Chapter 749 Future Wife

Jenny's ward was quickly crowded with visitors.

Graham's eyes were wet with tears as he gazed at his daughter still passed out on the

hospital bed. "Is Jenny...'*

"She'll be alright, sir," Gilbert reassured him. He still respected Jenny's father even though

they'd barely met.

Stephanie and Jade were visiting, too, as news of Jenny being hospitalized had spread far

and wide. Sadly, they couldn't do much before when she was in trouble.

Everyone was glad to hear that Jenny would be fine.

"Why don't you all head home first? I'll stay back to keep her safe. She'll be fine, I

promise," Gilbert spoke up.

The visitors soon dispersed. As much as they'd like to stick around, they couldn't protect

Jenny or be of use to her in this state.

However, Graham was reluctant to leave. "Why don't you leave first, too? I'll stay watch

here."

"I think it's best if you let me do this, sir. Jenny would only get upset at me if she knew you

stayed up for her," Gilbert insisted.

Graham was about to respond when Evan said, "You don't have to worry, sir. No harm will

come to Jenny with us here."

"And you are?"

"Evan Clarke. We grew up together with Jenny."

Graham nodded. It seemed the only people who really deserved to be by his daughter's

side right now were her childhood friends. If only he hadn't sent her away all those years

ago...maybe, he would've been one of the closest people in her life right now.

He shook away these thoughts. There was no point lingering in the past.

Before Graham left, he still had some of his men stay guard in the vicinity of the ward, just

in case.

Evan scoffed. "What a class act. First, he leaves his only daughter in a village on the

grounds of it 'being for her own good.’ Now, he tries to act like some model father figure."

"Mr. Walter had his reasons." Gilbert could empathize with the man.

But Evan disagreed. "What reasons? So he could pursue power and influence for his

'family*? He would've made it work if he had let go of his claim over the Walter inheritance

and left the city with Jenny."

Gilbert said nothing because Evan had a point. Still, it really was up to someone to make

the choice. That was something even he couldn't interfere with. Maybe Graham thought

being stronger was the only way to keep his family safe.

"Alright, you can leave now. I'll stay here to look after her." Evan waved his hand

nonchalantly at Gilbert.

Gilbert looked at him in surprise. "You're...kicking me out?"

"Of course I am. How else can I develop my relationship with Jenny later when she wakes

up?" Evan asked, grinning.

The moment he said this, reluctance swelled in Gilbert's chest. But Evan once again had

an excellent point.

With a sigh, he said, "Fine. But make sure nothing happens to her, you understand?"

"I know. I can't possibly let harm come to my future wife." Evan made a shooing motion at

Gilbert, then gazed lovingly at Jenny on the bed.
