Silly Bride Chapter 39


    Chapter 39


    Yulissa felt aggrieved because he was the one who had been calling Winnie a dumbass. “But Xavier


    —”“No buts!” Xavier sounded even more stern.Yulissa suddenly realized something when she saw how


    protective Xavier was toward Winnie.She teared up and looked at Xavier in disbelief. “Xavier, are you


    bewitched by her looks? But she’s really just a—”“Shut up!” Xavier cut her off with a frown. “She has


    never bewitched me. Don’t throw your unfounded usation at her.”Instead, he had willingly let himself


    fall for her.Even so, Yulissa was still baffled.Xavier is such a prideful person. How is he not mad after


    having wine poured all over him? He doesn’t even care about my swollen face and is telling me not to


    call that woman a dumbass. Five years ago, he would never have let anyone bully his girlfriend. In fact,


    there was no way he would have let someone humiliate him like that. Has this man gone crazy? Why


    would he fall for a dumbass?“What about those things that you said to me before this, Xavier? Do


    those words mean anything?”“I meant what I said,” Xavier said expressionlessly. “Yulissa, as I said, as


    long as you behave, we could perhaps go back to how things once were.”“Really?”Xavier chuckled. “I


    don’t have a reason to lie to you.”“Okay. I’ll behave. No matter what happens, I’m not going to leave


    you this time.”Yulissa wanted to hug Xavier as she spoke.But Xavier shoved her aside. “Get the


    housekeeper to get an ice pack for your face.”With that, he left.Yulissa clenched her fists, stood there,


    and watched him leave.I’m still in love with you, Xavier. If you have a change of heart soon, I believe


    things will go back to how they used to be. However, if you hurt me and make me sad, I’m going to help


    Zyon in bringing you down. By then, don’t me me for being heartless!Meanwhile, Winnie was


    entirely crestfallen when she went into the yroom.Right after she switched on herputer, she


    received a call from Jacinta.“Hey, Winnie.” Judging by how soft Jacinta’s voice was, Winnie knew she


    had called her secretively. “Some people came today and said they’re from the Fairchild family. They


    said they’re bringing me to Avenport. Is there such a thing?”“They got there so soon?” Winnie frowned.


    “Xavier only told me about itst night, and I thought he didn’t mean it. I didn’t expect them to arrive


    there so quickly.”“Oh, I see. So it’s true. I thought they were a bunch of conmen at first. Have you


    agreed to it, though? Do you want me to follow them? Will I cause you trouble if I do so?”“You won’t. InN?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    fact, it’s good that you’reing. I can’t really go out on my own. With you here, it’s easier for me to


    get things done. Besides, Old Mr. Fairchild is celebrating his birthday soon. All the younger members of


    the Fairchild family will be here. Who knows? We might bump into my cousin. You can have a good


    look at him yourself. Even if we don’t see him, you can treat it as a trip for you to rx.”“Really? That’s


    great! I’ll pack up and follow them, then. Winnie, I’m so looking forward to it.” “Yes. I hope we can


    sessfully locate my cousin.” In truth, Winnie was eager to find her cousin as well.No matter how


    things turn out this time, I’m surely leaving the Fairchild family. I’m just waiting for the right time. Prior to


    this, I was still nning to be around Xavier for a while. But things have changed. I’m not going to


    waste time trying to win over a man who has someone else in his heart. He’s a filthy man!Ever since


    Winnie poured wine over Xavier’s head in Lagune Mansion, Xavier had never returned.Besides,


    Yulissa had brought away his clothes that day itself.Winnie didn’t know where they moved to, and she


    wasn’t interested in finding out.She had thought about exposing Yulissa, but she ultimately changed


    her mind.I don’t have to trouble myself. I should just let Xavier make a fool out of himself. Furthermore,


    I’ve been busy. Not only do I have tomunicate with Nathaniel, but I also have to keep acting


    dumb.Since Rufus’ seventy-eighth birthday wasing up, Winnie had to arrive earlier at the Fairchild


    residence to get ready so that she could see the younger members of the Fairchild family and look for


    the birthmark Jacinta was looking for.That day, she urgently needed to purchase a batch of military-


    grade listening devices. However, those kinds of things couldn’t be found in the legal market in


    Chanaea, and she had to look for the goods on the ck market.While using Jacinta as a distraction,


    Winnie left Lagune Mansion.After settling Jacinta down, Winnie dressed up in a unisex outfit and


    headed toward the ck market.The location of the ck market was always changing, and it was held


    in the basement of a bar that day. Things such as firearms, drugs, and confidential information were


    traded there.Upon entering the basement of the bar, Winnie went to look for a redheaded Eastern


    Epean man.That man specialized in reselling all kinds of advanced military equipment.ording to the


    rules, they would not make deals with strangers no matter how much money was offered.Winnie,


    however, went there prepared. After a failed negotiation, she immediately whipped out a ck badge.It


    wasn’t an ordinary ck badge. It was made of ck gold, with a rose and a scepter engraved on the


    front and back.Anyone who knew of its existence would know what that badge meant.The redheaded


    man knew of the badge, so he quickly gave Winnie what she wanted.After the transaction was


    completed, Winnie was about to leave the ce when the face of a woman caught her attention.That


    woman was taking drugs. She had a face mask on, but she took it off when she ingested some


    pills.Winnie caught a glimpse of her face when she took off her mask. That woman looks like


    Yulissa.However, it was rather dark, so Winnie wasn’t sure.She wanted to take a closer look at that


    woman, but she was soon surrounded by men.Not wanting to be nosy, Winnie left.The moment she left


    the bar, the redheaded man told a group of men about the badge she had. “Ha! I didn’t know someone


    from that family is in Chanaea. Since they came on their own, I’m going to take full advantage of the


    opportunity. The three of you should go and grab that person. Keep that person alive. I’m going to have


    some fun.”Winnie started her car, having no idea that danger was creeping up on her.
