"Don't cry, honey. You know what they say, it's all about fate between parents and their children..." "Really?" Sherilyn's tears momentarily paused. Could it be because her intentions were impure? Did the baby know it was brought into this world to save its sister and thus, resisted? Even if it cinto existence, it refused to stay in her womb? "Ah..." Sherilyn closed her eyes in pain, "My baby, my child... Mommy is so sorry... I couldn't keep you..." Bang! The door to the hospital room burst open! Gilbert, tall and imposing, stood at the entrance, unmovable.

"Gilbert..." Sherilyn was stunned, unable to believe her eyes. How could he be here? Wasn't he supposed to be thousands of miles away in London? He had returned? But hadn't he said it would take at least a week? And yet, it had only been a few days? Gilbert, with a stoic face, fixed his gaze on Sherilyn, stepping closer until he stood right in front of her.

His eyes, unblinking and stern, bore into hers without any pleasantries, "You just said something about not being able to keep the child. What did you mean?" Sherilyn was taken aback, rendered speechless.

"Nothing to say?" Gilbert tapped his chin, still expressionless, "Alright, letask you this then. Why did you sell off your properties and shift your assets to Crestwood? What's up with that?" Shock and fear spread across Sherilyn's face, unguarded! He knew? How did he find out? Their eyes locked, and Sherilyn's expressions and gaze said it all.

"Huh." Gilbert scoffed, "On my way back from London, I kept wondering, what could possibly make you want to move your assets to Crestwood?" He narrowed his eyes, mocking, "Sherilyn, don't tell me, you were planning to leaveand run off to Crestwood?" Before Sherilyn could respond, he gripped her shoulders tightly, "Look atand tell the truth! I want the truth!" "The truth?" Confronted with his interrogation, Sherilyn's already low spirit broke entirely, her eyes reddening, "You already know everything, don't you? What more do you want to hear?" "!!" Gilbert was struck as if by lightning, freezing on the spot.

She admitted it? She was indeed planning to leave him! He suddenly remembered how compliant and affectionate she had been these past days...

"Ha, haha..." Gilbert laughed at himself bitterly, "So, these past days, you've been putting on an act, makinglet my guard down, waiting for the right moment to leave me, to leave Sunhaven! You never intended to stay withforever!" "Yes!" Sherilyn held her chin high, meeting his gaze head-on, her answer resolute.

"You!" Gilbert's breath hitched, shock and pain evident, "Fine, very well!" His eyes then fell on her stomach, "My child? Gone? You... did you get rid of it?" "Yes!" Sherilyn didn't hesitate, admitting it outright.

Gilbert staggered, barely keeping his balance.

He released Sherilyn, stepping back.

On his way here, he thought, no matter what Sherilyn's intentions et

were, he couldn't possibly let her leave him! He was willing to da m ve anything to keep her! But now...

She had gotten rid of their child!

"Sherilyn." Gilbert composed himself, his laugh cold and detached, bism voice eerily calm. "Alright, as you Wice wish... We're done! I'm letting you go!"

Finally, he left her with, "To leave me, m you got rid of our child your heartless!" With that, he turned and stormed out of the room.
