Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 235

Winnie was dumbfounded.

Why is she so stubborn? She’d rather die than leave this place.

Winnie massaged her forehead. She could not bring herself to get mad at a grandmother like that.

After studying Jacinta for some time, she nodded in resignation. “All right, then. Looks like I can’t change your mind today. Rest early. I’m going to get some sleep too. I’m going to pay Rach a visit tomorrow morning.”

Jacinta finally smiled when she heard Winnie’s words. “Now that’s more like it. I wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight if you insisted I go back tomorrow.”

Winnie flashed Jacinta a smile as well. “Lie down now. I’ll turn off the lights.”

Jacinta hummed in response and lay back down.

Winnie watched Jacinta pull the blankets over her before reaching out to press the light switch beside the bed.

After that, she pulled out her phone and swiftly sent a message. Upon receiving a satisfactory reply, she closed her eyes.

The next morning, Winnie was not in the room by the time Jacinta woke up. She even went looking in the washroom, but Winnie was nowhere to be found.

Just as Jacinta was panicking, Winnie suddenly opened the door and entered the room.

Jacinta heaved a sigh of relief and hurried toward Winnie. “Winnie, my darling, where did you go so early in the morning? I thought something happened to you. What am I going to do if you get into trouble here? I don’t even know where I should go to find you.”

Winnie handed Jacinta the plastic bag in her hand with a chuckle. “Well, I’m right in front of you, aren’t I? I just went out to get some breakfast. No matter what, we still need to have breakfast, no?”

Still frowning, Jacinta scolded, “You gave me a scare. You should’ve asked me to go with you. Do you have any idea how worried I was?”

Winnie quickly admitted her mistake. “There, there. Quit worrying already. It’s my bad. I promise I won’t make such a mistake again. I’ll give you a heads-up before going anywhere in the future. How about that? I only went out to buy some things anyway. I know you’re worried about me. And if that’s the case, have you ever thought about it from another point of view? Surely you can understand my worry about you too. So—”

Knowing what Winnie was trying to get at, Jacinta interrupted, “All right, that’s enough. Didn’t we already agree on it last night? Why are you going back on your words after a night’s rest? Anyway, I’ve already decided. I won’t change my mind no matter what you say. I’m going to wash up now. Just leave the breakfast there. I’ll be out in a while.”

Winnie said nothing as she watched her stubborn grandmother leave. She then walked over to the table and put down the breakfast.

It was a simple breakfast with two buns and a cup of soy milk for each person.

Winnie purposely waited for Jacinta to come out of the bathroom to enjoy their breakfast together.

At the table, Jacinta spoke before Winnie even had the chance to open her mouth. “Don’t speak while eating.”

Winnie sighed. “Fine. I won’t bring up that topic, then. What do you think? Is the bun okay?”

“It’s so-so.” Seeing that Winnie was not going to bring up the matter of sending her back, Jacinta added, “The filling is too little, and the crust is too dry and hard. It’s as if it’s been left exposed to the air for one night. I can tell it hasn’t been proofed well just by the looks of it. It’s so hard to swallow.”

“Then maybe you should have it with the soy milk. I’ve tried it already. It’s not bad,” said Winnie.

“Okay. Let me try,” Jacinta responded while bringing the cup of soy milk to her lips.

Eyeing the cup of soy milk in Jacinta’s hand, Winnie asked with a smile, “How is it? It’s good, right?”
