Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

She had guessed it right; they had fought, indeed! After what happened with Edgar, how could they not?

It had escalated to the point where Sherilyn was hospitalized? The argument must have been intense.

Caroline pointed inside, "How's Sherilyn doing? She's okay, right?"

"She's fine." Gilbert's face showed no emotion and his tone was neutral as he calmly stated, "Sherilyn is pregnant."

"...What?"

Caroline's eyes widened in shock, her pupils dilating. "What did you say?"

She hadn't misheard, had she? Sherilyn was pregnant!

Gilbert glanced at her, repeating, "You heard right, Sherilyn's pregnant."

He looked at his watch, then added, "Anything else?"

His tone implied that if she had nothing more, he was going back to Sherilyn!

Caroline tugged at her lip, "No..."

Gilbert nodded, "Then I'll go in. Sherilyn could wake up any minute."

"Alright... Gilbert!"

Just as Gilbert turned to leave, Caroline stopped him again, Gilbert frowned in confusion, "Something else?"

Caroline forced a smile, "I just wanted to say, congratulations... to you, and Sherilyn."
