“Thanks.”

How could Sherilyn admit to that? She still needed something from him.

Compared to the storm of fury he was before, Gilbert now seemed like a completely different person.

Teasing her, he asked, “What, thinking I’m some kind of bogeyman, or worse?”

Before Sherilyn could argue, Gilbert grabbed her hand and pulled her closer.

Sherilyn nearly lost her balance, bumping right into his chest.

With one hand supporting her waist and the other gently brushing her hair behind her ear, Gilbert chuckled softly, “So what if I were a ghost? Seems like you still care about me, huh?”

Sherilyn’s eyes widened in shock. What? What did he just say? Since when did she care about him? She, the person in question, was unaware of this development.

Ahem. Gilbert cleared his throat, amused by the way she stared at him.
