Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 559

"Sherilyn!" From the bathroom, Gilbert was calling for her.

"Coming!" Sherilyn hastily responded, quickly wrapping up her call with Joyce. "He's calling me, gotta check it out. Talk later."

Hanging up, she rolled up her sleeves and entered the bathroom.

Upon entering, she rolled her eyes at Gilbert, "What's up?"

Gilbert, all smiles, lifted his arms. "A bit of a pickle here, wouldn't you say?"

"If it's that bad, skip the shower. Hold out for a few days."

"And stink up the place?" Gilbert protested. "I don't mind, but I wouldn't want to subject you and the little one to that."

As he made to move closer, Sherilyn pointed a warning finger, "Stay put, or you're on your own."

"Okay, okay," Gilbert complied, grinning broadly. "Am I being good?"

Sherilyn didn't bother responding and simply pressed his head down, "Close your eyes, washing your hair now. Don't want soap in your eyes."

The news of Sherilyn's pregnancy had reached Sylvia, and Sylvia was over the moon, insisting Gilbert bring Sherilyn back home for a visit.

With the recording two days away, Sherilyn was swamped with work.

Gilbert waited outside the rehearsal room for her.

When the doors finally opened, he turned, searching for Sherilyn's figure.

"Gilbert!" Callie bolted out, heading straight for him and reaching to link her arm with his. "Did you come for me?"

Gilbert, unfazed, gracefully stepped back, his gaze fixing on Sherilyn as she emerged.

"Sherilyn."

Callie pouted, but Gilbert had already moved forward, taking Sherilyn's hand. "Tired? How are you and the baby doing?"
