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.

Getting out of the car, he looked a bit anxious, “Have you been waiting long?”

“Not at all,” Sherilyn shook her head, bending to get into the car, “It’s no big deal for me to come early. You’re so busy, you didn’t have to come pick me up. I could have made my way there.”

She had said as much over the phone earlier, but Gilbert hadn’t agreed.

Hearing her say it again made him slightly upset–was it really a matter of necessity?

Gilbert closed the car door, frowning slightly. “Sherilyn, I wanted to pick you up, and I should pick you up, you know?”

He was her boyfriend, after all, Wasn’t it his basic right and duty to do so?

Sherilyn sensed his displeasure but didn’t understand the reason, and frankly, she didn’t bother to ask.

She nodded, feigning understanding. “Got it.”
