Sebastian immediately swallowed his words when he heard Xavier’s voice.

“Now that he’s awake, you two should have a good talk.” Sebastian rose to his feet and picked up the small box on the coffee table. “I’ll take away Yolanda’s hypnotic incense first.”

Winnie had no objections because it originally belonged to Yolanda.

Nonetheless, there were some things that needed to be said right away, so she called out to Sebastian.

“Master, please wait a moment. I have something to tell you.”

Sebastian sighed and turned around, saying coldly, “Nini, you should change the way you address me.”

Winnie paused for a moment before deciding to change the way she addressed him. “Understood, Old Mr. Xander.”

The way she changed from addressing him as Master to Old Mr. Xander indicated a change in their level of closeness.

“Good. You may now tell me what you wanted to tell me,” Sebastian replied, sighing once more.

Winnie frowned and said earnestly, “I hereby promise you that I will no longer use deception to stalk Ms. Xander. But if she continues to do something against Xavier or me in the future, I will not sit back and do nothing.”

Sebastian nodded. “I understand. If that day does come, she’s only bringing trouble to herself. Well, I suppose that’s all for today. It looks like your husband is about to wake up, so I’ll be on my way now.”

Soon after, Winnie and Xavier were the only two people left in the living room.

Without waking up, Xavier continued to call Winnie’s name.

She quickly unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, calling out his name several times as she did so.

When she called his name for the third time, Xavier opened his eyes.

“Winnie!”

“I’m here!” Winnie immediately took Xavier’s hand in her own.

Xavier gave Winnie a long look before frowning.

“What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?” Winnie inquired, concerned that he was in poor health.

Before pushing her hand away, Xavier gave her a faint smile. “Dr. Garland, are you taking advantage of me? I recall telling you that I’m a married man.”

Winnie was rendered speechless when she heard that. She rolled her eyes and resisted the urge to smack him on the head.

Xavier, amused, turned to Winnie and said, “What? Did I say something wrong? Was I correct? That’s why you’re irritated.”

Xavier felt vindicated after recalling how she used to tease him while she was playing dumb in the past.

In fact, he had struggled in the past because of her.

However, it was the inverse at that time. He could finally revel in the pleasure of teasing her.

Winnie wished she could crack his head open and reorganize his nerves all over again at that moment.

Despite having that thought, she was a strong-willed individual. She could hold back for as long as she wanted.

Nonetheless, it was true that she did not wish to speak with him at that moment. After all, she was at someone else’s house, not her own.

Winnie eventually ignored Xavier and took out her phone, starting to send messages.

When Xavier realized she would rather play with her phone than talk to him, he simply stood up.

Because he was tall, the moment he stood behind Winnie and looked down at the screen of her phone, he could see her entire phone interface and discovered that she was texting Josiah.

She was inquiring of Josiah about Yolanda.

Shortly afterward, Josiah replied: I managed to find her, but she told me to get lost. Of course I want to, but I can’t just do it and offend Old Mr. Xander, right?
