Chapter 24

When Xavier arrived in his car, he couldn‘t see the faces of the two people fighting because the headlights were too bright.

However, he recalled one of them looked like a woman. Additionally, there was a spot on her heel that reflected the headlights. He remembered that clearly because the reflected light hurt his eyes.

The thing reflecting the headlights looked just like the stud on Winnie‘s boots.

Not only that, the woman in his memory was about the same height as Winnie.

A frown formed on Xavier‘s face as he opened the door again. With a suspicious look in his eyes, he stared at Winnie‘s face.

Winnie instantly noticed the way he looked at her had changed. However, she didn‘t know what was giving her away, so she continued to act innocent like before.

“Come and sit with me in the car, Handsome.” As she spoke, she even patted the spot next to her in a dim–witted manner.

Xavier kneeled in front of her, gently held her injured hand, and stared at her. “Tell me, Dumbo. What clothes were you wearing today?”

“Clothes?” She lowered her head and stared at the sweater on her. “It‘s pink, and I have a pretty necklace.”

“I‘m asking about your coat, Winnie.”

Why did he suddenly ask about my coat? Is he getting suspicious? Hmm, he mustve seen it when I was fighting with that guy with a scar earlier. However, he and his goons had all run away earlier. There are no witnesses around anymore. As long as I continue to play dumb, Xavier cant do anything to me. So what if I said I was wearing a black coat? You can grab any random person off the street, and youll see they are wearing black coats. Winnie stayed silent for a moment before answering, “Uhm, let me think… It‘s black. If you don‘t believe me, you can ask Mary. She‘s the one who gave it to me.”

After her sentence concluded, she was going to exit the car to find Mary.

She even intentionally used her injured hand to open the car door and hurt herself. “Ouch! My hand is in so much pain…”

Xavier began to wonder if he was overthinking it as he stared at the clumsy woman in front of him. Still, its just a stud. There are many shoes with a stud. This doesnt mean anything.
