Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 189

Right after Winnie pushed open the door and entered the room, she caught a whiff of bone broth.

At that moment, Jacinta and Rachel were sitting on the couch chatting.

Seeing that Winnie was back, Jacinta immediately turned around.

“You’re home! The casserole and the brisket are not cooked yet. Are you hungry? You have to wait for a while until the meal is ready. You can have some soup first if you are hungry.”

“Granny, I’m not hungry. I can wait.” Winnie walked over and sat across from them.

Glancing at Rachel with a smile, she shifted her gaze to Jacinta and asked, “What’re you guys talking about?”

“What else can we talk about?” Jacinta frowned and continued, “Except for Xavier, I suppose there’s no one who will harm Rach. I’m teaching Rach how to protect herself.”

Jacinta had a prejudice against Xavier and always thought he had bad intentions.

“Now that Xavier mistakes Rach for his wife, it’s a very serious matter. What if he takes advantage of Rach? Aren’t you aware that Rach has just had an abortion? If he takes advantage of Rach and does something bad to her, it will cause serious damage to Rach, both physically and mentally!”

Winnie frowned. In fact, she had thought of the issue that Jacinta mentioned.

She pinched the middle of her brows and replied, “Well, that’s likely, which is why I let Rach live in our house for the time being. That is to prevent them from spending time alone. Actually, he has never hurt me in the past. If Rach objects to it, I suppose he won’t force her.”

“Do you think Rach can compare to you? You were just disguising yourself as a mentally-challenged person in the past. When you were in danger, you could solve the problem on your own. Rach, on the other hand, is seriously mentally-challenged. That’s different. Enough of that! You don’t have to concern yourself with this anymore. Can you check if the food is ready yet? Make sure the brisket is not overcooked.”

Winnie, who failed to join in the conversation, got up and headed toward the kitchen.

As she walked away, she heard Jacinta lecturing Rachel, telling the latter to keep some distance from all men except for her father. The old woman told her that if a man touched her, she had to cry for help. In a worst-case scenario, she could even punch and kick the man to defend herself.

Hearing that, Winnie couldn’t help chuckling.

Well, that’s indeed a good way for Rachel to defend herself from Xavier.

Winnie received a call from Josiah not long after the meal.

“Ms. Garland, how did it go? Have you finished the home-cooked meal prepared by your grandmother?”

Winnie held the dishes in one hand and her phone in the other.
