Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 667



"Cryogenic freezing."

Gilbert repeated it lightly, a sneer hidden deep in his eyes, cold and mocking.

"You sure know a lot."

"Not really."

Sherilyn took his question seriously and answered truthfully.

"I've done some research recently. Cryogenic technology has become quite advanced. Plus, the success rate of IVF is really high these days..."

She wanted to give little Jenna a brother or sister. It didn't seem too difficult.

"Enough!"

Gilbert suddenly shouted, his eyes flashing with anger as he glared at Sherilyn, "Stop talking!"

"?"

Sherilyn was startled, her heart racing from the scare.

Why was he reacting this way?

Sherilyn frowned, "Are you, unwilling?"

That couldn't be. His affection for Jenna didn't seem fake. Could it be...

Sherilyn was puzzled, guessing, "Are you worried about Caroline?"

The more she spoke, the less sense she made! Gilbert's gaze trembled, fury building.

He raised his hand, pointing at her, "You, you..."

Struggling to speak, "Are you trying to infuriate me to death?"

Sherilyn was even more puzzled, "You really don't want to?"Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes!"

Gilbert was going insane! His face turning pale with anger, he replied to her, "I don't want to! Are you happy now?"

"..." Sherilyn opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words.

When she finally spoke, it was hesitant, "Why...? Don't you love Jenna?"

"My daughter, of course, I adore!"

"So..."

"Sherilyn."

Gilbert took a moment to calm down, concealing the turmoil in his eyes.

"I know, you've always been insincere towards me, and I never thought... to force you into anything. Even if it's for Jenna, if you're unwilling and choose IVF, I'll support you..."

So what was the problem? Sherilyn looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"But I'm not going to do any 'cryogenic freezing'!"

This declaration was definitive, resonating with finality.

"Why on earth..."

Gilbert looked at her unadorned face, his tone revealing hurt, "Why would you pair me up with Caroline?"

He said, "Caroline and I were never an item, not before, not now, and not in the future! Oh..."

It seemed he remembered something, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips.

Narrowing his eyes at Sherilyn, "You saw her leaning on my shoulder yesterday, didn't you? Answer me!"

Sherilyn knitted her brows, "I did see it, but..."

"Just as I thought."

Gilbert scoffed, shaking his head, "Then you should know, she wasn't interested in me. She was upset. about her brother and Rebecca White! Besides, did you see me holding her?"

Well, she hadn't.

Sherilyn pursed her lips, "You could have held her..."

"Sherilyn!"

Gilbert exploded!

He stood up suddenly, striding over the coffee table, and knelt on one knee on the couch.

He cupped Sherilyn's face with both hands, "But, I don't want to hold her! I want to kiss you, can I?"

"No!"

The moment his lips were about to touch hers, Sherilyn reacted quickly, covering his mouth with her hand. Refusing his kiss?

Sherilyn was taken aback by his brazenness, momentarily at a loss.

"Mommy!"

A childish, sleepy voice echoed in the room.

"Jenna!" Sherilyn glared at Gilbert, "Let go now! Jenna's awake!"

Gilbert raised an eyebrow, finally releasing her.
