Silly Bride

He hated Winnie to the bone.

Harold lowered his head to leer at Winnie.

He then traced Winnie’s features with his bandaged hand.

Ha! She’s blind. I bet she didn’t see this coming. I’m not in a hurry to teach her a lesson now. She is already blind, so she’ll wait for me to come home to the mansion every day. From today onward, I’m her man. That isn’t enough, for I want to be her master! I’ll make her life a living hell! This is just the start of the game.

Harold wanted to head to Fairchild Corporation now as he wanted to see how wealthy Xavier was.

“Turn around and head to the company,” Harold ordered the driver after having made up his mind.

Winnie gaped in surprise. “Are you not tired? Didn’t we agree to head back to the mansion first?”

“I’m not tired. It has been a few days since I last went to the company, so I suddenly feel like heading there,” Harold explained. “If you’re tired, we can find a spot ahead to stop the car. I’ll get someone else to send you back.”

Before Winnie could even open her mouth to respond, he added, “You know what? You should jut return to the mansion. It’s not safe for you to be running around when you can’t see. You must be tired after traveling around all day. I’ll be fine alone.”

With that, he instructed the driver, “Stop the car somewhere nearby.”

He then asked Louis, “Did anything happen at the company these few days?”

Hearing his superior’s question, Louis promptly selected some important matters to report to him.
