Chapter 40 

What? Sherlyn was in disbelief. The town hall’s office had closed. 

It wasn’t her fault. She had walked for miles, unable to hall a cab. It wasn’t until she was almost downtown that she finally managed to catch ande. Still, she was too late. 

Suddenly, everything went black. Sherilyn shook her head, trying to fight it, but her strength gave out. Her eyes closed, and she fell straight toward Gilbert 

Thud. Sherilyn collapsed into his arms. 

“Hey!” Caught off guard, Gilbert instinctively caught her. 

“Sherilyn!” He spat 

tout her name, his teeth clenched as he said it. 

Wasn’t she the one who said she’d stop bothering him? And there she was, throwing herself at him? Classic Sherilyn, some things had never changed. She did this on purpose 

Gilbert shouted, “Sherilyn, I demand you get up now!” 

However, the person in his arms didn’t respond 

Gilbert sensed something was wrong and looked down. “Sherilyn? Hey! Wake up!” 

Still, there was no response 

“If you keep this up, I’ll have to move you” He lifted his hand, intending to push her away, only then realizing she wasn’t faking it. Her face was as white as a sheet. She had fainted 

“Sherilyn! What’s wrong with you? Gilbert started to panic 

Gilbert picked her up desperately and rushed to his car speeding to the nearest hospital 

In the Emergency Room, Gilbert asked, “Doctor, what’s going on with her?” 

“Severe menstival cramps. Its something a lot of women deal with, but her case seems really severe.” 

After examining Shenlyn and jotting down notes, the doctor looked at Gilbert “She’s young. Why are her menstrual cramps so severe?” 

Gilbert was at a loss. How would be know? 

The doctor didn’t press further but advised. “Menstrual cramps are not a minor issue, and hers are especially bad. I recommend a thorough check up after the patient wakes up to see what’s going on 

“Okay.got it” Gilbert frowned, nodding 

The doctor added, “We’ve prescribed some medication. You can go pick it up” 

“Okay“Gilbert took the prescription, stood up, and went to handle it, contemplating whether Sherilyn had ever mentioned suffering from severe menstrual cramps before. He realized he couldn’t remember any of it. His most vivid memory of her was her constant presence 

around him 

in the emergency room, Sherlyn had awoken, propped herself up from the bed, dressed, grabbed her bag, and left the room. 

“Hey” A nurse humed to stop het “Where are you going? Your boyfriend went to get your medication. Wait for him to come back for 

you 

Boyfriend? 

Was it Gilbert? She had lost consciousness while with him. But would he be so kind as to take her to the hospital? Regardless, it didn’t 

matter 

“Thank you, I know” Sherilyn didn’t want to cause 

use the nurse any trouble. “Til just sit outside and wait for him.” 

“Okay then” The nurse walked away 

by without further questions. 

Sherilyn, clutching her stomach, shouldered her bag and walked out of the hospital. 

After picking up the medication, Gilbert was heading back when his phone rang 

It was Sylvia 

Gibert answered the phone. “Hello, Grandma 

“Gilbert” Sylvia sounded groggy, just waking up. 

1 remembered something. Today is the death anniversary of Sherlyn’s grandma. We were supposed to pay our respects. Jesus, it slipped my mind” 

Sylvia instructed her grandson, “Gilbert, when you have a moment, please go with Sherlyn. The poor child hasn’t been able to pay her
