Silly Bride Chapter 349


    Chapter 349


    “Okay!” Winnie replied as she held his face and gave him a kiss on the lips. “Show me around this


    secret hideout of yours!”Xavier let out a chuckle. “There’s nothing much to see, really. It’s just a very


    peaceful spot.”“Nonsense! This beach is the best ce to view the sunrise! Xavier spent a lot of money


    buying this! All of Fairchild Corporation thought he was going to develop it into a resort or something,


    but he actually purchased it for his own personal use! He literally spent hundreds of millions just so he


    could sit here and enjoy the sea breeze! Can you imagine that?” Josiah said.Xavier rolled his eyes at


    him in response. “Why are you worried about how I spend my money? I just want a quiet ce where I


    can rx.”“Yeah, I know. It really is a nice ce, so I suppose it was worth the money. Honestly, I do


    support your decision. Can you imagine what would happen to this beach if the Fraser family got their


    hands on it? I bet they’d ruin it by building a beach resort here or something! We need to give Mother


    Nature a break every now and then.”Xavier frowned. “Yeah, sure, go ahead and steal all the good lines


    from me.”Winnie let out a giggle. “Now, now… Are we here to argue or rx and unwind?”She then got


    out of the car, stretched her body, and took in the fresh air as she continued, “It’s been so long since


    I’ve been to a beach. Come on, let’s go!”Xavier walked up to her and held her hand. “We’ll find a less


    windy spot to sit down. Here, hold the bag. I’ll switch the shlight on.”“Who needs shlights when I’ve


    got these?” Josiah called out to them from behind.Winnie turned around and saw him holding two


    lamps which looked like ss bottles with countless fireflies in them.Themps exuded aforting


    glow that added some warmth to the cold windy night.“Where did you get those? Do you have some


    sort of storage ring on you?” she eximed in surprise.“Oh, it’s not mine. I found it in Xavier’s car, so


    you should ask him instead.”Xavier shook his head. “I didn’t prepare that. It was probably the driver or


    Mary who put them there.”“Who cares who prepared them? Anyway, would you like to hold one? It


    looks kind of pretty,” Josiah asked while handing one of them over to Winnie.“Sure!” Winnie nced at


    the car that still had its high beams on as she said, “We’ll be able to go a lot farther with these


    lamps.”The three of them then walked along the beach, leaving their footprints in the sand behind


    them.After a bit of walking, Winnie sat down at a spot where they could easily touch the sea with their


    feet.Xavier sat down in the middle and handed them both a can of beer before helping himself to


    one.“Whenever I’m in a bad mood, I’de here to enjoy the sea breeze, listen to the waves, and


    watch the sunrise. My mood would usually improve by the time the new day begins,” he said while


    staring into the distance.Winnie rested her head against Xavier’s shoulder as shemented, “The


    sound of the waves is indeed rxing.”A few minutester, she started talking about what had


    happened that day. “There really is no telling what will happen next in life. Mason was just fine earlier in


    the morning, but he’s now dead and lying in a mortuary. I thought things were going well with Granny,


    only to have reality spit right in my face. These past few days have been filled with nothing but lies,


    depression, betrayal, and unpleasant surprises. Everything has been catching us off guardtely. I


    really can’t stand any more surprises like these. Back then, I liked keeping my identity hidden for the


    safety of those around me. Right now, I’m really worried about you guys. Just take Mason, for example.


    He and Harold weren’t enemies before, but Harold targeted him because he was protecting me. This is


    Harold’s way of provoking and threatening me. If he were toe after you two, I—”Xavier cut her off,


    “We’ll be fine, all of us. Not only will we be all right, but we also wouldn’t betray you or lie to you.”“Yeah!


    I won’t blindly trust any messages that I receive in the future, so you two had better stop texting me. I’ll


    only trust a voice message or video calls. May these problems be gone from our lives for good!” Josiah


    added and held his can up.The three of them then clinked cans and chugged their drinks down.“You’re


    going to pay for what you did, Harold!” Josiah yelled at the top of his lungs.Turning toward Winnie, he


    suggested, “You should try screaming too. It’ll make you feel a lot better. We’re in an open area far


    away from the residences, so you don’t have to worry about disturbing anyone.”Winnie nodded and


    shouted in the direction of the sea as well, “You’ll pay for this, Harold!”Sure enough, screaming her


    heart out did help her feel a lot better. It felt as though her negative emotions were all carried away by


    the sea.Instead of screaming like they did, Xavier simply pulled Winnie into his arms and hugged her


    tightly.Watching how the two depended on each other forfort, Josiah shed them an envious


    smile as he said, “When you two have kids, you better take me as their godfather!”“I think you should


    go ahead and do that yourself. Marry a woman you love and have us be the godparents of your


    children,” Winnie replied.“Why do I have to be the first one? I don’t even have a girlfriend!”Xavier


    frowned. “Have you forgotten about my condition? We aren’t nning on having kids for the time being,


    so you might actually have children before us.”“Wait a minute, why are you urging me to get married


    instead? You know what? I don’t like where this topic is going. Let’s talk about something else instead.


    Hmm… Ms. Gand, how about I tell you some embarrassing stories from Xavier’s childhood


    instead?”“What? The great Mr. Fairchild has embarrassing stories?” Winnie eximed in surprise.“Of


    course he does!”Just like that, the three of them continued chatting the night away. It wasn’t until high


    tide that they retreated back to the car.Xavier woke Winnie and Josiah up at about five in the


    morning.The sun was slowly rising from the horizon, lighting up the darkness little by little as it bathed


    the ce in a gentle, warm glow.Winnie shed them both a bright smile. “Thanks, you two! I feel so


    much better now!”They were on their way back when Winnie received a call from Lisanne offering to


    treat her to a meal.After giving it some thought, Winnie declined her offer.“But why? You’re going on a


    vacation with Xavier soon, aren’t you? If you won’t have a meal with me before you go, who knows


    when I’ll get to do so again?” Lisanne protested.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.
