Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 974

“You... Why do you think you can be all sweet with me? Have you forgotten? You betrayed me! Or, do you really think that by chopping off a finger, everything that happened before can just be swept under the rug?”

“I didn’t! I wouldn’t dare!”

Gilbert threw the covers aside and climbed out of bed, grabbing her hand.

In his eyes, there was a sea of guilt and remorse.

“I messed up. I’m begging for your forgiveness... Can you forgive me, please? I truly love you and Jenna!”

Sherilyn glanced at his left hand, and found herself speechless, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal.

Sherilyn closed her eyes, tears spilling over. “What’s done is done!”

Gilbert’s voice was hoarse with emotion, choking up, “I haven’t had a single night of good sleep... All I see, awake or asleep, is you, Sherilyn. I miss you so much, too much!”

“Hmph. Haha…”

Sherilyn’s face twisted, unsure of what expression to wear.

“Jerk!”

Sherilyn, filled with rage, lifted her hands, fists clenched, and started pounding on him with all her might.

“Why would you do that? Why?”
