Silly Bride

Chapter 187

since Xavier won’t be able to find her. I’m hoping he’ll give up on his own.”Josiah knitted his brows and commented, “To be honest, I think you seem to underestimate how persistent he is with you. Even if he can’t find Rachel this time, he most likely won’t give up.”“We’ll talk about that later.” For the first time ever, Winnie felt worn out.Even though Xavier had issues with his body and memory even before, she had never felt so uneasy.However, things were different this time. He could remember everyone but her. It made her feel extremely upset.The two did not waste any time. Soon, they drove out of the mansion area.Unexpectedly, Winnie received a call from Michael while they were on the way to Aqua Moana.Michael sounded very anxious. “Ms. Garland, I have bad news for you. Mr. Fairchild came to my cousin’s house and forcibly took Rach away!”“What?” Winnie was perplexed. “How did he discover your cousin’s house?”Letting out a sigh, Michael replied, “I’m not sure when he gave Rach a phone. It appears that she sent Mr. Fairchild her location. What should I do now?”“What else can we do?” Josiah, who was seated next to Winnie, could hear what Michael was saying because of the latter’s loud voice. “Why didn’t anyone stop him when he tried to take her away? Don’t you have a big family there? You could have at least called the police if you couldn’t stop him.”“I was initially unaware of it. After I woke up in the morning, I went out to get some breakfast. When I returned home, my cousin informed me that Rach had left with someone.”“What in the world?” Josiah was slightly irritated. “You just said she was taken away, and now you say she left with someone. I’m beginning to question if it was actually Xavier who took your daughter away.”“It’s definitely Mr. Fairchild. His photo can be found on the internet. There’s no way my cousin would make a mistake.”“Your cousin is a—” Josiah lost his composure and almost called Michael’s cousin a moron, but Winnie interrupted him at that moment.“Don’t worry, Mr. Zimmerman. If Xavier really did take her away, it shouldn’t be a big deal. Let me make a call first. Wait for my news.”“Okay. Sorry for troubling you, Ms. Garland.”“No problem.” After hanging up, Winnie told Josiah to call Xavier.“It’s inconvenient to call while driving. I’ll give you my phone, and you can call him.” As Josiah spoke, he fished out his phone and handed it to Winnie.Just when Winnie was about to search for Xavier’s phone number in the contacts, she suddenly stopped.Josiah gave her a quick glance as the car came to a stop at the red light. “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you calling him? Why are you staring out the window?”“There’s no need to call anymore.” Winnie slowly put down the phone. “I found them.”“Where are they?” While asking, Josiah followed Winnie’s gaze and looked out the window.Xavier and Rachel were eating buns while seated at a table in a bakery.Rachel was gobbling up the food without any care about her image.Nevertheless, Xavier continued to gaze at her affectionately, occasionally giving her another bun and wiping the stains from her face.He even went so far as to use a tissue to clean every finger of hers that had touched the buns.Clenching Josiah’s phone tightly, Winnie piped up, “I just realized something.”“What is it?”“You said that Xavier already fell for me when I was acting dumb back then, but he was afraid to admit it because he thought it was perverted. Actually, I didn’t quite understand that kind of thinking at that time. Even if the other person has some mental issues, I believe that loving someone is a very pure feeling that has nothing to do with perversion.”“How about now?”Winnie’s expression turned gloomy as she remarked, “Now that I see it, I have to admit it’s quite disgusting. Look at him. Doesn’t it appear as though he’s about to put her fingers in his mouth? This is lewd, disgusting, and perverse!”“Hahaha!” In an instant, Josiah burst into laughter. “Winnie, you’re just jealous. Are you not aware of it?”“Who said I was jealous? One of them is a fool, and the other one has a brain disorder. Why should I be jealous? I’m
