Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

Chapter 390

Abigail immediately called Harold after sending over the photo.

Meanwhile. Harold only picked up the call after looking at the photo. "Got it. I'll send you the money in a while."

Abigail was slightly annoyed by liis half-hearted response and retorted. "Are you only giving me money? I already told you I'm selling tliis for one thousand, the same price I sold to others. Wliat I really want is the dirt you have on them. Send me the information now."

"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you afraid I'll go back on our agreement? Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."

Abigail muttered. "Who knows? In any case. I have already done everything you told me to. You better show me your sincerity in this partnership."

"Okay. Let's make this fair. Since you sent me a photo. I'll send one back.* With that. Harold hung up the phone.

Soon. Abigail received a photo from Harold.

It was a photo of Winnie hugging a naked man in a basement, and they appeared to be in deplorable conditions. Also, the man was sporting a buzz cut. so it was obvious that it wasn't Xavier. However. Abigail was still unsure, so she immediately gave Harold a call, asking. "Wliat do you mean with this photo? Are you implying Winnie cheated on Xavier, and this man is her lover?" Harold answered. "Yes. your understanding is accurate."

Abigail inspected the photo closely. "Why is there only one picture, then? I feel like something is amiss, as this background looks weird. Why are there chains in the basement? Wliat kind of lovers would meet in such a place?"

Harold chuckled, and his rough voice became slightly terrifying. "What's strange about this? Everyone has their own kinky preferences. Wliat if Winnie enjoys this type of gruesome sexual activity? Don't you think it will be shocking news?"

Abigail didn't understand such preferences but pretended she understood him. "It does look shocking. Why is there only one photo though?"

"Of course. I have more photos. I have an entire video footage of this. This is simply a screenshot from the video. However, you only gave me a photo. I can only give you more if you're willing to give me more. This is only the dirt on Winnie. I still have Xavier's. I would like to see the blueprint for their mansion as well as specific information about the people who work there. You must act quickly.**

"All right. I understand. I'll act quickly. However, this photo isn't photoshopped, right?"

"Does it look photoshopped? It was obviously taken from a video.**

"Okay. Wait for my good news."

In reality, this photo was actually real, as it was from the video that Yulissa forced Winnie and Christopher to film. After Yulissa passed away. Harold got hold of her phone and body, so he was able to use tliis to trick Abigail.

He wanted to kill and replace Xavier, so he had to understand everything about the latter first.

Nonetheless, revealing himself and liis subordinates during this investigation would be counterproductive, and private investigators were unsuccessful in obtaining specific information about Xavier. Hence, he was using Abigail and Sliania to find out about such insignificant but essential information. These minor details would determine whether he could replace Xavier successfully.

Winnie and Xavier were slightly exhausted after practicing fencing for around an hour.

Nevertheless. Winnie was in a good mood after exercising.

She took off her helmet and walked over to Xavier. It was as though her eyes were fine.

Initially. Xavier wanted to help her. but when he saw how well she was walking, he decided against it.

Winnie felt Xavier's movement and smiled at him. "You really gave it your all today. I'm glad that you didn't hold back."

Placing the helmet and sword down, Xavier hugged Winnie tightly. He uttered in his deep voice. "That's because I know you're strong. A person won't be lenient when faced with a strong opponent. Your determination gives me strength. I know that you will be able to get through any adversities. Tliis is also what you've been hying to tell me. right?**

"Yes. You finally got my point. Let's take a shower before we go to bed. I believe tomorrow will be better." Winnie reached out to touch Xavier's chin and pinched it lightly.

"Indeed. Everything is well when you are with me."

The two went to change their clothes before returning to the mansion hand in hand.

They showered separately as per usual.

When Xavier walked out of the guest bedroom after showering. Winnie was still in the shower.

Xavier started looking at his phone album while waiting for her.

Winnie didn't like having her pictures taken, so Xavier had taken a lot of them now that she couldn't see and stop him.

Since she was stunning in every photo. Xavier decided to make a slideshow of her photos as his screensaver instead of going through the trouble of finding the best photo.

Right after he set his screensaver. Winnie came out of the shower.

Xavier went to get a hair dryer after noticing her hair was dripping with water. He guided her to the dressing table to sit down.

The two chatted as Xavier dried her hair with the hair dryer. The atmosphere in the room was heartwarming.

Winnie climbed onto the bed first after they were done. She made a beckoning gesture with her finger after lying down.

Xavier's heart skipped a heart, and his body tensed.

He placed the hair dryer on the table and made his wray to the edge of the bed. However, he hesitated for a moment before he tightened Winnie's bathrobe, covering her exposed shoulders. Winnie asked in surprise, "Huh? Don't you understand what I'm trying to do?**

"Of course. I do." Xavier pulled her into his aims and planted a kiss on her forehead. "It seems like you're in a good mood today. Is it because of me?"

"Yes. I feel you've also been in a good mood today as you've been treating me just like in the past." As Winnie spoke, her hand sneaked into Xavier's robe.

She lowered her voice. "I actually consulted the doctor secretly today. Apparently, it's fine to have sexual activities. We just need to have proper protection." "Really? You w'on't feel unwell?" Xavier's eyes lit up.

"Wliat do you think? Do I look umvell to you when wre were fencing?"

"No. you wrere ruthless. It wras as if you wrere trying to kill me."

"Get lost! Turn off the lights now!" Winnie said petulantly.

"Fine! Just you wait! How could you tell me to get lost?" Xavier kissed Winnie hard.

Winnie bit Xavier's lips as retribution. "We shall see your performance, then."
