When Josiah realized he was not supposed to have that type of thought, he drove at lightning speed.

Winnie spoke to him on the way, but he pretended not to hear her.

Of course, she did not have any important topic to discuss, so she kept quiet when the man did not

respond to her.

Winnie silently sat in the back seat, scrolling the news on her phone.

The Newly Appointed Female CEO Of Garland Group Was Arrested At The Northern District’s

International Airport For Possessing Illegal Drugs.

Arrested For Possessing Illegal Drugs. The Reputation Of The Newly Appointed Female CEO Of

Garland Group Is Destroyed Before She Could Even Solidify Her Standing!

The Female CEO Of Garland Group Was Arrested. Two Days ago, She Held The Fiftieth-anniversary

Celebration Of The Garland Family In A High-Profile Manner, Yet She Was Arrested For Drug Use In

The Blink Of An Eye. Is Such A Person Worthy Of Trust?

Quickly swiping through those fake news, Winnie was more amused the more she read it.

The other party wants to ruin my reputation by using such cheap tricks. Are they too confident or too

stupid?

As for the articles written under the exaggerated headlines, Winnie did not bother to read them.

After a while, she received calls from Christopher, Nathaniel, and the assistant Jasmine.

They also saw the news and called in to inquire about the situation.

Nathaniel and Jasmine did not know about Yulissa’s matter, so Winnie did not tell them much. She

managed to fool them with a selective and simple explanation.

As for Christopher, he knew about the drug, and he wanted to help Winnie clarify.

However, Winnie knew he was swamped with work and did not want to take up too much of his time, so

she refused.

Besides, she had not forgotten how Xavier was jealous of Josiah. If Xavier knew that Winnie had

sought Christopher’s help instead of him, he would probably be even more jealous and act up.

After dealing with those calls, Winnie closed her eyes to rest.

When Josiah drove the car into the underground parking garage of Fairchild Corporation, Winnie still

had not woken up.

Along the way, Josiah was quite conflicted internally.

He did not think he had any unusual feelings for Winnie before, but after pondering it earlier, he was in

for a surprise himself.

Josiah regretted that he asked himself that question.

If I blur the boundaries like before, it won’t be as awkward as it is now. Yes, just act like the way I used

to be and treat her as Dumbo. I like to tease her because she’s interesting; she can attract the people

around her naturally.

With that, Josiah quickly convinced himself.

He suppressed the slight restlessness in his heart and used the same teasing tone as before.

“We’re here. Did you really take me as a driver? Do I have to go down and open the door for you

personally?” joked Josiah, but he noticed how silent it was at the back of the car.

Subconsciously, he turned his head and breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing Winnie was just asleep.

“Wake up, Dumbo. We’re here.”

Winnie had been too tired recently, so it was easy for her to fall into a deep sleep. A word or two could

not wake her up at all.

If not for the fact that Winnie still had intractable issues to solve, Josiah even planned to drive the car to

a quiet place with nice air to let her get enough sleep.

Obviously, now was not a good time.

Josiah’s eyes stayed on Winnie’s face for a few seconds. Then, he undid his seatbelt, opened the

driver’s door, and got out.

Opening the car door on Winnie’s side, he stared at her beautiful sleeping face and almost instinctively

touched her head.

In the end, rationality prevailed, and Josiah quickly put his hand on Winnie’s shoulder.

Patting her on the shoulder, Josiah softened his voice and said, “Dumbo, we’re here. Wake up.”

As she was tapped on the shoulder a few times, Winnie slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing Josiah’s face in front of her, she twisted her neck and sat up straight.

“We’re already here? That’s fast. I’ll get down right away.”

Smiling at her, Josiah replied, Relax. You can take it easy.”

“That won’t do.” Winnie bent over to pick up the phone that fell on the leather seat. “If I delayed it some

more time, the entire Garland Group would go crazy.”

Josiah laughed and replied, “I didn’t expect you to think of Garland Group at a time like this.”

“Of course. The current Garland Group is under my name.”

Josiah remained bent over when the two were talking.

From the outside of the car, it seemed as though he was sticking his head in the car, making out with

the person inside the vehicle.

Precisely because of that, Josiah misunderstood the situation.

Before neither he nor Winnie could react, his shoulders were suddenly grabbed by a strong hand, and

then his whole body was overturned.

As the opponent used too much force, Josiah stumbled back a few steps immediately. If he had

balanced himself on time, he might have fallen to the ground.

Winnie could only see the lower half of the perpetrator, as she was seated inside the car.

As she witnessed the entire scene, her face darkened in an instant.

Taking off her high heels, the woman got out of the car, preparing to fight whoever it was. I’m going to

aim at his eyes, so he can’t see anything and can’t fight back.

However, as soon as Winnie got out of the car, she froze in place, holding her heels.

“Xavier? It’s you?”

Xavier frowned, displeasure written all over his face.

He glanced at Winnie, then quickly turned his gaze back to Josiah.

“What were you two doing just now!”

Winnie felt speechless upon seeing how Xavier was acting as if he had just caught them in the act.

Why is this guy suspicious again?

“I fell asleep. He opened the door for me and woke me up. We didn’t do anything!” she helplessly

explained, thinking she had made it crystal clear.

However, Xavier did not seem to buy it. Instead, he extended his hand to Winnie.

“I didn’t ask you. Come behind me!” Xavier uttered protectively.

Amused by his action, Winnie uttered, “Stop messing around. It’s really nothing. You must have

misunderstood. Isn’t Louis following behind you? Ask him what he saw just now. He definitely did not

see anything because nothing that shouldn’t happen had occurred.”

Despite what she said, Xavier did not care. As Winnie did not heed his words, he took the initiative to

pull Winnie behind him.

“Josiah, I want to hear from you. What were you doing just now!”

Rolling his eyes, Josiah replied, “I got out of the car when we arrived and noticed that she hadn’t gotten

down yet, so I opened the door. She was still asleep, and I woke her up. You can look at the

surveillance footage if you don’t believe me.”
