Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 88

Winnie returned to Xavier’s place on the thirty-second floor and promptly fell asleep.

The following morning, she was woken up by clanking sounds in the kitchen. It was past ten o’clock in the morning when she roused.

Her guard went up immediately. It could be Molly, or Xavier could have traveled the entire night and arrived at his house this morning.

However, she walked out of the bedroom to realize that it was her grandmother, Jacinta, bustling around the kitchen.

Delight and surprise bubbled up within her. “Granny, when did you arrive? I didn’t hear a thing!” she blurted out in joy.

Seeing her, Jacinta immediately turned down the fire on the stove and shot her edgy looks.

Winnie looked in the direction Jacinta was hinting and realized Louis was here, too. The man was seated in a corner in the living room. That was why she did not spot him earlier.

Oh, Granny is afraid that Louis will realize I’m putting up an act because I’m not pretending to be dumb.

“It’s fine, Granny,” Winnie assured her. “Go back to the kitchen. I’ll talk to Mr. Tanser.”

Jacinta gaped in disbelief. “He knows?”

Winnie gave her a firm nod.

“All right, go on then. Breakfast is almost ready. You can look forward to it.”

“Sure,” Winnie replied obediently. She then headed to Louis’ spot in the living room.

Sitting down across from Louis, she did not bother with her act. “Mr. Tanser, I believe Xavier told you I need your help to investigate a courier company under Fairchild Corporation, right?”

Louis was astounded to learn that Winnie was actually acting and that her acting was pretty convincing.

Forcing himself to stay calm, he replied, “Yes, Mrs. Fairchild. I’ve received his order.”
