Silly Bride Chapter 319


    Chapter 319


    Winnie led Jacinta out of the doctor’s office.ncing at the sign hung above the corridor, Jacinta


    asked, “Winnie, I’m going to the restroom. Do you want toe along?”Winnie refused since she had


    a feeling Nate mighte out anytime. “I’ll pass. I don’t want Nate toe out and find no one


    around.”“Okay, then I’m going. I may need a while. When I’m done, I’ll go straight to his ward to find


    you.”“All right. If we settle things fast, I’ll wait for you outside the restroom. Go ahead.”Jacinta agreed


    and soon reached the restroom.After finding the innermost cubicle and confirming there was no one


    around, she immediately called someone.Her call went through almost immediately, and she lowered


    her voice, “Hello, Stuart. I discovered something. Today, Winnie and I met that crazy woman. She


    wanted to kill Winnie because Xavier punished her for offending Winnie. I bet she resents Xavier, so I


    think we can use her.”After a pause, she continued, “Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. However, you


    need to think of a way to release her. She has already been captured, but if there’s proof that she’s


    mentally disabled, she won’t need to go to jail… I know it’s tough, but we must try. I can’t possibly throw


    a flower pot again, right? He and Winnie have been inseparabletely, and I don’t want to hurt her


    identally… Okay, it’s settled then. I’ll inform you after I find out Xavier’s schedule.”Meanwhile, Nate


    stepped out of his attending physician’s office. His face was horridly pale, but he still forced a smile


    upon seeing Winnie waiting for him in the corridor.ncing at him, Winniemented mercilessly,


    “Don’t smile if you don’t feel like it. You look so ugly.”She didn’t have a good impression of Nate, so her


    reply was curt. To her surprise, Xavier’s smile deepened despite her harsh words.“Are you crazy? I


    said your smile is ugly, yet you’re still smiling?” Winnie asked with a frown.“Yes.” Pursing his lips, Nate


    exined, “It’s been a long time since someone was honest with me. Even when I have dark eye


    circles and a horrible skin condition due to overworking, my fans and assistant will still praise me


    exaggeratedly for my charm. At home, I often argue with my dad, so my mom often says pleasant


    words to appease me. Even the woman I used to love only says pretty but empty words. What’s the


    use of all that? None of it is true. I despise those pretentious things. You speak the truth, making me


    feel like I’m not living in a fake world.”Winnie frowned as words eluded her. He seems to be in a sorry


    state, but…“I’m sorry, Nate, but I’m not interested in what’s going on in your mind. Don’t you have


    something to say to me? What is it?”A bitter smile spread across Nate’s face as he spoke. “Seems like


    you still haven’t forgiven me, but I believe I’m not far from getting your forgiveness since you came to


    visit me. It’s not convenient for us to speak here. Can youe to my ward?”“Okay. Lead the


    way.”Winnie followed Nate’s lead, and soon, they reached his ward. After closing the door, Nate cut


    straight to the point. “You’ve heard what the doctor said. There’s something wrong with my heart. Can I


    ask you for a favor?”“Do you want me to give you my heart?” Winnie asked, frowning.Shock inundated


    Nate as he eximed, “What? Why would you think so? Am I that evil to you?”Throwing Nate a nce,


    Winnie replied after a moment, “Yes. I usually think the worst of people who have offended me in the


    past.”Nate smiled sheepishly and uttered, “Looks like one shouldn’t do bad things, or one will forever


    bebeled a bad person. Anyway, I want to make up for what I’ve done.”“I know. Get straight to the


    point. What favor do you want me to do?”Nate stared straight at Winnie and said, “It’s not something


    difficult. I just need you to keep my condition a secret from Xavier. I’m afraid that once if he finds out


    about it, my mom will also know.”“Oh. So you’re thinking of giving up instead of undergoing treatment?


    You n to just wait for your doom?”Nate was both amused and rendered speechless by her words.


    Only after a few seconds did he exin, “No, I don’t want to die yet. I just don’t want my mom to know.


    I’ll undergo treatment myself.”Winnie chuckled and replied, “All right then. I’ll agree to your request.


    Actually, I’m not that gossipy as to tell Xavier your affairs. Since you shielded me from that stab today,


    we’re even. You still remember that I once saved you, right?”“Yes, of course.” Touching the tiny round


    scar on his neck, Nate continued, “You operated on me and removed the wasp from my windpipe. I


    won’t forget that.”“You can forget that now since we’re even.”“All right.”Seeing that Winnie was about to


    leave, Nate couldn’t help stopping her. “I don’t know who I can speak to, so can you hear me out? You


    can pretend I’ve never said anything after I’m done!”Initially, Winnie was nning to leave, but she was


    suddenly interested in what he was about to say when she heard his tearful tone.Turning back, she


    stared at him and asked, “Will I be happy listening to it?”Nate’s lips curled up into a self-deprecating


    smile. “Since you hate me so much, you will be ecstatic to hear what I have to say.”“Well, I’m all


    ears.”Nate hummed in response before recalling that terrible memory. “Actually, my heart was fine a


    few months ago. There’s something wrong with it now because after Harold captured me in


    Manchernius, he electrocuted me. I thought I was going to die as I felt my heart stop, but I don’t know


    how I managed to survive. After that, my heart would often ache. I really regret everything! I shouldn’t


    have believed Yulissa and gone to Manchernius! I know telling you all this might make me look like a


    fool, but I really regret everything. To be honest, I was really scared when I realized there was


    something wrong with my heart after I got electrocuted, but I didn’t want to tell anyone, as everything


    happened because of my own foolishness. I deserved it. This is karma. But sometimes, I feel that it’s


    unfair. I was only too trusting of that woman. I was only… Sorry, I lostposure. You can forget


    everything that I said.”Winnie didn’t say anything in response, for there was no way she wouldfort


    Nate.After a few seconds of silence, she turned and exited the ward.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
