Silly Bride Chapter 291
Chapter 291
Xavier lowered his gaze and discovered a pair of unfamiliar hands that belonged to a woman.Since
they did not belong to Winnie, he turned around, gripped the woman’s neck, and pinned her against the
bathroom wall without hesitation.He was stunned when he saw her face. She looked like Winnie.“Who
are you? How did you get in?” Xavier growled.The woman was dark-haired, fair-skinned, and dressed
in revealing clothes. Upon taking a closer look, Xavier found her eyes a little ssy as if she was in a
daze.Instead of answering his question, she wrapped her slender arms around his waist again.“Help
me. Please… It’s so hot… I feel horrible…” she pleaded, her innocent and ssy eyes filled with
desire.Xavier was utterly disgusted by the woman’s touch. He shoved her hands away roughly.This
time, she did not touch him. Instead, she began removing her pathetically thin sleeveless silk dress.At
the same time, she twisted her body in front of Xavier. “Please… I’m begging you… I feel so horrible…
I’ll do anything for you. All I ask is for you to hug me. Hug me and love me…”Xavier had never felt more
disgusted as he stared at the woman who was begging him shamelessly.She even had a face that
looked extremely simr to Winnie’s. How dare she do such a thing? This is an insult to
Dumbo!“Disgusting!” Unwilling to take another nce at her, Xavier turned her around swiftly to make
her face the wall and ced her arms above her head.“Ow! It hurts! Let me go! Let me go now… Ah…”
the woman implored.She did her best to cry out in an alluring manner, for she knew how seductive her
voice sounded to men.However, that did not apply to Xavier.While restraining her, he swiftly tied her
hands with a towel and tossed another on top of her head to cover her face.Xavier looked much better
when he did not have to see her face.Leaning against the sink, he took a dry towel and dried his hair,
which was still dripping wet. At the same time, he interrogated, “Answer me. Who are you and why are
you here?”“I don’t know. I was drugged.” The woman on the floor squirmed about while speaking
seductively. “I think I live around here, or perhaps I took the wrong way and identally came in. I
didn’t do it on purpose. Please… I feel absolutely terrible now. Who I am is not important. What’s more
important now is that I need a man, and you’re the only person who can help me now. I’m begging you.
Just take it as if you’re doing a good deed. You won’t lose anything if you have sex with me. Besides, I
won’t ask you for anything. All I need is a night with you. Just one night. I promise I’ll leave once I feel
better. I won’t pester you. Please!”Xavier could not help but snort when he heard her words. “Drugged?
How are you drugged when you can speak so clearly and coherently? Do you really think all men will
act on their impulses when they see you looking weak and helpless? I hate people like you who use
means like this, especially when you look like that.”Whenever he thought about how simr she and
Winnie looked, displeasure rose in his heart.Suddenly, he stopped toweling his hair and threw it at her
head. “Tell me! What’s your motive foring here and putting on this act?”The woman received no
orders telling her to stop carrying out the mission, so she lied, “I don’t have any motive. What motive
could I possibly have anyway? I was really drugged. Please… Help me… I feel awful…”Xavier
narrowed his eyes at her. “You’re one stubborn person, aren’t you? Fine. Let me rephrase my question.
Tell me. Was it Wilhelm Speiser who sent you?” He knew something was off from the very
beginning.There was a brief pause, but the woman still uttered the same words, “I don’t know who
you’re talking about. Help me. Just take a look at me, please. I’m sure you’ll change your mind if you
do. Is it because you’re afraid?”Xavier found her words amusing. “Hah! Trying to goad me, eh? You
know exactly why your employer sent you. I’m sorry to break this to you, but I won’t be seduced by you
just because you look like that. Tell you what, if I was not bound by thew and morality, I would’ve
taken down this face of yours. Sure, I can save you, but I’m not obliged to do so. I can call the police for
you instead.”With that, he left the bathroom.At the same time, in a house on the other side of the street,
was Winnie, who was fuming with rage.Through the surveince footage, Xavier could be seen walking
out of the bathroom and looking for a phone to make a police report.Things had progressed to such a
point, yet Wilhelm remained motionless. Winnie could not help but frown as she stared at him.“Are you
done? He passed your test. Give me my phone this instant. Are you really going to let him make a
police report? I don’t want to make such a big fuss out of this.”Wilhelm still found Xavier an eyesore,
but the truth was clearlyid out before him.Expressionlessly, Wilhelm returned the phone to her. “Not
bad. ording to Grandma’s orders, you can bring him back to the manor to meet her and Grandpa
tomorrow.”Winnie took the phone, giving him a brief nce. “Great. Finally, it’s over.”With that, she
dialed Xavier’s number.The moment the call was connected, she said, “Xavier, it’s me. Don’t call the
police.”Xavier was not surprised to receive a call from Winnie at that moment.He fell silent for a few
seconds and asked, “Where are you now?”Feeling extremely guilty over everything that had happened
that day, Winnie hurriedly replied, “I’ll go over to you now.”“Okay. I’ll be waiting for you.” Xavier hung up
as soon as he finished because he heard a rather loud noise in the bathroom. I should check it
out.Winnie put away her phone and was about to leave when Wilhelm called out to her.His brows were
tightly knitted as he stared intently at her. “I just want you to be happy, and I hope you understand my
intentions. Even if we made a mistake today, the Speiser family will always be your support.”The anger
Winnie felt for Wilhelm made her forget to say goodbye to him when she was about to leave.However,
deep down, she knew where he wasing from. In fact, he had done a great job from his stance.He
was a rtive who grew up with her, after all. Even if they got into a fight, she could never bring herself
to me or give him the cold shoulder. “Wilhelm, my love for you has never changed.” Looking at his
eyes that were filled with stubbornness and gentleness at the same time, she could not help but step
forward and hug him.When Wilhelm heard those words, he finally rxed his deeply creased brows.He
raised his hand and gently patted her back. “Grandma and I love you too. Now run along. Go to where
you should be.”Winnie bobbed her head in response and marched out.It was raining cats and dogs
outside as though someone had applied a grey filter to the night sky.Winnie was in such a hurry that
she ignored her surroundings.By the time she arrived at the door and was about to unlock it, she
noticed a shivering person standing beside her.Startled, she reached out and grabbed the person by
the shoulder.The person wailed in agony, “It’s me, Nate! I’m an ally!”Sure enough, the voice belonged
to Nate. However, it was also that he was Nate that Winnie did not release him right away.She asked
coldly, “Haven’t you left already? Why are you still lurking outside?”Nate exined, “I wasn’t lurking. I
was already standing out here, but you didn’t notice me. Can you let me go first? It hurts.”Winnie’s eyes
narrowed, and she loosened her grip. “I don’t know why you came here, but I don’t have the energy to
talk to you now. Stay here. Don’t go anywhere.”“Here?” Nate massaged his aching shoulder. “I’m
drenched. Can’t you let me in to warm myself up?”Winnie eyed him and scoffed, “Let you warm
yourself up? Do you think I’m a saint who returns a grudge with a favor? Stay here and endure the
cold!”With that, Winnie went on to unlock the door.Gazing at her side profile, Nate said, “I’ll do whatever
you want. I’m sure you can see I’m not here to cause trouble this time. I’m really here to
apologize.”Because of the rainwater on her finger, the fingerprint recognition failed to identify her
fingerprint. She proceeded to key in the passcode, ignoring Nate the entire time.Just as what Nate had
said, he had sincerelye over to apologize to her. It did not matter if she ignored him, for he would
find a way to touch her heart.Just then, the door in front of them was suddenly swung open from the
inside, and a disheveled woman walked out, meeting Winnie’s eyes.Upon meeting Winnie’s scrutinizing
gaze, the woman immediately retreated timidly.Unfortunately, Winnie had no intentions of stepping
aside from the door. The woman had no choice but to make her way around the former and scurry out
of the house.Before she could take a few more steps, Winnie said icily, “Don’t do this kind of thing in
the future.”The woman paused. “But I need money.”Winnie frowned at her response. “You’re able-
bodied. There’s nothing you can’t do.”The woman shook her head and smiled bitterly. “Ms. Speiser,
we’re of different worlds. You’ll never understand what it’s like for me. Don’t worry. I promise I’ll never
appear in front of you and your man again.”“I hope you know what you’re doing,” Winnie uttered briefly,
not wanting to waste her breath on the woman.Nate was rendered speechless.His eyes widened in
shock as they darted between Winnie and the woman under the rain.“You two look… alike. Why did
shee out of here looking like that?”Nate was perplexed. Based on what Xavier had told him, that
ce was Winnie’s residence.Why is there another woman living here? And why are her clothes in
such a mess? Xavier should be the only person in there now. What’s going on? Nate could not help but
frown at that thought.“Put away those nonsensical thoughts of yours. It’s not what you think.” Right
then, Xavier walked out of the house.His half naked body left Nate looking even more confused.Yet, no
one paid attention to him.Pinning his eyes on Winnie, Xavier stretched out his hands and asked, “Do
you need me to exin this to you?”“Perhaps I should be the one asking you this.” Winnie took his
hands and held it tightly. After a moment of silence, she added, “Wee to my territory.”Xavier’s eyes
were aze. When he heard those words, he could not help but let out a sigh. “Winnie, I finally got to
see you.”He reached out and pulled the woman he loved into his embrace in an urgent yet gentle
manner.Following that, Winnie shut the door, allowing themselves to hug each other tightly.Xavier
lowered his head to peck her on the lips. Even so, he was already satisfied by hugging her.As heContent from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
brushed her hair gently, a frown marred his forehead. “You’re wet. You should take a bath.”“What about
you? You’re wet too.” Winnie slipped her hands under his shirt, cing them on his waist.Her tiny
gesture made him lower his voice. “Let’s bathe together.”Winnie lifted her head and pinched his chin.
“Good idea. I should clean you up properly. Where did that woman touch you just now? Hmm? Here?
Or here?”cing his chin on her head, he murmured hoarsely, “Neither. I pushed her away in less than
a second. I’m still yourspletely yours.”“Good to know.”After taking a bath, both of themy on the
large, soft bed.They had exined many things to each other in the bathroom, and Xavier had found
out that all the happenings that day were all a test Wilhelm had for him.Winnie had thought he would
get mad at her. To her surprise, he thought it was a great idea.He said, “If I have a daughter in the
future, I’ll give my future son-inw a tougher test than Wilhelm’s.”After considering it from another
angle, Winnie realized his words made sense.“But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Did you guys
delete all your information on the Chanaeanwork? Why the sudden decision?” asked Xavier.Winnie
exined, “It’s for my safety. You know I’ve offended someone in Jipsdale. I doubt they’ll let me off so
easily.”“True. Even if they didn’t delete your information, I would’ve done the same. Harold might be in
Chanaea now. He wants to get revenge on you,” said Xavier, hugging her tightly.“Really? Where did
you get this information from? Is it reliable?” Winnie frowned.“It’s from Nate. He should be telling the
truth this time.”Winnie narrowed her eyes. “Nate, huh? I almost forgot about him if you didn’t bring up
his name. He’s still outside. I think it’s time I meet him.”
