Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

When she stopped to look at her phone, the shadow dodged to the side and hid in a dark corner, watching her every move.

The wind was loud, so Winnie was oblivious to the person’s presence.

She continued to walk while sending a voice message to Xavier.

“I’ve already talked to Granny, and I’ll be there soon. Are you done taking a bath?”

In no time, Xavier replied with another voice message.

Just as Winnie put the phone to her ear to listen to the message, a dark figure leaped in front of her and shouted, “Hey!”

The yell sounded especially jarring in the dark yard. Though Winnie managed to suppress her scream, she jolted and almost threw her phone away.

While she stood in place and took deep breaths to get ahold of herself, the figure walked out from the dark spot and showed himself before her.

Under the light, Nate’s handsome face looked pale. “You’re much calmer than I thought, Winnie! I’m surprised this didn’t scare you.”

Winnie inhaled deeply. After seeing that it was Nate, she calmed down.

Although her heart rate returned to normal, she felt extremely pissed off.

She frowned and narrowed her eyes, questioning, “Nate, do you know what you’ve just done?”

Nate leaned against a pillar in the courtyard and crossed his arms. “Of course I do. I saw you hanging around in the courtyard all alone at such a late hour, so I couldn’t resist giving you a surprise,” he answered casually.

“Surprise, huh?” Winnie clenched her fingers so tight Nate could hear her knuckles cracking. “I’ll make you experience the surprise of a lifetime!”

Ever since she returned to Chanaea, she hadn’t gotten a chance to practice with the people from the club. Now, the insolent Nate standing before her was the perfect punching bag.

She first gave him a punch to the stomach before sweeping his leg and sending him crashing to the floor.

Although her movements were smooth, the strength she used was nothing compared to those burly men’s.

However, Nate was too weak. He had some muscles, but they were only there for the visual enjoyment of his female fans.

Therefore, he couldn’t defend himself at all when Winnie attacked.

Staring at Nate on the ground, Winnie curled her lips into a mocking smile.

“You’re much weaker than I thought, Nate! I’m surprised at how easy it is to beat you,” she teased, echoing Nate’s words earlier.

Nate curled into a ball on the floor, covering his stomach with his hands. “Winnie, you sly woman! How dare you sneak an attack on me!”

Winnie couldn’t help but laugh. “Sneak attack? If this is considered a sneak attack, then I suggest you donate your eyes. It seems they are of no use to you.”

She continued, “Nate Fraser, you better stop messing around. If it weren’t for the fact that you’re going to Alendor, you’d be a cripple now. I believe there is something you need to know. Xavier and Old Mr. Fairchild keep their hands off you because of your families’ close ties and cooperation throughout the generations. However, I don’t have that sort of relationship with the Fraser family. Even if I beat you half to death or send you to rot in jail, I’m afraid of nothing. Do you understand? If you can’t remember this, it’s fine. I can record it and send it to you. I recommend you listen to it at least thrice before bedtime, all right?”
