Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 408

Chapter 408 One Lucky Fellow

“Winnie, that’s what I want to talk to you about.” Wilhelm paused for a beat before continuing, “I already found them. Your friend, Lisanne, sustained some minor injuries but nothing serious. However, Xavier isn’t doing very well. He was already unconscious when we found him. I still don’t know his exact condition because the doctors are still checking him at the hospital.”

Winnie was slightly relieved at hearing Xavier was alive but still anxious about not knowing his exact condition.

Immediately, she blurted out without hesitation, “I’ll head over there now!”

Before hanging up, she urged, “The medical facilities there aren’t good, so you must send him to the best hospital and allocate the best doctors. I can’t be by his side now, so you have to take care of him for me. After going through so much to get him out, we can’t afford any mistakes now.”

“Don’t worry, Winnie. I’ll take care of him.” It was Wilhelm’s first time witnessing his sister worrying over another person’s safety to the extent of losing her mind. He didn’t know if that was a good or bad sign.

Despite his concerns, he still promised her, “Xavier is your man. I’ll do my very best for your future happiness, so rest assured since I’ll be here. It isn’t convenient for you to rush over here with your eyes’ current condition. You know as well as I do that the medical facilities here aren’t that good. Once the doctors determine Xavier’s condition has stabilized enough for a transfer, I’ll immediately arrange his transport back to Avenport. I’ll deliver him to you with all his limbs intact and functional. He’ll be fine, I promise.”

“No.” Winnie suddenly clenched her fingers over her chest. “I don’t know why I’m feeling uneasy about this. I want to be by his side. I know he needs me.”

“Winnie, Xavier should not be in critical condition now. If I were him, I wouldn’t want you to put your health and safety on the line just to come to my side. Listen to me. Wait for my news, okay?” Wilhelm coaxed.

Josiah, who heard everything, also joined Wilhelm in persuading Winnie, “Yeah, your brother is right. Let’s wait for an update. It’ll only be a few hours tops. Besides, we have great facilities here. Once Xavier is doing better, he’ll be sent back! Won’t we just get in their way if we rush there instead?”

Josiah deliberately exaggerated his words because he knew Winnie well. She would never change her mind if he didn’t put it that way.

Winnie inhaled a deep breath to calm her nerves. “All right, sorry. I’m a bit frantic right now, but I’ll take your advice.”

Wilhelm was relieved when Winnie finally relented and changed her mind. “Okay. This is the best arrangement at the moment. I’ll make the arrangements now, so wait for my update.”

“Okay.”

Winnie turned to Josiah nervously. “Why do I
