Jacinta shivered in fear at that thought. “Fortunately, I didn’t leave for real, or I’ll be leading Xavier right
to the clue. You should take care of this, then. Remember to erase all traces after that.”“Don’t worry,
Mom. I know what to do. By the way, you said Winnie got back. Did she realize something was
off?”“No.” Jacinta thought about it and added, “I was packing when she came back, so I was caught by
surprise. However, I’ve made up an excuse, and she bought it readily. I don’t think she suspects
me.”“Okay, I’ll handle the rest. Mom, you must make sure Winnie doesn’t discover anything. After all,
Xavier only listens to her. If she also starts to suspect you, our ns will be in vain.”“I know. Stuart, I
don’t care what you do to Xavier, but you can’t hurt Winnie. She might not be rted to me by blood,
but to me, she’s my granddaughter.”Winnie happened to overhear Jacinta’sst sentence when she
stepped out of the bathroom.She had been thinking about Jacinta when she was taking a
shower.Someone must’ve bullied Granny when I wasn’t around. Otherwise, why would she suddenly
want to return to her hometown alone?Thus, she quickly took a shower and came out to hear Jacinta
talking to someone on the phone.She asked, “Granny, who are you talking to? Why did you mention my
name? Was it the person who called when I arrived earlier?”Jacinta didn’t want Winnie to think she was
acting suspicious, so she didn’t close the door when she made the call.She had no idea Winnie would
finish showering in just a few minutes. After all, Winnie would usually spend half an hour in the
shower.However, she quickly came up with an excuse. “Yes. It’s Abel from my hometown. You know,
the one who guards the door of the shoe factory.”“Abel?” Winnie remembered who that was. If she
wasn’t mistaken, Abel always had romantic feelings for Jacinta. “Granny, did you pack up to head back
because of Abel? Did he ask you to go back?”That was actually true. As Winnie had that thought,
Jacinta yed along. “You can put it that way. I didn’t even have anyone to talk to when you weren’t
around. Abel called me a few times, so I chatted with him. He knew I wasn’t happy with my grandson-
inw and told me that you have your own lives and that we shouldn’t disturb you. As he offered to
keep mepany, I thought it was a good idea and made up my mind. When he called again a while
ago, I told him you refused to let me leave. He got upset, so I chided him for a bit. How could he say
that? You’re my granddaughter, and he’s nothingpared to you. Anyway, I’ve decided to stay. No
one can kick me out!”Winnie was amused. Granny’s decision was pretty hasty. If she wanted to spend
the rest of her life with Abel, she would’ve done that ages ago. I can’t believe she came up with that
excuse to not disturb my life.Sighing, Winnie said, “Granny, don’t let Abel’s words change your mind!
My home is always your home. As long as you’re willing, I’ll take you with me even if I settle
elsewhere.” …After dinner, Winnie had a good rest.She was woken up by her phone ringing the next
morning.Squinting her eyes, she took her phone to discover it was Lucas. At once, she blew her
top.“Lucas Marsh! I hope this is urgent. Otherwise, I’ll hunt you down and beat you up! Do you know
what time it is? It’s not even eight o’clock yet! I dreamed that I just fell asleep, but you woke me up! I
woke up twice—once in my dream, and once in reality! I’m really sleepy!”Lucas sounded rattled on the
other end of the line as he pleaded, “Your Majesty, Ms. Gand, I’m really sorry! But please prepare to
hear what I’m about to tell you. After my sister discovered what happened to Christopher, she didn’t eat
or sleep for the past twenty-four hours. Today, she finally left her room. However, she’s in a bad
condition. Christopher’s death came as a terrible blow to her. All she wants now is to find his body.
She’s insisting on going to Manchernius herself.”Hearing that, Winnie was wide awake. “Stop her, then.
Don’t you know how dangerous Manchernius is? How can you let her go there?”“I know!” Lucas
answered. “I’ve hidden her passport and ID card. Without these, she cannot go anywhere. I managed
to stop her from going to Manchernius, but I can’t stop her from finding you.”“What?” Winnie sat up.
“Where is she going to find me? Does she know my current address?”“She might head to your
company, Gand Group.”They were still talking on the phone when Lisanne’s call arrived.Winnie
immediately said, “She’s calling me. I need to go now.”She then answered Lisanne’s call. “Lisanne,
where are you? Are you at Gand Group?”On the other end of the line, Lisanne’s hoarse voice rang
out. “No. I’m starving, so I’m currently eating. Where are you? I’ll go to you after I finish my food.” She
sounded like she had not had a drop of water for a long time.“No need. I’lle to you.” Lisanne’s
voice was weak, so Winnie told her to stay put. “Send me your location, and I’lle to you
now.”“Okay. I’ll wait for you here. I need to talk to you.”“Okay!” After the call ended, Winnie soon
received Lisanne’s location.She quickly washed up and left in her car without eating breakfast.…It took
Winnie half an hour to arrive at her destination.When she arrived, Lisanne was munching on her pasta
hungrily without caring about her image.Afraid that she would eat too much, Winnie told her, “Eat
slowly. Did you finish the empty tes? Why are you eating so much in one go?”Lisanne slurped on
her soup. “I need to eat to gain energy! Winnie, tell me. Who do you think took Christopher’s body
away? Could it be Harold Horton? How do I find him? I need to get Christopher back. You must have a
way to send me there, right?”Winnie frowned. “Lisanne, I’m not sure about that, so I won’t be able to
provide an answer. However, things might not go your way even if you were to head there in person. If
Harold is still alive, he might already be in Chanaea to look for me.”
