Chapter 87 

“Sherilyn!” 

Gilbert stared at her with deep eyes. Ever since she had returned, the one thing she seemed most adept at was–rejecting him! 

“Do you think I enjoy meddling in your affairs? I’m only doing this for Grandma.” 

At that, Sherilyn remembered. 

Sylvia had mentioned that Gilbert should treat her like a sister… Only if she was doing well could he successfully secure the divorce papers. 

Realizing she understood, Gilbert urged again, “Come on, hurry up and pack!” 

“No need.” 

Yet, Sherilyn refused once more. 

“Sherilyn?” Gilbert’s patience, already thin, seemed to 

want, exactly?” 

“Sigh…” Sherilyn let out a long, exasperated sigh. 

Iwith irritation. “What do you 

Calmly looking at him, she slowly said, “Didn’t Sylvia say you have to ensure I’m doing well? Then please, just watch me live my life well… Can I do this on my own, please?” 

“On your own?” Gilbert scoffed at her. “Don’t be ridiculous! Since you were fifteen… 

“That was in the past.” 

Knowing what he was about to bring up, Sherilyn coldly cut him off, “I’m grateful for the kindness the Johnson family, and Sylvia, have shown me. But rest assured, I can support myself now, I’m not the leech I used to be.” 

“Leech?” 

That word struck a nerve with Gilbert, his brow furrowing in displeasure. “Did I ever call you that?” 

Had he? 

For the bigwigs, stomping on the little guy is just all in a day’s work. 

A chill ran through Sherilyn, yet she chose not to argue, standing firm in her position, “I’m fine staying here, and I won’t move.” 

“Sherilyn!” But Gilbert wouldn’t let it be. 

“Do you 

you even know what kind of place this is? Serenity Street is no place for a girl on her own! The people here, it’s too mixed!”

Taking a deep breath, Gilbert stepped forward 

As he crossed the threshold, he still couldn’t let go. “Sherlyn, you

Sherilyn gave him a faint smile, her demeanor genuinely relaxed. “Don’t worry about Sylvie Since she’s already softened a bit, (1) talk to her I believe it won’t take too long 

Gilbert paused was that what he was concerned about? 

He wanted to object, but wasn’t that his concern? 

“Take care, it’s lante” Sherilyn smiled at him. “Be careful on your way 

Then she slowly closed the door 

Gilbert stood outside the world around him suddenly plunging into darkness. This godforsaken place! Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Forget it if Sherilyn wanted to live here, so be it it wasn’t his fault, if she was looking for misery, what could the possibly do?
