“Just saying.” 

Rebecca said with a smile, tinged with a hint of envy, “Seriously, Caroline hit the jackpot, marrying into the Johnsons, Sunhaven’s top family! And let’s not forget, Francis… he’s quite the looker.” 

“Really?” Sherilyn appeared puzzled, “You’ve met him?” 

“Sure have.” 

Rebecca reminded her, “Remember, that time you had that spat with Mr. Gilbert and he stormed off to Sunset Ridge Community? Francis was there too; he even gave me a lift 

home.” 

Reflecting for a moment, she praised, “Truly a gentleman, so refined and handsome!” 

Sherilyn made another trip to the hospital. 

This time, it was to get a prescription for fertility drugs. 

The doctor was a contact of Joyce Cooper. 

After failing to conceive last time, Sherilyn couldn’t let it go. “Doctor, I did everything you told me, but it didn’t work.” 

“Relax,” The doctor advised, “Getting pregnant can be tricky. Taking these drugs doesn’t guarantee success.” 

“I understand,” Sherilyn nodded. She knew he was right, but how could she not be 

anxious? 

“Do you need another prescription?” 

“Yes, please.” 

The doctor, unaware of her reasons, kindly advised, “You’re still young; there’s no need to put this much pressure on yourself. Moreover, these drugs shouldn’t be taken too often; they can have side effects.” 

Joyce had said the same thing. 

But Sherilyn felt she had no choice, “I understand, thanks for your concern. Sorry to trouble you.” 

Seeing that his advice was futile, the doctor wrote her the prescription. 

“If you feel nauseous or dizzy, make sure to rest.”

“Will do, doctor.” 

That evening, when Gilbert returned to Golden Oak Manor, Sherilyn greeted him with a beaming smile. 

“Welcome back.” She wrapped her arms around his waist, pressing herself against him. 

Gilbert took this as an invitation. 

With one hand supporting her lower back and the other cradling her jaw, he leaned down to kiss her. 

The passion was unbridled. 

But he remembered to ask, “Are you okay now? Can we?” 

“Mhm,” she nodded. 

And so, they made their way upstairs… 

Sherilyn was particularly enthusiastic that night. 

Gilbert held her close, overjoyed, “What’s gotten into you today?” 

“What do you mean?” Sherilyn played coy. 

“Ha.” Gilbert chuckled softly, nuzzling her neck, “It’s been a while. You missed me, didn’t you?” 

Sherilyn closed her eyes, remaining silent. 

“You don’t have to say it; I know.” 

Gilbert pulled her tightly into his embrace. “Sherilyn, you’re starting to like me, aren’t you?” 

Sherilyn remained silent. How did he come to that conclusion? 

“I’m thrilled,” Gilbert continued, seemingly in a world of his own. 

Isn’t it said that women are different from men? That if a woman doesn’t like a man, she would never initiate intimacy? 

As he pondered, he laughed again, “Earlier, you were all over me.” 

Wasn’t that proof enough of her feelings?
