Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

“There’s no need for that,” Xavier interjected before James could finish his words. “We’ll cooperate with you, and we will shoulder the losses that will occur from this.”

This was the decision Xavier and Winnie made unanimously after exchanging glances.

It was their responsibility as good citizens to contribute to the maintenance of public order.

Evacuating the workers was a basic act of respect toward life. In the face of human lives, monetary losses were insignificant.

“All right.” James nodded at Winnie and Xavier. “Thank you for making sacrifices for the greater good. Well, I’m done talking. Can you tell me what’s going on with your side currently?”

With his brows scrunched, David piped up, “Let me update you on that. This is what happened.”

Then, he summarized that day’s incidents for James.

After listening to David, James remarked, “The Special Task Force already set off in the morning. According to what you told me, Harold personally went to Garland Group this morning to deliver something. In that case, it would be impossible for him to track Ms. Marsh unless he had put a tracker on her in advance. However, before the Special Task Force members left, we did a thorough inspection of the equipment they had on them. If Ms. Marsh really had a special electronic device on her, we would have intercepted it. But as of now, I haven’t received any reports on it.”

Winnie knitted her eyebrows and raised a question. “But what if… what if the person who delivered the package was someone else and not Harold?” She went on, “Harold may have undergone plastic surgery, so we don’t even know what he looks like at the moment. If the person who went to Garland Group this morning is not Harold, then the latter might have been keeping his eye on Lisanne since last night. He has earned quite a fortune in the past few years and gathered a big group of subordinates, and there are lots of fearless guys willing to risk their lives for him. Besides, he has always been hiding in the dark. We have no idea who his informant is. The Special Task Force deals with all kinds of vicious terrorists, so they are constantly in danger. As if that weren’t enough, they now have Harold, who’s waiting to pounce on them. I’m really worried about my friend. It isn’t an exaggeration to say that she is powerless.”
