Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

After receiving no reply from the couple, Josiah pleaded, “Take it as I am begging you. Come back right now, please?”

However, at the thought of the corpse which they saw at the dumpster and the two explosions which happened earlier that day, Winnie and Xavier answered in unison, “We can’t!”

Both of them exchanged glances, surprised by how in sync they were with each other.

After that, Winnie continued to focus on the road while Xavier started explaining to Josiah, “Josiah, we are already at the point of no return.” They were responsible for the safety of other innocent people.

They could choose not to go and head back, but that would be too selfish.

However, Xavier did not tell that to his friend.

He merely said to Josiah, “Rather than trusting your gut feeling, why don’t you put your faith in Winnie and me? Wait for us to come back, and treat us to a meal after that to help calm our nerves.”

“Xavier,” Josiah started to panic as he replied, “I’m not joking! I really have a bad feeling! Do you remember what happened when we were kids? That time—”

“I do!” Xavier cut his friend off at once and turned to look at Winnie, who was still looking ahead, before continuing, “That’s why I will make sure I am extra careful this time.”

He would do anything to protect the woman he loved and not allow anyone to hurt her.

“Josiah, stop wasting your breath. We are not going to change our minds no matter what you say. We promise that we will return safely.”

“That’s right, Dr. Houghton,” Winnie added. “We have to see you get married and have kids. We are going to be your children’s godparents. Okay, we have to hang up now. We could be receiving urgent calls or messages anytime.”

There was nothing more Josiah could say. He knew that Xavier was a stubborn man. With Winnie, who was extremely persistent, around, it would be impossible to persuade them.
