To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1373

Gilbert's heart almost stopped as Marigold groaned in pain.

"You—" Gilbert did not even know what to say. At that moment, he felt furious and was also in indescribable pain. However, he was feeling more worried.

He held Marigold tightly, afraid she would slip away from his arms.

Marigold could sense his nervousness as well. With a slight embarrassment, she said, "I'm fine. It just grazed me a little."

Yes, she was grazed by the bullet. Perhaps it was too dark, but the person who fired the shot missed.

Gilbert let out a sigh of relief when he heard that. What came after was rage. "Who asked you to take a bullet for me? Do you not want to live anymore?"

If the shooter didn't have a bad aim, Gilbert didn't even dare to think if Marigold could live or not.

"I didn't think that much." At that time, she was only thinking of not letting Gilbert get shot. She truly didn't consider too much about whether she would live or die.

Gilbert looked at her. He could not see her expression clearly in the night, but he still felt touched. He immediately picked her up and continued hiding.

"I'm fine. Put me down. I can walk by myself…"

"Shut up!" Gilbert was very pissed at that moment. However, it was not the time to reprimand Marigold. No matter what, he had to first confirm that they were safe.

Jenny's men came right in time. Alec was with Jenny, so both of them rushed over together. The gunmen were subdued very quickly. A few of them died, but a few were caught. Jenny walked to them and saw Gilbert hugging Marigold. She was a little worried. "Did you get hurt?"

She had already called for an ambulance when she came, so it should arrive soon.

"I'm fine—"

"She's injured." Gilbert cut Marigold off and ignored what she wanted to say.

In fact, there were not that many people who would attack him.

It was the Bradshaw family…

Gilbert sneered in secret. Were they preparing to get rid of him because they saw he was not planning to return? What an unusual tactic they had taken.

Gilbert brought Marigold into the ambulance and left. Jenny and Alec stayed behind to handle the rest of the matter.

Marigold sat on the stretcher in the ambulance while the doctor treated the injury on her arm. She was not severely injured, but Gilbert looked extremely sullen when he saw Marigold bleeding.

"Alright. Keep your arm away from water for a few days and rest," the doctor instructed. There was no need for her to go to the hospital at all.

When they got to the hospital, Gilbert insisted on letting Marigold have a comprehensive health checkup. Marigold was helpless, but she could only do as he said. She could tell that Gilbert was very upset. She felt it was better for her to just go along with him at a moment like this.
