Chapter 154


    “Grandma always hoped we’d end up together; she’d be over the moon…”


    “Gilbert!”


    Sherilyn got more and more terrified. Summoning her courage, she interrupted him, her face turning


    sheet white under the dim light.


    “Stop talking! Just stop!”


    He was being so bizarre! First, an unexpected kiss, and now he wanted her back? She didn’t


    understand his reasons, whether he was bewitched or had an ulterior motive, and she didn’t want to


    know… It was all his problem! She wasn’t ying along!


    Sherilyn forced a smile. “I disagree. I won’t being back to you.”


    Actually, that wasn’t quite urate. To be precise, she had never been by his side…


    “What did you say?” Gilbert paused, a smirk ying at his lips. “I didn’t catch that. Say it again.”


    She knew he had heard her loud and clear.


    “Stop ying games.” Sherilyn’s fingers curled into her palm. “Look closely, I’m Sherilyn, the


    woman you’ve always despised, the woman you sent abroad, and the woman you abandoned!”


    “I’ve changed my mind!”


    Gilbert looked at her so intensely, it felt like his gaze could burn her. “Come back to me. I want you


    now.”


    Sherilyn, lost for words, stared at the man so close to her, enveloped by his overwhelming


    presence, feeling fear and trembling. What was he saying? Did he realize how despicable he


    sounded? She was a person! Not something to be wanted or discarded at whim! But these words,


    she couldn’t bother to argue with him. Some things, they hadn’t said four years ago, and four years


    later, there was even less need to say them.


    “No…”


    32.00 chose


    She just stiffly shook her head, “I don’t want to.”


    Don’t want to? Still don’t want to? He had asked her nicely! Repeatedly rejected, Gilbert’s patience


    was running thin. His eyes narrowed, his gaze turning icy, “I was being nice about this; you better


    not push it.”


    Ha.


    Sherilyn silently scoffed. Even when seeking her, he maintained a superior attitude! What gave him


    the right?


    “I haven’t.”


    Sherilyn’s blood felt like it was freezing over, firmly shaking her head. “I don’t get you. Aren’t you


    into Caroline? You should be saying all this to her, not me!” As she spoke, Gilbert’s icy demeanor


    turned stormy. Everyone in Sunhaven knew about Gilbert’s unrequited love! It was, perhaps, the


    only regret in his twenty–something years of life. Anyone with a bit of sense wouldn’t bring it up in


    front of him. Especially since Caroline was now his sister–inw! She had hit a nerve!


    Seeing Gilbert’s displeasure, Sherilyn pressed on, “You like her so much, go after her… It’s not


    unheard of for brothers to step aside for each other if it’s


    true love…”


    “Sherilyn!”


    Gilbert’s voice, cold and detached, rang out, “Just because I’m being nice to you now doesn’t mean


    you can say whatever you want!”


    He’s being nice to her? That was the joke of the century! Sherilyn closed her eyes, an invisible knife


    twisting in his heart, “I truly hope that after all your waiting, you finally win over yourdylove!”


    What she really meant was, “I hope you two end up together and leave the rest of us in peace!”


    “Sherilyn!”

    Finally, her wordspletely infuriated Gilbert. His hand moved away from her face, suddenly


    balling into a fist. He was so angry, he felt like hitting someone!
