Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 145

The moment the spray hit her mouth, Sherilyn felt a bitterness so intense it seemed to drill straight into her brain. It was indescribably awful!

“Ugh…”

As if he anticipated her next move, just as she turned her face away, Gilbert reached out and firmly covered her mouth with his hand. His expression was stern, his glare intimidating.

“Bitter medicine is good for you; don’t even think about spitting it out!”

Sherilyn was flabbergasted. No, she couldn’t bear it; it was just too bitter! She grabbed his hand, trying to pull it away.

“Sherilyn, being naughty, are we?”
