Brian had been perturbed this day, but he was secretly happy.
Since he left in the morning, he had turned on his cell phone's location function. He knew where his car went from the hilltop villa.
He didn't have time to check his phone during the morning meeting. Only now, back at the office, did he have time to check his phone's location.
Oddly, his car was driving downtown from the police station.
Police station? Why did Winnie go to the police station? To see who? Penny?
Brian followed Winnie's route with doubts, until he was sure that she was driving in the direction of the building of Bennet Group. He then felt relieved.
Brian opened the drawer and took out his one-of-a-kind gift, then put it in his pants pocket.
Looking at Winnie bit by bit got close to the Bennet Group, Brian got more and more excited.
Seeing that Winnie's car was about to arrive at the parking lot, Brian arranged himself and took the exclusive elevator to the first floor.
Winnie parked her car, straightened herself up in front of a mirror, opened the door and got out.
Winnie walked toward the door of the Bennet Group and saw Brian walking toward her. He was still handsome, tall and cold.
But there was tenderness in his cold eyes. And the radian in his mouth meant something.
As Winnie walking slowly to him, a clear and pleasant voice was heard.
"Brian..."
At the same time, Brian heard the voice. He followed the voice and his face stiffened when he saw the voice's owner.
"Brian..."
The woman again intimately called him and ran to him.
At this time, Winnie watched a sexy and enchanting woman running into the arms of Brian. She hugged Brian tightly and they seemed to be very close.
Winnie stopped and looked at the unfolding love drama.
"Wendy......"
Brian's words reached Winnie's ears and she realized that the woman was Wendy.
At the moment of hearing the name of Wendy, Winnie heard the sound of her heartbreak.
She finally knew why Brian asked her to come here. He wanted her to see with her own eyes how much love they had, so that Winnie could give up. He wanted to tell her he loved Wendy, not her.
It seemed that she had said something she shouldn't have said last night when she got drunk. It seemed that what she said brought burden to Brian and made him have a crisis. Now he wanted her to see this, so that she would not disturb his life.
Well, since it was so obvious, there was no reason she could refuse.
After Winnie took a last look at Brian with a deathly gray face, she turned and walked toward the car. She told herself that they would be strangers from now on.
She walked over to the car, put the keys on it, and sped away.
Looking at Winnie left, Brian's heart was hurt like a knife cut and he could not breathe.
He did not have time to say the prepared words to Winnie, did not have time to give her the unique gift and now he watched her turn to leave.
He had prepared everything but did not expect that Wendy would suddenly appear.
Brian stretched out his hand to make Wendy leave him, and looked at Wendy with a serious expression.
"Why did you come back? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?"
"I want to surprise you? I said I would not come back, but I show up all of a sudden, you must be happy. Brian, is it a surprise to see me?”
Wendy looked at Brian with a sweet smile on her face and thought her surprise was perfect.
But it was not. Her return upset everything that Brian had arranged.
"What's the matter? Why don't you talk? Did I make you angry by saying I wouldn't come back? But I am happy if you're angry. It proves you care about me."
Wendy complacently said, but she was flurried in mind.
She wanted to go to Brian's office to give him a surprise, but she saw Brian as she got off. But it was clear that Brian wasn't in the parking lot for her.
For whom if not for her? There was love in his eyes and smile on his face.
Brian took Wendy back to his office. That Wendy took the exclusive elevator holding the arm of Brian was seen by the company's employees, instantly it was spread throughout the company.
"Wendy, have you dealt with everything?"
Brian was still serious, but he was not happy, especially when he thought of Winnie’s sad eyes. His heart bled as he thought of her eyes.
He and Winnie were so close together, so close that even if Wendy came back, it would not change the fact. But she left sadly before he could say a word.
Why didn't he catch up with her and give her a hug and a word of comfort? Why just watched her leave? When would they meet again?
"Yes, and I'll be right here, following you wherever you go, and staying by your side for the rest of my life. Brian..."
Wendy said while came to Brian. She wanted to hold his hand, but Brian avoided it. Was it repulsive of her touch, or was it inadvertent?
"Wendy, you shouldn't joke like that. I've cancelled the wedding preparations. Everything is... Never mind, you must be tired. I'll send you home. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Brian was in no mood to chat with Wendy to discuss things between them. He was so confused that he didn't know what to do.
