Daenerys left after dinner, and Winnie wondered how she could find the man who had been injured in
the accident and pay him so she could put the whole thing behind her.
"Mommy, make a call to Uncle, I want to know how Luke is."
Megan had been worried Luke.
"Ok, I will call now."
Winnie quickly picked up the phone and called Brian.
"What is it?”
Brian’s unchanged cold voice made Winnie felt cool.
"Is Luke there?"
Winnie did not want to have too much communication with Brian. She was always afraid that he would
think too much.
"In his room, he's got a phone..."
Brian told Winnie the phone number of Luke's room and then hung up the phone.
Winnie made a call to Luke based on the phone number and the phone was immediately picked up.
"Hello."
Luke's voice was obviously upset.
"Luke, I am Auntie Winwin . I heard from Megan that you are sick."
As Winnie said, she heard the voice of Luke crying.
"Luke, why are you crying? What is wrong?"
Winnie asked eagerly.
"Auntie, I miss you, I miss Megan. May I come to your house now?"
Luke sobbed in a low voice, and he was suppressing his emotions.
"Luke, where are you now? Are you at greatgrandpa's house or at Daddy's house?"
Winnie was worried. She did not know why the kid cried and was depressed. Was he wronged or ill.
"Auntie, I'm at Daddy's house. You talk to Daddy and I'll come to your house."
Luke begged again. His cry and grievances through the phone reached to Winnie's ears.
"Luke, don't cry, I will call dadd now."
Winnie hung up the phone and called Brian again.
"What is it?”
It was still freezing cold.
"You..."
Winnie, with resentment, really wanted to scold this man and make him sober.
He had status and achievements, he could be cold and have authority to his employees, but couldn’t
he be warm to his son and let him feel his father's love?
Winnie endured it and said nothing, afraid that she could not make Luke out.
"Can you let Luke come to my house for a night? Megan misses Luke."
"Now?"
Brian looked at the time. It was already 9 p.m.
"Yes, now. I'll pick him up if it's not convenient for you."
Winnie had a tone of discussion.
"No, it's too late."
Brian refused directly. It was later and he worried about Luke safety.
"Uncle, let Luke come to my house. I miss him."
Megan heard Brian's refusal, took her mother's phone and begged.
"Megan..."
"Uncle, give us your address, Mommy and I will drive to pick up Luke."
Megan did not give Brian the opportunity to refuse but directly interrupted Brian's words.
"Uncle, please. We can go to school together tomorrow morning."
Megan begged, and that sweet voice let Brian can not refuse.
Forty minutes later, Luke was sent to Winnie's house by the housekeeper.
"Auntie......"
Luke walked into the house and directly pounced into the arms of Winnie, crying, which made Winnie
feel distressed.
"Luke, don’t cry, tell me what is wrong."
Winnie squat down and picked up Luke, allowing him to cry on her shoulder.
"Auntie, I didn’t go to school not because I was sick. It was because Mommy beat me."
Luke felt warm in Winnie's arms, cryed sadly, and told the reason for not going to school.
“What?”
Winnie was angry.
She put Luke down and seriously asked the cause of the matter.
“What's the matter?”
"Mommy beat me and was afraid the kindergarten teacher will see bruise on me, so she didn’t allow
me to go to school."
Luke said. He took off his pants and showed bruise on his thighs.
When Winnie saw the child's injury, her heart suddenly felt in pain
"How could she do this, how could she beat a child like this? Is she a biological mother?"
Winnie felt distressed and her tears fell down.
"Mommy keeps hitting me and told me not to tell Daddy. When Dad was on business trip, she locked
me up in a warehouse. No one at home knew I had been beaten, and I never want to see Mummy
again. Auntie, I'm scared..."
Luke’s small body was trembling because of fear. She could imagine he was scared when he was
beaten and locked.
"Luke, don’t cry, I will help you."
Winnie tightly held Luke in arms, giving him warmth.
This was the reason why Luke did not like Mommy, this was the reason why he cried and wanted to
come here.
Didn’t Brian know about it or was he indulgent?
Winnie had to talk withBrian, so as Luke would not encounter such a thing again.
Winnie pacified the child and took him to go to bed withMegan. The two children were lying on the bed.
Winnie applied the medicine to Luke.
"Auntie, don't tell Daddy. If you tell Daddy, mommy will hit me even hearder. Daddy is often away from
home and can't protect me. He is busy and tired. I don't want him to worry about me."
Luke's words let Winnie shed tears.
She could not say a word, buried her head into Luke’s small bosom, sheding tears silently.
Such a small child knew how to care about his father, but his father knew nothing about him, and was
indifferent to the child.
Winnie wanted to slap him to make him sober. Unexpectedly he let his child bear these things alone
that he should not bear.
Winnie calmed herself down after a while and continued to apply Luke with medicine.
After applying medicine on his legs, Winnie checked other parts of his body. Suddenly her attention
was attracted by the birthmark on Luke's arm, and she held her breath.
Winnie stared wide and looked at it again.
There was a shoe-shaped gold ingot birthmark on Luke's left forearm, which was exactly the same as
the Megan's, except that one was on the right forearm and one was on the left forearm.
Winnie felt her mind go blank and stuck there.
"Mommy, what are you looking at? It's time for bed."
Megan reminded Winnie.
"Oh, nothing. You go to bed first."
Winnie had not recovered from the shock, but she could let the children find anything.
Winnie let the children sleep first, leaving a dim lamp, and then went out.
She came to the window of the living room. Looking at the starry sky and thinking of the birthmark on
Luke's forearm, Winnie was distressed.
How could Luke have such a birthmark? Was it just a coincidence? Was his mother his real mother? If
so, why did she abuse her child?
Winnie had a sleepless night.
In the next day, after dropping off two children at kindergarten, Winnie went to work and went directly to
the president's office.
"Brian, Luke will stay with me for two days. You can rest assured that he will never be in danger, and I
will never use the child to seduce you."
Winnie's tone was obviously with dissatisfaction and resentment. She tried to control herself, but it was
really hard. If she hadn’t promissed Luke that she would not tell Brian, she might have been angry now.
"You're not asking for my advice. You're telling me your decision. Winnie, Luke is my child, shouldn’t
you tell me in advance?"
Brian met countless people and he could tell Winnie’s dissatisfaction.
"And, I heard from Lukehe often lived in his greatgrandpa’s. If you are on a business trip, he can stay in
my house, and I will take good care of him."
Winnie ignored Brian's query, and she almost could not control her emotions.
Brian did not speak, but his fundus was cold.
He got up, walked around the desk, took two steps down, and walked to Winniecoldly. With a With a
sudden force, he held Winnie's waist, forcing the two of them to touch each other's chest.
"You..."
Winnie gasped. She really wanted loudly questioned why he treat Luke like that, but for Luke, she
endured it.
"This is your punishment for provoking me. Winnie, Luke is my son, I decide where he lives and how he
lives. You have nothing to do with him. And remember, he's got a mommy, and it's impossible for you to
be his mommy."
Brian said with a sarcastic tone. Being close to each other, the breath he exhaled was cold.
"And if I insist to be his mommy?"
Winnie was impatient and provoked Brian. If she could, she wanted to take good care of Luke more
than anyone. If she could, she would rather be Luke's mommy.
"Dreaming, you are a cheater, you have no qualification to be Luke's mommy."
Brian was infuriated thoroughly. His eyes showed dangerous spirit, as if a male lion saw a prey.
Winnie was stunned. His tone was like Leo’s four years ago, that word "cheater" hurt Winnie's heart.
It seemed that Brian had investigated her and believed that she was a cheater.
"Yes, I am a cheater. Everyone says I'm a cheater, and I don't deny it. But Brian, I want to ask you what
I cheated you, love, money, or you?"
Winnie shouted. Her chest heaved violently because of anger. She was not afraid of Brian's awe-
inspiring and imperious manner. She stare at Brian angrily, however, Brian saw sadness in her eyes.
"I will not be cheated for anything by you. It is you who will suffer."
Brian said maliciously, did not give Winnie any chance to react but directly kissed Winnie.
He held Winnie's waist tightly with one hand and clasped the back of her head with the other. Such a
firm posture would not open the distance between the two people, no matter how Winnie struggled.
"Ah..."
Winnie could not make a sound, but Brian took the advantage and began to explore more deeply.
Winnie seized the opportunity and directly bit him.
Brian hummed in a stuffy voice and then let go of Winnie.
