Gilbert nodded, his smile faint. "Don't mention it."

He looked down at her, his gaze so intense it seemed almost tangible.

Sherilyn felt a flutter of nerves and awkwardly turned her face away to avoid his gaze.

Gilbert's smile faltered for a moment. "I'll go check on Jenna."

As he stepped inside, Rebecca White rushed over to Sherilyn, phone in hand.

"Sherilyn, look!"
