Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 321

Just as Gilbert was internally drumming up his courage, he seized the moment. Tightening his grip on Sherilyn's hand, he lifted it in front of Sylvia. "Grandma, Sherilyn and I... we're together now."

Then, turning to Sherilyn, he said, "Grandma might not take my word for it, Sherilyn. Maybe you should tell her."

"Sherilyn?" Indeed, Sylvia seemed skeptical, her gaze fixed solely on Sherilyn.

Under the intense scrutiny of Sylvia, Sherilyn took a deep breath, her lips curving slightly. "Yes, Grandma, we're together now."

"Ah!" Overjoyed, Sylvia clasped her hands over her mouth. "Really? Is this true?"

"Grandma, it's true!" Gilbert couldn't hide his smugness, raising his eyebrows. "Sherilyn said it herself, how can you not believe it?"

"I believe!"

Sylvia nodded vigorously, her happiness evident. "I'm just so thrilled! This is wonderful news!"

She was unclear about the recent turn of events. Had things not worked out between Sherilyn and Edgar?

But naturally, Sylvia’s bias was towards her grandson.

Seeing Gilbert's grin go from ear to ear, she could tell it must be good news.

Elated, Sylvia clapped her hands, coming over to link arms with Sherilyn. "If it were evening, I'd have to pop open a bottle of fine wine..."

The trio descended the stairs, laughing and chatting.

Gilbert hastened his step. "I'll have Cara prepare some hangover soup. Sherilyn's feeling a bit dizzy after last night."

"Oh." Sylvia paused, then burst into laughter.

"Look at you, all caring and concerned now! Ha..."

It seemed her grandson was serious this time.

Compared to his reluctance years ago, his thoughtfulness for Sherilyn showed he was truly invested.

At the entrance, Caroline wheeled in Francis, who was returning home. They were greeted by the sounds of laughter.
