After leaving the Steward Mansion, Channing went to Winnie.

 

He stood at the door and rang the doorbell for a long time. Finally, Fiona, the assistant of Winnie, opened the door.

 

She only opened the door a little and poked her head out. "Are you looking for Winnie? She is not feeling very well and has fallen asleep..."

 

Channing said, "I just want to see her."

 

But Fiona still pressed her feet against the door and didn't let him in. She seemed to be slightly hesitant, yet didn't know how to refuse.

 

After they stood at the door for a while, Fiona said hesitantly, "Why don't you go back first? Winnie doesn't want to see you..."

 

Channing pursed his thin lips and stood there in silence.

 

After a short while, he said, "I'll wait here for her until she wants to see me."

 

After that, Channing turned around and stood beside the wall.

 

Fiona closed the door and looked at the person standing not far away. "Winnie, he won't leave..."

 

Winnie leaned against the wall with a pale face. She replied softly, "I know."

 

"How about meeting him?"

 

Winnie didn't respond to that but said, "You can go back now. I'll be fine. Thank you for the past two days."

 

The assistant was still worried about her, but when she thought about that Channing was outside, she grabbed her bag and said, "Then I'll be back tomorrow morning. Remember to take your medicine. Don't let your wound get inflamed."

 

"I see."

 

After the assistant left, Winnie walked to the door and stood there. Through the screen, she quietly watched Channing standing outside.
