Yes, she didn’t actually lose the pouch.

It was such an important thing that James had given her. How could she lose it so easily after a fall?

Harold was essentially only coming after her. She did not want Xavier to be put in danger as well.

If something bad were to happen, it should only happen to one of them. There was no need for the other to suffer as well.

He had tried to protect me so many times before, even at the cost of his own life! This time, it’s my turn to protect him.

The kiss she had shared with Xavier was not fake.

She did that because she wanted to and so she could swipe his earpiece at the same time.

Without it, he could no longer keep in contact with James.

I have to get Xavier out of danger as soon as possible!

At that thought, Winnie quickly stuffed the earpiece she had taken from Xavier into her ear.

Then, she opened the bag James had given her to see a pair of night vision goggles and a stun baton in it.

She understood that these were the only weapons James could provide her without breaking the rules.

After gearing herself up, she immediately called out to James.

“The pouch isn’t lost, and I’ve already sent Xavier to locate it. I have his earpiece with me. Officer Clark, please tell reinforcement to take him away immediately, and I’ll have to trouble you to call his phone to let him know. I won’t be telling him myself. I have to get to the chemical plant now because Harold is rushing me.”

James was shocked. He didn’t expect Winnie was just pretending that the pouch was lost.

However, he could understand why she was going through all this trouble.
