Silly Bride

Chapter 193

he had strong self-control. He gave me this tranquilizer and asked me to inject him with it. At that time, I almost injected all the medication into his body, but who would’ve thought he would go berserk at the last second? He grabbed the syringe from my hand and injected the last few bits of the medication into my body. After that, he started messing up the entire place. I wanted to stop him, but I couldn’t move because of the tranquilizer. If you hadn’t come, I wouldn’t know how long I would have continued lying unconscious on the ground.”Winnie’s expression changed after she heard that.However, she was still able to think logically. “Usually, when someone in a frenzied state rushes out of the room, there’s no way he will close the door behind him. But the door was perfectly locked when we came in, so he should still be here. Master, please sit down and rest. I’ll look for him with Josiah.”“Go on! Don’t worry about me. I’m sober now.”“Okay,” Winnie said before she dashed toward the consultation room.The room was small, so she didn’t leave any spots unchecked. Even so, there was still no sign of Xavier.Suddenly, Josiah shouted from another room, “Winnie! I found him! He’s here!”“Where?” Immediately, she ran out.“Here!”He knew that he was in Yolanda’s room, but he had to pretend that he didn’t know so that Sebastian wouldn’t suspect anything.What will Old Mr. Xander think of me if I said I’m in Yolanda’s room and if he knows I’ve been watching Yolanda’s every move?However, Sebastian was oblivious to Josiah’s concerns.He pointed Winnie in a specific direction when he saw her walking out of the consultation room.“It’s right in front. Yolanda’s room is next to the study. Hurry!”The next moment, Winnie rushed toward Yolanda’s room.Other than wanting to see how Xavier was doing, she was thinking about something else.She had wanted to get rid of Yolanda from Sebastian at the same time so that she could search Yolanda’s room, but who would’ve thought that she would enter Yolanda’s room with Josiah like that?Things didn’t go as Josiah had planned in the early morning.Yolanda had locked her door from the outside, so logically, no one could open it without a key.But now, the lock was broken, and the room was a mess too.Anyone could tell the mess was Xavier’s doing with a glance.Winnie sighed as she approached Xavier and touched his forehead. “How is he? Is he all right?”“He’s fine. A situation like this is normal for him. I guess he’ll wake up after he sleeps for a few hours. I just hope there won’t be any more problems with his brain after he wakes up. We’ll talk later. Let’s bring him outside first. We can’t let him continue to sleep in Yolanda’s room,” Josiah said as he put Xavier on his shoulders.Winnie agreed and grabbed Xavier’s other arm as she helped Josiah support Xavier’s weight.Soon, both of them got Xavier on the couch in the living room, and Sebastian quickly felt Xavier’s pulse.“His pulse is gentle and steady. I think the tranquilizer is working. Let him rest for a while. Give him some medication once he wakes up.”“Okay. Master, how about I clean up the place with Josiah since Xavier has made a mess, especially Ms. Xander’s room? The lock is broken. I’ll get someone to change a new lock later. As for the medicine, we have it at home, so I think it should be fine if I give it to Xavier after we get home,” Winnie said after exchanging a glance with Josiah.“That’s a great idea. I’ll leave this place to you two. I’m still a little unwell, so I’ll go back to my room to rest now,” Sebastian replied.“I’ll help you.”“That won’t be necessary. I can get into my room by myself. Just let me know when you leave.”After Sebastian returned to his room, Winnie and Josiah immediately walked into Yolanda’s room.Even after the two of them searched all over Yolanda’s room for a long time, they still couldn’t find anything else suspicious. All they could find was a small box of hypnotic incense.They had already found out about the hypnotic incense, so they weren’t shocked to find it.Josiah started cursing out of irritation after he rummaged through the closets and couldn’t find anything.“I’m sure she’s hiding something in this room. But where? Must we dig the ground to find it?” he asked while stamping his foot.Although what Josiah was doing looked like a futile move, Winnie didn’t stop him. What if she’s really hiding something underneath the ground?When Winnie considered whether she should knock on the walls, her phone suddenly rang.She took it out and saw that it was Yolanda’s phone number.Furrowing her brows, she picked up the phone.“Hello? What’s the matter?”Yolanda chuckled bitterly. “Drop the act! You were the one who threw stones at me and punctured my tire, weren’t you? Are you playing pretend?”“If you really have to put it this way, I can only tell you that I didn’t puncture your tire.”Yolanda continued to chuckle coldly. “Hah! So, you admit it. Just you wait. I’ll expose you in front of Grandpa once I’m home. I’ll let him know how his favorite student treats his granddaughter.” Winnie frowned. “So, do you admit that you hypnotized Xavier?”Yolanda was silent for a while before she continued, “That’s nonsense.”Winnie smirked. “Hmph! Very well. I know what you mean now.”“Oh? Why don’t you tell me what you understood?”“It’s meaningless. You’ve never been cooperative, so there’s no need for us to continue talking,” Winnie said and hung up instantly.Josiah had stopped stamping on the ground when Winnie answered the call because he didn’t want to disturb her.Once Winnie hung up, he asked, “What is Yolanda up to by calling you?”“She wishes to report to Old Mr. Xander that I stalked her and hurt her. But she’s the one who started it. Besides, she also hurt me by prickling me with needles and making monkeys follow me. Who should I complain to? Let’s—”Josiah suggested, “Since she wishes to involve Old Mr. Xander in this matter, let’s make the first move! Didn’t she refuse to admit to hypnotizing Xavier? Then, let’s bring the hypnotic incense piece you got from the dumpster and the one you found in her room. We’ll let Old Mr. Xander compare them himself. From
