“There’s no need for that.” Xavier noticed that the two were telling the same thing. Moreover, their

clothes were still neat. Hence, the doubts in his heart immediately dissipated.

Xavier took the initiative to pat Josiah’s shoulder. Frowning, he apologized, “I’m sorry. I was too

nervous just now. You know that she’s mentally challenged, right? That’s why she always gets bullied

outside. She’s my woman, so I hope that I can protect her well.”

Josiah said, “It’s fine. I understand. But then, there’s something I feel that you should know.”

“What is it?”

“She’s not mentally ill at all. Do you still not see it now?”

Xavier frowned. He glanced at Winnie before looking at Josiah again. “Do you know what you’re talking

about? I remember you took the exam yourself when you were applying for your doctor’s license. Why

are you so unprofessional now?”

Josiah was rendered speechless for a moment. “Fine. We can take it slow. After all, there’s still plenty

of time left.”

“That’s true.” Winnie looked at Josiah. “Let’s do it step by step.”

After saying that, she turned to ask Xavier, “By the way, why are you here? Are you going out?”

“Yes.” Xavier held her hand, grabbing it tightly. “I planned to go and see you initially.”

Winnie shot him a glance. “Didn’t I ask you to stay in the office and wait for me?”

“Are you telling me what to do now? I’ve waited for you for quite some time, but you didn’t show up.

Can’t I go out to find you?” Xavier retorted.

“Of course you can!” Winnie didn’t want to argue with him. “Hurry up and go up. I need your company’s

Public Relations Department to help me with something.”

With that said, the group of people walked toward the elevator. Xavier held Winnie’s hand tightly

throughout the time.

While they were walking, Winnie received a text message on her phone. She wanted to reply to the

message, so she withdrew her hand from Xavier’s to type her reply.

Before she could finish replying, Xavier took over her hand again.

This time, he was no longer satisfied with holding her hand anymore. He interlocked his fingers with

hers.

Moreover, he even lifted Winnie’s hand to plant a kiss on the back of her hand.

If that had happened in the past, Josiah would not feel anything even if he had had to watch the two flirt

with each other for a long time.

However, now that he realized he had some feelings for Winnie, he started finding it hard to look at how

close the two were.

“Hey, can you stop showing off? There are still two single men here!”

Xavier didn’t even take Josiah’s words seriously. “Just bear with it.”

Josiah shoved Xavier lightly, scolding, “You’re so cruel!”

After walking into the elevator, Xavier pressed the button for the first floor.

Seeing that, Josiah glanced at Xavier suspiciously. “What are you doing? Don’t tell me that you’ve

forgotten which floor your office is at.”

Having said that, he reached out his hand, attempting to press the button to the eighteenth floor.

Nevertheless, Louis quickly stopped him in time. With a bright smile, he said, “Dr. Houghton, Mr. Xavier

knows what he’s doing.”

“Really?” Josiah withdrew his hand.

However, he couldn’t help but glance at Winnie.

The two exchanged glances for a second. Then, Winnie shook her head, indicating that she didn’t

know what Xavier was planning to do next.

The elevator was small. Moreover, the four of them were the only people inside. Naturally, Xavier

noticed the nonverbal interaction between Josiah and Winnie.

Usually, he wouldn’t be bothered by such a thing. He would also not interrogate any of them in front of

everyone.

Nevertheless, Xavier was feeling jealous at the moment, so he was extra sensitive. Immediately, his

face turned as dark as coal. “What are you guys doing? How dare you guys flirt in front of me! Am I

transparent to you?”

Winnie was rendered speechless.

Josiah tried to explain, “Xavier, you’ve misunderstood us. I can explain to you.”

“Explain?” Xavier knitted his brows. “Do you know I treat you like my brother?”

“I know. That’s why—”

“Shut up!” Winnie noticed that the two were going to start an argument, so she let out a sigh internally.

Frowning, she looked at Xavier. “It’s better for you to stop talking.”

After saying that, she grabbed his tie and pulled him closer to her. Then, she leaned forward and kissed

him on his lips forcefully.

Let’s see whether you can still talk now! This guy is so relentless! How can he stop acting like this? I’ll

show him what I can do to stop him from talking!

Seeing that, Louis was dumbfounded.

Josiah quickly fell silent. Suddenly, he felt an unexplainable emotion stirring up within his heart. He was

reluctant to watch them kiss any longer.

Just when Winnie was focusing on keeping Xavier’s mouth shut, the elevator door opened.

They had arrived at the first floor.

Many reporters gathered outside the elevator at that moment. It turned out that they were all waiting for

the elevator.

There had been a major change to the higher-ups of Fairchild Corporation recently. Moreover, Stuart

had lost all his power. Hence, Fairchild Corporation held a press conference on purpose for that.

The reporters who gathered outside the elevator at the moment were all there for the press conference.

In fact, the reporters were well aware that the Public Relations Department of Fairchild Corporation had

spent a long time preparing for that press conference. Therefore, they knew there would not be any

issues with the press conference.

Unexpectedly, they witnessed such a shocking scene while waiting for the elevator.

What? The CEO of Fairchild Corporation is kissing a woman in the elevator? Oh my goodness! How

can they do this in public?

In an instant, all the reporters lifted their cameras to start taking pictures of the people inside the

elevator.

Initially, Winnie wanted to end the kiss quickly. However, Xavier kissed her more aggressively when

she was about to pull herself away, rendering them to end up in such an awkward situation.

Winnie couldn’t help but mumble to herself in her heart. I wasn’t aware there would be so many

reporters on the first floor…

However, she had been through many uncountable trials and tribulations in her life. Therefore, she

knew how to stay calm in front of crowds and cameras well.

The next moment, Winnie took out her handkerchief casually and wiped the corner of her mouth. Then,

she wrapped one of her arms around Xavier’s while lifting another hand to wave at the reporters.

The reporters were rendered speechless. It turns out that this woman is Winnie Garland. No wonder

she looks so calm, as expected of the female CEO of Garland Group!

However, some of the reporters reacted quickly. They asked, “Greetings, Ms. Garland. There are

rumors that you got detained in the police station in Northern District as you were involved in drug

smuggling. Do you have anything to say about that?”

Winnie curled her lips into a faint smirk. “If I really were detained in the police station, then who’s the

one standing in front of you guys now? Rumors stop with the wise. I hope you guys won’t get led or

fooled by those with ulterior motives.”

“In that case, is the video on the internet true, Ms. Garland? Did you really get sent to the police

station?”

Before Winnie could say anything, Xavier took a step forward and shielded her.

He glanced at the reporter who asked that question with an icy-cold gaze. Furthermore, he also exuded

a terrifying, dangerous aura around him.

Noticing Xavier’s gaze, the reporter felt a chilling terror creeping over him. Just when he thought that

Xavier was going to chase him out, Xavier said with a solemn tone, “Please address her as Mrs.

Fairchild. As for the video of my wife on the internet, I’ll give you guys an answer during the press

conference later. Now, please go to the conference hall and wait patiently.”
