“You bribed Nancy who’s working for Yara?” Jacinta asked, shocked.

“Yes, Granny. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to get tonight’s setup done by myself.”

It would be difficult for Winnie to do all the setup, such as the blood dripping from the

ceiling and the door that was locked from the outside, in a short time, without the help of

Nancy.

It was ridiculous that Yara thought Nancy was loyal to her, not knowing that she had to live

every day in the terrifying atmosphere that the latter created for her.

“How did you do it? Isn’t she loyal to Yara? How could she be bribed so easily?” Jacinta’s

curiosity was piqued.

Winnie flashed her a faint smile. “Money is all we need to deal with people like Nancy.

There’ll surely be an amount that satisfies her.”

Jacinta lamented, “Really? I guess money does make the world go round. Ha. People can

really do whatever they want with it. Money makes one better than the rest and can buy

love and life.”

As Jacinta spoke, her voice became less audible, and what she said sounded strange.

Winnie even thought that she had heard it wrong.

“What did you just say, Granny?” Winnie felt that her grandmother’s tone and demeanor

became weird as the latter’s words sounded strange and despondent.

“Are you in a bad mood? Why don’t you go to bed earlier?”

“Oh, okay.” Jacinta came back to her senses. “I’m indeed in a bad mood because I thought

of your mom. Let’s go to bed. You should sleep too.”

“Okay,” Winnie agreed and helped Jacinta to get on the bed.

After lying down, Jacinta soon fell asleep.

Yet, Winnie did not feel sleepy at all.

Everything that happened that day kept replaying in her mind like a movie, but the image

that lingered in her mind was Xavier’s red-eyed expression.

D*mn it! Thinking of that, Winnie couldn’t help but curse in her heart.

We’ve divorced. Why do I keep thinking of him? Isn’t it nice to just think of Christopher?

He’s masculine, handsome, and has a great body. Besides, he isn’t so strict and doesn’t

show that kind of unpleasant possessiveness toward me too.

In the end, Winnie did not know when she had fallen asleep. All she knew was that there

were dark circles under her eyes the next day.

After what happened the day before, Hamish directly moved into the company, while Yara

moved to another property of the Garland family.

There were still two housekeepers left in the Garland residence. They avoided Winnie and

Jacinta and did not dare to provoke them in person. They became very well-behaved.

As a result, Winnie became more relaxed when going in and out of the Garland residence.

After she received a text from Nancy, she packed up her bag and went out.

She hailed a taxi and went to another mansion of the Garland family.

At the same time, a black Bentley was secretly tailing the taxi.

Josiah was driving the Bentley with Xavier sitting in the back.

After being asked to follow Winnie, Josiah could not help but complain, “I came to check

your legs early in the morning, but you treat me like a driver. Why are you so heartless?”

Staring at the location tracking interface on his phone, Xavier replied emotionlessly, “You

would’ve to be a driver for more than a day if I were truly heartless.”

Josiah rolled his eyes. “Anyway, the location you gave is so accurate. How did you know

that Winnie would pass through this intersection? Did you put a tracker on her?”

“What else can it be?” Xavier replied righteously.

“Impressive! But, Mr. Xavier, didn’t you just tell me yesterday that both of you are over?

You even pushed her away and told her to leave. It’s only been one night, and you’re

following her!”

“I asked her to leave because I didn’t want to lose control and hurt her.” Xavier finally

looked up and glanced at the back of Josiah’s head. “Just keep your eyes on the road.”

“I am. Can’t I even talk now? I think Winnie is a heartless woman. She’ll definitely not be

as fickle as you. She must have meant it when she said she wanted to cut ties with you.”

“Ha, what a joke.” Xavier let out a cold sneer. “Can she make the call? Did I give my

permission?”

Josiah was stumped, his mind blown by what Xavier said.

“All right. You’re the domineering CEO. You call the shots. Where do you think she’s going?

I hope she’s not going somewhere particularly far. If I continue to drive, I’ll be exhausted.”

Josiah followed the taxi in front and drove all the way to an area full of mansions.

He parked the car in a hidden place overgrown with trees. As soon as he turned off the car

engine, he saw Winnie meet up with a person.

Due to the distance, he could not see who the person was.

Just as Josiah was about to turn around and mock Xavier, he saw the latter had already

started to check out the situation with his binoculars.

Josiah was shocked. “D*mn. I’m so impressed. You have your unique ways of handling

things, whether it’s doing business or chasing women.”

Xavier replied perfunctorily, “Do you want to learn? Too bad this technique doesn’t suit

you.”

“Why?”

“Because you’ll get beaten up.”

Josiah furrowed his brows tightly. “Won’t you get beaten up if Winnie finds out about this?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“Because I’m good-looking.”

“Does Winnie think you’re good-looking?”

“Yes. She admitted previously that she fell for me because of my looks.”

“All right. The desire for food and sex is part of human nature. What about you? What do

you like about her? Her looks? Probably not. You’ve seen so many beautiful girls. I’ve also

never seen you fall for one before.”

Xavier knitted his brows. After a few seconds of silence, he replied, “If I knew why, I

wouldn’t lose control in front of her again and again. Josiah, you can shut up now.”

Fine. Josiah adjusted his glasses.

This is probably what people mean when they say love is of source unknown.

He could not help but wonder if he would be attracted to Winnie if he were Xavier.

Winnie handed the bottle of medicine to Nancy.

“Feed Yara one pill in the morning and one in the evening. For the rest, just follow what I

told you to do. Are there any questions?”

“Umm…” Staring at the medicine in her hand, Nancy felt a little uneasy. “This medicine

won’t cause death, will it?”

Winnie smiled faintly, but it sent a chill down Nancy’s spine.

“What do you think? Didn’t you help Yara pour this medicine into my mom’s mouth more

than ten years ago? Don’t you know what happened to my mom in the end?”

Nancy immediately shut up. She knew exactly what had happened to Lorelei back then.

She gulped nervously and did not dare to look directly at Winnie because she was afraid of

the latter’s revenge.

“So, can I really get the final payment after this is done?”

“Of course. But you should be able to tell that I hate you, so you’d better go far away after

getting the money, or I’m afraid I’ll end you.”

“Got it! I got it! I just want to send my daughter to study abroad after getting the money.

I’ll leave with her and won’t get in your way. I-I was forced back then. I was just an

accomplice at best—”

Winnie cut her off coldly, “Enough. Stop bringing it up. Hurry in. Don’t leave any traces

behind.”

“I got it! There’s one more thing I don’t know if I should say.”

“Go ahead.”

“I was waiting by the window before you came. When you arrived, I noticed a black car

following you over there.”

“Oh, where’s it?”

“Right over there!” Nancy pointed in one direction. “It’s hiding behind those trees. How

sneaky.”

Sneaky, huh?

Winnie narrowed her eyes and walked toward the car in the direction that Nancy pointed.
