Chapter 35

into the room.“You’re awake? Are you not feeling well?” Xavier strode over to the bed and looked downward at Winnie.Winnie had no choice but to pretend as if she had just woken up. She rubbed her eyes and mumbled, “Handsome, you’re back? Winnie misses you so much.”“Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?” Noticing something amiss about Winnie, Xavier reached out to touch her forehead.Even though Winnie said nothing, she was cursing away at Xavier in her mind. Has he no shame in asking me why my face is red? I’ll like to see your face not turn red after running a hundred meters without stopping!“You don’t feel hot. Where are you feeling uncomfortable? Tell me.”Winnie tilted her head to the side to avoid Xavier’s touch. “Winnie’s feeling uncomfortable with the way you’re pressing your hand on Winnie. There’s a pungent smell on your hand. It stinks.”This b*stard hugged another woman outside. He already has the smell of others, and it’s disgusting to smell it right now.Xavier froze. With a frown, he retracted his hand.Right then, Josiah sent him a message, and Xavier took out his phone to check it.Josiah: I’ve safely sent her to her destination. She’s very understanding, and she didn’t ask many questions. All she asked me was about your condition, and she was worried that you might have some long-term effects from that. It’s obvious that she’s still concerned about you. Oh, by the way, I found an old photo a while ago. I didn’t show it to you because I was worried that you might not be happy, but now’s the time.Then Xavier received a photo.It was Josiah’s selfie, but he and Yulissa had accidentally photobombed him.It had been a rainy day that day, and he had been waiting for the driver to come. Yulissa had shared her umbrella with him.The photo reminded Xavier of that rainy day, and some feelings began to bloom in Xavier’s heart again.Hence, when he turned to Winnie, he forced himself to be cold.“Dumbo, I came to tell you not to call me anymore. I’ll get someone to bring your granny over tomorrow so that she can take care of you. I don’t think I’ll come back to Lagune Mansion ever again.”Winnie was at a loss for words. You were the one who called me first in the afternoon, okay? I was just being polite to call you back. Who knew you b*stard would have kept the phone switched off? Ha. A b*stard who has his ex-girlfriend throwing herself into his arms surely acts differently. He’s suddenly so determined and cold-hearted! You don’t think you’ll ever come back? So what? Do I look like I’m going to kneel before you and beg you not to? I should have welded that fire escape shut in the hotel!Winnie was furious. But not wanting to give up that way, she frowned and began sobbing on purpose.“Why? Handsome, why won’t you come back? Handsome, do you not want Winnie anymore? Do you not like Winnie anymore?”Xavier forced himself to look away from Winnie and made himself think about Yulissa instead. In a cold tone, he said, “Ha, you’re just a dumbo. Do you really think you can get my love? I spent time with you because I pitied you. Who do you think you are?”What? Did this d*mn man take the wrong pill today? Is he hearing what he’s saying? He wasn’t like this in the past!Winnie was boiling with anger. She grabbed an ornament on the bedside table and threw it at Xavier’s head.“Hmph! You’re a meanie! People who don’t like Winnie are all meanies!”Winnie did not expect Xavier to not
