Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?
Chapter 634

Just like what happened between her and Eddy...

Eddy's repeated acts of domestic violence and infidelity...

But, tracing back to the root of it all, it was she who wronged Eddy first, even if unintentionally. Speaking of which, Eddy's personality shifted dramatically, becoming distorted over time. He too was a victim of the 'wedding night incident'... Two women sat across from each other, replaceing solace in their shared experiences.

"Try this..."

"We're out of coffee, I'll go make some more."

"Sure."

Sherilyn had just stood up when she heard a knock on the door.

She whipped around, puzzled by the timing...

Knock, knock.

The sound of knocking was accompanied by a deep, masculine voice, "Sherilyn!"

Could it be Gilbert? He's back in Sunhaven? Glancing at the wall clock, it was past eleven.

"Sherilyn?"

Rebecca, sitting on the couch, urged her, "Why aren't you opening the door?"

"Oh, right."

Sherilyn snapped back to reality and hurried to the door.

Upon opening it, there stood Gilbert, wrapped in a black coat, his head lowered, grinning at her. "Sherilyn, I'm here."

His dark, sparkling eyes begging for approval reminded her of Jenna.

"Come in," she hesitated for a moment before stepping aside.

"Alright."

Gilbert stepped inside, pausing briefly upon seeing Rebecca, not expecting her presence. "Rebecca."

"Mr. Johnson."

Rebecca smiled, rising from the couch, and 'looked' towards Sherilyn, "Sherilyn, I'm feeling sleepy, could you help me to my room? I need to sleep." "Oh, of course."

Sherilyn promptly assisted her, and Rebecca chuckled softly, whispering, "Stay up with Jenna and watch the fireworks. See you next year Sherilyn."

"See you next year."

After Sherilyn returned, she found Gilbert

"Is Jenna asleep?"

"She's been asleep for a while."

Gilbert nodded, "Should I bring her out to watch the fireworks? I promised her, and I can't break my word."

Sherilyn was surprised, "Fireworks? Here in the city?"

Especially tonight, fireworks were banned in the city.

"Don't worry," Gilbert assured her with a calming look, "I've got it all arranged. Jenna will see the fireworks."

They tiptoed into Jenna's room. The little one was sprawled out on her bed, sleeping soundly like a little frog.

Gilbert bent down, carefully lifting her into his arms, ensuring she remained undisturbed.

Once outside, Gilbert gestured for Sherilyn to draw back the curtains and turn off the main lights. "Okay," Sherilyn complied, though with a hint of curiosity.

Glancing at the clock and then at the little one in his arms, Gilbert wondered aloud if it was time. "Sherilyn, look!"

She looked up just in time to see the sky burst into an array of fireworks, forming trees and flowers...

But the real surprise came when the next firework displayed Jenna's name...

"What are you waiting for? Take a video, we need to show Jenna tomorrow that I didn't lie to her." "Right!"

Sherilyn scrambled for her phone and started recording.

The light illuminated her face as Gilbert, holding his daughter, let warm smile spread across

"Merry Christmas," Sherilyn replied, glancing at him.

Suddenly, Gilbert leaned in, resting his head on her shoulder.

"Gilbert?" Sherilyn frowned, instinctively pushing him away. "Hey, let go!"

With a 'thud,' Gilbert found himself on the floor, still cradling Jenna protectively in his arms.
