Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 288

Winnie did not disagree with Xavier’s desire to come over.

All she did was look at Wilhelm somberly, which made it seem like she was talking to him instead, “Okay, there are some things we need to face and resolve together. I’ll wait for you.”

Xavier hummed in response. Then, he called out her name again and solemnly said, “Winnie, I won’t let you down.”

His words warmed Winnie’s heart, and she subconsciously pursed her lips. “I know.”

As she was on speaker with Wilhelm around, the two of them did not say much.

Furthermore, Xavier did not wish to put Winnie in a tight spot, so their call did not last for long.

After ending the call, Winnie said nothing else to Wilhelm.

All she did was silently take out some gauze from the first aid kit before quietly wrapping up her wound.

When Wilhelm saw that it was inconvenient for her to do it alone, he stepped forward, wanting to help her out.

However, Winnie was a little upset with Wilhelm at the moment, so she avoided him.

“Don’t be like this, Winnie. Even if you’re angry, you shouldn’t ignore the injury on your hand. You can’t treat it by yourself.”

Hearing that, Winnie paused in her tracks.

As she looked at the brother she admired, she frowned. “So you know I’m mad, but you still did that.”

Wilhelm hung his head to stare at Winnie for a moment before he crouched down in front of her.

“All right, Winnie,” Wilhelm started in a much softer voice. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have taken your phone without your permission just now. Can you forgive me for my mistake?”

“What?” Winnie arched a brow. “Is that all, Wilhelm? You’re apologizing because you took my phone without asking me about it? Is that all you’re apologizing for? Do you think it was fine for you to declare something without my knowledge and say those words to Xavier?”

Wilhelm stared at Winnie for a while before rising to his feet. “Yes, if you look at this from my perspective, I think you’ll realize that I was right to do that.”

Wilhelm was a man who commanded attention with his presence, and he was quite tall as well.

His sudden change of position made the small motel room feel smaller and made the tension in the air increase.

However, all Winnie did was furrow her brows. In the next second, she stood up as well.

In a firm voice, she said, “I don’t accept your apology.”

Wilhelm was livid. He was older than Winnie by nine years, and in a way, he had watched over her since young—he saw how she had transformed from a mentally challenged child to her current state.

Yet, she was arguing with him for a man she only knew for a short time, and that made him feel sad.

Thus, his tone turned forceful, and he even stopped speaking Chanaean.

“Do whatever you want. Regardless of everything, that man has to gain approval from me and our grandparents. Even if you don’t care about how I feel, I’m sure you won’t risk a falling out with the family for a man, right? If not, rhat’ll be a foolish move!”

With that, Wilhelm ignored Winnie’s hand injury and left without closing the door behind him.

Winnie was rarely at the end of his stern scolding, so she rushed over to the doorway and slammed the door shut.
