Gilbert’s face was looking all broody like a tempest tossing, his response was super vague. “Looks like we’ve got a bit of a misunderstanding here.”

Gilbert’s voice dropped, a clear sign of his displeasure as he interrupted her, brows knitted tightly. “Don’t talk about her like that. Sherilyn isn’t unreasonable. If she misunderstood something, she had her reasons.”

Caroline was initially shocked, but complex emotions soon flooded her, indescribable yet causing a tingling sensation at her fingertips.
