Chapter 25

Winnie‘s heart skipped a beat.

Her acting had been flawless, considering no one in the family had noticed anything odd about her. Is a laptop really going to ruin my plans?

There was a brief silence before she marched toward Xavier angrily. “Hmph! How can you take away my toys, Handsome?”

“Toys?” Xavier was getting irritated, but he wasn‘t sure why. “What kind of toy is this?”

Her mouth opened, but she didn‘t have the words she wanted to say. This erpression of his... He looks as though he got angry after being played for a fool. Hasnt he been pretending to be in a coma when I married into this family? Were boih lying. None of us is better than the other. The only difference is that Ive been lying to him for far longer.

That line of thinking made her feel justified to face him properly.

Thus, she withdrew the innocent look in her eyes.

Just as she was going to lift her arms and act like her authentic self, she realized Xavier wasn‘t talking about the laptop hiding in her luggage

He was talking about the two photos in his hand.

Holy cr*p! I almost revealed everything because of two mere photos! That revelation made her feel as though she was about to crack open.

Thankfully, her reaction speed was fast. Without delay, she prétended to be stupid again and snatched the photos away before protecuing them in her embrace. These are my two other Handsomes. You can‘t take them from me.”

Xavier‘s scowl intensified, especially when he saw how much Winnic treasured those two pictures. “Don‘t you only have one Handsome, me? Why are there two more?”

With a pout, Winnie stuffed the photos into her collar. These two… are from Granny‘s place. Indeed, I have two more. You‘re not the only one.”

In an instant, he felt as though he had been cheated on. It didn‘t help that she put those two pictures in front of her chest.
