How to Train Your Ex-Billionaire novel Chapter 69

Winifred glared at him furiously. “Yvan, get out!”

Her face was slightly flushed, her brows furrowed, but her anger had no intimidating effect. Yvan just found her adorable.

He suddenly reached out and pinched her puffed-out cheek, a smile playing on his lips. “Don’t be angry. How about you get me a drink? What do you have?”

He walked straight to her refrigerator and started looking inside as if he owned the place.

Winifred was momentarily stunned.

He used to do that all the time; he loved to pinch her cheeks.

Forcing herself out of the memory, Winifred strode over and slammed the refrigerator door shut. “I don’t want to give you anything to drink. Yvan, if you don’t leave right now, I’m calling the police.”

Yvan stuck his hands in his pockets, looking like a complete rogue. “Go ahead. I know people at the police station.”

“Yvan, you…” Winifred was so angry that her eyes suddenly welled up, and tears began to fall against her will.

Seeing the tears roll down her face, one by one like pearls, Yvan finally panicked.

She might have a gentle nature, but she rarely cried. The last time he had seen her cry was in bed, and he had kissed the tears from her face.

“Winifred… I’m sorry.” He reached out to wipe her tears but hesitated, afraid she would reject him. Seeing a box of tissues on the table, he pulled out a couple and offered them to her.

Winifred didn’t take them, just continued to cry silently.

Yvan’s heart completely melted. “Okay, I’ll go. I’m leaving right now.”

He opened the door, glanced back at Winifred, and then closed it behind him.

Winifred watched the door close and then sank weakly onto the sofa, staring into space.

She wanted to stay away from him, but he just kept getting closer.

Just then, a message came through on her phone. She opened it. It was from Karen.

Karen said she had a three-day holiday for New Year’s and would be coming back for a visit. She wanted Winifred to come home too, so the family could have a meal together.
