Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier) novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401 Come With Me To The Hospital

"Okay." Xavier did not ask for details, but he could make a vague guess nevertheless.

Immediately, he phoned Wilhelm. Very soon, the two men started discussing their Alendor trip.

When they were about to be done with their discussion, another call came in on Xavier's phone.

The moment Wilhelm heard Xavier's phone ringing, he concluded the phone call very quickly without taking up too much of Xavier's time.

However, Xavier did not pick up his phone after putting down Winnie's phone.

Winnie found it strange. "What's wrong? Why aren't you answering your phone?”

Xavier frowned before replying, "It's my dad. I'm supposed to have a transnational conference with him tomorrow, but I've told Louis to cancel it. He must have received the news. I'll go out and answer the call. You go ahead and take a rest first."

As Xavier was talking, he picked up his phone.

Winnie grabbed his arm when he was about to leave.

"Are you worried that your dad will talk badly about me during your conversation?"

Xavier grunted softly in acknowledgment. "He won't have anything nice to say. Lie down and rest first. I'll be back in a short while."

"All right." Winnie was well aware that Xavier would get into an argument with his dad because of her. That was why she did not force him to stay with her. "I don't wish to damage the relationship between you and your dad. Therefore, I think it's better that you don't take to heart everything he says."

"I know. Don't worry about it. I want you to lie down now! That's an order!"

"Fine. I'll do as you say." Winnie chuckled when she heard the word "order." She lifted the blanket and lay down on the bed.

Xavier only left after he adjusted her pillow and left a passionate kiss on her lips.

Not long after he walked away, Winnie could hear his deep, angry voice.

"Yes... I have to go because the company will still operate as usual without me being there. However, the same cannot be said for this matter! I have to do this myself!"

After a pause, he continued, "Dad, enough. You have never treated Mom seriously, so please don't expect me to be like you and treat my wife the same way. I'm not you."

There was another pause. "You don't feel Mom's pain, but I can. I never want to become another you! Never!"

As Xavier walked further away, Winnie could no longer hear his end of the conversation anymore.

However, that was the first time Winnie heard Xavier mention his mother.

Judging from what I overheard, his father did not treat him and his mom too well. The atmosphere at home must not have been good during his younger years. That explains the cool relationship between father and son.

After Xavier left for his trip, Josiah came over to mooch a few meals from Winnie.

That day, Josiah had even brought a chef with him.

He said to Winnie, "Before Xavier left, he told me to look after your health and everything else since I'm your private doctor. That includes your daily meals.”
