The city buzzed with whispers about Sherilyn’s tyrannical and wicked nature. In retaliation for his lost love, Gilbert abandoned Sherilyn abroad, cutting off all contact and leaving her to survive on her own. Four years later, Sherilyn returned home. She and Gilbert shared a brief, reconciling smile and agreed to part ways as strangers from then on.

Wait! Gilbert hurriedly called after her, worry etched on his face. What are you doing at the hospital? Are you feeling alright? Or is it Jenna?
