Thank goodness she never told him...
Otherwise, it would have been a total self-embarrassment!
...
The next day, bright and early.
As soon as Sherilyn stepped downstairs, she spotted Gilbert's Bentley parked outside.
"Sherilyn." Gilbert got out of the car, striding toward her with authority, "I'm here to give you a lift. I have to head out to Sunhaven this afternoon, just wanted to let you know in person."
"Gilbert."
Sherilyn couldn't help but chuckle at his demeanor; she was utterly exasperated.
"Some things, though I didn't say them last night, I thought you'd understand. We're done."
"We're not done."
Gilbert frowned, shaking his head, "I've kept my promises to you; you have no reason to call it quits."
"?" Sherilyn was flabbergasted, her eyes wide in disbelief, "Have you forgotten that just last night you were defending Caroline?"
"I was merely stating facts, not defending her."
Gilbert shook his head calmly, "I did it for you, not for her."
"!!"
Sherilyn was so shocked she was speechless.
Furious, she glared at him non-stop, "What's the point? We keep fighting over Caroline. If you're not tired of it, I am!"
"I admit, I used to."
Gilbert nodded, then shook his head again.
"But this time, I didn't. It's you who doesn't trust me. I did it for you, not to protect her."
He said, while gently pulling her hand towards the car.
"You might not trust me now, but everything will come to light regarding Saul's issue, and then, you will believe me."
"Enough!" Sherilyn's lips curled, and she suddenly shouted, "Stop talking!"
"Sherilyn..." Gilbert froze, not expecting her to be so agitated.
"Can you not?"
