Silly Bride Chapter 309


    Chapter 309


    “Xavier.” Winnie leaned over and asked, “Are you throwing a tantrum? Of course, I know that we can


    spend money, but we need eye-catching content for that! It’s not like I’ll go viral if I post a clip of me


    drinking water. Besides, Harold could be hiding in the outback. It would be useless to spend money on


    a one-time advertisement like that. I need something that will trend and stir up continuous discussions,


    not something people will scroll by.”“Then, let’s announce that we’ll be holding a wedding,” Xavier


    suggested earnestly. “I’ll gift you a luxury car, a mansion, and a diamond ring—the kind of diamond ring


    that people will talk about for months.”“That’s too formal. Besides, we’ve never nned this before nor


    informed Grandpa and Grandma. It won’t be good to make things so formal. What I mean is, keep it


    casual. Take this seriously and think it through!”Although Xavier was upset, that did not stop him from


    helping Winnie with her problems.“Actually, there’s an uing opportunity. I think a lot of reporters


    will be gathering there. There will likely be tons of articles all over the ce even if you don’t spend a


    dime,” he mentioned.His words immediately piqued Winnie’s interest. “Oh? What opportunity is


    that?”Xavier nced at her and remarked, “You might not want to go though.”“Why?” Winnie got even


    more curious at that.“You really want to know?”“Duh. I’m this close to holding you at knifepoint so you


    could tell me.”Xavier nodded. “All right then. Wait for me here.”When Winnie saw him standing up to


    leave, she held on to his arm and got to her feet as well. “Let’s go together. I want to see what this


    mysterious act is all about.”Xavier looked down at Winnie, his eyes darkening. “I don’t know what


    mysterious act you’re talking about. What I know is that there’s a gorgeous woman before me.”Then,


    he leaned down to approach her.Winnie did not stop him, but just as their noses were about to touch,


    she suddenly lifted a finger to press his lips.“Show me first,” she said with a sly grin.Xavier couldn’t help


    but clench his jaw and bite her ear yfully. “You naughty girl!”Upon seeing his reaction, Winnie burst


    intoughter. “I love seeing you being so helpless even when I frustrate you.”As Xavier gazed at her


    lovingly, it was as if honey was dripping from his eyes. “Come with me.”They walked side by side to his


    table, where Xavier took out an exquisite card from the drawer and handed it to Winnie.At first nce,


    Winnie knew that it was an invitation. She flipped it open, only to find that it was an invite to Nate’s


    birthday party the next evening.Noticing the look of surprise shing across her eyes, Xavier queried,


    “What do you think? You don’t want to go, do you?”Winnie did not answer his question directly. She


    returned the invitation card to him and said, “He’s a trending star in the entertainment industry, and he’s


    also from a rich family. In that case, there will be a lot of celebrities and media attending his birthday


    party, right?”“Yes.” Xavier bobbed his head.“Then I’ll go. Although I don’t have an invitation, I can go


    with you as your femalepanion.”Xavier furrowed his brows at her words. “Femalepanion?


    You’re my wife—my legal spouse!”“Did you get possessed by a dictionary today? You’re being so fussy


    about my usage of words,” Winnie quipped.Xavier huffed, “I wasn’t nning to go to the party, but I


    guess I’ll have to go to apany you. You have topensate me for this.”“Oh, my goodness,


    Xavier. Are you acting coy with me right now?” Xavier was rendered speechless at that. After a while,


    he managed, “It seems like I’m not being assertive enough. I said you have topensate me. The


    best way to do that would be to give yourself to me.”“Okay, I’ll do that.” Winnie pinched Xavier’s chin


    and purred, “Wash yourself clean tonight and wait for me at home.”Instantly, Xavier’s eyes lit up.


    “Really? You’re not lying?”“Cross my heart!”In the afternoon, Winnie visited Mason with some people to


    discuss the search for Greta.Following that, she returned straight to Aqua Moana.After having dinner


    with Jacinta, she headed upstairs.Because of her promise in the morning, Xavier was already waiting


    for her in the room at that moment.In fact, he was already done bathing when she entered.Not only


    that, he even put on some music and lighted scented candles to create a cozy and romantic


    atmosphere.Winnie was also someone who loved romantic ambience.As she stood under the warm


    light, her beautiful face looked gentle.“Did you prepare all this for me?”“Yes.” Xavier stepped forward,


    wrapping his arms around her. “Although you didn’t mention it, I know you like stuff like this. I decorated


    everything by myself. Since I was a little short on time, this was the best I coulde up with. Next


    time, I’ll n it properly.”Winnie snuggled against him and assured him, “This is more than enough. It


    means a lot more when you decorate personally rather than making someone do the work. I like it very


    much.”“I’m d you like it.” Xavier took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the burning desire within


    him. His voice was hoarse as he said, “I missed you. I missed you so, so much. We haven’t had a night


    like this for months already.”“I missed you too,” Winnie was moved and said earnestly.What she got inContentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    response was a passionate, heated kiss.Soon, they crashed into the bed, the flower petals crushed


    under their bodies.Winnie gripped Xavier’s shoulder and yelped, “Go slow!”Right at that crucial


    moment, her phone began to ring.They decided to just ignore it, but the phone rang endlessly.In his


    frustration, Xavier wanted to grab the phone and throw it away.However, when he caught a glimpse of


    the word Granny on the screen, he paused his movements.Winnie also saw the caller ID.She took the


    phone andy down on her back, gesturing at Xavier to keep quiet as she answered the call.Despite


    the resentful look in Xavier’s eyes, he cooperated and stopped what he was doing.Winnie cleared her


    throat and chirped, “Hello, Granny. What’s up?”“Winnie, can youe over? I identally tripped.”


    Jacinta’s anxious voice sounded from the other end of the line.“What?” Winnie sprang up from the bed.


    “Where are you? I’ll go to you right away!”Hearing that Jacinta tripped and fell, Xavier hurriedly offered,


    “I’ll go downstairs with you.”“Winnie, you shoulde alone. I tripped while I was taking a bath. Come


    and help me up,” Jacinta asserted after hearing Xavier.“Okay, I’ll head there right now! Just stay still


    and don’t move. I’m going downstairs now,” Winnie reminded worriedly.“Okay, hurry up.”After hanging


    up, Winnie swiftly dressed herself.As she did that, she exined to Xavier, “Granny is in the bathroom,


    so it isn’t appropriate for you to be there. I’ll go to her on my own.”Xavier nodded. “Call me if you need


    anything.”“I know.” Winnie did thest button on her chiffon blouse and gave Xavier a quick peck.With a


    towel wrapped around his waist, Xavier walked her to the door. He knew that Winnie likely wouldn’t


    return to him that night.In fact, he even suspected that Jacinta was doing this on purpose.
