Chapter 104 In the private room.

Sherilyn sat across from the man, who stared at her without blinking, as if he couldn't bear to look away.

"Sherilyn, this is the third twe've met. That day at Wind Bridge, it was your grandmother's memorial, right? You were there, wearing a mask..." "I didn't chere to talk about that," Sherilyn interrupted, frowning in annoyance. "We've already met. Where's the money? Can you give it tonow?" "Yes." The man nodded. "I brought it. I'll give it to you in a bit... Sherilyn, it's been years since we last saw each other. You suddenly went abroad four years ago without a word. How have you been? You and Mr. Gilbert..." "Enough." Sherilyn cut him off, her voice calm but her brow furrowed in irritation. "Do you really think you should be askingthese questions?" "I..." The man paused, his face a mix of confusion and pain. "Why can't I ask? Sherilyn, I'm concerned about you. You and Gilbert..." "Oh, so funny." Sherilyn couldn't hold back a scoff, her eyes full of scorn. "Now you choose to show concern? Isn't it a little late?" Where was he when she needed him the most? Where was his concern then? The cheapest thing in this world is belated affection! The man fell silent, his face a battleground of conflict and agony. "Yes, I was wrong. But Sherilyn, can you at least tellwhy you suddenly need such a large sum of money? Is Mr. Gilbert treating you poorly?" That day on the street, when he ran into them, Mr. Gilbert was clearly protective of her.

They didn't seem like a couple on bad terms, but the fact remained that Sherilyn was sent abroad for four years! "Sherilyn, please tell me..." Enough was enough! Sherilyn closed her eyes for a moment. "If I don't tell you, does that mean I won't get the money today?" "No..." Suddenly, there was an urgent knock on the door.

The force behind each knock suggested they'd break in if the door wasn't opened soon.

1/2 10:34 Chapter 104 "Open up!" "Open the door, now!" "We're the police! Open up! Can you hear me?" What was going on? Why were the police here? Sherilyn glanced at the man, whose expression instantly turned to panic.

"Damn it!" The man stood up. With the police here, even a minor issue could escalate quickly. Even if they did nothing wrong, they'd be dragged to the station for questioning. And today's meeting with Sherilyn was something his family must not find out.

Sherilyn saw right through his panic.

This guy always says how much he cares about her, but when it really counts, he's only looking out for himself. "Sherilyn..." "What are you afraid of?" Sherilyn raised an eyebrow, her gaze cold. "We haven't done anything wrong. We could just open the door and tell them... what our relationship is!" "Sherilyn, I..." The man hesitated, clearly unwilling.

"Just kidding, lighten up! Why so nervous?" Sherilyn's demeanor m turned icy as she turned away, "Use E the balcony door to leave." "Sherilyn..." "Hurry up!"

She refused to entertain him further, urging him on, "If you don't leaven now, getting dragged to the station will make it impossible to hide from your wife!"

At her words, the man shuddered and then hurriedly made his way to the el balcony. Sherilyn, with her back turned, let out a silent, cold laugh.

She didn't need it anymore...

Taking a deep breath, she walked to the door and swung it open.

"Sherilyn!" To her surprise, she was met with an angry face. It was Gilbert! X CKK-SBCr/GS2P
