The fragrance wafting off Winnie was too sweet and enticing that Xavier was entirely hooked.

“Why don’t we… push the press conference back?” he coaxed in a deep voice.

Winnie was promptly dumbfounded. Bending her knee, she slammed it into the man’s stomach. Although she didn’t put much strength into it, she definitely wasn’t playing around either.

“You must have gone mad! A little poison turned you into a man who thinks with his lower body!”

The mere thought of it had her seeing red. If he were to behave thus in the past, she would have long since kicked him away.

But presently, after having experienced so much together, she was suddenly a tad reluctant to do so. After all, hurting the man brought her distress.

Even when she kicked him just now, she barely put any strength into it.

Xavier evidently never expected her to treat him in such a manner. Immediately, the blazing fire in his eyes died out by half.

At the same time, a shudder ran through him. If her knee had hit me a little lower…

“Do you know what you’re doing, Dumbo? Hmm?” Xavier hissed through gritted teeth.

“What? Lighting your fire? Do you want to say that I’m responsible for extinguishing the fire I lit?” Winnie huffed.

“D*mn it! Do you know you almost maimed your husband?” Xavier frowned, appearing savage and menacing. However, he didn’t do anything further.

Winnie shook her head defiantly. “Nope. I only know that I’ll be maiming you for real if you dare mess up the press conference.”

At her provocation, Xavier wore an expression of disbelief. “Dumbo! Don’t you think you’re being too arrogant?”
