Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Oh my, Yolanda! Why are you doing this? Who is the mastermind behind all these?

Winnie received a call just as she got engrossed in her thoughts.

It was a call from an unknown number.

After a moment of hesitation, Winnie answered the call.

“Hello? Who’s this?” she asked.

Her tone sounded a little frigid as she wasn’t in a good mood.

To her surprise, the woman on the other end of the line sounded even colder.

“It’s me, Winnie.”

Winnie could recognize the owner of that familiar voice right away. Thus, she frowned and asked, “Yolanda? What’s the matter?”

I’ve just asked someone to stalk her, and now I’ve received a call from her. Is this a coincidence? Or does she have supernatural instincts?

“Well, someone is looking for you, but it’s not me,” Yolanda replied reluctantly. “It’s my grandpa! Talk to him yourself.”

“Okay. Hand the phone to him.”

Soon, Winnie spoke to Sebastian over the phone.

It turned out that the old man contacted Winnie for the sole reason of asking about Xavier’s condition.

As soon as he found out that Xavier’s condition did not improve this morning, Sebastian proposed to Winnie to bring Xavier over to him again.

Winnie did not rush to agree because Josiah had yet to finish his discussion with Xavier.

However, no matter what the outcome of their discussion was that day, Winnie still had plans to visit Sebastian and learn medical skills from him.

After all, she was not someone who lacked perseverance.

Winnie put her phone away after Sebastian ended the call.

Then, she rolled down her car window and looked in Xavier’s direction.

At that moment, Josiah had already started talking to Xavier.

He spoke eagerly with such eloquence.

However, Xavier was devoid of expression. He would look at Rachel, who was beside him from time to time.

Rachel had absolutely no idea what was going on. She focused on savoring the food before her and would smile in satisfaction, appearing joyful and carefree.

Winnie was reminded of her past self when she looked at Rachel.

The corner of her lips curled up instinctively. Then, she took the opportunity to snap a picture of Rachel while the latter was smiling.

After that, she sent the picture to Michael along with a voice message.

She said, “Rach is safe now. Don’t worry. We’ll make sure to send her home later.”

Winnie replied to a few messages and some work-related emails after she messaged Michael.

One of the emails was about a tricky matter and took up quite some time.

After Winnie replied to all her emails, she noticed Josiah was still talking to Xavier.

Rendered speechless by Josiah’s efficiency, Winnie sent the man a message that read: Hurry up. I have something else to do. I’m in a rush.

Josiah, who was talking with Xavier, was stunned when he read Winnie’s text.

What on earth? Is she being serious? How can she say she needs to leave now when her husband is showing concern for another woman?

However, Josiah kept his thoughts to himself and immediately sent the conclusion of their discussion to Winnie in the form of text.

He texted: I’m done talking to him. We’ve agreed to send Rachel to your granny. She will stay at Aqua Moana. Xavier has a unit above you, so he’s not too worried. Why don’t you tell Mr. Zimmerman to let Rachel stay at your place for a few days?

She replied: All right! That’s not a problem. I’ll give my granny a call now to tell her about this. But I’m not too sure about letting Xavier send Rachel there all by himself.

Josiah replied: We can go with him.
