Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 343

Seeing Gilbert staring intently at her dress, Caroline couldn't help but laugh. "Does it look familiar? It's the same one you picked out for Sherilyn, isn't it?"

"Uh-huh," Gilbert nodded hesitantly. Just similar?

Caroline gave a sheepish smile, "I should head over to your brother; if he doesn't see me in a while, he'll start fuming."

She picked up.
