Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 704

"Bye, Mr. Ed!"

"Bye, Jenna."

Edgar stood still, smiling as he watched them enter the house.

At a nearby crossroads, inside a sleek black Bentley, Gilbert gripped the steering wheel, his dark eyes intently focused ahead.

He had seen it all!

Even though he was some distance away and couldn't hear their conversation, the sight of Sherilyn hugging Jenna, both mother and daughter beaming at Edgar...

What they said, did it matter?

Pfft.

Gilbert let out a low scoff, his jawline tense, his expression icy.

What was Sherilyn up to? Really considering repaying a life-saving favor with... herself? And bringing along his daughter?!

No!

Gilbert's grip on the steering wheel tightened, his knuckles turning white, nearly on the brink of snapping!

No way. His daughter could not have another father figure besides him!

Meanwhile, Edgar turned away, ready to get into his car.

The moment he looked up, he paused. The Bentley at the crossroads, was that Gilbert's car?

No mistake.

That Bentley, parked here? Who else could it be but Gilbert?

Edgar frowned, wondering if Gilbert was here to bother Sherilyn again.

Inside the car, Gilbert also felt Edgar's gaze. With a cold laugh, he started the car, turned the steering wheel sharply, and drove away.

That night, some slept well.

That night, others were doomed to restlessness.

The next morning.

Sherilyn had just gotten up and was in the middle of her morning routine when her phone rang.

It was a message from Gilbert.
