my intentions. Even if we made a mistake today, the Speiser family will always be your support.”The anger Winnie felt for Wilhelm made her forget to say goodbye to him when she was about to leave.However, deep down, she knew where he was coming from. In fact, he had done a great job from his stance.He was a relative who grew up with her, after all. Even if they got into a fight, she could never bring herself to blame or give him the cold shoulder. “Wilhelm, my love for you has never changed.” Looking at his eyes that were filled with stubbornness and gentleness at the same time, she could not help but step forward and hug him.When Wilhelm heard those words, he finally relaxed his deeply creased brows.He raised his hand and gently patted her back. “Grandma and I love you too. Now run along. Go to where you should be.”Winnie bobbed her head in response and marched out.It was raining cats and dogs outside as though someone had applied a grey filter to the night sky.Winnie was in such a hurry that she ignored her surroundings.By the time she arrived at the door and was about to unlock it, she noticed a shivering person standing beside her.Startled, she reached out and grabbed the person by the shoulder.The person wailed in agony, “It’s me, Nate! I’m an ally!”Sure enough, the voice belonged to Nate. However, it was also that he was Nate that Winnie did not release him right away.She asked coldly, “Haven’t you left already? Why are you still lurking outside?”Nate explained, “I wasn’t lurking. I was already standing out here, but you didn’t notice me. Can you let me go first?

Do you think I’m a saint who returns a grudge with a favor? Stay here and endure the cold!”With that, Winnie went on to unlock the door.Gazing at her side profile, Nate said, “I’ll do whatever you want. I’m sure you can see I’m not here to cause trouble this time. I’m really here to apologize.”Because of the rainwater on her finger, the fingerprint recognition failed to identify her fingerprint. She proceeded to key in the passcode, ignoring Nate the entire time.Just as what Nate had said, he had sincerely come over to apologize to her. It did not matter if she ignored him, for he would find a way to touch her heart.Just then, the door in front of them was suddenly swung open from the inside, and a disheveled woman walked out, meeting Winnie’s eyes.Upon meeting Winnie’s scrutinizing gaze, the woman immediately retreated timidly.Unfortunately, Winnie had no intentions of stepping aside from the door. The woman had no choice but to make her way around the former and scurry out of the house.Before she could take a few more steps, Winnie said icily, “Don’t do this kind of thing in the future.”The woman
