After delivering such a lengthy speech, Sherilyn was seized by a violent coughing fit, bending over, her body hunched as if she might cough out her lungs. Gilbert watched, feeling as though his own lungs ached in empathy. He raised his hand, gently patting her back, waiting for her to catch her breath. "Sherilyn, I'm not with Caroline...

Sherilyn repeated her stance, "I don't believe you."
