Chapter 20
Winnie halted subconsciously and started to back away from the bathroom.
As Josiah‘s voice rang out from the other end of the line, the sound of rushing water stopped.
As it turned out, Xavier had already dialed Josiah‘s number before entering the bathroom. It was just that the call was only picked up then.
Because the phone was in speaker mode, Josiah‘s voice sounded loud. “What‘s the matter, Xavier? Why are you calling me at such an hour? Don‘t you need to accompany Winnie?”
Xavier‘s tone was filled with impatience when he said, “I need you here right now. I‘ve been drugged.”
Stunned, Josiah spluttered, “W–What? Drugged? What have you been drugged with? Was it some kind of aphrodisiac?”
Xavier couldn‘t be bothered to explain the whole story to him, so he said, “Yes! So come over right this instant!”
“All right, all right! I‘ll be there right away! If you really can‘t hold it in, dunk yourself in cold water to calm yourself. Wait for me!”
The call was hung up after that. Soon after, the sound of rushing water sounded again.
Winnie knew at once that Xavier was preparing a cold bath.
But the weather‘s so cold now! Not to mention his body‘s burning... Won‘t the extreme change in temperature damage his body? Is Josiah a quack doctor or something? Besides, there‘s a more direct and easier way to solve this...
At that thought, a smile tugged on Winnie‘s lips, and she stepped into the bathroom once more.
This time around, she pulled the glass door open and walked in without hesitation.
Upon seeing Winnie, Xavier stiffened. “What are you doing coming in here? Get out.”
Winnie widened her eyes to stare at him, her face full of innocence. “Handsome, why are you wearing pants while taking a bath? And why isn‘t there any steam coming from the water?”
Xavier did not expect that she would barge in like that after all the effort it took for him to refrain from touching her. He growled, “Get out now. Didn‘t anyone teach you not to come in when people are taking a bath?”
