When she subconsciously turned to look at Xavier, it was to see the latter staring back at her.

Without saying another word, he reached out his hand to pull her toward him.

Wrapped in his embrace, Winnie couldn’t help but shed tears. “You didn’t push Christopher off the building. You’re innocent.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Xavier leaned in to give her a peck on the forehead before replying in a deep voice, “I know. I have clearly not let you down.”

“Yes, you didn’t, but it was I who failed you. I’m sorry to have blindly believed Granny all this while and wrongly accused you. I must have made you miserable. I’m truly sorry.”

Winnie responded with a gentle shake of her head. “I insist as both you and Christopher deserve it. Considering Granny’s current condition and the fact that I’m her guardian, I must apologize for the harm she has done to the two of you.”

“Fine. Go ahead and do what you need to.” Xavier’s support for Winnie was unconditional. “I accept your apology. Once Captain Bennett has recovered and can see us, we’ll visit him together. After all, I’m still responsible one way or another.”

Furthermore, I believe everything will be better going forward.”
