Chapter 195
Winter had a good treatment session and then called Xavier. Lately, Xavier had been overwhelmed
with work, and Winterâs recent scandal had negatively impacted the Harris family.
Even though their family was small, the internal personnel were complicated. Xavierâs father,
Joseph, had managed to climb up with great difficulty. However, Winterâs 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 fatherâs 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.
âHello,
âXavier, are you busy?â Winterâs voice sounded slightly cheerful. Xavier raised his eyebrows, feeling
surprised. âYes, I am busy. Whatâs up?â
Winter bit her lip. âIâm downstairs at your company. I brought you some food. Can I come up to see
you?â Holding the lunch box, she added, âXavier, this whole situation is my fault. Iâve been feeling
down these past few days, soâ¦â
âItâs okay. I was worried about you too.â Xavier rubbed his brows. âCome on up.â 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 employeesâ 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 Xavierâs office area, his secretary stood up quickly. âMs. Shaw, Mr. Harris has been
waiting for you.â
Winter squinted her eyes while smiling. âThank you!â
Pushing open the door, she said, âXavier, look what I brought you!â
However, before she finished, Xavier said, âSit down for a bit. I have some work to finish.â
âOkay.â 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. âXavier, you must be hungry. I made something delicious for
you!â
Winter opened the lunch box, handing him the cutlery with a smile.
Xavierâs expression subtly changed as he looked at Winter. Feeling nervous, she asked, âWâWhatâs
wrong?

Donât you like the food?â
Xavier shook his head. âNo, itâs just⦠You never used to cook. You said the kitchen was too smoky
and you didnât like it.â
He took the cutlery and started eating though he had little appetite.
