“Of course! I’ve said the wrong thing. I’ll watch myself in the future,” Mary hastily responded when she saw Xavier’s angry look.

She then asked Winnie, “Mrs. Fairchild, would you like to drink something?”

“No, it’s fine. It’s late, so we’re going to rest now.”

After dismissing the housekeepers, Winnie and Xavier went upstairs to the master bedroom on the second floor.

That place used to be their room, and they spent many interesting nights there.

Winnie could not help but feel wistful upon returning to the room after over a month.

The last time she returned to retrieve her laptop in the playroom, she had taken some clothes with her as well. Hence, Winnie could not help but wonder if she had anything to change into after her shower later.

With that thought in her mind, Winnie reached out to open the walk-in closet’s door.

There were still many clothes in the closet. Everything was still where it used to be as if the place had been left untouched the entire time.

At that, Winnie could not help but ask Xavier, “You haven’t told anyone to clean this place up after I left?”

Walking over to hug her from behind, Xavier sharply replied, “What are you talking about? Are you thinking of leaving me? I won’t let you do that!”

“Right,” Winnie muttered, holding the arm around her waist. “Asking you is pointless. You don’t remember all these anyway.”

Xavier had no idea what she was muttering about. He only knitted his brows and insisted, “Dumbo, I don’t care if you understand this or not, but don’t you dare think of leaving me!”

“Fine.” Winnie sighed. It seemed he was not going to change his impression of her any time soon.

“What’s the matter? Is there something you’re not happy about? I can’t believe you’re sighing, Dumbo. You used to be so happy over just a candy.”
