"Sherilyn."

"Yeah?"

Out of the blue, Gilbert interrupted her, taking hold of her hand.

Sherilyn turned, surprised, to look at him.

He was already looking her way, grinning from ear to ear, showcasing his pearly whites, "Let's get hitched."

Sherilyn was gobsmacked. Her mind went completely blank!

It was like a bolt from the blue!

"You... what?" Sherilyn blinked, her lashes fluttering, "What did you say?"

"Didn't catch that?" Gilbert eyed her, leaning in until their foreheads touched, "I said, let's get married. Sherilyn, let's tie the knot, eh? How about it?"

Sherilyn's mouth slightly agape, was at a loss for words!

She had thought, sneaking off to see Edgar, might tick him off! But never in a million years did she expect this!

"Aren't you barking up the wrong tree?"
