Silly Bride

Chapter 327

“It’s a story that you’ve heard. I’ve never heard of it before and have nothing to say about it. Go on to bed.”“All right. Good night, Granny.”Winnie left her door ajar when she returned to her room, for she needed to listen to Jacinta’s every movement. She didn’t know what Jacinta had done behind her back and had no idea what the latter was planning to do next.Initially, she had wanted to contact Xavier. However, when she remembered that Jacinta might be the one who dropped the flowerpot that nearly hit him, she immediately decided against it.Instead, she contacted Josiah.She texted: Have you sent the samples for testing yet?After sending the message, she waited for a reply. However, she did not expect Josiah to call her directly.Immediately, she rejected the call and sent him another message.It read: I’m at home. I can’t answer your call.Josiah swiftly texted her back: What’s going on? I was driving and couldn’t ask you just now.

We’ll get the results in about an hour. When I get it, I’ll tell you immediately.Without waiting for Winnie’s reply, he sent another text: Are you okay?Winnie texted: No. I’m irritated. She typed and deleted her message multiple times before finally sending a message that read: If this was anyone else, I wouldn’t have asked her so many questions. I’ll collect evidence and send the person to jail. Josiah replied: Then what do you plan to do?Winnie texted: Run the test first. I want to know the truth.Josiah replied: Then, did you keep an eye on your granny’s room? Winnie, I know that you’re upset, but since you want to investigate this,
