“That’s what makes it a challenge,” Wilhelm explained with a stern expression. “If it’s something anyone can do, I wouldn’t be using it as a test for my future brother-in-law. Obviously, Mr. Fairchild can seek help from anyone, as long as he relies on his own resources. The deadline is half a month.”

“Just half a month?” Winnie’s brows furrowed tightly. “Isn’t it too short?”

Wilhelm cocked a brow in response. “There’s nothing I can do about it. That’s the deadline Prince Andrew has given me.”

Rendered speechless, Winnie took a deep breath. “Fine. In that case, didn’t you say that it’s all right for him to seek help from anyone he wants?”

“Yes, I believe Mr. Fairchild has his own network.” Wilhelm broke into a smile before he finished, “Isn’t that right?”

Meeting Wilhelm’s gaze, Xavier showed no intention of backing down. “It is, Mr. Speiser. Your observations are correct.”

“Very good.” Wilhelm was certain of Xavier’s failure. “In that case, I hope to hear good news from you soon. Anyway, I won’t be joining you for lunch as I have something to deal with.”

With that, Wilhelm took his leave.

Watching his leaving silhouette, Winnie could feel the frustration growing inside her. If not for the fact that he was her brother and they were in front of their grandparents, she would have definitely given him a piece of her mind.

Didn’t we agree last night that the trial has ended? I didn’t expect him to still have something up his sleeve. Just as expected of a sly old fox with ill intentions!

Sensing the change in Winnie’s mood, Xavier discreetly held her hand and whispered, “Don’t worry. I absolutely won’t let you down.”

His words caused Winnie to quickly regain her composure.

She asked him, “Do you already have a plan?”
