“Mr. Johnson, you can count on me. Once I say yes, I’m all in. No hard feelings, no making life difficult for Sherilyn.”

“You believe me?” Daphne asked.

“Absolutely!” Gilbert didn’t hesitate for a second. Whether he truly believed her or not didn’t matter, for Sherilyn’s sake, he was going to show confidence.

“Ms. Hansen’s integrity? How could I doubt that? If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t have entrusted Sherilyn to your care.”

“What’s that?”

Sherilyn didn’t need to be burdened with complicated matters. She loved dancing. That’s where her heart should be, fully immersed in her passion.

Daphne was surprised by his request. This man… going to such lengths for Sherilyn and choosing to keep it a secret?
