long after the meal.“Ms. Garland, how did it go? Have you finished the home-cooked meal prepared by your grandmother?”Winnie held the dishes in one hand and her phone in the other.“Did you install a surveillance camera in my house? How did you know if I have finished eating?”“It’s okay! Just leave everything to me. You can get busy with your work.” Seeing that Winnie was talking on the phone, Jacinta stopped her from cleaning the table.Winnie nodded and ceased cleaning up. She then spoke to Josiah on the phone.“I guess you have eaten as well. Have you fixed the time and place for the meetup with Xavier?”“Yes! I’m waiting for you now.”“Where is it? Lagune Mansion or Aqua Moana?”“Aqua Moana.”“That’s great. In that case, I don’t have to rush. Just a moment. I’ll be right there in five minutes.”After saying that, Winnie hung up the phone. She then informed Jacinta about it and went upstairs.The moment she walked out of the elevator, she saw Josiah.Curious, Winnie asked, “What’re you standing at the door for? Why didn’t you get inside?”“I’ve just reached.” Josiah continued to explain with a smile, “I thought you would be here soon, so I’ve been waiting for you. We can go inside together, so Xavier won’t have to open the door one more time.”Hearing that, Winnie was left speechless. She ignored him and lifted her chin, gesturing for the man to press the doorbell.The doorbell rang a few times before Xavier came over to open the door.When the door opened, Xavier scooted aside and allowed Josiah to get inside first.After that, he narrowed his eyes at Winnie. “What a coincidence! We meet again,” he exclaimed.“Yeah.” Winnie took a glance at him and replied, “Fate has brought us together, hasn’t it?” Xavier grunted in response. He let Winne walk through the door. Staring at her back, he asked, “How’s your husband? Has he recovered from his illness yet?”Josiah, who had just entered the unit, almost tripped and fell when he heard that.Winnie, on the other hand, turned around and scrutinized Xavier.With a faint smile, she replied, “Well, there’s been no sign of improvement.”Josiah frowned. “What’s with this? Are you two putting up an act?”He then asked Xavier in disbelief, “Do you know who her husband is?“No.” Xavier glanced at Winnie and raised his eyebrows. “Why? Do I need to know it?”Josiah was speechless.“Well, here’s what happened…” Seeing that Josiah was befuddled, Winnie took the initiative to enlighten him.
