Silly Bride novel (Winnie and Xavier)

“Why don’t you still understand, Christopher? With how things have turned out, it doesn’t matter if I’ll be

scorned or not. What’s important is that adversity reveals who’s a true friend. Isn’t what happened in

the basement that day enough to illustrate your relationship with Winnie?”

Yulissa promptly turned to Xavier and went on, “Do you remember the night you took the needle I shot

at Winnie in the old residential area? Did you see her cry for you? Do you remember how many tears

fell from her cheeks? I think not. However, when it comes to Christopher, she treats him very differently.

She bawled her eyes out for him, so much so that she temporarily turned mute. Not only that, but she

begged me to send him to the hospital and was even willing to kneel in front of me for it. In fact, she

didn’t mind stripping naked in front of my camera for him. “Think about it carefully, Xavier. Did she ever

do something like that for you in the past? I wager not. Do you know what he and that b*tch promised

to each other afterward? They promised to meet again in the next life. Furthermore, she was going to

change her name for him so you can’t find her. She even said that if you aren’t around, she’ll definitely

fall in love with him. You’ve been cuckolded by him, yet you still want to bring him back to the country.

Don’t you think you’re being too merciful to your love rival? Kill him now. Push him off the building.

Then, Winnie will be yours and yours alone.”

“Yulissa White! What are you doing this for? Are you trying to kill me? If you are, please don’t do it by

slandering others!”

“Hah! Who are the ‘others’ you’re referring to, hmm? Trying to shift the blame, are you, Captain

Bennett? Back then, you—”

“Enough! Stop arguing with each other!” Xavier felt as though all the blood inside his body was rushing

to his head. The bickering was frustrating the h*ll out of him.

Christopher was worried Xavier would lose control at any moment due to his emotional instability. Thus,

he stopped speaking to avoid further irritating his friend.

Yulissa wasn’t that kind. Without hesitation, she played the video on her phone and showed it to Xavier.

“You can take a look at the video yourself to see if I’m lying or not. After all, a video isn’t something I

can fake.”

“Scram!” It was already a struggle for him to control his body properly, so he had no interest in watching

that video at all. Instead, he just slapped the phone to the ground.

The rooftop floor was made of solid concrete, which was why the phone instantaneously broke in half

when it landed on the ground.

Witnessing her phone turning into unusable garbage infuriated Yulissa. It was a new one she had

bought, after all.

Changing a phone was a laborious and vexing process. She had to get a new SIM card, reinstall all the

apps she used, and log back into all her accounts. In some cases, she even had to recover the

password. Yet, all that effort was for naught when her new phone was smashed in half.

At that moment, she felt like every step she took in life was a failure, and she still hadn’t done anything

successful yet.

Realizing that aggravated her to no end. Losing her temper, she roared madly at Xavier, “I’m saying

that Winnie doesn’t love you anymore! She has had a change of heart and cheated on you! When you

were thinking about her from far away, she was having sex with Christopher inside the Horton

residence! She hasn’t been a virgin for a long time! You’re a pitiful, pitiful man! When you abandoned

me, you were destined never to find true love in this life again! Did you hear me, Xavier? Winnie

doesn’t love you at all! One day, she’ll work together with Christopher to kill you!”

Xavier’s mental state had already been destabilized by the drug’s influence.

All the nerves in his mind were stretched taut, as though they would break even in the absence of

external disturbance.

To make matters worse, Yulissa had been using the person he cared about the most to provoke him. In

that instant, his psychological defense was entirely shattered.

Like the times before, he abruptly became aggressive when his condition acted up.

Whenever that happened, he would madly throw things around. The first to fall victim to his rampage

this time was Yulissa.

Even after she was fiercely flung to the ground, she was still thinking about Christopher.

As she lay on the concrete floor, she howled at Xavier, “There’s still one more over there! Throw him

too! Toss him off the building!”

While the crazed Xavier couldn’t hear what Yulissa was saying, he did see Christopher behind him.

Without delay, he strode toward Christopher.

On their way into the city, Josiah discovered through the rearview mirror that their car was being

followed and promptly notified Winnie about it.

Glancing backward, she saw two cars preparing to change lanes and overtake them.

“What’s going on?” He frowned. “Are they Harold’s men?”

She glanced backward again. “I think so.”

“D*mn it! This shitty car can’t go faster than them.” There was a burning desire in his mind to tear the

vehicle he was driving into pieces. This crappy car is awful!

Nate couldn’t resist the temptation to glance backward when he spotted how nervous the other two

were. “Are these the subordinates of that person you said is trying to kill you?”

Eyeing him, Winnie replied, “Thanks to you, he’s about to succeed. Don’t blame me if you get killed by

accident. You brought this on yourself.”

He frowned. “I can’t die right now. I still have to meet with her. Where’s your gun? Give it to me.”

“What are you planning on doing?” When Josiah heard Nate asking for Winnie’s gun, he rapidly

shouted, “Don’t do anything stupid, Nate! I’m warning you!”

“Relax. I’m not going to hurt you two. After all, we’re in the same boat right now. Or are you asking her

to shoot at them with her left hand?”

Winnie furrowed her eyebrows and pointed her gun at Nate’s head in response. “There are more below

the seat. Grab them yourself.”

Without further hesitation, Nate bent over and withdrew two guns from underneath the seat.

After he grabbed one that felt handy to him, he poked half of his body out the window and fired a few

rounds. Surprisingly, one of the shots busted a tire on one of the cars.

The car pursuing them was moving at high speed. Therefore, when one of its tires suddenly exploded,

the vehicle started to swerve.

The other car behind it couldn’t decrease its speed in time, so both cars ended up colliding with each

other.

That bought Josiah some precious time. After he drove at top speed for five minutes, he and the others

finally arrived below the tallest building in the city.

They heard the sounds of a helicopter passing by above them even before they parked the car. When

the vehicle finally halted, Nate instantly sprinted into the building.

He was worried Yulissa would leave in the helicopter, which would make it difficult for him to find her

again in the future.

Josiah and Winnie couldn’t leave right away because Rachel was still unconscious inside the car.

Attempting to move Rachel onto his back, Josiah said to Winnie, “Watch out for your hand. I don’t need

your help.”

“Hurry up!” Winnie glanced backward. “Harold’s car is here. They’ll catch up to us soon.”

Of course, he wanted to move quickly. However, the more he panicked, the clumsier he became.

Rachel’s shirt was accidentally stuck when he tried moving her.

In the end, he needed Winnie’s help to shift Rachel onto his back successfully.

To their surprise, the moment they exited the car, Josiah was shot in the calf by Harold.

Consequently, Josiah staggered and almost collapsed on the ground with Rachel.

Winnie rushed to his side to help him up. “Can you still walk?”

He gritted his teeth. “I have to, even if I can’t. Let’s go!”

Nodding, she replied, “I’ll cover you.”

Just as she finished speaking, a heavy object smashed into the roof of their car, causing a loud bang

as a result.

Reflexively, Winnie turned to look at what it was and became utterly stunned.

Josiah wanted to urge her to leave, but he also lost his voice the second he saw who had landed on

the car’s roof.

It was none other than Christopher.

Blood spilled down the sides of the roof for a few seconds before Winnie returned to her senses and

approached him.

“C-Christoph…” She was so bewildered that she couldn’t utter his name in full. “How—What—W-Who

did this to you?”

“X-Xavier…” Blood and tears filled his eyes as he gazed at her. Sadly, before he could complete his

sentence, the grim reaper took him away.

Winnie wanted to send him to the hospital, but Harold and his men were about to reach her.

Josiah snapped back to reality faster than she did and yelled, “We need to go, Winnie! Christopher’s

gone! Let’s go!”

Beads of tears slipped out of her eyes as her mind went blank.

“Let’s go, Winnie! I’m injured, and I still need to carry Rachel! I can’t move without you! Come on!”

She was still a little stunned. What’s going on? Christopher had only recently returned from the brink of

death. How can he…

Despite still being in a daze, she escorted Josiah into the building and all the way to the rooftop, though

she couldn’t recall even a second of that journey.
