Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?



"Cut the act!"

Gilbert wasn't having any of her explanations.

His anger unabated, he demanded coldly, "What's your beef with Sherilyn? Why would you do this to her?"

It was clear arguing was futile...

"Why?"

Karol's eyes reddened as she let out a bitter laugh, "Why? Are you seriously asking me why? Do you really not know?"

Gilbert was perplexed, his mind flooded with questions. What was he supposed to know?

"Ha ha..."

As Karol laughed, tears began to fall.

"Mr. Harrison, have you forgotten? It was supposed to be me by your side!"

Gilbert was confused, "What are you on about?"

"I'm not!"

Karol cried out, "You've forgotten! That day, you called me to your office, claiming I was your girlfriend... If it hadn't been for Sherilyn showing up out of the blue, it would've been me with you right now!"

What?novelbin

Gilbert paused, remembering...

Sherilyn had mentioned something about this earlier today.

"Are you out of your mind?"

Gilbert's brows furrowed, utterly baffled, "That was the first time I met you! I only took you to a gala!"

Before and after that, he hadn't given her a second glance, let alone any interaction!

How could she have deluded herself so much?

"I'm the crazy one?"

Karol, tears streaming, continued.

"Yes, I did it, I was the one who instructed Saul to steal the video, to upload it online! It was also me who bribed the cleaner, to put the love potion in your room..."

She suddenly stopped crying, chin held high, looking straight at Gilbert.

"So, what are you going to do to me?"

At the doorway, Sherilyn rushed over.

Exiting the elevator, she saw the Harrison family's bodyguard stationed at Gilbert's door.

He said he was leaving, didn't he?

There must be something going on, something to do with Karol!

Sherilyn hurried forward and, as expected, was stopped by the bodyguard, "Ms. Gomez!"

"Move!" Sherilyn frowned, sensing trouble. "Don't you know who I am? Am I not allowed in?"

Of course, the bodyguard knew this was Mr. Nine's lady love...

"Ms. Gomez, could you please wait while we notify them?"

The lead bodyguard grabbed Sherilyn's arm.

Sherilyn gave him a look, a slight smile playing on her lips, "You dare to touch me? Guess what Mr. Nine would do if he found out? He wouldn't let anyone else so much as touch a hair on my head!"

"Ah!"

The bodyguard jumped, releasing her immediately.

"Hmph." Sherilyn snorted coldly, taking the opportunity to slip past him and straight inside.

Karol, with a face of obsession tinged with grievances, locked eyes with Gilbert.

"You won't do anything to me because, I figure, you wouldn't want Sherilyn to find out about us sleeping together, right?"

At this point, it was her last straw!

It was clear, although Gilbert had discovered the love potion incident, due to a twist of fate, he was

unaware of who he had spent the night with...

Gilbert's gaze hardened, "You're threatening me?"

"What else can I do?"

Karol gave a wry smile, "To you, we're both just women, but you only have eyes for her!"

"Shut up!"

Gilbert couldn't stand to hear
