Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 242

Sherilyn was flabbergasted and waved her hands dismissively. "No need, Mr. Marshall. Did you need something from me?"

Noticing her unease, Caleb looked puzzled. "You seem really tense. Is it because I wasn't able to step in last night? Given the circumstances..."

"It's not that." Sherilyn quickly shook her head. "I understand the situation. Both you and Director Blake were in a tough spot."

Caleb sighed in relief, his smile beaming. "I do need to ask a favor, though. Could you put in a good word for us with Mr. Johnson?"

What? Sherilyn froze, utterly confused. "Mr. Marshall, what do you mean?"

"Huh?" Caleb was even more surprised than she was, thinking she was playing coy. "Come on, Sherilyn. I know Mr. Johnson's taken a shine to you, but let's not forget who introduced you to this scene, right?"

Sherilyn was even more astonished. What did he mean by Mr. Johnson taking a shine to her?

"It's not like that," Sherilyn laughed, frustrated. "You've got it all wrong. My relationship with Mr. Johnson isn't what you think it is."

"What do we think, then?" Caleb and Blake exchanged knowing looks, waving off her concerns. "You're worried we'll talk? Don't worry. Considering Mr. Johnson's influence, we wouldn't dare."

"This..." Sherilyn tried to deny it, but then Blake dropped a bombshell. "Let me tell you something—Vincent's been blacklisted."

What? The news hit like a tidal wave, shock following shock!

So, from what Blake was hinting at, this was Gilbert's doing?
