Xavier lowered his head and nced at Winnie. “Do you think I don’t have the slightest trust in you? Is
your taste in men that bad?”“Oh my.” She reached up and stroked his face. “You look like you’re really
angry. Don’t get upset, okay?”Xavier replied after a long pause, “I’m not.”“Then why do you still look so
grim?”“That’s my nature.”“As if I’ll believe that.” Winnie rolled her eyes at him and lost any interest in
comforting him. She sat up and made to leave his embrace.However, Xavier would not allow that and
pulled her back into his arms. “You must be delighted now. Tonight’s news is enough to blow up the
inte. As long as none of us speak up to rify the issue, it will remain a hot topic.”“Indeed.” Winnie
was getting sleepy and yawned before continuing, “It’s best if it can spread across every street and
alley of Chanaea.”Xavier was still sporting a stern expression. “Never use this tactic again. I don’t want
to see others talking about you like this online.”She gave him a light punch. “But this isn’t part of my
n at all. It was unexpected, and Shania was the biggest unforeseen factor!”However, the result was
just as the two had predicted.Nate’s birthday banquet devolved into aplete farce. News in the
entertainment industry had always spread widely; moreover, it was regarding someone as popr as
him.After such amotionst night, his image was on the verge of copse, while Winnie instantly
became well-known by everyone.Whether it was those supporting Nate or those taking the opportunity
to defame him, they were all frantically digging up her information.Soon, Winnie and Nate were on the
trending topics together.Furthermore, the topic of her and Nate was trending more than that of Xavier
and her.Coupled with her intention to spend money on marketing, her affairs gained nationwide
attention for quite a long time.However, no suspicious person appeared around her during that
period.Likewise, Xavier had not encountered any incidents since he was nearly hit by a flower
pot.There was nothing Winnie could not do about the oue, but she did not expect that her news
would bring Wilhelm over.…Xavier was even more nervous than Winnie about Wilhelm’s decision to do
that.However, thetter’s visit was not unexpected as he had called Winnie in advance.When she
received the call, Xavier was busy drying her hair. He overheard the entire conversation and
ascertained that the news was the cause.Wilhelm had previously put a lot of effort into deleting all of
Winnie’s information from Chanaea, but she became famous on the inte again in the blink of an
eye.The fact that it happened and it was still the same kind of scandalous news made him very
unhappy, so he nned toe to Avenport while he was on business to find out what was going
on.Hence, Xavier and Winnie received Wilhelm at Lagune Mansion two dayster.After learning about
Winnie’s motives and ns, thetter also expressed his understanding. In any case, there was no use
in him objecting anymore.After they had finished discussing her matter, she inquired about the purpose
of Wilhelm’s trip. Only then did she find out that his main purpose was to visit Erihal to inspect the
diamond mines, but the oue did not appear to be satisfactory.Xavier happened to be interested in
this business, especially since it was something that Wilhelm wished to develop, so he suggested
coborating with thetter.He did this not only to further his interests but to strengthen his bonds with
the Speiser family as well because he wished to get their approval on his rtionship with Winnie.The
Speiser family was the richest in the world, so he would not allow himself to be any lesser than them.As
for Wilhelm, his eyes lit up immediately after Xavier mentioned that he had won the bid for the
development rights of a diamond mine and several gold mines in Alendor.“I think we can
discuss…”Just like that, the two men stepped into the study amicably to discuss business.Seeing that,
Winnie was very happy about it.They talked all afternoon and did not emerge from the study until
before dinner.The oue of their discussion was an on-site inspection.Winnie was quite surprised
after hearing the news. “You reached a decision so soon?”“We did.” Wilhelm gave Xavier a rare
compliment. “Mr. Fairchild is a very resolute person, and I admire his style of handling things.”Winnie
nodded. “Yes. I’ve long been aware of that. By the way, how long will you be there? When are you
leaving?”“I’ll make some arrangements for the work at hand and leave probably the day after tomorrow.
This time, it’ll take at least half a month.” The person who spoke was Xavier.Oh no, I am already
missing my dumbo even before the trip.He could not help but hold her hand in front of Wilhelm. “Do you
want to go with us?” he asked.Before Winnie could reply, Wilhelm did it for her. “She won’t go. She’s
very afraid of the heat. Don’t you know that?”“Yes…” Winnie nodded at Xavier. “Don’t you know that?
You guys go by yourselves since it’s your business, not mine. Besides, I honestly don’t have any
interest in gold and silver mines.”“All right.” Xavier was a little disappointed but even more reluctant.
“Since you don’t like that ce, don’t go then.”Winnie refilled their wine sses. “Then I wish you all
the best in advance.”What made her even happier was that the rtionship between the two of her
loved ones was slowly easing up.…After Xavier and Wilhelm had gone abroad, Winnie went back to
live with Jacinta.The focus of her current work had always been on finding Harold and Greta, but
unfortunately, neither of those had made any substantial progress.Her life, however, had changed as a
result of being harassed and abused online by Nate’s fanatical fans.Once, several teenage girls
dumped dirty water on her as she was leaving Gand Group.They were only fourteen or fifteen years
old at most and ran away after doing that. They even did things like running a red light when crossing
the road.Winnie truly had no recourse against those children.Although she did not publicize this matter,
Nate somehow found out about it.He tried to call her in the hope that she would give him a chance to
apologize in person.However, she thought it was unnecessary, so she rejected him many times.Yet,
she never expected that when she took Jacinta out to dinner this time, she would run into Nate’s
fanatical fans once more…
