Shouldn’t she take care of him?" Gilbert could see that
Alec was greatly dismayed at the situation. However, he felt that Alec didn't have the right
to do so since he failed to protect Jenny, so everything that was happening was his own
fault.
"Didn't Jenny tell you? Evan asked her not to leave him for the rest of her life. Wouldn't
this mean she had to stay and take care of him for the rest of her life?" Alec sneered. He
really couldn't understand how Evan could ask that of Jenny.
Upon hearing that, Gilbert's expression instantly became grim. ’No way!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe knew that Evan had a crush on Jenny, but he never expected Evan to ask Jenny to stay
and take care of him. Wasn't he taking advantage of the situation by doing that?
Alec had a cold smirk on his face and didn't say anything.
"I'll get to the bottom of this. Jenny is my sister, and I won't let her suffer," Gilbert said
coolly. He turned around and walked back into the ward.
Soon, Alec heard the sound of an argument coming from inside. He could hear Jenny and
Gilbert arguing. Clearly, she was unhappy about Gilbert questioning Evan for making that
request.
Alec just listened and didn't leave or try to go in. He wanted to know if Jenny was willing to
stay and take care of Evan or if she was forced to do so.
After a while, Gilbert pulled Jenny out of the ward. Upon noticing Alec at the door, her
expression turned grim.
"Did you tell Gilbert about it?" she asked.
