Chapter 119
He took one look at Winnie and felt that he had toe clean.In the past, he was not aware of the
rtionship between Winnie and Xavier, so he kept his feelings to himself.However, she was no longer
with Xavier.There was no need for him to hide his feelings anymore.Christopher sat upright and said in
a serious manner, “To be honest, I have known Winnie since five years ago.”“Five years ago?”
eximed Jacinta when she heard his answer.Even Winnie, who was feeling depressed, could not help
but frown.She eyed Christopher in confusion.A gentleness took over the iciness in Christopher’s eyes
as he recalled the past.In an instant, Winnie could not ept that sort of expressioning from
someone who was not close to her.She unconsciously frowned and even put down her cutlery.“You
knew me? Or perhaps, you have seen me before? I don’t recall us meeting five years ago.”“We spoke
before.” Christopher pursed his lips and blushed. “Five years ago, we met in a bank. Back then, there
was an armed robbery there. One of the robbers had a bomb on him. I was in charge of the sniper
team. You were very brave and quick-thinking. Before we got into our positions, I saw from the
surveince camera how you saved the others. Later on, a pregnant woman was taken hostage by the
robbers. You volunteered to swap ces with thedy. I had a new colleague back then, and he was
quite young. It was his first mission. I still remember what you told him back then.”Before Christopher
could speak out, Winnie said what she said five years ago, “Keep up the hard work, officer! You drive
the criminals back every time you take a step forward!”She could not hold back herughter. “Now, I
remember. You were the SWAT officer from five years ago. You are an excellent sniper.”Winnie
reached out to cover the lower half of Christopher’s face. “No wonder! No wonder I feel that I have
seen you somewhere. Back then, you had a mask on. All I saw was your eyes.”“That’s right. It’s me,”
said Christopher with a smile. “You still remember me.”“Yes, my memory is quite good. By the way,
when did you realize it was me?” asked Winnie.Christopher said without any hesitation because he
could remember very clearly, “When I first saw the missing person case of Mrs. Fairchild of the
Fairchild family. But I wasn’t sure back then because the file shows that the missing person is a
mentally challenged person. Until you pretended to be Paulina and handed me a sample of Yulissa’sProperty belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
blood sample and told me—Being a police officer is a dangerous job, but as a police officer, you stand
between light and darkness. Every time you take a step forward, darkness will have to take a step
back.”Winnie sighed and smiled, “Haha! It’s truly spoken by the same person. There isn’t much
difference from what I said five years ago.”Winnie and Christopher were enjoying their conversation.
Jacinta, on the other hand, trembled in fear when she heard what they said.“Winnie, you were caught
in a bank robbery five years ago? Why didn’t I know about all these? Chris, I didn’t know you have such
a dangerous job.”With a sigh, Jacinta continued, “Then again, both of you are fated to meet each other.
You can consider seeing each other more often in the future. I can tell Chris is a nice man. He is good-
looking and has a good character. I have also spoken with Chris and found out that his family isn’t as
complicated as the Fairchild family.”Winnie was rendered speechless.After dinner, Winnie sent
Christopher downstairs. After hesitating for a long while, Christopher decided to speak up.“Can you
consider Mdm. Sumner’s suggestion? To be honest with you, I haven’t been dating anyone for the past
five years.”It took Winnie a second before she realized what he was talking about.She frowned slightly.
The moment she knew he was that SWAT officer five years ago, she did feel closer to him. However, it
did not mean she wanted to date him right now.“Christopher, honestly, I have been very busy for the
past few years and never had the time to indulge in a romantic rtionship. After returning home, I got
into the marriage with Xavier because of a twist of events. During our time together, I find him to be a
nice person. Initially, I thought if we liked each other and could get along, that would be enough. But
love isn’t as simple as I thought it to be. Both parties have to be on the same page. Because of my
rtionship with Xavier, I’m utterly perplexed about rtionships. Furthermore, I have been busy with
lots of stuff since I came to Avenport. So, I’m sorry. I don’t n to date anyone at this moment.”“Okay, I
understand.” Christopher had expected her to reject him anyway. “Then, let’s be friends for now.”He
knew very well that there was no way she would ept him so soon after parting ways with Xavier.
However, he could not help himself but express his feelings for her.There were some other things that
he was hiding from her. She might not believe him if he revealed the truth. In all honesty, he had been
in love with her for the past five years.He did not mind waiting for her for another year or two.After all,
she was in his life at the present moment.By the time Winnie and Jacinta got back to the Gand
residence, it was already past eight o’clock.Hamish was not back yet.Since the patriarch of the
household was not around, the housekeepers started to misbehave.The moment Winnie and Jacinta
got back, the housekeepers began to gossip about them.“This old one is so shameless. It’s bad
enough that she stays and eats for free. She evencks manners. She just goes in and out anytime
she likes.”“That’s right. She doesn’t even take a good look at herself. Who does she think she is? Even
Mrs. Gand’s family doesn’t behave like this when they are here.”“Nancy, what do you expect from a
shameless olddy and a dumbass? They are nothing!”“Olddy! I beg of you. Mrs. Gand ising
back from the hospital tonight. Why don’t you take your dumbass granddaughter out of here so that you
don’t create trouble for Mrs. Gand?”The three housekeepers’ harsh insults made Jacinta very
furious.She was eyeing the duster that was nearby and tempted to pick it up.However, Winnie was
trying to stop her in secret.Winnie shielded Jacinta behind her before walking toward the housekeepers
with a silly expression.All of a sudden, her expression changed, and so did her aura. She no longer
appeared silly. Instead, there was something sinister about her.The few housekeepers had no idea
what Winnie was up to until she gave each one of them a tight p on their faces.p! p! The
housekeepers only came to their senses after that.Just when they were about to react, Winnie popped
her eyes wide open and yelled, “Remember! My name is Lorelei. Tell that shameless couple I’m back
for revenge!”What!The three housekeepers freaked out. One of them had been with Yara for many
years and even helped Yara to harm Lorelei.She screamed in fright, “She’s possessed! She’s being
possessed!”
