Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 743

Leaving Blue Haven, Gilbert returned to the hospital, joining Francis in keeping vigil outside the room.

Sylvia didn't want to see him, but he felt compelled to fulfill his duty of respect.

To him, from the moment he was welcomed into the Johnson family and knelt before Sylvia, calling her 'Grandma', she was forever his grandmother. Outside the hospital room, Francis and Gilbert sat side by side.

"Caroline and Sherilyn stopped by earlier."

"Yeah." Gilbert nodded.

Francis glanced at his brother, remembering something, "I've already told Caroline about it. Sherilyn doesn't know anything, so I didn't mention it to her."

Back then, they had a narrow escape from death along with Caroline. From the moment they stepped into the Johnson family, that secret was buried deep within them... Who knew that eventually, the secret would come out...

Gilbert's expression was somber, and he remained silent.

"About Sherilyn..." Francis sighed softly, "You'll have to figure that out."

His origins weren't something that could be explained in a few words, and if it were to be told, it should come from him directly to Sherilyn.

The next day, at the usual time, Gilbert arrived at Sunset Ridge Community.

Sherilyn opened the door to find him with dark circles under his eyes, looking surprised.

"Didn't sleep well last night?"

"Yeah." Gilbert nodded, "Worried about Grandma."
