Silly Bride Chapter 318
Chapter 318
“Nate?”Winnie was momentarily at a loss for words.She wanted to use Nate of getting in her way,
but she figured she shouldn’t be that unreasonable since the man had sacrificed himself to protect
her.The assant in front of her dropped the knife and ran away immediately after realizing that they
had stabbed the wrong person.At that moment, Winnie recognized that the person was a woman, and
she was most probably Nate’s fan.She could tolerate these fanatical fans throwing things at her, but
they had gone too far this time by attempting to stab her with a knife in broad daylight. Thus, she was
determined to send the culprit to prison.Jacinta was shouting to alert everyone about the incident when
that woman stabbed Nate.Her voice was loud, and she yelled several times in a row, so she quickly
attracted the attention of passersby. A few good samaritans even stepped forward to help apprehend
the assant.Winnie took off after the assant too. Soon, thetter was subdued by Winnie and the
passersby.Her mask identally fell off while she was struggling, and Winnie recognized the woman at
a nce.She was a little surprised. “Shania?” She’s not a fan of Nate?Shania spat in response and
said with disgust, “You are the one I wanted to kill, b*tch! How dare you mess with me? I will make you
pay a heavy price!”Winnie found the whole situation hrious. “You were the one who provoked me
first. Anyway, you should save these words for the police. I don’t want to hear them.”With that, Winnie
picked up Shania’s hat, crumpled it into a ball, and stuffed it into Shania’s mouth.Since she was holding
Shania down and couldn’t call the police, she asked the passersby for help.After learning that someone
had called the police, she shoved Shania aside.After a while, Jacinta walked over supporting
Nate.Winnie nced at the blood dripping beside Nate’s feet and couldn’t help frowning. “Aren’t you
going to the hospital?”“Yes. I’ve already called an ambnce. It will be here soon.” After exining,
Nate asked, “Are you okay? Are you injured?”“I’m fine.” Winnie swallowed the words that were at the
tip of her tongue for she felt that now was not the time to say them. “Just take care of yourself. Don’t do
anything reckless in the future.”“All right,” Nate responded softly. “I panicked just now. Now that I think
about it, you probably would’ve caught her if I didn’t show up just now. I’m sorry. Looks like I’ve done
something wrong out of goodwill.”Winnie hummed a response. “Find somece to sit down and rest
since you’re injured. Don’t stand here.”The security guards in the shopping mall rushed over three
minutester, while the police car and ambnce arrived simultaneously five minutester.Winnie and
Jacinta went directly to the police station because they were not injured, while Nate was taken away by
the ambnce.They went to the hospital after they finished recording their statements at the
station.After all, Nate blocked a knife for Winnie, so by right, she should go and visit him.Mason drove
the car to the hospital upon listening to Winnie’s order.On the way there, Jacinta asked Winnie,
“Winnie, why did that Shania girl want to kill you? I asked the police officers about this, but they didn’t
tell me her motive. Can you tell me what’s going on?” “Shania has always been petty and narrow-
minded. She must have done it to get back at me. Last time, she yelled at me during Nate’s birthday
party, and Xavier was pissed off, so he taught her a lesson. I think the punishment she got for her own
actions was the cause of her mental perversion.”“But she doesn’t look like a bad person to me. What
did Xavier do to force a person into such a state?”Winnie looked at Jacinta in disbelief. “Granny, how
could you say that? She’s a woman with a problematic character. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have picked
on me for no reason at the clothing store in the first ce. What she said on the night of the banquet
was even more extreme. Even if Xavier didn’t make a move, her agency wouldn’t be able to handle her
mess for her and would definitely terminate their contract with her. Xavier wanted to teach her a lesson,
so he called her agency to cklist her. Under such circumstances, if she couldn’t bear her
predicament and asked to terminate the contract, she would need to pay hugepensation. This is
the whole story. She was merely stewing in her own juice.”Jacinta exined herself, “Oh, so that’s how
it is. I thought Xavier had pulled off some shady tricks. Looks like I’ve misunderstood him.”Winnie
frowned. “Granny, Xavier is really not as bad as you think.”Twenty minutester, Winnie and Jacinta
arrived at the hospital.Instead of visiting Nate right away, Winnie went to meet Nate’s attending doctor
first, as she wanted to know about Nate’s condition straight from the horse’s mouth.The attending
doctor routinely asked, “Are you the patient’s family member?”In order to understand Nate’s condition,
Winnie responded, “Yes. I want to know his current condition. Is it serious? Are his internal organs
injured? Does he need to be hospitalized?”“Hmm… Wait a minute. Let me take a look,” said the
attending doctor while clicking on Nate’s medical record on theputer.After taking a look at the
record, he raised his head to look at Winnie.Then, he said solemnly, “The external injury he suffered
isn’t serious, but I will advise the patient to be hospitalized for close observation because we found out
that the patient has some heart problems during the examination.”Winnie was a little taken by surprise.
“You’re saying that he may have heart disease which has nothing to do with his wound. Is that
so?”“That’s right.” The attending doctor nodded. “Look at this film. The knife was stabbed between the
two ribs, but the wound isn’t deep, and his vital orangs weren’t hurt, too.”“Okay.” Winnie nodded. “I get
it. Does he know about the result?”The doctor hummed in response, and before he could say anything,
Nate’s voice sounded from outside the door. “I already know that.”Winnie was surprised by his
presence. “Why aren’t you resting in bed?”“It’s not a severe injury, anyway, so I thought I’de here
to ask the doctor some questions. I didn’t expect to see you here,” Nate exined before he asked
tentatively, “Are you here to visit me?”Winnie nced at him. “What else could I be here for? Since
you’re fine, I’ll leave now.”“Wait a minute!” Nate immediately stopped Winnie. “Can you wait? I have
something to tell you.”Winnie frowned reluctantly, but on ount of the man’s injury, she still agreed,
“Okay. I’ll wait for you outside.”N?velDrama.Org content.
