Winnie got up to stop Daenerys.
"Daenerys, it's inconvenient to live in your house. Megan is naughty and she will spoil the rest of your parents. I'll settle here tonight, and tomorrow I'll move to Vanessa’s house."
Winnie rebuffed Daenerys's kindness.
"Don't you have a tenant in that house? How can you go back and live with your child?"
"Never mind, I will talk to the tenant tomorrow to give me a room."
For the time being all things were not sure, Winnie could only make do with it.
"Ok, have a talk with the tenant. If it doesn’t work, I will think of other way."
Daenerys knew she would fail to persuade Winnie and she could only temporarily compromise.
Daenerys continued.
"I will think a way for Megan’s Kindergarten. Don't worry too much about your work. You are a talented person with multiple fields. You can find a job."
"Your are good at software, but it was only limited to mobile phones, right?"
Daenerys suddenly remembered something and said.
"As long as software is used, I can do it except for games and military. I am not only good at software, I am good at the phone including the appearance design."
Winnie was not modest, because she has researched more software than she thought, because the mobile phones she degined had won international awards.
"Amazing. I don’t know you are so good. Our company is working on a new type of surgical probe, and we need someone with software skills. I recommend you."
Daenerys said pleasantly. Winnie was capable, but Brian lost her.
"No need to recommend, I have a finished product in hand, I can sell it to your company if it is ok."
Winnie's words once surprised Daenerys.
"Okay, great. If this partnership works, I'll get a promotion. Thank you very much! You're great, I'm proud of you. I should have told you sooner. What else do you have, let me sell it for you..."
Daenerys obviously was not calm because of continuous surprise. Winnie didn’t need to find a job, she could earn a lot of money by selling software.
Winnie was not passionate as Daenerys. She did not know if Brian would intervene or drive her out of the city.
Luke returned home and felt relieved when he fould Brian sitting on the sofa in the living room.
"Daddy, mommy, I'm home."
"Here comes my son. I miss you."
Penny came forward warmly, but there was no sincerity in her eyes.
"I miss you too, Mommy."
After Long time of oppression, Luke had to learn to face reality.
"Dear son, live here these days and let me be close to you."
Penny stood with her back to Brian. Her voice was gentle, but her eyes were cold and sharp.
"Ok, Mommy. Mummy, I'll go upstairs and change. I'll be down in a minute."
Luke hurried to find an excuse to go upstairs. Daddy was at home today, so he was temporarily safe. But looking at mommy's dangerous eyes, Luke shivered all over.
Luke went upstairs. As he put down the bag, Brian pushed the door open and walked in.
"Daddy."
Luke greeted with Brian and put the bear toy Winnie sent him on the bed.
“Where did you get it?”
Brian asked in a deep voice.
"My teacher gave me as a reward for my good behavior in kindergarten today."
Luke had to lie to Brian, because he quarreled with Winnie last night. If he told the truth, he was afraid that Daddy would get unhappy and throw the bear toy out.
"Luke, did you see WinwinAuntie after school today?"
Brian asked in a cold voice.
"Yes, she told me to be good when I came home. She also said that I could call her if I missed her in the future. Daddy, can't I go to her house in the future?"
Luke asked in a timid manner. He was very afraid of daddy, so he spoke carefully and dared not act like other children.
But Daddy was his idol, because Daddy was so successful, because Daddy was so powerful, like Superman, like Spider-Man. It would be better if Daddy treated him gently.
"No. Auntie doesn't work in our company and will leave the city soon."
Thinking of Winnie, Brian was angry but wanted to ask. He wanted to know how long Winnie could endure.
"Daddy, I like Auntie. She is really good to me, I can feel it. Daddy, why did you quarel? Why are you being so mean to her? Can't you get along well?"
Luke built up his courange when he found that Brian did not show a cold face. He didn't want Daddy and Auntie to have a problem, because he liked both of them.
"Never mind adult's business."
Brian's voice had a temperature, but the temperature was low.
"Daddy, Megan and I had grown up now. Your quarrel will affect our mood. Megan likes you very much. Because you are too cold, she is afraid of you. Daddy, Megan and Auntie are girls, we must be good to them."
Luke said and deliberately mentioned Megan, because Daddy was gentle to talk to Megan every time. He was gentler to her than to Luke.
This was enough to prove that Daddy liked Megan. He hoped Daddy would not quarrel with Auntie for the sake of Megan.
"Luke, how dare you teach me?"
