Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 669



Where was Sherilyn off to?

Gilbert furrowed his brow, quickening his pace.

"Gilbert." A crisp, slightly sharp voice called out from the side.

Turning, Gilbert saw Caroline approaching with a smile, still dressed in her stage costume, with Caleb in tow.

"Caroline?" Gilbert frowned, "What are you doing here?"

"Just here for work." Caroline glanced at Caleb with a smile.

"Mr. Johnson," Caleb explained, "Caroline, out of consideration for me, agreed to make a cameo in a couple of scenes."

"I got a call from Mr. Marshall at the last minute, and I couldn't say no to him. Luckily, I was free," Caroline added.

Before her trip to Switzerland, she had paused all her work, and hadn't scheduled anything upon her return.

Gilbert nodded slightly, "I see."

"Mr. Johnson."

Caleb then extended an invitation, "We're about to wrap up for the day. The crew is planning a dinner, and Caroline will be joining. Would you care to join us, Mr. Johnson?"

"Let's go together."

Caroline quickly made the decision for him, "Gilbert, I'm going to take off my makeup. Wait for me, it's settled then." "Alright."

Gilbert couldn't refuse, merely nodding in agreement.

As she left, Gilbert turned to look for Sherilyn, but she was nowhere to be seen. Had she run off at the sight of him?

"Mr. Johnson." A timid voice came from nearby.

Gilbert looked over, not recognizing the person, "And you are?"

"Um..." Karol's face stiffened into an awkward smile, "Mr. Johnson, I'm Karol, an artist with Nexus Media Group." "Oh."

Gilbert remembered then, Charles had mentioned her, but he hadn't managed to match faces to names just yet.

He nodded, not intending to engage further with Karol.

"Mr. Johnson," Karol pressed on, "Are you looking for Sherilyn?"

Hmm? Gilbert raised his eyebrows, giving her a direct look, "Do you know where she is?"

"Yes." Karol nodded, holding up her.

"Not feeling well?"

Gilbert's brow furrowed at once, "What's wrong with her? Where does it hurt?"

"Don't worry."

Karol hurriedly gestured with her hands, "It's just... Sherilyn is having her monthly visitor, I brought her 'that'."

With that clarification, Gilbert understood; Sherilyn was on her period.

So, she hadn't intentionally run away upon seeing him?

He remembered, Sherilyn always had cramps during her period, making her uncomfortable. Was she feeling unwell just now? Nodding at Karol, he urged her, "Go ahead, don't keep Sherilyn waiting."

"Alright, Mr. Johnson." Karol smiled, "I'll head off then."

In the restroom, Sherilyn took the 'items' Karol had brought, thanking her, "Thanks."

It must be due to the recent acupuncture treatments, showing their effectiveness.

"Sure."

Once outside, the crew's cars were lined up, with Gilbert's Bentley standing conspicuously among them.

He was leaning against the car door and spotted Sherilyn as soon as she emerged.

Waving his arm, he called out, "Sherilyn! Over here!"
