“Xavier.” Winnie leaned over and asked, “Are you throwing a tantrum? Of course, I know that we can spend money, but we need eye-catching content for that! It’s not like I’ll go viral if I post a clip of me drinking water. Besides, Harold could be hiding in the outback. It would be useless to spend money on a one-time advertisement like that. I need something that will trend and stir up continuous discussions, not something people will scroll by.”

“Then, let’s announce that we’ll be holding a wedding,” Xavier suggested earnestly. “I’ll gift you a luxury car, a mansion, and a diamond ring—the kind of diamond ring that people will talk about for months.”

“That’s too formal. Besides, we’ve never planned this before nor informed Grandpa and Grandma. It won’t be good to make things so formal. What I mean is, keep it casual. Take this seriously and think it through!”

Although Xavier was upset, that did not stop him from helping Winnie with her problems.

“Actually, there’s an upcoming opportunity. I think a lot of reporters will be gathering there. There will likely be tons of articles all over the place even if you don’t spend a dime,” he mentioned.

His words immediately piqued Winnie’s interest. “Oh? What opportunity is that?”

Xavier glanced at her and remarked, “You might not want to go though.”

“Why?” Winnie got even more curious at that.

“You really want to know?”

“Duh. I’m this close to holding you at knifepoint so you could tell me.”

Xavier nodded. “All right then. Wait for me here.”

When Winnie saw him standing up to leave, she held on to his arm and got to her feet as well. “Let’s go together. I want to see what this mysterious act is all about.”

Xavier looked down at Winnie, his eyes darkening. “I don’t know what mysterious act you’re talking about. What I know is that there’s a gorgeous woman before me.”

Then, he leaned down to approach her.

Winnie did not stop him, but just as their noses were about to touch, she suddenly lifted a finger to press his lips.

“Show me first,” she said with a sly grin.

Xavier couldn’t help but clench his jaw and bite her ear playfully. “You naughty girl!”

Upon seeing his reaction, Winnie burst into laughter. “I love seeing you being so helpless even when I frustrate you.”
