Chapter 884
Back then, he wasn't into you, but now, it's a whole different story."
"Trust me, Sherilyn, from one guy to another, I can tell. When a man's feelings change, it's like night and day. You've got to feel it too."
Sherilyn froze, her smile lingering awkwardly on her face.
"That's it, then."
Edgar didn't add anything more but spread his arms wide. "I'm heading out. Let's hug it out, because who knows when we'll get another chance."
At his words, Sherilyn, who had just managed to stop her tears, found them flowing once more.
"God, you're such a pain."
"Ha-ha..."
Edgar laughed heartily, took a step forward, and bent down to wrap her tightly in his arms.
In that moment of embrace, his laughter ceased.
Leaning close to her ear, he whispered, "Take good care of yourself... Don't make me regret my decision today."
"Mm..."
With a choked voice, Sherilyn raised her hands to hug him back, reciprocating his embrace.
"I never realized how annoying you were until now. Seriously, you're such a pain."
...
At the hospital room door, Gilbert arrived, ready to enter.
The door swung open from the inside, and Edgar stepped out.
Gilbert paused, remembering, right, Yates was back in town, so of course, Edgar would be too.
"Gilbert." Edgar greeted him with a smile and moved on.
Gilbert was puzzled for a moment. Wasn't Sherilyn with him?
Entering the room, he found Sherilyn on the couch, wiping her eyes with a tissue.
His heart skipped a beat seeing her red eyes. Had she been crying? Because of Edgar?
Sherilyn tossed the tissue into the trash and looked up, "Oh, you're here early today." "Yeah, came to check on Jenna's test results."
Jenna was due for discharge in a couple of days, and they were finalizing her discharge tests. Gilbert had just met with Dr. Neil, and thankfully, the results showed no issues.
But now, he was more concerned about her.
"Why the tears?"
Gilbert stared at her tear-streaked face, frowning. "I just saw Edgar. Did you guys have a fight?" "...No." Sherilyn paused, then shook her head with a smile. "It's not what you're thinking." As she spoke, she grabbed her phone and bag, "Since you're here, I'll head out."
Gilbert's enthusiasm cooled instantly, managing a stiff smile, "Edgar's waiting for you downstairs?"
"Take

Jenna for me. See you Sherilyn's response was mittal as she waved and quickly left the room. Conte belongs to FindNovel
"See you."
Gilbert scoffed at himself. He was overthinking it...
Sherilyn and Edgar were probably just fine. Early days of love, they be in their honeymoon phase.
would they fight?
Two days later, Jenna was discharged.
Early in the morning, Sherilyn and Sophia arrived at the hospital to pack up, while Gilbert handled the discharge paperwork.
Each doing their part, everything was ready by ten.
Gilbert returned to the room, handed Sherilyn a folder with the discharge summary and copies of all medical records.
"I'll sort these out," Sherilyn said, taking the folder. "You can bring Jenna out. We're good to go."
"Alright."
Gilbert nodded, then suddenly realizing something was missing, blurted out.
"What about Edgar? He didn't come?"
"..." Sherilyn paused, then shook her head, "He's been really busy. I didn't ask him to come."
Without elaborating, she turned to put away the folder.
Gilbert's brow furrowed, Edgar busy? She didn't ask him to come?
It sounded reasonable, yet something felt off.
