All that was left was to wait for the results.

She had initially planned on heading home since Rodunst and Chanaea were neighboring countries,

and the flight would only take a little over two hours.

Xavier, however, rejected Winnie’s suggestion.

On the one hand, he didn’t want her to tire herself out from the traveling. On the other, he wanted to

spend a relaxing time with her.

The pace of life in Avenport was way too fast, especially when compared to Rodunst’s.

Moreover, Winnie and Xavier had already discussed vacation plans after their return from Manchernius.

Alas, they had to postpone the trip because they were worried about Harold showing up to exact

revenge.

Now that the latter was dead, they could finally feel more at ease.

Later that night, the couple stayed in their hotel room and lay on the bed.

“Are there any places in Rodunst you particularly want to visit?” Xavier asked. “Let’s just extend our trip

here and enjoy ourselves.”

Winnie snuggled closer and rested her head on the man’s shoulder. “Yes. My dream is to have a short

stay on their island. I’ll sleep in as much as I want and wake up to sunbathe at the beach. Then, I’ll go

scuba diving in the afternoon and bring back a haul of the freshest seafood. We can have seafood

chowder on one night and paella on the other! When night falls, we’ll settle into our deck chairs and

listen to the wind and the waves… That’s what I had previously planned, anyway. Now that my eyes

are in this condition, I can’t do any of it. Hmm… I guess I could still go for a swim, but given how bad I

am with directions in the water, I’m afraid I might swim further and further away from shore. So, we can

forget about my plans. What about you? Is there anywhere you want to visit?”

“In all honesty, I don’t. I’m happy to go wherever you want to,” Xavier replied as he hugged Winnie.

“You know, other than diving, everything else that you mentioned is perfectly doable… Come on, let’s

do it. I’ll make the arrangements immediately, and you won’t have to worry about a thing. All you have

to do is wait for my freshly caught seafood.”

Upon hearing that, Winnie playfully tweaked his ear. “Really? Are you sure you know how to fish?”

To her surprise, Xavier harrumphed and lightly bit her finger. “Will you stop doubting a man’s ability?

Even if I can’t catch the fish with my hands, I can always try hook fishing. I can also grab slower-

moving creatures like sea cucumbers and abalones. Why are you dissing me anyway? Are you any

good at fishing?”

“Of course not!” Winnie exclaimed before bursting into laughter. “I told you I planned to go fishing, but I

never promised a successful catch. You’re the one making assumptions.”

“You rascal!” Xavier scolded as he pinned Winnie onto the bed. “How dare you make fun of me.”

In return, the latter looped her hands around the man’s neck and pulled him down. “Why not? Didn’t

you say you only want to make me happy? Teasing you brings me a lot of joy, so that should please

you, shouldn’t it?”

“Of course! I’m happy as long as you are!” Xavier said as he inched toward Winnie. “I can make you

even happier in a while…”

Knowing what the man was hinting at, Winnie deliberately dodged him and breathed, “Sure. But

tonight, I want you to submit to me.”

“Is that so?” Xavier replied, his voice deep and husky. “Hmm… Looks like you want to be on top, huh?

Bring it on, then. Show me what you’re capable of.”

“Just wait and see…” Winnie teased before getting up to straddle Xavier.

As the latter fixed a fiery gaze on her face, Winnie slowly pulled out the sash on her nightgown and

wrapped it around his eyes.

Alas, just as Winnie had pushed Xavier onto the pillow, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Xavier furrowed his brows instantly while Winnie halted her movements.

When the doorbell continued ringing with no signs of stopping, Winnie had no other choice but to get

off of Xavier. “Go see who’s at the door. There aren’t many people who know we’re staying here, so it

might be Lisanne looking for me. Put your clothes on before you head out.”

Despite his frustration, Xavier gave a soft grunt of begrudging acknowledgment and sat up.

As he removed the sash from his eyes and put it back on Winnie’s nightgown, the sulky man grumbled,

“Of all the times to show up, why now?”

“Haha! You must’ve really looked forward to my performance, huh?” Winnie said with a smirk.

“Of course! But if it really is Lisanne ringing the bell, I’ll have even more to look forward to. Wait here.

I’ll get the door.”

With that, Xavier grabbed a blanket and wrapped it around Winnie.

The latter smiled and gently nudged him. “Hurry up. Don’t keep them waiting.”

“Understood!” Xavier exclaimed. In the blink of an eye, he had put on his clothes and strode toward the

door.

With the man gone, Winnie quickly dug out a fresh set of clothes to change into.

Even if it’s Lisanne at the door, I still have to be dressed appropriately!

However, it didn’t take long before Xavier’s voice rang out. “Lucas? What are you doing here? Did your

sister send you?”

“No. She’s busy,” Lucas replied. “How’s Winnie? Is she resting now?”

Although Xavier knew Winnie and Lucas were best friends, he was ticked off that the man had dropped

by so late to see his wife.

“Yes,” Xavier said coldly. “We’re getting ready to go to bed. Whatever it is you want to say will have to

wait till tomorrow!”

“Tomorrow? What are your plans for tomorrow, then?”

“Why are you asking that?”

“Can’t I ask?”

Meanwhile, Winnie had had enough of the men’s pointless conversation. Since she was already all

dressed up, she decided it’d be best to walk out and meet her friend.

Upon hearing the woman’s footsteps, Xavier hurriedly walked over and wrapped his arm around her

waist, showing Lucas that Winnie belonged to him.

However, Lucas pretended not to have noticed Xavier’s petty move and merely smiled at Winnie. “Ah,

looks like you haven’t gone to bed. Sounds about right, though. After all, when have you ever gone to

bed early?”

Winnie couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Lucas. “How dare you act like you haven’t done anything

wrong? If you hadn’t been ringing the doorbell like some maniac, we’d have been asleep by now… So?

Why are you looking for me?”
