Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

“Why? I also think that you need to take a break. Why did you cancel all of a sudden? Is it because there’s a conflict between you and Xavier?” Lisanne asked concernedly.

“That’s not it.” At the thought of what she was about to say, Winnie couldn’t help but turn solemn as she said with a heavy heart, “Something bad happened to Mason, and Harold is the culprit.”

“What do you mean? What happened to Mason? Is he all right?”

“He’s dead.”

Stumped, Lisanne fell silent for a few seconds before she asked, “Are you sure Harold is the culprit? But you’ve tried multiple approaches to force him out of hiding previously, yet he remained hidden. He decides to stir up trouble now that you’ve finally had the time to go on a holiday?”

“Yes. Apparently, he’s been keeping an eye on everything I did previously. Not only that, but he’s also very patient. He knew I was looking for him, so he didn’t show himself. Now that I want to relax, he harmed my bodyguard, Mason. Therefore, I think we shouldn’t meet up for the time being, Lisanne. I figure Harold must be secretly observing me using some method somewhere. I’m worried I’ll drag you into this mess with me if he realizes we’re closely acquainted.”

“Winnie, is the situation really that serious?”

“Yes. Harold is much more dangerous than you can imagine.”

“All right, then. I won’t add to your trouble. However, if you face any difficulties or require assistance, you must seek Lucas out at once. I may not be able to provide you with much help due to my limited capabilities, but I’m confident Lucas can.”

“Okay. I got it.” Winnie replied half-jokingly, “I’ll definitely make full use of Lucas. After all, he’s free labor.”

Then, she asked, “By the way, you sounded very excited just now. Were you planning to treat me to a meal because I’m going on vacation, or is there some other good news? Tell me so that I can share in your joy.”

news can cheer you up.” At the mention of the glad tidings, Lisanne’s voice sounded more upbeat too. “You’re also aware of the first matter. When the police went to meet with Mr. Bennett and Mdm.
