She didn\u2019t want to linger in the awkwardness and quickly stepped into the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>bathroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The next afternoon, on the way back, Michael and Winnie were seen off by diplomats from Naraida who had arrived at the hotel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The men were dressed in deep blue uniforms, looking more like military staff than diplomats.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael watched as Winnie handed over a set of documents, signed and sealed. After inspecting the materials, the men saluted her before allowing their convoy to depart.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael immediately sensed something was off. He grabbed Winnie\u2019s arm. \u201cWhat\u2026 what did you just give them?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>11\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A memory struck him. Winnie\u2019s mother had several state-level patents, including one that was far ahead of anything else in the world, carefully guarded by the Olson family.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Could Winnie have used something like that to exchange for his safe return?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said it\u2019s none of your business,\u201d Winnie replied sharply, frowning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Michael saw the slight hesitation in her expression and felt his suspicion harden. \u201cWinnie, do you even know what you\u2019re doing?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The only thing she could possibly trade was her mother\u2019s legacy. But those technologies weren\u2019t just personal- they involved national interests and the commercial operations of Goldmont City.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie was usually reckless, doing whatever she pleased, consequences be damned. But on matters this serious, Michael could not stand by and let her act so carelessly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m saving you. I\u2019m just returning a favor,\u201d Winnie said coldly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d rather you not owe me anything,\u201d Michael snapped, storming after the people who had just left.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie hurried to keep up, unable to stop him, so she wrapped her arms around his narrow waist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMichael! What are you doing? I\u2019ve already given it to them! Going after them now is useless. We\u2019re not in our own country. Don\u2019t start trouble!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hearing her, Michael\u2019s anger only flared further. He grabbed her arm, spinning her around to face him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinnie! Is nothing in your mind ever serious? Do you intend to live your life recklessly, wandering through it without care?!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>His words came out harsh, unmeasured in the heat of the moment. Michael had grown up with her, understood the lack of love she had experienced as a child, and knew her rebellion was a protective shell. He had always accepted her prickly ways-as long as he wasn\u2019t hurt.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But her selfishness and recklessness in so many matters were something he could not ignore. So he took it upon himself to clean up after her, hoping she would never stray from morality or compassion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 319\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie felt as though icy water had been poured over her, a shiver running through her entire body. Her eyes darkened, and she let out a bitter laugh.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d she snapped. \u201cI don\u2019t care about anything. I act recklessly and ignore the consequences. That\u2019s why I risked everything-using my mom\u2019s outdated technology-to exchange for your sharp words and anger!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She yanked her hand from his grip and hurried to the car. Michael froze.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Outdated technology?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He sprinted after the already moving vehicle, yanked the door open, and slid in beside her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie turned to the window, clearly unwilling to meet his gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs it true?\u201d Michael\u2019s voice softened, carrying a trace of apology. \u201cYou only gave them the old version?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie snorted coldly. \u201cAnd what? Just because you have principles, I have none?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Michael realized how harsh he had sounded and fell silent, ashamed. He had underestimated her-jumped to conclusions without asking a single question.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d he said. \u201cI shouldn\u2019t have spoken to you like that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie didn\u2019t turn to look at him, but her tense shoulders loosened slightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billionaire\u2019s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 319 Advertisement Read Billionaire&#039;s Match By Tangy Candy Novel Chapter 319 \u2013 Love [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[78],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26840","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-billionaires-checkmate-novel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26840","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26840"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26840\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26840"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26840"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26840"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
