Chapter 142

retracted his gaze from the magazine and looked toward Winnie.At that moment, his cold gaze turned somewhat passionate.While looking in Winnie’s direction, it seemed like he was staring at everything he wanted in life.Under Winnie’s slightly relieved gaze and Josiah’s surprised gaze, Xavier walked toward Winnie.Josiah had even whispered in Winnie’s ear, “This is great! It seems like he remembers you.”Winnie heaved a sigh of relief because that was what she had in mind, too. The more he remembers, the faster he’ll recover.Seeing that he was heading in her direction, Winnie walked toward him as well.However, something unexpected happened. Xavier ignored Winnie and walked past her.When that happened, Winnie couldn’t help but frown.Josiah was puzzled.The person who was the most surprised by what was going on was Christopher.That was because Xavier had walked up to him and grabbed his hand.With a frown and a complicated look on his face, Xavier uttered domineeringly, “Dumbo, I’m going to say this again. Yulissa doesn’t exist. Forget that name! Also, I’m never going to see you as my little sister. Hence, don’t address me as your brother anymore. I’m not your brother. Lastly, I’m going to take you with me when I attend the charity gala in three days’ time. You’ll be my only female companion that night. Do you hear me?”Christopher was rendered speechless, while Josiah and Winnie were flabbergasted.“Do you hear me?” Xavier asked again.Christopher was so stunned that he didn’t know how to respond.“What is it?

How did you suddenly get so tall?”Christopher, Josiah, and Winnie were all utterly stupefied.“What…” Winnie stared blankly at Josiah.Josiah was gaping in disbelief as well. After a while, he said, “Well… I think he’s just having an episode, the kind that has never been seen before. Memory loss, memory confusion, and personality mutation. It seems like he has become a domineering CEO. In fact, he might’ve turned blind!”“So, what should I do now?” Christopher asked. “What do you mean by that? Who are these people? Why are they in our room?” Xavier was angry at Winnie and Josiah.He turned around and sized Josiah up. “Are you a doctor? Why are you here? Is someone sick?”Josiah still couldn’t believe his eyes. “This is a hospital. You’ve fallen sick.”“I’m sick? Ha!” Xavier sneered and mocked, “You’re a quack doctor!”After that, Xavier shifted his gaze toward Winnie. After sizing her up with his narrowed eyes, he asked, “Have I seen you before? Why do you look so familiar? Are you an employee of mine?”Winnie felt a shortness of breath when she saw his condition. “If you remember who Dumbo is and how your grandpa had asked you to bring her to the charity gala, how could you not remember what she looks like?”Xavier scrunched up his brows. “Do you hear the words coming
