Silly Bride Chapter 344
Chapter 344
Despite hearing Greta loud and clear, Winnie refused to believe it.“Are you telling the truth? Is
Christopher really still alive?”“Yes!” Greta nodded with conviction. “There’s no way I would joke about
something like this. Due to the secrecy of our identities, the news still can’t be revealed to the public.
But today, I have been given permission to exin the matter to you.”“That’s good.” Just the thought of
Christopher being alive caused Winnie’s eyes to redden.Throwing Xavier a nce by reflex, she
remarked emotionally, “He’s still alive, Xavier. He isn’t dead!”“Mmm-hmm.” Xavier tightened his grip on
her hand. “This is certainly good news.”Despite his indifferent expression, the revtion significantly
alleviated the guilt he carried over murdering Christopher.He inquired further, “How badly is he hurt?
Can we visit him?”“About that…” Greta broke into an awkward smile. “Not at the moment. Firstly, his
condition is ssified. Secondly, he still needs to rest. Even though he didn’t lose his life falling from
the second floor, his brain and spine were affected by the impact. All this while, he has been
recuperating in bed and has only returned to the country recently. Therefore, it will still be a while
before you’re allowed to visit him.”“In that case, how is his recovery?” Winnie asked anxiously as
injuries to the brain and spine were debilitating.Greta pursed her lips. “You don’t have to worry too
much about that. Captain Bet not only has a strong constitution but also a resilient will. Although
his legs are still not coordinated, he’s working hard on the program the doctor drafted to treat him.
Thus, I believe he will make a full recovery soon.”“I’m d to hear that!” Suddenly, Winnie felt
responsible for what had happened. “Back then, I shouldn’t have left him behind. If it wasn’t for you, he
wouldn’t have survived.”“There’s no need to feel guilty,” Gretaforted her. “If you had tried to take
him with you at the time, you might have ended up suffering from Harold’s schemes. Besides, I was at
the scene back then. It seems destiny has decided Captain Bet’s time hasn’te yet.”“Indeed.”
Winnie broke into a smile. “The Grim Reaper isn’t ready to collect yet. Greta, will you be seeing him
again? Can you pass him a message for me?”“What is it?”“Please convey my apologies and tell him
that we’re happy to learn he’s alive and well.”“Sure, no problem.”“One more thing,” Winnie suddenly
recalled something. “What about his parents? We met them two days ago and could see that both of
them were devastated.”“I’m sure they must feel awful, but the organization has made ns to inform
them about the good news, so don’t worry about it. Actually, he knows that I’ming to see both of
you and has asked me to pass a message and an item.”“What is it?”Greta gave Xavier a look before
turning her attention back to Winnie. “Captain Bet said that you asked him a question after he fell
off the building. However, he lost consciousness before he could finish his reply. Worried that his
iplete answer would give you the wrong idea, he said that when you asked him who pushed him
down, he replied with the name Xavier. Nheless, he didn’t mean that Xavier was the culprit.
Instead, he just wanted to warn you that Xavier was in danger.”“Warn me?” Knitting her brows, Winnie
turned toward Xavier subconsciously.Xavier, too, was curious. “Was I in danger then? Didn’t I push him
off the building by mistake?”The frowning Greta shook her head. “I’m afraid not.” While speaking, she
took out a ring and ced it in Winnie’s hand.“Captain Bet asked me to hand this to you. He said
that this is the listening device you gave him, and he was wearing it during the incident. Hence, it
contains a recording of everything that happened back then.”“Yes!” Staring at the ring, Winnie
exined, “Xavier gave it to me first before I passed it to Christopher. Do you have any yback
equipment here?”“I do,” Greta answered at once, “but we disabled the ring the moment it came into our
possession, as it is a listening device after all. There’s no way we can allow it to continue to function.
That said, I swear, upon my honor, that we have not tampered with its contents, on top of the fact that it
isn’t easy to do so in the first ce.”Winnie nodded. “I trust you guys.”“All right then. I’ll y it back
now. You had better prepare yourselves.”Once Greta turned on the equipment, voices could be heard
from the recording.Recognizing when the dialogue urred, Xavier furrowed his brows. “Can you fast-
forward it? This isn’t from the day of the incident.”“Sure, please wait a moment.” Upon Xavier’s request,
Greta fast-forwarded the recording to the day they were on the rooftop.Soon, the incident was relived
through the voices in the recording.They heard how Yulissa injected Xavier with the drug, how she
provoked him, and what Xavier said to rebut her.Nevertheless, Xavier’s voice became increasingly
muffled.Thereafter, Yulissa continued with her provocations, while Christopher was heard persuading
Xavier not to trust Yulissa and exining that there was nothing going on between him and
Winnie.Throughout the entire exchange, Jacinta didn’t say a word until Xavier’s illness acted up,Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
causing him to lose control and get into a fight with Christopher.Amidst the sound of chaotic footsteps,
the two of them reached the edge of the rooftop.However, in the middle of their struggle, Jacinta’s voice
suddenly rang out.“Die, Xavier!”Subsequently, she could be heard dashing toward them, after which
Christopher yelled, “Be careful, Xavier!”From the sounds of it, it seemed he had given Xavier a push
back into the rooftop’s confines, but he—due to inertia—fell off instead.After that, Jacinta screamed,
“Christopher!”She then bellowed, “Xavier, why don’t you just die? Captain Bet has fallen off the
rooftop for the sake of saving you! How many more do you want to kill before you’re satisfied? Just die
already!”She sounded as if she was cursing at Xavier while pushing him to the edge of the
rooftop.Unexpectedly, Yulissa stopped her. “You old hag, I never knew you were so cruel! Does Winnie
know what you have done? Ha, you not only failed to kill Xavier but caused the death of a policeman.
Winnie is about to arrive. Do you n on letting her see all these? Even though I don’t know why you
want Xavier dead, I think you’re letting him off too easily by pushing him off the building when he’s not
in his right mind. There’s no way I’m going to let him die such an easy death!”Their conversation was
quickly followed by the sound of Winnie and Josiahing upstairs.Having heard the exchange,
Winnie was dumbfounded.From the chaos in the background and everyone’s unique voice, it was
evident to her that the recording hadn’t been tampered with by Greta and her organization.If that’s the
case, the contents of the listening device must be true. Everything I heard is real! It turns out that
Xavier didn’t push Christopher off the building. Granny was behind everything that happened, and that
is the irrefutable truth! Granny was the one whomitted all those deeds and subsequently lied to
everyone!
