To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex)
Chapter 1075 Impossible

Jenny's words were spot on, and Gilbert was left stunned and speechless.

It would be best if the child wasn't his so there would be no problems. However, if that wasn't the case...

Gilbert refused to think of the possibility.

"No idea because the child can't possibly be mine," Gilbert insisted. Nobody knew if he truly thought that way or simply refused to accept reality.

Frustrated, Jenny said, "Gilbert, you can use amniocentesis for a paternity test while the child is still in the womb."

"What do you mean, Jenny? Are you convinced that the child is mine?" Gilbert was unhappy. Why did everyone assume that the child belonged to him just because Marigold was pregnant? Jenny sighed, trying to keep herself composed. "Gilbert, even though this matter isn't certain, you need to decide. If the child is yours, what do you plan to do?"

That was what she wanted to know.

"Regardless of whether the child is mine or not, I won't accept it." He made his stance clear. For one, he didn't think the child was his. Even if it was, he wouldn't acknowledge it.

Before Jenny could say more, Gilbert added, "Tell Marigold that if the child is mine, she should abort it as soon as possible. Otherwise, I won't acknowledge the child even if she gives birth to it!"

"Gilbert..." Jenny didn't know how to respond.

"Am I too heartless?" Gilbert asked.

Jenny kept her mouth shut, silently agreeing.

Gilbert smiled bitterly. "Jenny, think about it from a different perspective. If you were drugged and became pregnant, would you accept it if the other person asked you to keep the child?"

His words seemed to make Jenny understand him a little better. However, she still had her own beliefs. "I was thinking, Gilbert, that you don't have someone you like, so why not try to like Marigold? If it works out-"

"That's impossible!" Gilbert interrupted. "If you were in my shoes, would you like such a woman?"

Before Marigold plotted against him, he had no feelings for her. He neither liked nor disliked her. However, ever since the incident, he had grown to detest her. Even hearing her name irritated him, let alone being with her.

Jenny had nothing to say.

She looked at Zack beside her, signaling for him to say something.

Zack noticed her gaze and finally put his cutleries down. "Gilbert, I think if you don't like her, you need to deal with the issue of the child as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles." "Zack!" Jenny shouted. She had asked him to persuade Gilbert to accept the child.

Uncomfortable, Zack explained, "Jenny, I think Gilbert is right. No one would like Marigold if they were in Gilbert's shoes."

"That doesn't mean we must get rid of the child!" Jenny was displeased.

"Well, before the child is born, all problems can be resolved. But once it was, who knows what Marigold will do? What if she uses the child against Gilbert? Aren't we enabling her if we do nothing about it?" Zack understood Gilbert's concerns. He didn't hold Marigold in good regard to begin with, and the actions she had taken were simply distasteful.
