When Winnie heard Xavier ask her what she was doing, she shrank back immediately, looking terrified.

“W-Winnie wasn’t playing in your car, Mr. Xavier. Winnie didn’t drop anything in your car,” she stammered, giving herself away with her denial.

Mr. Xavier?

Xavier thought he had misheard her, and an unfathomable emotion suddenly welled within his heart. “What did you just call me?”

I can’t believe Dumbo is now addressing me as Mr. Xavier instead! That sounds like we don’t know each other well! I can’t accept that at all. Even calling me an idiot or stupid like she did before would be better than this!

He could not help walking forward and asking, “Winnie, who taught you to call me that?”

With every small step he took toward her, she took a big step backward.

It was as though if she did not move away, she would get devoured by the person before her.

Has she really become that scared of me now? Is it because of how I acted the other day? But I didn’t mean to scare her at all.

“Winnie…”

Just as he started speaking, the driver, who had not gone too far away, jogged over.

He stepped forward and apologized at once. “I’m sorry, Mr. Xavier. Mrs. Fairchild came over with her toys earlier and said she wanted to play inside the car. That’s why I let her in. She’s afraid of strangers, so I stepped away. I haven’t caused you any trouble, have I?”

Everyone at the mansion knows that Mr. Xavier brought his first love back with him. He even spoke harshly to Mrs. Fairchild the other day, saying he loathed that she was a dumbass and told her never to appear before his eyes again.

Fearful that his soft-heartedness in allowing Winnie into the car would anger Xavier, the driver quickly apologized.
