Silly Bride Chapter 263


    Chapter 263


    When the two of them went into the room, Winnie led the way ahead while Big ck Bear followed


    behind her.Therefore, it was Winnie who first entered the room with Big ck Bear on her heels.When


    they had gone into the room, Big ck Bear furtively locked the door.He thought Winnie didn’t notice it,


    but she had actually glimpsed his action through the vanity mirror right across the room


    door.Nheless, she pretended as though nothing had happened. She merely walked over to the


    side of the cab. Opening the cab door, she took out two bottles of wine.One of them was the


    color of champagne while the other was colorless.She ced both bottles of wine on the table and


    inquired with a faint smile, “Shall we have a drink? Which one do you prefer?”Big ck Bear said


    nothing, merely staring at her as though he wasn’t interested in drinking.Ignoring him, Winnie retrieved


    two wine sses.“I suppose you’d better drink foreign wine? You might not be used to drinking local


    wine,” she muttered as though speaking to herself.As she said that, she started uncorking the wine.But


    she was left with the use of a single hand then, and it was her left hand to boot. As such, things were


    rather difficult for her.For that reason, she nced back over her shoulder and asked Big ck Bear


    for help. “Hey, why are you still standing over there? Come and help me uncork the wine.”Big ck


    Bear remained silent, but this time, he finally budged. He strolled over to her.However, he didn’t


    approach her to uncork the wine.When he reached her back, he suddenly shot his hands out and


    wrapped them around her neck from behind.The muscles on his arms bulged, and he had unbelievable


    strength. In no time, Winnie started experiencing trouble breathing.Nevertheless, he evidently held


    himself back to a certain extent, not intending to strangle her to death.Realizing that, Winnie promptly


    demanded, “What are you doing? What exactly do you want to ask me?”Big ck Bear lowered his


    head and glowered at her.“You were sent over by those in South West Aploth, huh? In this area, no one


    else could possibly have such a formtion besides me. You must be a spy they sent out. What do


    they want? Lure me out and capture me back or kill me?”Winnie’s brows creased. It looks like he


    knows everything, even surmising my n urately.“What does the answer matter? What is the


    meaning of this now? Do you want to kill me? If so, why are you not making your move?”Big ck


    Bear ruthlessly strangled her again. “I don’t like to kill! But I’ve got to admit that the formtion in your


    hands is even better than mine. I believe you don’t want to die either, right?”Winnie struggled to


    breathe. “Of course, I don’t want to die. Who doesn’t want to live?”“If you want to live, I can spare you,


    but you must hand the formtion to me!”“What would be of me if I were to hand it to you? Would


    Leandro still keep me alive?”“I don’t care. But if you don’t hand it to me, I’m going to strangle you to


    death right here and now. You undoubtedly can’tst five minutes in my hands. Weigh it


    carefully!”Winnie was already running of out oxygen, so she relented. “Okay! I’ll hand it to you! I’ll give it


    to you!” There’s a pen and paper in the drawer under the table. Take them out. I’ll write the formtion


    down for you.”Hearing that, Big ck Bear instantly dipped his head and pulled the drawer open.Sure


    enough, there was a pen and paper in there. He quickly took them out and ced them on the table.


    “Write it down immediately, right this instant!”“Okay!” Winnie wed at his arm, urging, “Loosen your


    hold for a bit. I can’t quite breathe anymore, and my brain will run out of oxygen. Under such a


    circumstance, I can’t write it down at all.”That made sense. Thinking that she couldn’t escape from him


    anyway, Big ck Bear loosened his grip a fraction.Relief suffused Winnie, and she took in great gulps


    of breath. She only started writing several secondster.After writing two lines, she deliberately paused


    for a moment.As soon as she did so, Big ck Bear rushed her at once. “Don’t drag your feet! Hurry


    up and write.”In response, Winnie frowned. “Don’t rush me. I’m too nervous when you do so, and I


    might make a mistake.”While saying that, she crossed off the line she wrote earlier. “Look, I got the


    quantity wrong.”Staring at the paper, Big ck Bear questioned, “Are you sure it’s wrong? The content


    of methamphetamine is high in the first ce. Why did you cross it out?”Winnie breathed a sigh of relief


    upon seeing that the man had his full attention on the formtion.“You’ll understand when I’ve written


    down the entire formtion. Now, you only need to keep your eyes peeled.” As she said that, she


    shook her hand. “D*mn it! I hate using my left hand. It’s really too inconvenient.”Big ck Bear didn’t


    think much of her shaking her hand, for his thoughts were centered on the formtion. Unbeknownst to


    him, she was actually looking for a suitable angle by doing so.She prepared everything in that room


    meticulously, including the pen in her hand.Its tip was exceedingly sharp and fine, so it could be used


    as a weapon if she had a good grasp of the force and angle.She shook her hand earlier because she


    was looking for a suitable angle. By then, she already had a rough grasp of the position where she and


    Big ck Bear stood.After purposefully miswriting a parameter to attract his attention, she shot her


    hand back and stabbed him with the pen.While her blow wasn’t fatal, the tip of the pen punctured his


    throat unerringly.Never had Big ck Bear expected the woman before him to actually turn the tables


    and injure him with a mere pen.As the wound was at his throat, he couldn’t even shout. He could only


    make some low and unintelligible sounds.Following her sess, Winnie continued striking while the


    iron was hot. She took out a towel from the drawer. Holding her breath, she poured the bottle of “white


    wine” on the table onto the towel.In truth, it was no white wine. Instead, it was a bottle of colorless and


    transparent ether.After knocking Big ck Bear out, she whipped out a lighter and went to a corner of


    the wall.The two crates of wine Leandro sent over previously were all there. Taking two bottles out, she


    poured the rest of the wine over the curtains and furniture before lighting the curtains on fire.When she


    had done all that, she climbed out the window with the remaining two bottles and left.By the time the


    men keeping watch outside and Leandro noticed something amiss, her room was already aze.The


    instant Leandro saw the fire, he stood frozen on the spot.He suddenly found himself foolish beyond


    belief.She was the one who set Harold’sb on fire. She even managed to y a fool of someone like


    him; yet, I thought I could subdue her! He was so livid that steam wasing out of his ears. “D*mn it!


    Go and get that woman! No matter what, you’re to catch her! I want to cut her into a million pieces and


    feed her to the wolves! Why are you still spacing out? Hurry up and give chase!”But not long after he


    had given that order, he received another piece of bad news all out of the blue—his warehouse was on


    fire.All my stock and raw materials are in that warehouse, but that woman actually set fire to it all!The


    warehouse meant everything to him. At the end of the day, he could give up killing Winnie, but he


    couldn’t possibly give his warehouse up.Therefore, he hastily called back everyone he sent out to


    pursue her. Right then, they all worked to extinguish the fire to the best of their abilities to minimize the


    losses.Winnie had made preparations ages ago. After she had set two fires consecutively, especially


    the one at the warehouse, almost everyone in the entire Zeller residence was dispatched to put the fire


    out. Only the guard at the gate remained at his post.That granted her a smooth journey all the way to


    the doghole. In fact, it was far easier than when she escaped from Harold’s ce.Aware that Leandro


    had no extra manpower to pursue her, she didn’t slip into the woods but sprinted along the main


    road.When she had run for about a kilometer, a car suddenly approached from ahead.She instinctively


    slipped into the woods at the side of the road, but the car abruptly honked.Not daring to expose herself,


    she hid in the woods motionlessly. Only when she spotted Greta jumping out of the car while calling out


    “Ms. Gand” did she realize that it was Xaviering to pick her up.She swiftly stepped out of the


    woods and waved at Greta. “I’m here!”At the sound of Winnie’s voice, Greta promptly snapped her


    head around. Just when she was about to head over, a figure swept past her like a gust of wind.Xavier


    ran like the wind, reaching Winnie in a handful of steps.At the sight of her, he didn’t utter a single word


    but gathered her into his arms right away.Winnie enjoyed the sense of security in his arms, but still, she


    couldn’t help crying out, “Ouch! Darling, my hand is broken, and you’re hurting me.”“Sorry!” Xavier


    immediately dropped his hold on her. Cradling her face, he started kissing her face, from her forehead


    to her chin.Winnie initially wanted to dissuade him from being so frantic, but she suddenly realized that


    she wanted to kiss him as well. In fact, she yearned to share an intense kiss with him.s, it wasn’t an


    appropriate time then. Greta, who was far more rational than the couple, climbed into the driver’s seat


    and honked at them.At that, both of them became embarrassed. Winnie lifted her head and caressed


    Xavier’s face. “Come, let’s leave this ce quickly.”Xavier stared at her unblinkingly. At the same time,


    he held her hand tightly. “Are you tired? Can you still walk?”But after asking that, he didn’t give her the


    chance to speak at all and scooped her up without dy.Winnie wrapped an arm around his neck. At


    that very moment, she felt incredibly rxed.Subsequently, the two of them got into the car. Before


    turning the car around, Greta couldn’t resist ncing back over her shoulder.In the distance, she saw


    mes shooting into the sky.She couldn’t help ncing at Winnie through the rear-view mirror, querying


    with a chortle, “Ms. Gand, did you also set fire to Leandro’s ce?”Exhausted, Winnie sounded


    weak as she spoke. “Yeah. I couldn’t have gotten out easily if I hadn’t created some work for them.


    They’re all busy putting out the fire right now.”“Haha, how impressive, Ms. Gand! You’re really


    incredible! You’ve only been here for a few days, but you’ve set fire to two drug caches consecutively.


    Hahaha, how gratifying!”Winnie could hear the thrill in Greta’s voice. She chuckled softly. “You seem to


    detest drugs.”Again, Greta cast a look at her through the rear-view mirror. “Yeah. Although I’ve been


    making a living from a rted profession in such a ce, it doesn’t hinder me from detesting


    it.”Pausing for a moment, she added, “I’ve always known what I’ve been doing.”Winnie couldn’t shake


    off the feeling that Greta was different from other mercenaries, but she didn’t question her further.After


    a brief silence, Winnie asked Xavier, “Have you relocated Christopher and Professor White?”Xavier


    smoothed her slightly messy hair as he reassured gently, “Don’t worry. I’ve made all the arrangements.


    We can convene with them soon.”Frowning, Winnie sighed. “It’s a pity that Yulissa escaped.”Xavier


    continued to console her as he murmured, “It’s okay. As long as Professor White is with us, I believe


    she’ll definitely make an appearance. You haven’t gotten your ck badge back, yes?”“Yeah. She was


    adamant about only returning it to me after she had seen Professor White. Unexpectedly, I got the


    wrong person that night and took Professor White’s assistant instead.”“I was also shocked when I saw


    Professor White at that time. Fortunately, we all survived in the end,” Xaviermented.Nodding, Winnie


    inquired, “Oh yes, I couldn’t contact you through the ring sometimeter. Was there a problem with the


    receiving equipment on your end?”“Yes. I came up with a nter and got another one, but the


    previous recordings were all gone. What happened between you both subsequently? I only heard from


    Christopher that the two of you bumped into Yulissa. Was it her who broke your hand?”Winnie stole a


    peek at Xavier.It looks like Christopher didn’t tell him the events that transpired in the basement. Well,


    it’s a good thing. Those events are indeed pretty awkward to speak of. Besides, he’s a jealous person


    in nature. Knowing some things won’t do him any good.Thus, she only revealed a small part of


    them.“When we took off back then, we bumped into Yulissa. Initially, she thought she would be able to


    see Professor White this time, but it unexpectedly turned out to be someone else when the helmet was


    removed. She thought I was deliberately ying her for a fool, so she sabotaged us. A row broke out


    between us. Later, we so happened to bump into Harold. He heard that I blew up his ce and fled, so


    he was hunting me everywhere. Hence, he took both Christopher and me away. I’m sure you know


    what happened after that.”And so, she brushed over the originally terrifying incident with merely those


    few words. Xavier’s eyes brimmed with self-recrimination. “I’m sorry. I failed to protect you well.”Winnie


    nestled deeper into his embrace. “Don’t say that. It’s all in the past. The most important thing is to


    ensure that we’re careful henceforth.”Murmuring in agreement. Xavier hugged her tightly. “Let’s go to


    Salinsburgh right now.”Salinsburgh was Shaun’s territory. At present, Jacinta and Rachel were still


    receiving treatment at a hospital there.Xavier had also sent Riley over. Right then, they were heading


    there to convene with the others.However, they had no idea of the trouble that awaited them there.Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
