Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 371

Rebecca was sobbing uncontrollably, and Sherilyn found it hard to say anything more.

As she walked out of the apartment building, she couldn’t shake off her gloominess.

Gilbert Johnson was driving, mindful of her mood, trying to offer some comfort. “Still worried about your friend?”

Sherilyn didn’t respond, just nodded.

“Look, don’t take this the wrong way.” Gilbert tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, “She’s just a friend. It’s good to care and to help, but at the end of the day, it’s her life, not yours. You can’t live it for her. Try not to worry too much, okay?”

“Yeah.” Sherilyn nodded, still downcast, her gaze fixed on the car window.

She couldn’t quite understand.

What was she missing? She couldn’t figure it out.
