Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 249

Sherilyn led Edgar to the bustling snack alley in the backstreets of the film and TV theme park, which also served as a tourist attraction.

The air was filled with the enticing aromas of various street foods, each stall vying for attention with its unique offerings.

"Anything in particular you want to try?" she asked, her eyes scanning the vibrant displays.

"Just get whatever you like," Edgar replied, more interested in the company than the food.

Sherilyn decided. "Let's get some blueberry pies. With the weather getting chilly, nothing beats warm, freshly made pies."

"Sounds good to me," Edgar agreed, appreciating the thought.

Sherilyn called out to the vendor, "Two blueberry pies, please!"

"Coming right up!" the vendor responded cheerfully.

After paying, Sherilyn proudly held up the two steaming pies and handed one to Edgar. Misunderstanding her gesture, Edgar leaned in and took a big bite right from her hand, only to yelp at the unexpected heat.

"Hot, hot, hot!"

Despite the discomfort, he couldn't bring himself to spit it out since Sherilyn had bought it. Grimacing, he covered his mouth, trying to cool the burning sensation.

Sherilyn couldn't help but laugh at his flustered reaction, earning a mock glare from Edgar, his words muffled, "You're laughing at me?"

"No, of course not..." she said, trying to keep a straight face. "Is it good, though?"

"Mhm," Edgar managed, his expression softening. "Sweet and warm."

Just like her.

...

The next evening at the Platinum Pearl Club, Gilbert and Derek were already engaged in a game of pool when Yates Elliott walked in, with Edgar trailing behind him.

Gilbert shot Edgar a curious look. Wasn't he supposed to be with Sherilyn? Don't couples usually have plans in the evening?
