Immediately, he phoned Wilhelm. Very soon, the two men started discussing their Alendor trip.

When they were about to be done with their discussion, another call came in on Xavier’s phone.

The moment Wilhelm heard Xavier’s phone ringing, he concluded the phone call very quickly without taking up too much of Xavier’s time.

However, Xavier did not pick up his phone after putting down Winnie’s phone.

Winnie found it strange. “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you answering your phone?”

Xavier frowned before replying, “It’s my dad. I’m supposed to have a transnational conference with him tomorrow, but I’ve told Louis to cancel it. He must have received the news. I’ll go out and answer the call. You go ahead and take a rest first.”

As Xavier was talking, he picked up his phone.

Winnie grabbed his arm when he was about to leave.

“Are you worried that your dad will talk badly about me during your conversation?”

Xavier grunted softly in acknowledgment. “He won’t have anything nice to say. Lie down and rest first. I’ll be back in a short while.”

“All right.” Winnie was well aware that Xavier would get into an argument with his dad because of her. That was why she did not force him to stay with her. “I don’t wish to damage the relationship between you and your dad. Therefore, I think it’s better that you don’t take to heart everything he says.”

“I know. Don’t worry about it. I want you to lie down now! That’s an order!”
