Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 329

On a weekend.

Sherilyn arrived early at the entrance of Twilight Trail, waiting for Gilbert to pick her up.

Tonight, the entire Johnson family was planning to see her perform.

Her show was set to start at 8:20 PM, so Sylvia, taking charge as usual, suggested grabbing a meal at the Blue Plate Diner beforehand.

Gilbert pulled up less than five minutes later.

She nodded, feigning understanding. “Got it.”
