Chapter 392


    "Can''t do it, huh?" Sherilyn wasn''t finished yet. With a sly smile, she continued, "If you can''t manage that, there''s another way." "What?" Gilbert''s eyes snapped up, a flicker of hope?


    Sherilyn let out a soft, barely noticeable scoff. "This one''s even simpler."


    She lifted her hand, hooking Gilbert''s tie and winding it around her finger, looping it over and over.


    "Just promise me, from now on, you won''t see her in secret. Anything to do with her, you''re not to interfere! Can you do that?"


    Compared to the earlier ''apology,'' this was equally impossible.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Sherilyn." Gilbert tried to exin, "Caroline and I have grown up together. She means a lot to me..."


    "Can''t do it, can you?"


    Sherilyn wasn''t buying his excuses, waving him off, "If you can''t, you can''t. Why bother saying more?"


    Of course, she knew he couldn''t do it. What she wanted was for him to fail!


    "See?" Sherilyn sighed in feigned disappointment. "It''s not that I''m not giving you a chance, you just don''t have any sincerity. Well, it looks like it''s over for us."


    Her hand withdrew, releasing his tie. "Honestly, you''re not irreceable. You just need a shield; any woman would do. With Mr. Gilbert''s credentials, just a wave of your hand, and you''d have your pick of women, no? So, I wish Mr. Gilbert the best in finding a new girlfriend soon. Bye-bye."


    With a wave of her hand and a smile that quickly faded to an emotionless face, she turned and walked away.


    Gilbert watched her leave, his gaze darkening.


    The next day.


    Sherilyn didn''t go to the dance studio; she had a photoshoot for a promotional poster about the dance group, with an external team hired for the job.


    By the time she arrived, Reba and the makeup artist were already there.


    "Reba, am Ite?"


    "Not at all." Reba made a face, gesturing inside. "Not sure if we can even shoot today. Let''s wait and see."


    "What''s the issue?"


    "Look." Reba whispered.


    It was a problem with the location.


    The previous group was still using it. And with just ten minutes to go, there was no sign they were wrapping up.


    The dance group definitely couldn''t start on time.


    "It''s a big star," Reba said with a gossip-thirsty tone, her voice even softer.


    "Who?" Sherilyn, amused, joined in the gossip.


    Reba said, "Caroline."


    Oh?


    Sherilyn paused, her eyes flickering in recognition. That was indeed a big star.

    Reba grimaced, "Big stars really do y by their own rules, going head-to-head with a director."


    With the location taken, they were stuck doing nothing. Sherilyn smiled, "I''ll head to the restroom then." "Sure, go ahead."


    Sherilyn turned towards the restroom.

    Sherilyn hadn''t expected to run into her; it was just like the saying, ''enemies often cross each other''s paths.''


    "Thanks." She managed to say, face expressionless.


    "Take care."


    As Sherilyn took a step, Caroline lifted her leg, stretching it towards Sherilyn''s path...
