Chapter 195

Winter had a good treatment session and then called Xavier. Lately, Xavier had been overwhelmed with work, and Winter’s recent scandal had negatively impacted the Harris family.

Even though their family was small, the internal personnel were complicated. Xavier’s father, Joseph, had managed to climb up with great difficulty. However, Winter’s scandal had caused both him and his father to face criticism from the Hoffman family as well.

Xavier felt embarrassed and could not easily counter the comparisons between himself and Charles, the head of the Hoffman family.

Despite his exhaustion, Xavier followed his father’s instructions to visit Winter. However, Winter had refused to see him. With his pride, Xavier decided to let it be.

He had not expected Winter to call him today. Staring at the phone for a while, he finally answered. “Hello,

“Xavier, are you busy?” Winter’s voice sounded slightly cheerful. Xavier raised his eyebrows, feeling surprised. “Yes, I am busy. What’s up?”

Winter bit her lip. “I’m downstairs at your company. I brought you some food. Can I come up to see you?” Holding the lunch box, she added, “Xavier, this whole situation is my fault. I’ve been feeling down these past few days, so…”

“It’s okay. I was worried about you too.” Xavier rubbed his brows. “Come on up.” He hung up, feeling a bit irritated.

Everyone at Frotconn knew Winter, not just because she was a famous actress but also because she was the fiancée of their young boss. Recently, the employees‘ understanding of Winter had deepened with all the gossip surrounding her scandal. Although not all of it was true, at least half of it likely was.

When Winter arrived at Frotconn, the employees whispered among themselves, discussing her scandalous news.

Pretending not to hear them, Winter forced a smile and greeted the staff, seething inside at their gossiping.

Walking into Xavier’s office area, his secretary stood up quickly. “Ms. Shaw, Mr. Harris has been waiting for you.”

Winter squinted her eyes while smiling. “Thank you!”

Pushing open the door, she said, “Xavier, look what I brought you!”

However, before she finished, Xavier said, “Sit down for a bit. I have some work to finish.”

“Okay.” As she needed his help, Winter understood to be patient. Not familiar with work matters, she watched Xavier focus on his tasks quietly.

After finally finishing his work, Xavier saw Winter jump up. She poured water for him and handed him tissues to wipe his face with. “Xavier, you must be hungry. I made something delicious for you!”

Winter opened the lunch box, handing him the cutlery with a smile.

Xavier’s expression subtly changed as he looked at Winter. Feeling nervous, she asked, “W–What’s wrong?

Don’t you like the food?”

Xavier shook his head. “No, it’s just… You never used to cook. You said the kitchen was too smoky and you didn’t like it.” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He took the cutlery and started eating though he had little appetite.
