Chapter 292

he saw Winnie opening the door.The coldness in the air made his voice tremble as he said, “I-I’m really here to apologize to you. See? I didn’t move an inch when you told me to stay out here. Is there anything else I need to do? Just tell me.”Winnie scrutinized him and realized his lips had turned purple from the cold.Without saying anything, she shot him a look that indicated for him to enter the house.The temperatures in the day and at night were drastically different. It was so cold outside that Nate, who was drenched, could feel the warm air from the house even though the door was only half open.Noting her actions, he followed her into the house.Winnie went straight to the counter in the open kitchen, and Nate went over as well.On the countertop sat a bottle of whisky that was already opened. Winnie took out two glasses and poured the alcohol into them until they were a third full.At that moment, Nate was feeling cold and thirsty.

Is this information from you?”“Yes. Xavier told you about it, I suppose? Truth is, Leandro is also thinking of the same thing. He and Harold are mad at you. However, they had an internal strife when I left, so I’m not sure what the current situation is.”“Not sure? Does that mean you don’t know whether Harold is dead or alive?” Winnie frowned at him.Nate pursed his lips. “I don’t.”Winnie snorted. “Looks like your information isn’t that reliable. Do you think you can be trusted, Nate?”Her words got him worked up. “Why not? I’m the only outsider apart from their own who knows about this. You wouldn’t
