Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 61

"Seriously, I scared you?"

The bathroom door flew open, and there was Gilbert. He saw Sherilyn and Yates chilling on the couch, smiling at each other.

Instantly, he froze. His gaze landed on Sherilyn. Due to the height difference, she was looking up, her lips curved into a gentle, warm smile. He couldn't recall ever receiving such a look from her. To him, she was an endless string of nagging and questioning. It turned out she could smile like that, just not for him, but for another man!

Suddenly, Gilbert felt a ripple of displeasure, marching straight toward the sofa, sparing Yates a glance. "You're here."

He completely ignored Sherilyn.

Yates nodded at him. "Yeah."

The room door opened, and Allen and Abel arrived with breakfast. Gilbert had expected Yates' visit, so he got an extra portion, but Sherilyn's presence was a surprise.

As Allen put down the breakfast, he admitted, "There's only two."

Upon hearing that, Yates hurriedly offered, "No worries, Sherilyn. Come have mine."

Sherilyn? Gilbert was stunned. When did they get so close?

Sherilyn turned it down. "No, thanks, I'm good."
