All Chapters of Game Over, Mr. CEO: Your Wife Is Done: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Dominic was so shaken by Chris’s suspicion that his expression changed instantly.“You’re serious?”Who would have the nerve to do something like that? To poison Mrs. Xander Sr.?Everyone knew Mrs. Xander Sr. had been kind and gentle. She was known for her good temper, her generosity, and all the charity work she did. She had never been harsh with the staff, either. The day she passed away, everyone in the Xander household had cried.Dominic had spent a lot of time at the Xander estate when he was growing up. Whenever he wore himself out playing and got sleepy, Mrs. Xander Sr. would scoop him into her arms and joke that he ought to become her grandson too. Even after he grew up, she would still call him over to eat with her from time to time.Even now, he still felt weighed down whenever he thought about her death. He had never really gotten over it.So when Gavin told him Mrs. Xander Sr. had refused to let Winter appear at her funeral, Dominic’s feelings toward Winter had become

Dominic opened the car door with his keys and casually tossed them into the console. He was just about to start the engine when something in the corner of his eye made him jerk.“Holy... Winter!” He clutched his chest, his heart pounding.“Drive.”Winter was curled up low in front of the passenger seat, her dark hair falling around her face, her red-rimmed eyes fixed on him. Her expression was blank.For a second, he thought he had seen a ghost. She had scared the life out of him.Dominic usually never locked his car doors, and this time she had taken full advantage of that.“Drive,” Winter said again, her face set.She was trying to sound tough, but with that pale, bloodless face, she looked more heartbreaking than scary.Thinking back to what had happened that morning, Dominic frowned. He had always seen Winter as a younger sister, and he felt sorry for her.His tone softened. “I can’t take you out of here.“For starters, I’m no match for Chris. And I’m not going to go behi

After dinner, Chris did exactly what he had promised and gave her Mrs. Xander Sr.’s photo album.Late that night, Winter curled up in one corner of the sofa with the album Mrs. Xander Sr. used to look through all the time before she died, turning the pages one by one.It felt as if time had gone backward. She could almost see herself tucked into her arms, looking through the album with her.Mrs. Xander Sr. had told her stories about her younger days, about how she and Mr. Xander Sr. had met, and how she had pushed that stubborn man, who loved her more than he ever admitted, into marrying her. She had told her stories about Chris’s parents too.When she was alive, she often said Winter reminded her of herself when she was young. Maybe that was why she had always loved her a little more fiercely.Winter missed her so much.Suddenly, the album was pulled from her hands, and Chris’s cool, low voice followed.“It’s late. Look at it tomorrow.”Her hands fell empty, but she didn’t try

The private guards slipped quietly back into position around the house. Chris went up the steps as one of the bodyguards opened the front door for him.A gust of cold wind swept inside, stirring the heavy curtains across the room.By the window, Skyla looked up abruptly from the book in her hands. Her palm was wrapped in gauze from the scrape she got that morning when she fell out of her wheelchair.The second she saw Chris, fear and relief washed over her face. Her voice caught as she said, “Chris, thank God you came.”Sean really was capable. He had actually found this place.Her wheelchair rolled forward until she stopped in front of him. “When I saw all those people outside just now, I really thought Sean was going to take me away.“When can I go back to Westbury? This place is beautiful too, but I still like it better there.“I have a feeling I’m not going to sleep tonight. I’m not used to sleeping in a new place.”But when she saw how cold his face was, the bit of relief

Two hours earlier, as Winter held General in her arms, she caught the reflection in his eyes, and an escape plan flashed into her mind.The two computers in the study had been cut off from the internet. Chris was never going to give her a chance to use them to call for help.She knew that once William woke up and realized she was missing, he would call her. When she didn’t answer, he would start looking for her.But instead of waiting for someone else to save her, she would find her own way out.She didn’t want to stay here one more day.The only problem was that the plan would be difficult to pull off. One wrong move, and she would be caught. Then everything would be over.Blackwood Manor was too large. She needed a car if she wanted any real chance of escaping. Otherwise, she would be dragged back before she even made it past the gate.But Gavin had already collected all the car keys at Blackwood Manor. No one was getting them from him.Still, one thing worked in her favor. C
