Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier) novel Chapter 292

Seeing Winnie getting up, Xavier instantly locked her in his arms. “He’s still outside?”

Winnie grunted in response. “He says he’s here to apologize to me, so I told him to wait outside. In fact, I was about to ask you about it. Why is he here? Did you bring him here?”

Xavier grabbed her fingers and nibbled them gently. “No way. I was in a hurry to see you. Why would I bring him along? He was the one who tagged along. I saw him when I was getting off the plane. At that time, I figured it was too late for me to send him away. Then again, we should still put our guard up even if he says he’s here to ask for forgiveness. This rascal’s mind has been full of evil tricks since he was young.”

“All right. I’ll go meet him now.” Winnie nodded.

When Xavier saw her getting out of bed, he, too, sat up immediately. “I’ll go with you.”

She glanced at him and pressed his shoulders. “It’s been a long day for you. Maybe you should get some rest.”

Xavier was stunned. He knew she did not want him to tag along.

He eyed her, frowning slightly. “Why?”

Not wanting to hide the truth from him, she admitted, “It’s about Christopher. Just give me more time. There’s no avoiding this topic when I see Nate.”

So that’s the reason… Xavier gazed at her in silence.

“All right. I’ll do as you say.” Despite saying that, Xavier still stood up.

He picked a shirt from the wardrobe beside the bed and handed it to her. “Put this on.”

“All right. I’ll do as you say,” Winnie repeated his words in the same manner while taking the shirt.

Xavier took her hand, unable to hold in a chuckle. “Do you need my help putting it on?”

Winnie glared at him. “Just say it if you don’t want me to go.”

With that, she quickly changed into the shirt and was about to leave.

Xavier sat by the bed with his eyes on her, looking rather aggrieved. “Aren’t you going to give me a kiss before leaving?”

Amused, Winnie walked over, pinned him to the bed, and gave him a passionate kiss.

Five minutes had passed by the time she went to open the door.

As expected, Nate had not left. His eyes lit up when he saw Winnie opening the door.

The coldness in the air made his voice tremble as he said, “I-I’m really here to apologize to you. See? I didn’t move an inch when you told me to stay out here. Is there anything else I need to do? Just tell me.”

Winnie scrutinized him and realized his lips had turned purple from the cold.

Without saying anything, she shot him a look that indicated for him to enter the house.

The temperatures in the day and at night were drastically different. It was so cold outside that Nate, who was drenched, could feel the warm air from the house even though the door was only half open.

Noting her actions, he followed her into the house.

Winnie went straight to the counter in the open kitchen, and Nate went over as well.
