Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 994

Gilbert's tone suddenly dropped, his eyes narrowing, "Grandma, this missing money... is it related to Sherilyn?"

"Don't understand, do you?"

Sylvia grabbed the stack of papers and pointed to a line among them, a series of numbers: "This is Sherilyn's offshore account number."

After the old lady finished speaking, her gaze shifted toward Caroline.

And Gilbert got it almost instantly!

Sherilyn's offshore account number had been empty for the past few years! What did this mean?

Following Sylvia's gaze, Gilbert turned to Caroline.

In his look, there was shock, but even more, there was questioning!

"What's going on here?"

Gilbert stared at her, as if he was seeing a stranger, "Did you do this?"

"Gilbert, I…"

Caroline shook her head weakly, her face not just pale, but tinged with a desperate shade of gray.

"Ha!"

Gilbert's neck stiffened, as if someone had hit him on the head with a blunt object.

He let out a cold laugh, a chill spreading in his eyes.

"I'm right here! Grandma is here too! Speak up! Why is Sherilyn's account empty? Where's the money? Where did it all go?"

Sylvia's adoption of Sherilyn wasn't just talk; the old lady had been generous to her.

A monthly allowance of $50,000 plus another $50,000 for personal expenses, making it $100,000!

That's a total of $1.2 million a year!

Over her four years in Crestwood, that amounted to $4.8 million!

Not to mention the extra cash gifts for holidays and birthdays.

Gilbert's lips curled slightly, his eyes darkening, his breath becoming heavier.

Firmly staring at Caroline, who was at a loss for words, his heart tightened into a knot.

"So, you're saying, during those four years in Crestwood, Sherilyn didn't receive a single penny!"
