After saying that, Xavier shifted his glance away from the reporters.

He put his arm around Winnie’s shoulders and held her tightly.

While all the cameras were pointed at them, they walked a full circle toward Xavier’s VVIP elevator.

In the elevator, Josiah questioned, “Did you purposely stop on the first floor to show off Dumbo to those reporters? You already knew the reporters are there, right?”

Furrowing his brows, Xavier replied, “No. You’re wrong.”

“Oh?”

Hearing Xavier denying it, Josiah and Winnie looked at Xavier with puzzled looks.

If it’s not because of that, then what? Their curiosity was piqued.

Xavier did not like how similar Josiah and Winnie’s reactions were, and he got jealous.

With that, he tightened his arm around Winnie’s waist.

“I went to show off Mrs. Fairchild,” he said to Josiah with tightly knitted brows.

He specifically emphasized on the words “Mrs. Fairchild.”

Then, Xavier continued, “Josiah, even though you’re my best friend, I will not allow you to call my wife ‘Dumbo.’ That is my special nickname for her. It’s a pet name that we use when we get intimate. You shouldn’t chime in on our affairs.”

At his words, Winnie had the urge to spew blood.

The first part of what Xavier said sounded all right. Introducing one’s significant other in public was a way to show how much they respected and cared for their beloved.

However, when he suddenly talked about pet names and being intimate in such a serious tone, she did not know how to react.
