Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Sherilyn turned her head in confusion, catching Callie's gaze full of mirth.

Despite her smile, the hostility wasn't any less than when she was facing Caroline.

Sherilyn was puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"What do I mean?" Callie lifted her chin, nodding towards the door. "Your boyfriend just walked in, and he didn't even spare you a glance. Hilarious, isn't it?" She couldn't help but laugh, eyeing Sherilyn with a sense of superiority.

"When I left Sunhaven, I thought Gilbert was completely hung up on Caroline! And to hear he got himself a girlfriend after I went abroad... and it's you? Wow!" Callie's tone was dripping with scorn.

"Pretty, sure, but pity, you still lost to Caroline! Gilbert doesn't really care about you!"

Sherilyn processed her words.

It sounded like Gilbert's old acquaintance, someone he knew from childhood.

But she didn't have any memory of her; probably, Callie had gone abroad before Sherilyn was adopted by the Johnson family.

"Sherilyn!" Callie flashed a seductive smile. "Since Gilbert isn't serious about you, I won't hold back!"

With that, she flipped her hair and left.

Sherilyn couldn't help but chuckle. So, Callie had a crush on Mr. Gilbert. The man sure had quite the love life.

Exiting the gym, Gilbert glanced at Caroline. "Besides your face, where else did you get hurt? Can you walk on your own?" "Hmph."
