The photo wasn’t very clear. In fact, it was rather blurry.Strangely, Nate was exceedingly blurry in the
photo. Conversely, the people behind him, who acted as his backdrop, were distinctly captured.Those
few people were none other than Winnie—who was being arrested—and the police officers—who were
performing their duty—at the Northern District airport back then.At the sight of the photo, Winnie
couldn’t help sneering.How intriguing!“Mrs. Fairchild?” Louis only knew that Winnie was scrolling
through her phone, but he had no idea what she was looking at. At her sudden sneer, he inexorably
stopped mid-utterance.Lifting her head, Winnie cast him a nce. “It’s nothing. Carry on. I’m
listening.”“Sure!” Louis had actually discovered that she had the ability to multitask ages ago, so he
was no longer surprised about it.As Winnie listened to him, she erged the photo.Judging from the
panorama and close-up of the photo, the person who took it probably failed to focus properly instead of
having taken it on purpose.However, the onlyment beneath it was extremely interesting.It was
from a user known as “YulieBeau” whomented, “the devil is in the details.”So, what’s the catch in
this blurry photo of Nate’s? And why is this user so coincidentally known as YulieBeau? YulieBeau…
Yulissa…That had Winnie inevitably associating two names together.After tapping into YulieBeau’s
ount, she promptly discovered that the trajectory of its activity log synchronized with Yulissa’s
appearance.Before Yulissa returned to Chanaea, the ount had remained dormant.Subsequent to
her emergence, however, the ount became active.Most importantly, the user liked andmented
on the photo of her arrest by the police.All that automatically aroused her suspicions. She suspected
that YulieBeau was Nate’s private Twitter ount.In the modern era, many celebrities in Chanaea had
two ounts—an official ount for publicity purposes as well as a personal ount to surf and
spread gossip.Anyway, this man is really intriguing. He seems to be paying a lot of attention to me. No
sooner had he made a call to report me for trafficking drugs out of the country than he made an
appearance at the Northern District airport to appear in the same photo with me.Winnie fiddled with her
phone. Heh! Since he’s paying so much attention to me, I’ll allow him to do so much more
effortlessly!Putting away her phone, she looked at Louis right across from her. “Inform the media and
change this press conference to a live broadcast.”At once, Louis frowned. “A live broadcast? But Mrs.
Fairchild,panies generally take the route of pre-recording when hosting such a press conference.
On top of that, both the script and footage then have to be reviewed and authorized by the PR
department before they can be uploaded to the inte.”“Why, did Fairchild Corporation once suffer a
catastrophe during a press conference?” Winnie chuckled softly.“No. It’s just a precaution.”In response,
Winnie nodded “I see. It was my mistake earlier for not having made things clear. Conduct Fairchild
Corporation’s part as per the usual practice, then make it a live broadcast for my subsequent segment.
This won’t put you in a difficult position, yes?”“Um… I think I’d better ask Mr. Xavier for permission
first,” Louis replied hesitantly.A frown marred Winnie’s countenance, and she subconsciously drummed
her fingers on the couch. But in no time, the furrow of her brows eased.“Okay. You can do so when he
comes out.” She then nced at the time before adding, “They’ve gone in for some time, so they
should being out anytime now.” Having said that, she stood up and headed toward the lounge.Just
when she was about to lift her hand and knock on the door, Josiah happened to open the door and
walk out.“You gave me a fright!” Josiah eximed.Winnie directed her gaze beyond his shoulder to the
lounge within. “Right back at you. Where’s Xavier? Why don’t I see him?”Used to wearing a white coat,
Josiah made to stick his hands in his coat pockets out of habit.As soon as he did so, he realized that he
only had a shirt on right then. Left with no other choice, he could only ce his hands into his pants
pockets.He didn’t behave thus in the past, but he was inexorably jittery at the sight of Winnie in recent
days.He took a deep breath to calm himself down before exining, “I gave him some cholinesterase
inhibitor. He’s doing better and is washing his face with cold water inside.”Frowning, Winnie
questioned, “Does that cholinesterase inhibitor you mentioned have any side effects?”Josiah nudged
his sses. “It varies from individual to individual. Some will indeed develop adverse effects after
taking it, such as insomnia, dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps, and the like. Yet,
some remain unaffected. But you don’t need to worry, for I’ll keep watch over him around the clock
these few days.”“Okay. I’ll go and look in on him, then. The press conference is about to begin.”In the
bathroom, Xavier was washing his face in front of the mirror.He wasn’t all that gentle with himself. After
sshing water onto his face, arge portion of his hair scattered across his forehead got wet and
stuck to his skin in clumps.That aside, a few droplets of water hung from his thick, ebony brows. A
gratified smile bloomed on Winnie’s face at the sight of Xavier in the mirror.Only a wild and handsome
man like him is a real man. The so-called coolly confident photos of Nate on Twitter earlier were no
different from a boy ying dress-up!As she dwelled upon that, all her attention was on the man in the
mirror.It never crossed her mind to take a look at herself. Therefore, she didn’t realize that her eyes
were brimming with desire at that moment.Contrarily, Xavier clocked it all.His blood that had been
surging wildly only then calmed down slowly after he had taken the medicine Josiah gave him. His
breathing gradually steadied out as well.At that very instant, however, his breathing abruptly turned
heavy again as he stared at the candid and alluring look in her eyes in the mirror.I want her, even if it
means tearing her apart.He again took some water, but this time, he didn’t ssh it onto his face
anymore.He merely spread his palms and allowed the water to trickle down.Subsequently, he shook off
the water droplets from his hands and dried his hands with a dry towel.He was unbelievably calm and
methodical as he performed that series of actions.Only he himself knew that the beast within him was
about to break free of its cage.He turned around without uttering a single word. Without warning, he
pinned the woman behind him against the wall.Ultimately, he couldn’t bear to see Winnie suffering the
slightest hurt and used his massive palm to shield the back of her head.He plundered her mouth wildly,
but still, it wasn’t enough.Yet, he didn’t dare hold her too tightly for fear that he would identally crush
her.An ardent voice sounded beside Winnie’s ear. “I missed you, Dumbo. You missed me too, didn’t
you? You can’t escape! I saw it all in the mirror earlier. Your eyes told me that you want me as
well!”Winnie had never nned on escaping. Instead, she wrapped her arms around the man. “I’m not
going to deny that. But not now because it’s time we attend the press conference.”
