Chapter 330

 “This one’s totally guilt–free, you can have as much as you want.”

 Sherilyn was in a bit of a pickle. Her te was already loaded with a generous helping that Sylvia had served her. “Don’t add more to the chaos, I won’t be able to finish it all, and it’ll just go to waste.”

 “It’s fine,” Gilbert dismissed with a nonchnt shake of his head. “You go ahead and eat. Whatever you can’t finish, I’ll take care of.”

 Then, he shed her a grin.

 Across the table, Caroline watched the exchange, a bitter taste forming in her mouth.

 Was she even visible to this family anymore?

 Sherilyn lowered her gaze to her te, her long hair cascading down in front of her. Gilbert reached out to gently push it behind her ear.

 “I’ve got it.”All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

 She casually pulled out a hairband from her bag and twisted her hair into a quick bun.

 Caroline’s gaze froze–wasn’t Sherilyn’s hairband the exact same one Gilbert had lost the other day?

 She understood now. Was the hairband Sherilyn’s? Or perhaps, had Gilbert bought it for her?

 Either way, how intriguing, very intriguing indeed….

 As they neared the end of their meal, Sherilyn excused herself to the restroom.

 Upon her return, she found Caroline at the vanity, touching up her makeup in the mirror.

 Sherilyn didn’t bother with her and bent down to wash her hands.

 “Sherilyn.”

 Sherilyn paused, slightly taken aback, and looked up at Caroline. Did she just call her?

 “Could you?” Caroline asked with a smile, nodding towards her makeup bag on the countertop. “Can you grab me a makeup remover pad? My lipstick’s all smudged.”

 I

 Then she lifted her hands, both upied, “I can’t do it myself.”

 Sherilyn stared at her for a moment, took a deep breath, and opened the makeup bag.

 “There’s a small pink pouch in there, that’s it.”

 A pink pouch? Sherilyn didn’t see any pouch. As soon as she opened the makeup bag, she saw a hairband–identical to the one she was wearing in her hair!

 She abruptly looked up, ring at Caroline.

 “Hm?” Caroline feigned ignorance. “What’s wrong?”

 Sherilyn curved her lips into a smile, realizing the setup–Caroline wanted her to see this hairband.

 She narrowed her eyes and sized Caroline up.

 “Why are you looking at me like that Caroline felt unnerved under her gaze.

 With a soft, calm voice, Sherilyn expressed her admiration, “I’m quite impressed by you, aiming for both the brother and his sibling, huh? How do you manage to be so shameless?”

 What?

 Caroline was stunned, her face turning pale, “Sherilyn, what are you insinuating?”

 Sherilyn yanked the hairband from her head and held it up to Caroline, “You deliberately showed me yours, wanting to hint at your special rtionship with Gilbert, right?”

 “I…” Caroline was at a loss for words. That was her intention! She wanted to make Sherilyn ufortable!

 But…

 “Please.”

 The sarcasm in Sherilyn’s smile deepened. “There’s no need for that. I’ve known about your little secret with him for years. You really didn’t have to beat around the bush to remind me…”

 “Sherilyn, shut up!”

 Caroline, furious and embarrassed, didn’t intend to let Sherilyn malign her like this!

 “How can you be so vile? Gilbert and I grew up together. Qur bond isn’t something you could possibly understand!”

 “Hmm.”

 Sherilyn shrugged indifferently, “Doesn’t matter to me. I wasn’t trying to understand it anyway.”

 With that, she tossed the hairband into the trash can and looked up to find Gilbert standing at the doorway. having arrived at some point during their exchange.
