Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 1285

Suddenly, with a flick of his wrist, he flung the phone across the room. He yanked open a drawer, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and stuck one between his lips. He flicked a lighter and finally managed to get it lit. Taking a deep drag, he squeezed his eyes shut. The acrid smell of burning nicotine did nothing to soothe the turmoil inside him. He had to do something. But what could he do?

...

The event was a success. Afterwards, there was a dinner with the cast and the show's sponsors. While changing, Sherilyn sent a message to Nanson.

[Nanson, thank you so much for today. I really owe you.]

Her main purpose was to ask about the dresses.

[I've changed out of the dress. How should I get it back to you?]

He had likely borrowed them, so they would need to be returned.

[Should I have my assistant return it and give them your name?]

Nanson must have been busy, as his reply came a few minutes later.

[Just bring it to me at the hotel when you get back. I'll return it.]

[Okay. Got it.]

Since that's what he wanted, Sherilyn would do as he asked. The cast party lasted late into the night. When she returned to the hotel, she went to return the clothes to Nanson, but there was no answer when she knocked on his door. She sent him another message.
