Winnie told Felix everything. She showed every video to Felix, as well as the photos taken when Luke
was injured for the first time.
"Every time Penny hits Luke, she hits somewhere which couldn’t be noticed by others. If Luke has
some obvious bruises, she will not let Luke go to school, for fear of being seen by the teacher. This
time, Luke must also have injuries on his body."
Winnie couldn't help crying again.
"Mr. Felix, Penny is too vicious. If you let her continue to take care of Luke, she will still abuse Luke. It
will cause irreparable harm to Luke and affect his life."
Winnie used the facts to persuade Felix. If Felix didn't let her take away Luke, she couldn’t bear it. She
would rather make things worse than let Luke get hurt again.
"This is my mistake. I shouldn't send the child to her."
Felix reflected on himself. Such a small child had experienced abuse so many times. How frightened
and helpless he should be! If Felix didn't stick to his own ideas, if he kept Luke with Winnie, at least the
hurt of this time could be avoided.
There was deathly silent in the living room. Winnie didn’t speak, just waiting for Felix's decision.
Felix was also pondering how this matter would not affect the overall situation.
After a while.
"I can let you take Luke back, but I have a request."
Felix made a decision with a gloomy face.
"What?"
Seeing the hope, Winnie was obviously excited.
"You can't publicize this matter. I will deal with everything Penny did to Luke. But you can’t tell Brian."
Felix had to consider more aspects. For the sake of the overall situation, he could only temporarily get
Luke wronged.
"Well, I won’t publicize this matter. I won’t tell Brian. But I absolutely can’t forgive Penny. Mr. Felix,
when it is necessary, I may not be able to keep my promise to you. At that time, you can find a good
woman for Brian. Penny is not worthy to be Luke's Mom."
Winnie was extremely firm. She couldn’t spare Penny. Since Winnie dared to abuse Luke, Winnie
wouldn’t forgive her no matter how.
"I said I will deal with Penny. What are you clinging to? It's because she ruined your plans and exposed
that you are a liar, so you want to take revenge on her?"
Felix was very dissatisfied with Winnie's answer, because Winnie's intervention could easily ruin his
plans.
Winnie was not surprised by what Felix said. Penny would definitely slander her like this. Maybe it was
just because of Penny’s words that Felix didn’t let Luke go back with her.
"Penny is really the same as before. No matter who she makes a lie to, she never feels guilty. Mr. Felix,
I will not explain this matter, because you may not believe me even if I explain it. But I can tell you
honestly. I have already forgotten what Penny told you. There is no so-called revenge."
Winnie was calm and composed. She hadn’t done anything wrong, so she didn’t have to panic.
"I knew Brian on the plane. I didn't plan it in advance at all. I met Luke on the plane, too. Coincidentally,
he and Megan are in the same class. All of these are coincident."
"As she said, we used to be best friends in the college. But we have broken up for more than four
years. She has been making trouble for me after I returned, so I can't bear it."
Winnie didn't explain that she was not a liar, because people in the Bennet family would think too
much. Like Brian, it was impossible for them to believe her easily.
She just wanted to let Felix know that she wanted to resolve the grudges between her and Penny by
herself.
Winnie paused for a moment.
"Mr. Felix, I don't know what you think. But I will definitely not affect your plans. I will not use this as an
excuse to pester Brian."
Winnie had a tough attitude. Now no one could stop her from countering Penny.
Felix frowned. His eyes were cold.
But his face calmed down again after a moment.
"Well, as long as you promise me not to ruin my plans, you can do whatever you want to do. Also, you
said that you won't pester Brian. You have to keep your words. You can’t affect his future."
Felix agreed, because he had no better solution for the time being. For the sake of Luke's physical and
mental health, and to prevent Luke from being abused, he could only send Luke to Winnie's side.
However, he now began to doubt the words Penny said. Winnie didn't look as bad as Penny said. The
most important thing was that there was no cunning in her eyes except for sincerity.
The agreement between Winnie and Felix was reached. Winnie took Luke home. Luke was dull along
the way. Even if Winnie talked to him, he only answered a few words in a low voice.
Winnie began to worry that this matter would leave a shadow in Luke’s life.
After returning home, Luke's mood improved after seeing Megan. But from time to time, Luke would be
still in a daze. Winnie was worried about it.
The following days, Winnie did not go to work. She wanted to accompany her children at home. Only
when Luke felt better would she go to work.
Winnie took the two children out to relax, to the zoo, to the botanical garden, to the amusement park
and to the cinema. But it still didn’t work. After returning home, Luke was still in a daze from time to
time.
"Luke, can you help Auntie with making dinner?"
Winnie wanted Luke to be busy, so that he wouldn't think too much.
"Of course."
Luke followed Winnie to the kitchen.
"What can you do? Can you pick vegetables?"
Winnie took out some vegetables.
"Yes, as long as you teach me, I can do anything."
Luke replied, but he didn’t look so well.
"Wow, you’re so good. Luke is a real man. You can do so many things. As long as Luke is willing, no
matter how difficult it is, you can overcome it, right?"
Winnie encouraged Luke while picking vegetables. Others couldn’t help him overcome the obstacles in
the mind. If he wanted to overcome it, he must overcome it by himself.
"Auntie, can I really not go back to Dad’s home in the future?"
Luke finally looked up at Winnie and asked, but he looked worried.
"Of course, I have talked with your great grandpa and your Dad. From now on you will live at Aunt's
house and no one can take you away."
Winnie blamed herself when she said this. She knew what Luke was worried about.
"Auntie, I don't want to go back to Dad's house anymore. I never want to see Mommy again in my life."
Luke whispered. When he talked about Penny, his body was still shivering.
Winnie put down the vegetables, and hugged Winnie's trembling body in her arms.
"Don't be afraid. Auntie will never let you live with Penny again. If someone comes to take you away, I
will try my best to protect you."
Winnie said firmly. Only in this way could Luke feel a sense of safety.
She said so and thought so. If such a thing happened next time, she would not care about anyone. She
would either use legal procedures or tell the truth to fight for the custody of Luke.
"Well, I will never leave you again. I want to be with you forever."
Luke always felt at ease when he was held in Winnie's arms. Now, he had the same feeling.
"I never leave you alone. Never!"
Winnie had already tasted the heartache of leaving once. God's favor made her meet her child again.
This time, she would never let go.
"Auntie, I want to call you Mommy."
Luke looked up at Winnie, eyes full of expectation. But these words made Winnie startled.
He was her own child. Why did she not dare to hear her child calling her Mommy?
"Luke..."
When Winnie was embarrassed, she suddenly heard Brian's voice.
Winnie looked up.
Although she didn’t welcome him, his sudden appearance at this time could get her out of the
embarrassment. Otherwise, she really didn't know how to answer Luke.
"Daddy."
Luke left Winnie's embrace, came to Brian’s side and held Brian's hand. There was dependence and
expectation in his eyes.
"Are you happy now?"
Brian asked in a deep voice.
"Yeah."
Although Luke said he was happy, he couldn't have any smile on his face.
"Luke, you go to play with Megan. Dad and Auntie have something to say."
Brian didn't talk too much with Luke. He was not used to it.
Luke went to the living room to look for Megan. Winnie turned around and started preparing dinner. As
for what Brian wanted to ask, she was already prepared.
"I'm going to have dinner here."
Brian whispered. He seemed to be happier than anyone else when Luke came back to Winnie’s side.
He felt so relaxed. Besides, he could come and go here freely. It was so great.
Winnie glanced sideways at Brian, and continued to cook without saying a word.
"Did you call me last night?"
Brian continued.
Winnie made several calls, but only today did he see it.
"Yes."
Winnie responded softly.
"What’s up?"
"I just want to ask you about Luke. Nothing else."
Speaking of what happened last night, Winnie was also angry with Brian. If he answered the phone, if
he did not go out, Luke would not be abused.
"How do you convince Grandpa?"
Brian continued to ask in a low voice. But there was no coldness in his tone.
"I just told him that you agreed to let Luke go back with me. He didn't say anything."
Winnie downplayed, trying not to let Brian find anything weird. Because she promised Felix to keep it
secret. Since she promised Felix, she had to keep her promise as much as she could.
"It's that simple?"
Brian didn't believe it. Even if he went to find Grandpa himself, it might not be so smoothly.
"I didn't expect it to be that simple. If I knew it, I would not agree to go back to work."
Although Winnie was not good at lying, she had already guessed that Brian would ask about this
matter, so she was well prepared to deal with it.
"Winnie..."
Brian said coldly.
"I called you last night. Why didn't you answer my phone? Are you afraid Penny will hear it?"
Winnie didn't care about Penny. She just wanted to know why Brian didn't answer her phone.
"The phone was in the bedroom. I missed a lot of phone calls. Penny didn't have the right to mind my
business."
Brian did put his cell phone in his bedroom before he went downstairs. If he knew Winnie would call
him, he would definitely bring the phone with him no matter where he went.
Brian continued to ask in a low voice. But there was no coldness in his tone.
"| just told him that you agreed to let Luke go back with me. He didn't say anything."
Winnie downplayed, trying not to let Brian find anything weird. Because she promised Felix to keep it

"Winnie..."
Brian said coldly.

Brian did put his cell phone in his bedroom before he went downstairs. If he knew Winnie would call
