Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Xavier frowned. “If that’s true, then we have really underestimated Yulissa. She actually set this up and planted the venom in the hands of others.”

“That’s right.” Josiah put down his cup. “As you said, it is truly amazing of Yulissa to see so far ahead.”

As Josiah spoke, he noticed Winnie was lost in thought from the corner of his eye.

He lifted his hand and waved it in front of Winnie’s face.

“Are you okay, Ms. Garland? Are you with us?”

Josiah’s waving of his hand in front of Winnie brought her back to her senses. “What did you say?”

“I was asking you what your opinion is concerning all the goings-on.”

Winnie frowned hard. “I was wondering about the truth about these incidents.”

“What’s the matter?” Josiah asked Winnie. Even Xavier cast her a suspicious glance.

Winnie lifted her hands and massaged her temples, trying to recall some details of what had happened.

“Yulissa’s death. I am now beginning to feel that there is something odd about her death. I remember that Xavier was sent to your hospital that night, and I went to the police station for the recording of my statement. I was at the scene then and I had checked to confirm that Yulissa’s heart had stopped beating. Her breathing, too, had ceased. It was because of that, coupled with Xavier’s sudden cognitive impairment, I stopped paying attention to Yulissa. Consequently, I was not aware of who took her body away or what happened to it.”

Josiah frowned. “It’s normal. After all, you’re not her relative, so there was no need for you to worry about what happened to her after that. Besides, the police have already confirmed her death, so how could there be a problem? Ms. Garland, this is not like you. What you are saying now is too vague.”

“No,” Winnie said. “Actually, this was not a small case, but no information was leaked afterward, not even a little bit. This makes it unusual.”

Feeling a little distressed, Xavier held Winnie’s hand and said, “Winnie, Yulissa’s death is tightly linked to me, and my condition was not good at that time. So Grandpa blocked the news completely. Otherwise, it would have a negative impact on me and the Fairchild family. Don’t worry about this matter anymore. You have worked so hard to learn traditional medicine and acupuncture for my sake. Leave the rest to me and Josiah. I don’t want to see you so worn out because of me.”

“So you don’t believe me? You think it’s just my imagination?” Winnie glanced at them, then closed her eyes, trying to recall the details of that night. “Yes, my intuition at this moment is correct. I must have overlooked some details at that time. Christopher told me that Yulissa was dead. Yes, it was Christopher.”

When she recalled this detail, she abruptly opened her eyes.

Xavier remained perfectly still as he looked at her. “What is it?”

“The problem lies in this detail that I can recall,” Winnie said firmly. “Yulissa had given Christopher valuable information about drugs. At that time, I thought she was dead, and Christopher said so as well. So I expressed regret for the progress of his work because Yulissa was a very important link. With her death, the link will lead to a dead end. However, at that time, he reacted very calmly to her death as if it had no effect on his case. How could her death not affect his case?”

“So you suspect that Yulissa is still alive, and the police helped her to fake her death?” Xavier spoke out what was on Winnie’s mind.

“Yes!”

“Why would they do that?” For a moment, Josiah was unable to follow their conversation.

“The police need informants,” Winnie said. “This type of informant who does not exist is even better.”

“Oh! That’s right.” Josiah nodded. “I can understand it when you explain it this way. However, you must know that none of this can be proven, and it’s all your speculation.”

“I know!” Winnie took out her phone. “If you have any questions, just ask them, and then verify them directly. As for the truth, you will know after verification.”

As she spoke, she had already dialed Christopher’s number.

Xavier and Josiah noticed what she was doing, and they both breathed quietly in order to let her make the call without any unnecessary noises in the background.
