Game Over, Mr. CEO: Your Wife Is Done (Winter and Chris) novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207

Chris watched Fabian’s dark green armed helicopter lift into the sky and said into his headset, “Keep eyes on it.”

The moment he finished speaking, he heard a loud pounding of footsteps from the stairway.

He pulled back his icy gaze, turned, and strode over. Winter was standing on the last step when he stopped her.

Chris lowered his eyes and looked at her face. Her complexion did not look good at all. It was nothing like the rosy, healthy color he had seen on her before.

One look told him something was on her mind.

She had probably heard what Fabian said.

Chris frowned at her, his jaw tightening. In a low, hoarse voice, he said coldly, “There’s no such thing as an old…”

But Winter didn’t wait to hear the rest. She ran straight toward the door.

She stopped by the entrance, rose onto her tiptoes, and waved excitedly at the sky.

The commander’s voice came through the headset from the helicopter. “Mr. Xander, a civilian helicopter is heading this way. It’s William Zeller.”

Dominic and Chris both looked up at the same time.

A white helicopter was coming in over the ocean toward the island. Standing by the open cabin door was a tall man in sunglasses and a black hooded puffer jacket, holding up a bright yellow banner pulled tight by the wind.

“Little Winnie, I’m here to take you home!”

The moment Winter read the words, she wanted to laugh, cry, and disappear into a hole all at once.

Then she laughed through her tears.

This was beyond humiliating.

“You’ve got to admit, Winnie’s seriously loved,” Dominic said with a sigh. First Zac had nearly gotten himself killed chasing after her at sea. Then Chris came out of nowhere, took her back from the kidnappers, and blew up the ship.

And now William had come all this way just to bring her home.

Three of the most powerful families had shown up for her.

How was Winter this lucky?

A sudden warmth settled over the top of Winter’s head. She didn’t know what Chris had done, but he took the hat from her hand and put it back on her head. He then let go of her, and turned to walk inside.

From the corner of her eye, Winter caught the shadow of him moving farther away. Her chest tightened for some

reason.

Dominic followed after Chris and lowered his voice. “Jealous?”

Chris’s expression turned even darker. “If you can’t keep your mouth shut, there are still needles and thread left from stitching up Zac. Go sew your own mouth.”

Dominic immediately slapped a hand over his mouth, grumbling to himself. Fine, he was jealous. Why take it out on him?

William jumped down from the helicopter and landed steadily in front of Winter.

He grabbed her by the shoulders and looked her over from head to toe, worry all over his face. “Are you hurt?”

“I’m not hurt. What are you doing here?” Winter looked at his face, now a shade darker than before. He had been filming out in the Northwest, where the days were long and the sun was brutal.
