Chapter 339

Gilbert couldn’t wrap his head around it. They were already this close… and yet, Sherilyn still hadn’t fully let him in..

“No way, that won’t happen with me,” Gilbert assertively countered without a second thought. “How can you be so sure?”

Sherilyn reminded him, “Mr. Gilbert, have you forgotten? I used to be around you all the time, and you barely paid me any attention.”
