Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 264

Chapter 264 

“Sherilyn!” The call echoed behind her as she dashed away, not giving a second thought to anything but the need to escape. The pounding footsteps of Edgar followed, a desperate chase on the brink of a twilight drama. 

“Sherilyn!” 

In the car, Gilbert was idly scrolling through his phone, bored out of his mind, when the sudden sight of Sherilyn and Edgar, one after the other, caught his 

eye. 

What on earth? 

Before he could wrap his head around the situation, Sherilyn yanked open the passenger door and hurled herself inside 

“Drive?” Her voice was charged with an urgency that left no room for questions, a command rather than a request 

Gilbert was stunned. 

“Sherlyn!” Edgar caught up, pounding on the car window “Sherilyn, don’t do this… 

Through the glass, his words were muffled, Gilbert catching only fragments, his gaze flipping between Edgar outside and Sherilyn’s stormy presence 

beside him 

“Drive, will you??” Covering her ears, Sherilyn’s demand came as a low growl. “Didn’t you hear me? Gor 

“Oh. Alright” 

For the first time. Gilbert experienced a kind of ‘fear, an unusual surrender to 

her ‘command. With that feeling, he started the car 

Pulling away. Gibert caught the last glimpse of Edgar running after them through the rearview mirror 

“Tsk,” he muttered, a frown creasing his brow. “You’re really going to leave him? What in the world did you two talk about?” 

‘Drive faster 

Gilbert sighed. Fine. 

As the car sped away, Edgar’s figure shrank into the distance, disappearing from sight. Beside him, Sherilyn’s sudden movement, covering her face with her hands, caught his attention. 

Was she… crying? 

The thought that she might actually be heartbroken over Edgar stirred a mix of irritation and sympathy in Gilbert. 

“Crying over him? If you cared that much, you should’ve clung to him instead of running away.” 

Sherilyn flinched, removing her hands from her face with a swift motion. “Stop the car!” 

“Stop? We can’t just stop here!” 

“I said stop the car!” Her hands tugged at the door, desperation in her pull. “Let me out!” 

“Hey, calm down! It’s dangerous!” 

“Stop the car!” She shouted. 

Left with no choice, Gilbert complied, pulling over to the side of the road. Sherilyn didn’t hesitate, pushing the door open and stepping out. 

“Sherilyn!” 

Concerned, Gilbert followed. She had just cried and now was acting recklessly; anything could happen. 

Just as he feared, as Sherilyn stepped onto the road, a car came hurtling towards her. 

“Sherilyn!”
