Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 659



It was Jenna!

Sherilyn broke out in a cold sweat, abruptly pushing Gilbert away, glaring at him with resentment for the mess he'd made! Gilbert gave a dry, awkward chuckle, insisting it wasn't intentional.

Both turned to look at Jenna.

"Jenna."

"Jenna..."

"Yikes!"

Jenna raised her hands to cover her eyes, grinning widely, "Jenna's just a kid, and kids shouldn't see kissing!"

While saying so, she peeked through her fingers.

"Jenna, don't be naughty." Sophia tried to hold back her laughter as she reached for Jenna's hand, "Mommy and Uncle will be embarrassed!" Sherilyn bit her lip, her face pale, frowning as she glared at Gilbert, "Aren't you leaving?"

"Uh, yeah, leaving." Gilbert, afraid of her anger, nodded quickly.

"Uncle, hug!"

Just as he was about to leave, Jenna stretched her arms out to him.

This... Gilbert hesitated, could he hug her?

"Uncle!" Jenna pouted, "I want a hug!"

"Alright." Gilbert no longer hesitated, unable to refuse his daughter. He extended his arms and lifted Jenna up.

He looked at Sherilyn, trying to appease her, "I'll drop you and Jenna off and then leave."

Sherilyn looked at the two, one big and one small. How could she say no? Jenna wouldn't let go of him.

"Uncle, mommy said yes."

Jenna, happy, leaned on Gilbert's shoulder, whispering 'secrets' to him.

Although it was a 'secret', the little one still lowered her voice, but others could hear her clearly.

"Uncle and mommy, are you going to get married?"

Huh? Gilbert was surprised, slightly raising an eyebrow, "Jenna, do you know what 'getting married' means?"

"I know."

Jenna nodded, seriously saying, "Getting married means Uncle will be Jenna's daddy! Only daddies and mommies can kiss, right?"

The child's understanding was simple and pure.

Gilbert couldn't say whether it was right or wrong, glancing at Sherilyn, mimicking Jenna's soft voice.

He asked Jenna, "Do you want Uncle and Mommy to get married?"

"Yep!"

Jenna didn't hesitate for a moment, nodding vigorously, wrapping her arms around Gilbert's neck, whispering in his 'ear'. "Jenna likes Uncle, wants Uncle to be Jenna's daddy!"

Hearing this, Gilbert stiffened slightly, a mix of sourness and bitterness in his heart, silently thinking: Jenna, Uncle is your daddy.

His Adam's apple bobbed, holding the little one tight, murmuring, "Uncle likes Jenna too, wants to be Jenna's daddy." "See! Uncle kissed Mommy!"

On the side, Sophia bit her lip, trying to suppress her laughter, stealing glances at Sherilyn.

Sherilyn frowned, the dialogue between father and daughter hitting her heart, stirring tumultuous emotions...

...

Two days later, Gilbert's medical results were out.

"From the X-rays, Mr. Gilbert is mostly fine now," the doctor announced. "Continue treatment for a few days, switch from IV to oral medication. After that, Mr. Gilbert can choose to stay in the hospital or recover at home."

tions."

With that, the Johnson family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Gilbert smirked at Francis, "The doctor said I need to rest, so I'll leave the company matters to you, big bro. You've got to take good care of your little brother; I can't overwork myself."

"Hmph." Francis scoffed, rolling his eyes at his brother.

This little guy was seeking revenge because he always complained about his brother bothering him with company matters!Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Sylvia was speechless. "How old are you guys? Still acting so childish?"
