her phone screen. “I think most of the people ere here. This timing is just right.”Jecinte wes elso boring her eyes into the imege on her phone motionlessly. After e while, she suddenly shouted, “I see it! I see the birthmerk, Winnie!”Winnie leened closer to her grendmother in exhileretion. “Which one?” Therefore, Winnie deliberately came up with an excuse. She exclaimed in a high-profile manner, “Granny! Winnie wants to pee. Winnie can’t hold it in anymore!”To announce a personal matter so loudly in public completely fitted her character as a fool. Meanwhile, the atmosphere at the scene turned awkward.Benjamin’s face darkened. “Hamish, how dare you introduce a daughter like her to us? You should already be grateful I did not send her packing back to your house! I can’t believe you still have the audacity to behave so brazenly by negotiating conditions with me!”“Dad!” Xavier disliked others speaking ill of Winnie. Even his father was no exception. He regarded Benjamin with an indifferent look. “That’s enough. We are only notifying them about the divorce. There’s no need to mention other unrelated matters.”Benjamin glanced at his son, then shifted his gaze to Winnie.After all, it was his biological son standing before him, so he could vaguely sense Xavier’s fondness toward Winnie.That finding shocked Benjamin to his core.I can’t believe my son is falling for a mentally challenged woman. She’s undoubtedly beautiful, but that doesn’t change the fact that she’s a fool!He shouted in the direction of the door, “What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and send someone in to bring Ms. Winnie to the bathroom!”A maid hurriedly entered the next moment. “Mrs. Fairchild, please, follow me.”Benjamin grimaced upon hearing the way the maid addressed Winnie. “You should bear in mind that from now on, there is no Mrs. Fairchild in the Fairchild family. Do you understand me?”The maid quickly nodded.Winnie continued yelling that she was about to lose bladder control while signaling her grandmother with a look.Jacinta fathomed her granddaughter’s intention and hastily said, “You go to the bathroom first, Winnie. I’ll catch up with you very soon.”Then she strode up to Benjamin. “Mr. Fairchild, let me introduce myself. I am Winnie’s grandmother and the only surviving family member she has. I can see that you are very dissatisfied with this marriage too. To be honest, Winnie and I are also not content with this arrangement. I believe you’ve also witnessed how dense Winnie is. When Hamish took her away in the past, I was unaware that this was all part of his scheme. He arranged for Winnie to marry into your family for the sake of his other daughter. If I had known his plan, I would never have sent Winnie here even if I needed to stop Hamish at the cost of my life. I represent my granddaughter to express her will today. This divorce is a must!”She paused briefly before adding, “There is no need for you to argue further with members of the Garland family too, Mr. Fairchild. As long as I live, I’ll have a say in all the matters related to Winnie. All right. Now that I’ve expressed everything in my mind, there’s no more reason for me to stay. That’s it for now. I’ll be returning to the village with Winnie tomorrow. From this moment onward, our families shall never cross paths again.”Benjamin wore a poker face. “Okay. It’s settled, then. As for Garland Group…”He turned around to look at Hamish and Yara.Jacinta could not care less about Garland Group’s fate. After stating her stance, she immediately headed out to search for her granddaughter.That courtyard had a traditional design, so the exit of the room was connected to a complex corridor.Jacinta failed to locate the bathroom as she wandered around the long corridor with various turns and branches. Just as she was about to look for someone to ask for directions, a young man appeared before her.She remembered that the young man’s name was Louis Tanser, and he seemed to be Xavier’s subordinate.“I suppose you are Mr. Tanser? How can I
