Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 818

"Sorry, the meeting went a bit over time. Have you been waiting long?"

"No, not at all."

Sherilyn chuckled, "You're just in time for dinner. Let's head inside; it looks like a storm's brewing, and the wind's picking up."

"Alright then..."

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through, causing Sherilyn to yelp and cover her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Edgar bent down anxiously, instinctively reaching out to her.

"It feels like..."

Sherilyn blinked, trying to open her eyes but to no avail, "I think something got in my eye."

"Let me take a look!"

After a brief hesitation, Edgar gently held her head, asking, "Which eye?"

"The left." Sherilyn, with her right eye open, speculated, "It might be a speck of dust."

Her left eye was teary.

"I'm checking..."

Edgar carefully lifted her left eyelid.

"It's not dust; it's an eyelash."

"No wonder it's so uncomfortable..." Upon hearing that, Sherilyn moved to rub it.

"Don't," Edgar caught her hand. "You can't see it, let me help..."

"Okay." Sherilyn complied, lowering her hand.

Holding her head, Edgar peeled back the eyelid again and leaned in to gently blow.

"Is it better?"

"Not yet... Almost, it's starting to come out..."

Not too far away, Gilbert emerged from the garage, his gaze landing on Edgar, who had his back to him, with Sherilyn in his arms.

From his angle, it looked as if they were kissing.

"Gilbert?" Caroline glanced up at him, catching the jealousy and resentment in his eyes.
