Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Winnie’s heart jolted, and she fell silent.

I’m planning to leave tonight, but I never expected the real Big Black Bear to appear at this time… Am I simply unlucky? Or is this what it means by searching for something high and low only to stumble upon it by sheer luck? Initially, I planned to return to the country directly since the situation is urgent and put off the mission Wilhelm entrusted me.

At her utter calmness, Leandro couldn’t help frowning. “Why are you smiling? Shouldn’t you be giving me an explanation right now?”

Since you’ve already drawn your conclusion inwardly, why do you still need an explanation from me? Would you believe me if I were to say I’m the real Big Black Bear? And if you really trust me, why would you storm over and interrogate me with a dark expression?”

“Vivian! I’m not interrogating you. I’m merely reasoning with you. You claim to be Big Black Bear, but another person claiming the same appeared out of the blue now. Put yourself in my shoes. What would you do if you were me?” Leandro countered.

Still, Winnie merely smirked without saying anything.

Frustration swamped Leandro. “What exactly are you trying to say? I can’t fathom your thoughts when you’re acting so cryptically.”

Winnie arched a brow. “You don’t need to fathom my thoughts. Have that person come over for I want to meet him.”

“Okay. That person said the same. He said he’d like to meet you and see who you are. But Vivian…”

“What is it?”
