subconsciously stroked Winnie’s face in the photo with his thumb, then continued, “I was just about to delete the photo.”With that, he deleted the photo right before Winnie’s eyes.She felt a tightness in her chest when she saw what Xavier did. However, she managed to calm herself down quickly.“It’s okay. We can take another one next time.”Xavier parted his lips, but he didn’t say anything and ignored Winnie.In fact, he was excited when he woke up this morning, realizing that he still had memories of what had happened the previous day.However, when he looked at the redness in his eyes in the mirror, he knew that his condition was still not stable enough.Therefore, he still had to hide the truth before his condition was completely stable.Honestly, Xavier felt uncomfortable in an enclosed space like the elevator. He was afraid that he would go mad and attack himself or Winnie.He felt it was necessary for him to go and see Josiah and get some sedatives from the latter.And by “some,” he meant a ton of sedatives.Therefore, Xavier darted out of the elevator once the door opened, as if someone was chasing him from behind.Looking at Xavier’s behavior, Winnie couldn’t help but furrow her brows.Why is he avoiding me as if I am a plague?Winnie had a grim expression on her face on her way to the Xander residence.

It doesn’t feel good to be a sitting duck.”Josiah stirred his coffee as he consoled her, “Don’t be disheartened. Actually, there’s still good news in these three days.”Winnie added four sugar cubes into her coffee, which was too bitter. “Huh? What is the good news? Tell me. If it’s not good news to me, I will beat you to a pulp,” she joked.“Hey, you’re too much! You can’t beat me to a pulp even if I lied to you with fake news.”Winnie sighed. She was just messing with him just now. “Just spill it and stop wasting time,” she urged.“Fine,” Josiah said. He adjusted his glasses and smiled as he continued, “I was going to say that Xavier’s condition has been improving after three days of acupuncture sessions.”Winnie arched a brow. “Did you bring him to the hospital for a check-up? Isn’t it difficult to run tests on the nerves?”“Yes. But the dosage of sedatives he’s been getting from me has decreased by the day.”“What? He’s
