Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 376

Just as Gilbert was about to speak, he hesitated

“Who’s there?”

Then, Sherilyn appeared, arms crossed, her long hair cascading down her back as she stepped out from the shadows.

Gilbert panicked, breaking out in a cold sweat, “Sherilyn…”

Gilbert spread his hands in a silent plea of ignorance.

She just laughed, a sly smile playing on her lips, her voice low, “Should I make myself scarce?”

Hearing her, Caroline looked up from where she was nestled in Gilbert’s arms, her expression a mix of surprise and confusion, “You… What are you doing here?”

Sherilyn found amusement in the question, her laughter deepening, “Is it so strange for me to be here?”

“Caroline.”

The tension was palpable as Gilbert intervened, “Sherilyn is my girlfriend.”

“I know.” Caroline nodded, though the acknowledgment did nothing to ease the surprise. Despite knowing, she hadn’t expected them to be living together–cohabitating, even! Sherilyn’s smirk was tinged with iciness as she looked at Gilbert, her chin lifted defiantly, “Seems like your darling here thinks I shouldn’t be around. Am I in the way?”

Then, as if rethinking her stance, she gestured upstairs, “I should head up.”
