Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 917

"Absolutely, I'm all in!"

Karol's response was swift, her eyes sparkling with delight, "Working with Sherilyn? That's fantastic..."

Her smile widened even more.

"Mr. Harrison, you can count on me. I'll take good care of Sherilyn for you!"

"Good."

Gilbert nodded, a satisfied smirk playing on his lips.

He instructed, "Sherilyn can be quite the stubborn one, never wants to bother me with anything. Keep an eye on her, and if there's any trouble, make sure to let me know."

In essence, Karol was to be Sherilyn's guardian angel on behalf of him.

"No problem at all!"

Karol didn't hesitate and agreed immediately, taking out her phone, "So... Mr. Harrison, shall we exchange numbers? It'll make staying in touch easier."

"Sure."

After a moment's thought, Gilbert agreed.

They exchanged numbers.

"That injury of yours..."

After putting away his phone, Gilbert gestured towards Karol's arm, "I'll have someone take you to the hospital to get that looked at."

"No need." Karol waved it off with a smile, "It's just a scratch..."

"Don't be like that."

Gilbert insisted, "You got hurt because of Sherilyn, I can't just ignore it. It's settled then."

He signaled to a bodyguard nearby, "Take Ms. Karol to the hospital."

"As you wish, Mr. Harrison... Ms. Karol, this way, please."

"Then, off I go." Karol's lips curled into a small smile, "Thank you, Mr. Harrison."

"You're welcome." Gilbert gave a slight nod, "Take care."

"Goodbye, Mr. Harrison!"

"Mhm."

...

"Mr. Harrison!"

"Mr. Harrison!"

The director and the brand's representative rushed over after hearing about Gilbert's arrival from the crew.

"We're so honored by your visit, sorry for not greeting you sooner."

"Please, don't mind our oversight."

"Aren't you tired of annoying me? First, it was Caroline, then Caroline's fans! Because of you, I'm about to lose my mind!"

Gilbert's face was a mix of confusion and hurt.

"The fans' issue, that's my fault too?"

"Isn't it?"

Sherilyn's smile was bitter, her eyes icy, "Didn't you hear what that fan said? That I stole Caroline's career and her man."

She chuckled sadly.

"I'm really tired, tired of anything related to Caroline! Her presence haunts me, leaving me no peace! And you, you're the biggest reminder of her!"

Her gaze was piercing, her words biting, "I'm sick of you!"

...

The next day.

Sherilyn was rudely awakened by her phone's ringing.

She had no plans for the day and was hoping to sleep in.

Picking up the phone, she noticed it was a landline number.

"Hello?" Sherilyn answered, puzzled, "May I ask who's calling?"
