What the hell? So this is what goes through Xavier’s mind? This is why he kept Yulissa by his side but refused to interact with her? Is this also why he has been looking for “Dumbo?” So all those times when I was pretending to be stupid as well as intentionally kissed, hugged, and teased him, he was wondering if he was a pervert when I got a reaction out of him? Dang. Well, I can’t say his current performance didn’t change how I look at how he acted in the past. This actually reignited my interest in him. After all, he is pretty interesting while acting like this. I wanted something sexual out of our relationship, yet he truly wanted love from me. Not only that, he earnestly desired my love when I was acting like an idiot! I have to say, this is kind of funny, but it also makes me feel a little guilty. He said he was afraid he would lose control and hurt me. Yet, in reality, every time he lost control, it was because I was intentionally making it happen. Most of the time, I wanted him to lose control. Sometimes, I wished he would go further, but he ended up being the one holding himself back. At that moment, Winnie had an impulsive desire to tear away her makeup, walk up to him, and make fun of him.

However, she managed to resist that temptation because her appearance was a little too embarrassing at the moment.

The conversation on the deck continued.

The woman said, “It’s rare that a successful person like you truly loves a mentally disabled woman like your wife. She’s lucky to have married you.”

A brief silence ensued before Xavier spoke again. “If I can find her this time, I promise I’ll make her lucky for the rest of her life.”

Winnie, who was still listening to the conversation, felt a little speechless after that. Is luck something people can give to each other? Still, I’m starting to look forward to what he’ll do.

A little over five in the morning, the sun emerged from the horizon where the sea seemingly touched the sky.

It was then she was woken up by the sunlight and the sounds made by the ship docking.

By the time Winnie finished grooming herself and walked out of the cabin, Xavier and the others had already descended from the ship.

So, she ambled behind them with the lady owner of the boat.

When she was still on the ship, she borrowed a piece of cloth to cover her face. The waves and winds were strong on the sea. Therefore, it was usual for the locals to dress up like that when they went out to sea. As such, her appearance wouldn’t attract any attention.

As they walked, the lady owner of the boat asked, “Are you together with them? I noticed you and the others didn’t talk to each other at all.”

“That’s right,” Winnie replied plainly. “I didn’t know them before. We only got on the same boat because of… reasons.”
