Silly Bride Chapter 235


    Chapter 235


    Winnie was dumbfounded. Why is she so stubborn? She’d rather die than leave this ce.Winnie


    massaged her forehead. She could not bring herself to get mad at a grandmother like that.After


    studying Jacinta for some time, she nodded in resignation. “All right, then. Looks like I can’t change


    your mind today. Rest early. I’m going to get some sleep too. I’m going to pay Rach a visit tomorrow


    morning.”Jacinta finally smiled when she heard Winnie’s words. “Now that’s more like it. I wouldn’t be


    able to sleep tonight if you insisted I go back tomorrow.”Winnie shed Jacinta a smile as well. “Lie


    down now. I’ll turn off the lights.”Jacinta hummed in response andy back down.Winnie watched


    Jacinta pull the nkets over her before reaching out to press the light switch beside the bed.After that,


    she pulled out her phone and swiftly sent a message. Upon receiving a satisfactory reply, she closed


    her eyes.The next morning, Winnie was not in the room by the time Jacinta woke up. She even went


    looking in the washroom, but Winnie was nowhere to be found.Just as Jacinta was panicking, Winnie


    suddenly opened the door and entered the room.Jacinta heaved a sigh of relief and hurried toward


    Winnie. “Winnie, my darling, where did you go so early in the morning? I thought something happened


    to you. What am I going to do if you get into trouble here? I don’t even know where I should go to find


    you.”Winnie handed Jacinta the stic bag in her hand with a chuckle. “Well, I’m right in front of you,


    aren’t I? I just went out to get some breakfast. No matter what, we still need to have breakfast, no?”Still


    frowning, Jacinta scolded, “You gave me a scare. You should’ve asked me to go with you. Do you have


    any idea how worried I was?”Winnie quickly admitted her mistake. “There, there. Quit worrying already.


    It’s my bad. I promise I won’t make such a mistake again. I’ll give you a heads-up before going


    anywhere in the future. How about that? I only went out to buy some things anyway. I know you’re


    worried about me. And if that’s the case, have you ever thought about it from another point of view?


    Surely you can understand my worry about you too. So—”Knowing what Winnie was trying to get at,


    Jacinta interrupted, “All right, that’s enough. Didn’t we already agree on itst night? Why are you going


    back on your words after a night’s rest? Anyway, I’ve already decided. I won’t change my mind no


    matter what you say. I’m going to wash up now. Just leave the breakfast there. I’ll be out in a


    while.”Winnie said nothing as she watched her stubborn grandmother leave. She then walked over to


    the table and put down the breakfast.It was a simple breakfast with two buns and a cup of soy milk for


    each person.Winnie purposely waited for Jacinta toe out of the bathroom to enjoy their breakfast


    together.At the table, Jacinta spoke before Winnie even had the chance to open her mouth. “Don’t


    speak while eating.”Winnie sighed. “Fine. I won’t bring up that topic, then. What do you think? Is the


    bun okay?”“It’s so-so.” Seeing that Winnie was not going to bring up the matter of sending her back,


    Jacinta added, “The filling is too little, and the crust is too dry and hard. It’s as if it’s been left exposed


    to the air for one night. I can tell it hasn’t been proofed well just by the looks of it. It’s so hard to


    swallow.”“Then maybe you should have it with the soy milk. I’ve tried it already. It’s not bad,” said


    Winnie.“Okay. Let me try,” Jacinta responded while bringing the cup of soy milk to her lips.Eyeing the


    cup of soy milk in Jacinta’s hand, Winnie asked with a smile, “How is it? It’s good, right?”Jacinta


    nodded. “Yes, it is. It’s from a different stall, isn’t it? Their buns shouldn’t taste so bad if they can make


    such yummy soy milk.”Perhaps the bun was so dry that Jacinta took a few more gulps of the soy milk,


    finishing almost half of it.Seeing that, Winnie decided to skip eating the bun.When Jacinta saw Winnie


    putting down her food, she could not help but ask, “Why aren’t you eating? Is there something


    wrong?”Winnie only nodded in silence.“What’s wrong?” Jacinta asked Winnie. Suddenly, she felt a little


    dizzy.Even her vision was getting blurry.However, she did not realize what was going on. She raised


    her hand and knocked her own head. “What’s wrong with me? Why am I getting a headache all of a


    sudden?”Winnie finally hummed a response. She got up, rushed over to Jacinta’s side, and held the


    unconscious woman.Indeed, Jacinta had passed out.Since she would not cooperate with Winnie to go


    back, Winnie had no choice but to spike her soy milk.Winnie got the drugs locally, so she only used a


    little because she was worried that the effects could be too strong, which would bring harm to Jacinta’s


    body.In other words, Winnie had very little time to carry out her n. She had to send Jacinta off right


    away.After helping Jacinta up, Winnie kicked the wall twice as hard as she could.Xavier soon came


    over from the next room after hearing the signal. As soon as he opened the door, another man


    immediately walked in with a wheelchair.He was someone Winnie had seen before—Xavier’s


    bodyguard in Avenport. He was someone who could be trusted.Handing Jacinta over to him, Winnie


    said sternly, “I’m handing my granny to you because I can’t leave at the moment. You must take her


    back safely and keep us posted. Inform us first thing once you’vended.”The bodyguard promised,


    “Don’t worry, Mr. Fairchild, Ms. Gand. I’ll definitely bring her back safely.”After he took Jacinta away,


    Winnie felt so much more relieved.Winnie and Xavier went to the hospital first to check on Rachel


    before getting in touch with Josiah.Things were not going well at Josiah’s side.He had been following


    Yulissa ording to the information Xavier provided, but she was still nowhere to be found.Winnie


    grew anxious, but Xavier seemed calmer than her despite the fact that he was the victim.He even


    comforted Winnie, “It’s okay. My rpses aren’t that frequent for now anyway. We still have a lot of


    time.”Although she felt much calmer, she still red daggers at him. “Ugh, can you please have a


    sense of urgency? I feel like a servant who’s more concerned about the king than the king himself.”


    With that, she turned on her heels to walk out of the room.Xavier quickly hugged her from the back.


    “Why are you angry? I just don’t want to see you in a bad mood. Besides, you said something wrong


    earlier.”Winnie snapped, “What?”Xavier tightened his arms around Winnie’s shoulders. “How could you


    call yourself a servant? That’s uneptable. In my heart, you are my king—I mean, queen.”Winnie


    was amused. “How is it I’ve never realized you’re such a sweet talker? Where did that quiet man


    go?”Xavier let out a chuckle. “I’ve got to admit, I never knew how to say romantic things like these in


    the past. I haven’t got a choice, though. This skill was unlocked the moment I met you.”“Enough. Let


    me go. I’m going back to my room.”Xavier frowned. He sounded displeased as he said, “Huh? Granny


    has already left, yet you still want to sleep in a different room? We’re a legally married couple.”“I know.


    That’s why I’m going back to pack my things and bring them all here.”“Sit here, then. I’ll bring them over


    for you.”“It’s okay. I’ll be right over. Just take care of your matters and don’t worry about me.”“All right.”


    Xavier nodded. Indeed, he still had some work to deal with.Quickly, Winnie returned to the room next


    door.Since Xavier was not around, she turned on another system on her phone and dialed a number.


    “Wilhelm, do you have any updates on that person? I asked around two days ago, and there aren’t any


    new forms here.”“I was just about to call you, Winnie. I’ve gotten some information, but it’s not


    much. You still have to carry out some investigations there.”“Okay. Tell me whatever that is useful that


    you’ve gotten so far. I’ll be the judge of it myself.”“That person’s code name is Big ck Bear. We haveContent is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    no idea about their gender or what they look like, but there’s one thing we’re sure of. Big ck Bear


    could be an Aplothian, but we can’t rule out that he might have a mixed heritage.”Winnie knitted her


    brows. “That’s all? That’s difficult. It’ll take luck and time to find him.”“I agree, but he’s already alerted


    when the people from Erihal were hunting him. He fled to Jipsdale. You’re more suited to carry out this


    mission since you’re an Alplothian. No matter what the oue of the mission is, I’ll be proud of you all


    the same.”When Winnie heard that, she could not help butugh. The heavy atmosphere suddenly


    became lighter.“Are you sure you’ll be proud of me if I don’tplete the mission? I’m afraid


    Granddad’s going to beat you up.”“That’s impossible, Winnie. Everyone knows he loves you the most.


    As long as I praise you in front of him, he’ll never punish me no matter what happens. Oh, I have


    something else to give you. If Big ck Bear refuses to reveal himself, perhaps you can carry out n


    B. However, your safety is of top priority. The mission needs to be aplished, but you must be safe


    too.”“I know, Wilhelm. I’ve got someone I love now. I won’t risk my life as I used to even if it’s for him. I’ll


    bring him to meet you guys once everything’s settled. Now, tell me about n B.”“All right. n B goes


    like this…” After exining the details of n B, Wilhelm reminded her, “Remember, you must take


    good care of this document I’m sending you. Although we’ve processed this carefully and made precise


    calctions, it still has its risks. It must never fall into another person’s hands.”“Got it.” With that,


    Winnie hung up and hurriedly downloaded the document Wilhelm had sent.She only needed to read it


    once to remember all the information.Once that was done, she quickly deleted the original document


    on her phone and changed the system of the phone to the original version.Just as she was changing it,


    Xavier suddenly came in. “Didn’t you say you were packing your things? Why haven’t you done


    anything at all?”Waving her phone, Winnie answered calmly, “I was answering a call.”Xavier did not


    suspect anything at all. “Looks like I still have to help you pack. This is my first time helping someone


    else pack. You’re a lucky woman, Dumbo.”Winnie teased, “Oh well, you don’t have a choice. It’s your


    fault for being so loyal to me. I can’t seem to chase you away no matter what I do.”Xavier arched a


    brow and ruffled Winnie’s hair. “Must you really tease me?”“What’s wrong? You can’t ept it?” Winnie


    raised her brow as well.“Of course. I’m a man, after all. Besides, teasing is not a big deal. Actions are


    the real deal.”Winnie was about to tell him she would satisfy his desires another day when Xavier’s


    phone suddenly rang.He answered it at once. “Hello? What? How could you let this happen? Where is


    she now?”Seeing Xavier frown, Winnie asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Who were you talking to just


    now? What happened?”“It’s the bodyguard. He says Granny woke up halfway. She doesn’t want to go


    back, so she purposely caused trouble and ran away. But she fell down the stairs while running. And


    now, she’s getting treated at the hospital.”“What?” Winnie almost lost her mind. “How did this happen?


    Which hospital are they in now? Where did she get hurt? Is it serious?”“They didn’t go far. The


    bodyguard sent her to the hospital near our ce. She should be fine. The initial diagnosis states that


    she has a fracture and mild concussion.”“What the…” Winnie almost cursed out loud. “Come on. Let’s


    go there now.”On the way, Winnie, in a bad mood, could not help butin to Xavier, “I just don’t


    understand what’s going on with Granny. She’s been acting weird ever since she came here. Back


    then, she’d still listen to me when I reasoned with her. Why is she so stubborn this time? I can’t


    convince her no matter what I say.”“Don’t panic. There are many things we can’t figure out at once. We


    have to give ourselves some time.”Xavier needed time to look into Jacinta, while Winnie needed time to


    ept a possibly harsh truth in the future.Winnie sighed. “I really don’t understand, but you’re right.


    What weck the most now is time. Let’s head over first.”“Okay.” Xavier took her hand, and they


    quickened their pace.However, the moment they stepped out of the hotel, a car stopped a few inches


    away from their feet.
