a sprain. It’s getting late. I just want to rest. Let me sleep first, and if it still hurts tomorrow, you can bring me to the hospital. If it doesn’t hurt tomorrow, we don’t need to go, then.”It was indeed getting late at the moment. Winnie agreed thinking that it was not a serious injury.“I’ll help you to the bed first. Even if it’s a sprain, it’s best to go to the hospital to get some medicine tomorrow.”Jacinta sighed. “It’s my bad for being careless. It doesn’t affect you and Xavier, does it?”Winnie shook her head. “No. I was the one who wasn’t thoughtful enough. I’ll ask someone to put a non-slip mat in the bathroom tomorrow.”As Winnie said that, she helped Jacinta to her feet slowly.After Jacinta was brought to bed, she asked, “What if I need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night?”“Of course, I’ll help you. I’ll sleep here with you tonight,” Winnie replied.“You’re not going up?”“Nope, I’m not. I’ll stay here to take care of you. You should rest first. Let me bring over a glass of water for you.”Jacinta nodded. “All right. I’m thirsty.”After leaving Jacinta’s room, Winnie fished out her phone and sent a message to Xavier, saying that she wouldn’t go upstairs that night.Xavier expected this would happen, so he was not surprised.The two exchanged a couple of messages before Winnie put her phone away.Jacinta usually went to bed early and couldn’t fall asleep in a lit room, so Winnie didn’t use her phone on the bed after she turned off the lights.Before they fell asleep, Jacinta and Winnie chatted for a while.Jacinta asked, “Is Xavier living upstairs recently?”Winnie answered, “Yes, it’s more convenient for him to go to his office from here. Besides, it’s also close to my office as well. By the way, Granny, there’s something I haven’t had the chance to tell you.”“Go on. What is it?”“During the time when I returned to Yartran some time ago, Xavier also went there after I left and he also met my grandparents there. Initially, they didn’t know him well, so they didn’t agree with me marrying him. However, my brother tested Xavier, and he passed successfully. In the end, Grandpa and Grandma approved of him. Granny, I’m very glad that my grandparents and my brother approved of our marriage.”Winnie said that because she knew Jacinta was not fond of Xavier. But Wilhelm, Grandpa, and Grandma have approved of Xavier, so why can’t Granny? Naturally, Jacinta caught the meaning behind Winnie’s words.She thought for a while and said, “Xavier is an excellent man. Even the duke and the others acknowledge him as your partner. But, Winnie, some impressions can’t be changed right away. I still can’t forget the scene of Xavier pushing Captain Bennett down from the rooftop. He looked really terrifying.”“Granny, let’s not talk about this matter anymore. We should hit the hay,” Winnie responded. She knew that Jacinta probably didn’t mean to bring up that matter, but she really didn’t want to recall that moment.The next morning, Jacinta woke up early, and Winnie was woken up by her movement.Seeing that Jacinta wanted to get out of bed by herself, Winnie sat up at once. “Where are you going, Granny?”Jacinta put her hand on her sore back. “I’ll make breakfast. You can sleep for a while more. I’ll call you when it’s ready.”“No!” Winnie quickly lifted the thin quilt and got off the bed. “Let me do it. You should rest to relieve your lower back pain.”Jacinta gently massaged her waist. “It’s okay. It’s not painful anymore. I don’t need to go to the hospital either. Go about your business today, and don’t worry about me. Ask Xavier to come back in the evening and have dinner with us.”“Really? Don’t push yourself too hard. You didn’t agree with me when I said we should find a housekeeper to prepare meals for us.”“Why do we need one? Doing housework is also a kind of exercise. I won’t be happy if you let me sit and be idle all day long. You should lie down and sleep longer.”Even so, Winnie still got up and made breakfast with Jacinta.While having breakfast, Jacinta asked, “Are you going to work with Xavier later?”Winnie took a look at the clock before replying, “No. I won’t go to work today. I’m going to do something elsewhere. As for Xavier, he probably will need to sleep an hour longer, so I won’t go with him. I’ll leave immediately later.”Jacinta glanced at her. “I told you you should sleep a little longer.”“It’s fine. I’m fully rested.” Winnie smiled. She usually didn’t eat much in the morning, so she finished her breakfast quickly.After that,
