Felix spoke for Winnie in this way. He did not like Wendy. After what happened, he disliked her more.
“I see.”
Brian only gave a simple answer.
From grandpa's words, he understood why grandpa did not want Wendy to go his home. He knew what happened to Winnie and was dissatisfied with Wendy's practice.
Brian paused for a moment before he continued.
“Grandpa, can’t I be with Winnie?”
Brian asked. As long as his grandfather said yes, he would immediately end the relationship with Wendy, and tell him that he had a daughter.
This question made Felix silent for a moment, and finally he gave an answer.
“I understand how you feel, Brian. But you have to think about the big picture. You are a man who can do great things and you can't let your emotions stop you. Winnie is a good girl, but she is not suitable for our Bennet family.
Felix also wanted Winnie to do the hostess of the Bennet family, but she did not meet the standards of the hostess of the Bennet family, so he could only give up.
Brian was disappointed again and felt sad. He even had an impulse to abandon everything and live for himself. Emotional problems seemed trivial to grandpa, but in Brian's eyes, it would affect his mood for a lifetime. Without Winnie by his side, he had no sunshine for the rest of his life, only loneliness.
“I gotta go.”
Brian turned to leave, but Felix stopped him.
“Can’t you forgive your father? Do you want to see him alone?”
Felix had been annoyed by that. Winnie would not help and he could only talk to Brian.
“I don't have time to think about it at the moment. I will think about it.”
Brian answered coldly and turned to leave directly.
No matter who mentioned that to him, he could not accept it, expect for Winnie.
Brian took Luke to leave directly. When he sent Luke home, he thought that Winnie would come down to pick him up, but it was Vanessa came down.
“Mr. Bennet, I haven’t seen you for a long time.”
Vanessa greeted him with a sweet smile.
“Yes, long time no see. How have you been?”
Brian slowed down his speech to show his softer side.
“Good, I have no worries and I just need to study.”
Vanessa said casually, but study was not easy.
“Don’t think too much and don’t have any apprehensions. If you need help, you can come to me instead of your sister.”
Brian emphasized.
“Why, are you afraid my sister would be upset?”
Vanessa said jokingly. Seeing that Brian was embarrassed, she realized that she should not say that, but it was too late.
“Is your sister still at work?”
Brian asked about Winnie, which was his most concern.
“No, she works overtime today. Mr. Bennet, I will take Luke up and I have to help him do his homework.”
Vanessa said and took Luke's hand.
“Ok. Thank you for taking care of the two children.”
Now Brian knew that what he owed was not Winnie alone, but Winnie's family, who had paid for two children.
“Good-bye, Brian!
“Bye, Daddy!”
The two said goodbye and left. Brian began to worry about Winnie.
It was late, but Winnie was still working. Could she stand it?.
The next day, as Winnie was working hard in her office, someone knocked at the door.
“Come in.”
Winnie said in a gentle voice.
Stella heard the permission and pushed the door open and saw Winnie who was surprised.
“Why, can't I come and see you?”
Stella said jokingly, smiling like a warm sun.
“Yes, why not. I just did not expect that.”
As Winnie said this, she got up and walked to the door. She saw only Laura outside, so she said with embarrassment.
“Laura, do me a favor and bring me two cups of coffee. Thank you.”
Winnie had been very polite to Laura, and did not change her attitude to Laura because of what had happened.
“Ok, I'll get it for you.”
Laura got up to make coffee.
She was curious about the woman who came to see Winnie, and she could take a look at her when she sent the coffee. That woman's temperament was extraordinary and she was not like ordinary people.
Winnie closed the door and looked back at Stella.
