Silly Bride

Chapter 62

one thing clear—even if it’s a dog belonging to me, I won’t allow it to be harmed by someone else!”“Yeah, not to mention your first love,” Winnie added with a smirk.That had Xavier flying into a rage. “You’d best stop while you’re ahead!”Winnie was utterly amused. He isn’t even allowing me to speak the truth now?Just when she was about to riposte, her phone dinged.It was Christopher having replied to her message.Sweeping a gaze over her phone screen, Xavier glimpsed Christopher’s name.“Who are you texting? You didn’t lodge a police report, did you?” he questioned coldly.“Of course not. Have you ever seen someone lodging a police report by texting, Mr. Fairchild? Never, yes? I’m just chatting with my husband about trivial stuff. Do you want to have a look?”A sneer tugged at Xavier’s lips. “No, it’s okay. I’m not interested in your private life.

That aside, he promised to make all preparations to back her up.One and a half hours later, Louis appeared with a massive suitcase in hand.It was filled with gold bars, weighing more than a hundred pounds.“We’ve installed a tracker in one of the semi-hollow gold bars, Mr. Xavier. The bodyguards in Teams 1 and 2 are ready to set out anytime. Here’s a bulletproof vest. Do put it on.”Louis had some conscience in the least, for he also prepared a bulletproof vest for Winnie.When Xavier and Winnie were all geared up, the kidnapper also called right on the dot.It was still a mechanical voice that had been processed through a voice changer. “We have a car in the underground parking lot, Mr. Fairchild. It’s a Volkswagen with a license
