Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 186

“Are you doing this again?”

With that, Winnie reached out to tug on Xavier’s arm.

As he was hugging Rachel in his arms too tightly, she was finding it difficult to breathe.

“If you keep doing this, she’s going to suffocate,” Winnie said.

The same situation happened the last time we sent him to the hospital. When he awoke, he mistook Christopher for me. What should I say today? Should I be grateful that he didn’t hug Old Mr. Xander? It feels like we are going back to point zero!

Rachel had started to struggle. Since Winnie was unable to budge Xavier’s arm, she proceeded to pinch him, saying, “Hurry up and let go of her! She’s going to suffocate soon because of you. I’m the real Winnie!”

However, it made him angry.

He looked up and directed a sharp gaze at Winnie. “What are you doing? Get lost.”

His growl frightened Rachel.

Thus, she started to sob. “You’re too frightening. I’m scared.”

Her tone was similar to that of Winnie’s when the latter pretended to be mentally challenged. Xavier’s heart softened the second he heard her words.

He quickly withdrew his penetrating gaze from Winnie. Then, he started to comfort Rachel in the softest tone he could manage.

While cooing at the woman in his embrace, he caressed her head non-stop.

Watching the scene before her, Winnie was caught between laughter and tears.

She was unable to do anything to Xavier. Therefore, she could only coax Rachel.

“Rach, why don’t you get out? Otherwise, you’ll be very uncomfortable. Talk to him nicely so that he can release you.”

The only person that Rachel knew in the room was Winnie.

Hence, she was willing to listen to Winnie’s words and began to plead with Xavier.

When Xavier heard her pleas, he loosened his grip on her.

Winnie wanted to hide Rachel behind her, but Xavier moved faster.

With a stride of his long legs, he swiftly got out of the bed and pulled Rachel to stand behind him.

Afterward, he used the advantage of his tall stature and looked down at Winnie. “What do you want to do to my wife?”

The woman felt her head throbbing with pain. “I will answer this question later on. Before we continue, I have a question to ask you.”

“You want to ask me questions?” Xavier narrowed his eyes and continued, “Who are you to do that?”

Winnie knew that he would not believe it even if she were to tell him that she was his wife.

Therefore, she paused for a while before she made up an excuse on the spot. “I’m your doctor. My name is Winnie Garland.”

Xavier’s frown grew deeper. He tilted his head to look at Rachel, who was behind him, then turned to glance at Winnie.

“You have the same name as my wife?”

Winnie took a deep breath. “Thank goodness. Thank the heavens that you still remember your wife’s name!”

“My time is extremely precious. Please don’t speak nonsense.”

This is great! Winnie secretly rejoiced. Compared to his previous attitude as a domineering CEO, he was able to use the word “please.” It was considered progress.

“Here’s the thing—I’m your doctor. When you were sent to the hospital, someone injected an unknown poison into your body. The poison has affected your central nervous system negatively. So, I want to ask you something. How much do you remember about that day? For example, why did someone inject poison into your body? Who was it? Where were you before the incident? What were you doing? Can you remember any of it?”

Xavier frowned and did not say anything.

Winnie moved her tongue across her molars. “What’s with that response? Why aren’t you saying a word?”

Even when he was acting like a domineering CEO previously, he never had the bad habit of ignoring other people.

He stared at her fixedly and voiced, “This is not the hospital. Why am I here? Don’t you think you need to explain that to me first?”

“Great! This is just great!” She realized that he was exuding an overbearing aura just like before.

Then, she continued, “I will call Josiah now and ask him to come here. He can explain everything to you in person. Are you satisfied with this answer?”

“Do you know Josiah?”
