Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 876

"Hey there, it looks like... Mr. Johnson caught his flight last night and should still be en route to London."

That made sense.

The flight from Sunhaven to London takes quite a few hours.

His phone was unreachable, likely because he was still on the plane.

"Thank you, I really appreciate your help."

"Not a problem at all."

Sherilyn felt cornered; of all times, her brother had to be away in London.

Glancing at the clock, she realized it was getting late and hurried off to the hospital.

On the way, Sherilyn mulled over her options. Perhaps she should pay that person the million dollars to keep things quiet for now?

Once her brother returned, he'd surely have a plan to sort everything out.

It seemed like the only viable option, as she hoped for her brother's swift return.

Upon entering the hospital room, Gilbert was still there.

"Huh?" Sherilyn expressed her surprise, "You haven't left yet?"

Was he waiting for her? But she had texted him...

Gilbert observed her closely, noticing her demeanor seemed better than the day before. Perhaps she had managed to resolve the issue? "I was just leaving."

Gilbert nodded, "Just finished breakfast with Jenna. That little one can be quite a handful, took a bit longer than expected."

"You should get going then," Sherilyn smiled back, "I'm free tonight, so you can come by later if that works for you."

"Sure thing."
