Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

“You’re right. I do work here. What you said made a lot of sense. Thank you for your reminder. I’ll avoid saying things like that in the future. Still, not every disease in this world can be cured, not even if that person is rich. Many loaded people ultimately died due to illnesses. Moreover, wealthier people tend to have more fragile relationships because they have the freedom to choose the better options. Unlike ordinary couples who need to tolerate and support one another, affluent men can simply look for another wife as they please. They can even engage in multiple relationships with different women simultaneously.”

The other housekeeper was stumped. “What are you trying to say? Are you really here to work?” She felt suspicious. “Don’t tell me you’re attempting to make a move on Mr. Fairchild? If that’s the case, I suggest you drop the idea. You’re unworthy of him. Even if Mrs. Fairchild remains blind for the rest of her life, you can’t hold a candle to her, not even with all your might.”

The housekeeper spoke blatantly, and her words were quite hurtful. Still, the pretty maid smiled nonchalantly. “Perhaps. But anything can happen in this world.”

That night, Xavier and Winnie held one another to sleep.

That was also the best sleep she had gotten in so many days.

On the other hand, Xavier didn’t rest well because he couldn’t be as optimistic as Winnie.

While she was sound asleep, he sneaked out to puff on a cigarette.

It had been a long time since he had last smoked, but he couldn’t resist the urge anymore after those few days.

He had to find a way to vent his annoyance, just like how he was puffing out the cigarette smoke.

After Xavier spent a few hours alone in the garden, Wilhelm arrived.

Both men didn’t wish to interrupt Winnie’s sleep, so they didn’t wake her up.

Wilhelm was enraged when he saw Xavier.

He grasped the latter’s collar and gnashed his teeth in rage. “Didn’t you promise you would safeguard her? What happened now? She lost her vision! Is this how you protect her even after you swore on it with your life?”
