They cooked fast and the dinner was ready in no time.
There were a lot of food and it was an extravagance for three.
"There are a lot of good, we can’t finish them. If only Uncle and Brother Luke are here."
Megan said and air was still.
"Brother has a good meal today, you don't have to worry him."
Winnie said.
What was going on with Megan? She recently always said something she shouldn't say and often
mentioned Brian.
If she did something wrong before, as long as Winnie corrected it, Megan will not make the same
mistake. But on the problem of Brian, she made mistakes repeatedly and never changed.
"Mommy..."
Megan continued, and Winnie quickly interrupted her.
"Megan, Uncle Leo cooked this for you. It is getting cold, have it."
She could not lecture her directly, so she could only be in euphemism.
Fortunately, Megan understood her meaning.
"Thank you, Uncle, I will have it. Uncle, Mommy, eat."
Megan said, with her dark eyes turning.
Uncle Leo was really nice, but she didn't know why she just liked the cold Uncle Brian.
The embarrassment was finally lifted. When they had dinner happily, the voice of the door was heard.
"It must be Uncle and Brother."
Megan ran out excitedly.
A few seconds later her more excited voice was heard.
"Brother, Uncle, you are back. We are having dinner. Come and join us."
Megan could not restrain her excitement. In the few hours separating with Luke, she felt it was like a
long day.
"I'm hungry."
Luke said excitedly.
"Hello, Uncle."
Megan remembered that Mommy had told her that she could not cause trouble to Uncle. Megan had to
converge her mood and said hello politely.
"Luke, you are back."
Winnie came over, and she was happy to see Luke.
"Auntie, I'm back."
Luke excitedly threw himself into the arms of Winnie.
But Brian fixed his eyes on Leo with a dark face.
When Winnie opened the door, he saw a pair of men's shoes by the door, which made him angry. After
knowing that it was Leo, he became furious.
"Hello, Mr. Bennet."
Leo greeted him.
"Hello."
Brian had to endure his anger. He couldn't be rude with children here.
"Have you had dinner? Would you like to join us?"
With Leo here, Winnie could not ask Brian to leave, so she could only ask him to stay for dinner, while
she hoped Brian refused.
She had seen his cold face and his hidden anger, but she did not care about it. He did that to anyone.
"Auntie, we haven’t had dinner yet. We are hungry. Let's eat together."
Brian was silent. Luke’s stomach was grumbling.
Luke walked toward the table, and Megan went to Brian, stretched out a small hand to hold his warm
hand.
"Uncle, come in and eat together. If you don't eat, you will be hungry, and you'll get sick."
Megan’s eyes were sincere with expectation.
Brian could not refuse to this soft sweet voice, so he chose to stay.
He squatted down, kissed Megan's little cheek, picked her up and walked toward the dining table.
Winnie took a deep breath and turned around. She found Leo was speechless too.
She whispered.
"Sorry."
"It doesn’t matter, it is lively."
It was true that it was lively with many people, but he did not want Brian to be here, but he could not
say that out.
Together, Winnie and Leo walked to the table, where the others had already sat down.
"I'll get the cutlery."
As Winnie was about to turn around, Leo put his hand on her shoulder.
"I will take it."
Leo said considerately. That intimate behavior was caught by Brian, which made him angry.
"Thank you!”
Winnie thanked him and sat down next to Leo, because Leo was not malicious and he was safer than
Brian.
They began to eat, Megan was the first to speak.
"Brother Luke, is the food delicious?"
Megan asked innocently.
"Yes."
Luke was probably hungry, and he was chewing as he answered.
"Uncle Leo made them. He said they are Mommy's favorite food. I think it's delicious, too."
Megan said this on purpose absolutely, so that Brian could hear her. Mommy didn't want her to bother
him, so she said in euphemism.
"Thank you, Uncle!”
Luke said thank you, while secretly glancing at Brian. He understood Megan's words, and his Daddy
must have understood.
"You're welcome. Eat as much as you like. If you're hungry, you can come to my house and I'll cook for
you."
Leo said gently.
"Uncle, you can come every day, we are neighbors. Mommy can't cook as well as you."
Megan seemed to say innocently, in fact she was scheming.
"Megan... Uncle is so busy that he can't always cook for you. If you think Mommy's cooking is not good,
you can learn to cook by yourself."
Winnie interrupted Megan. What was wrong with this child? How could she use her wisdom in the
wrong place?
"Forget it, let Brother learn to cook, and he cooks for me."
Megan pushed the burden to Luke.
Luke thought quickly, afraid that he said something wrong to anger his Daddy.
"I will cook for you."
Luke said, while patting Megan's head to comfort her.
During the whole process, Brian said nothing. He had been eating, but he could not taste the favor of
the food.
At the Moment he felt like an outsider, and it was hard to describe how he felt. But he would never
accept this situation.
Brian was the fastest one to finish the meal. He put down his chopsticks and got up immediately, with
smooth movements.
"Take your time. I'll go to the room and rest."
He said a meaningful sentence, and then he turned around and went directly to the bedroom.
His words made Winnie and Leo embarrassed.
Leo froze holding chopsticks in his hands. Brian naturally went to the bedroom, had they...Was he too
late...
After dinner, Leo helped Winnie clean up the mess before leaving.
It was a hard day for Leo today. Originally he had a happy time with Megan, originally he wanted to
review the past and cooked for Winnie, but he did not have fun at the table.
What made him more concerned was that Brian had never come out of that room since he entered it.
Winnie asked the two children to the study to do their homework before she went to the bedroom.
Leaning against the head of the bed, Brian was playing with his phone. When he heard the door open,
he took a look and continued.
"Mr. Bennet, it's getting late, why don't you..."
Winnie wanted to drive him away.
"I'm staying here today."
Brian spoke in a cold voice.
"Mr. Bennet, we made a deal last night. You can't..."
Winnie retorted.
"Can't what?”
Brian interrupted Winnie, threw down the phone, got out of bed and walked to Winnie.
“It's my house, and I can stay if I want to. My son is here and I can stay here unconditionally."
Brian’s dark eyes fixed on Winnie, without blinking.
"You..."
Winnie did not dare to look at Brian. Every time she saw his dark eyes, Winnie could not control
herself.
"It will affect Megan's mood, and she would say something to embarrass you. You......"
Winnie took a step back to make her words clear. Before she could finish her knows, Brian approached
again.
"Megan is in a good mood today and will not embarrass me. Again, this is my house and I have free
access to it."
Brian looked at Winnie's reddish face and raised a undetectable smile.
"Ok, since the house is yours, I'll move out tomorrow with two kids."
Winnie was angry that this man was bullying.
"Good, if you move out, you won't have to see your neighbors. I'll find a house for you tomorrow."
Brian preferred that. Leo was making coincidence. He wanted to see how his next coincidence would
work.
"You can't do that, you know?"
Winnie was angry, but she did not know how to refute because Brian was so close to her.
"What can I do? You don’t want to leave now? Because of Leo? You don’t want me to stay because I
influence you?"
Brian suddenly said in a cold voice and his eyes became dark.
Such Brian instead made Winnie relax.
"My affair has nothing to do with you, it is my private matter. You can only care the official business."
Winnie was stubborn and glared at Brian angrily.
"What if I have to care?"
Asked Brian.
"Then divorce Penny and be my husband. Otherwise stay away from me, you have no right to care
about me."
In a fit of pique, Winnie mentioned it again. But then she regretted it. How embarrassing it was to be
rejected again, how painful it was to be ridiculed again. She deserved it by saying that.
Sure enough...
Brian’s dark eyes became sharp, and they were as cold as a freezing arrow.
"Winnie, in any respect, you are not qualified to be my wife. In addition to the identity, Penny cannot get
my feelings, you both are not worthy."
Brian's voice was colder. His eyes were like an arrow against her chest, and his voice was an invisible
force that stabbed that arrow into her heart, causing blood flowed instantly.
"Because I'm dirty? Because I have a kid? Because I'm lowly? Ok then, don’t mind the affairs between
me and Leo, he doesn't despise me."
Winnie stared at Brian angrily, and then left sadly after that.
It was understandable that she was not worthy. After all, she had a bad past and now it did not get
better.
But what does it mean that Penny was unworthy? Why did he marry her?
If they were not worthy of his feelings, then who was worthy?
