Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 685

Suddenly, a heavy feeling sank into Sherilyn's heart. Her eyes froze, the light within them dimming.

If that was the case, then she knew... Gilbert wouldn't come, not for her. She might have had a chance alone, but in front of Caroline, she never stood a chance. Whenever it came down to choosing between her and Caroline, Gilbert had never chosen her... not even once!

Fear wasn't something she was unfamiliar with.

Tears welled up, her lashes quivering as she faced the person in front of her.

Trying to maintain her composure, her voice trembled, betraying her inner turmoil and fear, "What... what are you going to do to me?"

"You?"

The person lowered their gaze, shaking their head, "You're of no value to us anymore. Keeping you here serves no purpose."

What did that mean?

Sherilyn didn't quite grasp it.

Then, she saw the person approaching her, knife in hand, moving behind her.

Sherilyn felt a sudden relief as the ropes binding her hands were cut through!

Were they letting her go?

With her hands freed, Sherilyn quickly tore off the tape from her mouth and bent down to untie the ropes around her feet. The person spoke, "Ms. Gomez, the rest is up to you."
