Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 750

He had it all - a family, friends, an education, and responsibilities that tethered him to a world of care and duty...

But now, he found himself kicked out of the Johnson household.

Gilbert's gaze turned icy as he set the whiskey bottle on the table.

With a self-mocking smirk, he mused, "Happiness stolen is, after all, something you have to repay..."

He was never truly a Johnson, Sylvia was right about that; he was nothing but an impostor!

But he had his own family!

Gilbert paused, images of Sherilyn and Jenna flashing before his eyes - Sherilyn's allure, Jenna's cuteness.

...His beloved and their child!

Yet, Gilbert was uncertain. Would Sherilyn accept him?

He wasn't like Francis, a true blue-blooded gentleman. He was merely a stand-in...

A speck of dust!

Even the name ‘Gilbert’ wasn’t truly his...

"Sherilyn, Sherilyn..."

He repeated her name, lifting the whiskey bottle to his lips, drowning himself in its contents.

...

Sherilyn was burdened with worries these past few days.

Whenever she had a moment to herself, Galen's words echoed in her ears.

"Sis, I can save you."

"Sis, let me help you."

At night, after coaxing Jenna to sleep, staring at her daughter’s innocent face, Sherilyn finally made up her mind.

She got up and retrieved the business card Galen had given her.

Turning on her phone, she opened WhatsApp and added a new contact.

"Is that you, sis?"

"It’s Sherilyn. When can we meet?"
