Silly Bride Chapter 115
Chapter 115
Downstairs, Winnie called out to Jacinta, and to Xavier’s chagrin, she went into the building with
Christopher.Xavier’s face darkened instantly.He left his house and went into the elevator with his
wheelchair.Ever since he discovered that Winnie had faked her condition, Xavier had always felt
conflicted. He wanted to know all her secrets—every single one of them—yet he knew that Winnie had
an ego, and was opinionated, so he had been waiting for her to open up to him on her own, but what
he learned that day was thest straw.Yes, I lied to her, but that lie is nothingpared to hers! It’s not
like I have a choice, and that’s not the case for her! How could she hide the fact that she’s staying
downstairs from me? Does she even care about me? Does she take our rtionship for a game?Over
in another elevator, Christopher seemed ufortable about going to Winnie’s ce. “I think I should
go back. This is my first time seeing your granny, but I didn’t bring a gift with me.”“It’s fine,” Winnie
assured. “Granny doesn’t care about all this. She’s very hospitable. She would shout at me until
everyone in this building heard her if she found out I didn’t bring you with me. I hope you don’t mind her
character.”“I don’t mind, of course. It’s nice having a lively and energetic person at home.”“I guess. It
does get lonely if the house is too quiet. Anyway, we’re here.”Ding! The elevator stopped as soon as
Winnie spoke.Winnie wanted to lead the way after the door opened, but she suddenly stopped.Behind
her, Christopher, who was way taller than her, nced over Winnie’s shoulder and saw Xavier outside
the elevator.From the looks of it, he must have sat in his wheelchair waiting for them for some time.
The two froze in shock until the elevator door closed again when no one went out of the elevator after a
long while.Christopher raised his hand to stop the door despite being caught in a dilemma. He was
undecided if he should step out or go back down.As for Winnie, she was not expecting Xavier to be
back at Aqua Moana. Thus, it never once crossed her mind that Xavier would appear on the thirty-first
floor.I guess there’s no use hiding. Granny shouted so loud from our house earlier, so he must’ve
heard.Spotting Xavier’s hostile re at Christopher, Winnie turned to Christopher and said, “I’m sorry.
This is not a good day to have guests over at the house. We’ll take a rain check.”Christopher nodded.
“Sure. Call me if you need anything.”“I will,” Winnie replied with an apologetic smile. She felt sorry thatThis content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
things had taken an unexpected turn.Their interaction exasperated Xavier and watching them felt as if
a thousand knives had pierced his heart.To him, it did not matter if Winneshed out at him or
expressed her surprise as long as he was the first person she talked to the moment she saw him, yet
that was not what Winnie did.She reacted calmly and coldly toward Xavier and apologized to and
smiled at another man. She even invited Christopher to her house in front of Xavier.Humiliated, Xavier
felt a gush of fury rose in his heart. I gave her my heart and soul, yet she threw it at her feet and
trampled all over it.“Stand right there. No one’s going anywhere,” Xavier ordered in a forbidding tone.
There was no sign of his endearing self when he was around Winnie in his voice. Christopher frowned
when he sensed the antagonism in Xavier’s voice.“You must’ve misunderstood our rtionship, Mr.
Fairchild. I came to discuss important matters with Winnie today, and I came up because her granny
invited me in.”“Shut up! Is that your guilt speaking? I didn’t even ask a question, or are you afraid I don’t
know all the details of you guys’ meetup?”“Xavier Fairchild! Stop being snarky! You’re the one who
should shut up!” Winnie shouted. Xavier’s tone vexed her beyond measure, especially when she had
been tolerating his lies that whole day.“Christopher’s Granny’s guest, so who do you think you are to
talk to him like this? You and I not even rted, to begin with,” she continued.“What did you say? Are
we not rted? Do you want me to show you our marriage certificate to jog your memory about our
rtionship? You know how I’ve treated you all this while!” Xavier scoffed.“Stop using our marriage
certificate as an excuse. It’s just a paper. We should just get our marriage license revoked tomorrow if
you keep bringing it up! Let’s just get a divorce!”“So, you want a divorce now, huh? Don’t tell me you’re
already nning on marrying this man. You’re bringing him home when you’ve only known him for
days! Why didn’t you tell me you’ve been staying here? Grandpa unterally decided on the marriage
without our consent, so I totally understand if you want to call it off, but I clearly told you how I feel
about you. How could you just disregard everything I did for you?” Xavier bellowed in
dissatisfaction.“Everything you did for me?” Winnie mocked. “Don’t get me started. Why did you lie to
me when you’re not even in Aqua Moana? I gave you many chances to tell me the truth, but you didn’t.
Why? Because you were with Yulissa yesterday night!” Winnie snapped before a pause. “Why are you
quiet? Is it because I just called you out? I didn’t tell you I bought a house here, but you didn’t ask
either. I would’ve told you if you asked, but what about you? You lied to me repeatedly, even when I
asked you. Also, you should be frank and ask me to stay out of the drug case if that’s what you want.
Why do you have to conspire with Louis to trick me? I was told there was still no progress with the
logisticspany investigation, but the truth is that the search result was already sent out! Is that even
necessary? Before I forget, how did Yulissa find out about my secret? Only a few people know I’m
faking my illness, and of all these people, you’re the only one in contact with her.”“I get it now. You are
second-guessing me.” A smirk curved on Xavier’s lips. “It seems like Captain Bet told you
everything. He’s the one who drove a wedge between us.”“Are you crazy? How narrow-minded can
you get? Christopher was still siding with you earlier!”“Yes. I’m crazy!” Xavier cried out and shot up
from his wheelchair.With his eyes pumped red, he seized Winnie on her shoulder and seethed, “I must
be crazy to feel insecure about you leaving me for someone else! I must be crazy to think about you
day and night! I must be crazy to lie to you! I was so scared you might misunderstand me. I don’t want
you to spend more time with this man because of the case. Things are not as simple as you think they
are. Can’t you see that he likes you? This man wants you! I love you and did everything for you, but
what about you? You don’t even feel the same way for me!”
