Brian suddenly thought of the reason why asked Winnie to stay, thinking that it surely was because
Luke couldn’t leave Winnie that he had to ask Winnie to stay for Luke’s sake.
Winnie turned around and walked back to the bedroom, casually closing the bedroom door.
Winnie said seriously, “It won’t work if you are trying. You should behave properly. Love the child
heartedly as if you were a father."
This time, if she didn’t make a request, she wouldn’t have any chance later. Neither could she restrain
Brian.
Brian replied helplessly, fearing that Winnie would turn around and leave, "I will do whatever you say."
Winnie curled up the corner of her mouth, revealing a smug smile. Although she had been hurt by
Brian's words, the problem was solved. She thought that it was worth it.
The next day, in a private room of a cafe ...
Penny looked thoughtfully at Daenerysel who was sitting across from her, feeling somewhat
apprehensive in her heart. She wondered if he could cooperate with her.
Penny said in a soft voice with a flirtatious look in her eyes, " Mr. Daenerysel. Is it presumptuous for me
to call you out like this?"
Daenerys greeted her with a smile, "No, no. I'm bored with nothing to do. It's nice to come out and talk
with you, Mrs. Penny.”
Penny, who didn’t beat around the bush, got down to the point as fast as she could, "The reason why
I'm asking you to come out today is that I want to discuss something with you about something. I don't
know if you are willing to cooperate with me."
Daenerys said respectfully, "Let’s not call it cooperation. As long as I can help you, I will do my best. I
don't know what kind of matter you want to discuss with me, Mrs. Penny?"
The only one that could give him hope now was Penny. Since she took the initiative to ask him out, he
would never let go of the opportunity.
"It is about Winnie. Don't you like Winnie? I have a way for you so that you can get her."
Penny had a sinister look on her face. Using Winnie to tempt Daenerysel was an idea she had figured
out after a few days.
Daenerys pondered on it for a moment, "Winnie?"
"Good. Then let's talk."
Daenerys was secretly happy. When it came to everything about Winnie, he wanted to participate in it.
...
When Winnie came home from work, she saw Daenerys lying on the sofa in her living room with a lazy
look on her face.
The two children greeted Daenerys together, "Hello, Auntie Daenerys."
"Hello, you guys. Babies, you are so well behaved."
Daenerys sat up. Her face was full of affection. And she touched and kissed the two babies one after
another, treating them as if they were her children.
"Why are you here? Aren't you busy today?"
Winnie walked over to her. While talking, she put down the bag.
"I am unemployed. I won’t be busy."
When it came to working, Daenerys was immediately in a bad mood.
Winnie widened her eyes in disbelief, "How come you are unemployed?"
...
"Go into the room with me and let’s talk there."
As Winnie was just about to ask Daenerys the reason why she had been unemployed, she suddenly
thought of Penny's threat the other day.
In order not to let Luke hear Penny's name, Winnie hurriedly took Daenerys back to her bedroom.
Winnie asked eagerly, "It's related to Penny, isn't it?"
"Yes, the relative parties didn't cover it up at all. The higher-ups told me directly that I had offended
Mrs. Penny in the Bennet Group and that if I didn't leave, my company would face a takeover."
"So you righteously submitted your resignation. How handsome you are."
Daenerys was in a quite low mood. However, fearing that Winnie would blame her, she could only
forcefully pretend to be indifferent.
Hearing Daenerys saying so, Winnie was emotionally depressed this time. It was all because of her
that Penny had picked Daenerys’ t. In that case, she surely had to blame herself.
Winnie whispered in apology, "I'm sorry, Daenerys, I'm the one who got you into trouble."
Daenerys said lightly, comforting Winnie in turn, "It's okay. I can find another job if I lose it. It's their loss
to ask someone as good as me to quit. Winnie, it is time to turn back the clock and give me another
chance. I will still stand up to help you. I am voluntary. You don't have to be sorry."
Ever since the death of Winnie's parents, Winnie had changed a lot compared with who she used to
be. She used to giggle carefreely. Now, although she would laugh as well, she would suddenly stop
laughing and looked dazed.
In the past, when she encountered something aggravating, she would cry without fear. And after crying,
the aggravation would flow away with the tears. Now she also cried. But each time, she tried her best
effort to hold herself back. It wasn’t until she could no longer bear the pain that she cried in pain.
What did all this show? It showed that Winnie was used to keeping everything to herself and having
amnesia as well as thinking about the issues all day.
To prevent Winnie from taking her dereliction of duty to her heart, Daenerys could only tell her the truth
so that they could generously face the issues together. Only in this way would Winnie feel better in her
heart.
Winnie surely understood Daenerys's thoughts. She, who was moved, hugged Daenerys.
Winnie lamented, feeling secretly sad, "Daenerys, thank you, I'm happy to have your partiality. If you
don't want to find a job, you don’t have to. I'll support you."
"I'm so young. How can I not find a job? I still want to earn more money to help you raise two children.
Don't worry about such a little thing. I can still handle it."
Daenerys was touched as well. Although she had been helping Winnie over the years, Winnie, who
was kind, knew how to show her gratitude. Daenerys thought that it was worth it for her to make a little
sacrifice for Winnie. After all, they were besties. And they, who were besties, should share the same
blessings and difficulties.
"Thank you, thank you for having me and my children on your mind."
Winnie was touched again.
The dinner Winnie made was more sumptuous. To comfort Daenerys, the two of them also drank wine.
Daenerys asked Winnie, holding up a bottle of wine, "Another glass of wine?"
Winnie refused, "No, I can't drink anymore. If I drink again, I can't go to work tomorrow."
Although she didn’t go so far as to be dizzy, she indeed wasn’t capable of drinking.
"Then don't drink. Let’s chat for a while. By the way, is Brian coming here today? If not, I'll stay here."
After all, Daenerys didn’t have any work. She wanted to stay here for a few days.
Winnie felt some discomfort in her head and rubbed her temples, answering, "It doesn't affect you to
stay here even if he comes back."
"How come it won’t affect me? Do you have extra rooms here?"
Daenerys knew that the rooms here are probably occupied. The two children got one each upstairs.
Winnie and Brian got one each downstairs. While for the rest, it was either a study or a studio or a
room for children. There was no extra room for her.
"There are extra rooms. Let me clean up the room for the children upstairs. The children are big both
grown up. They simply don’t like those items in their childhood. Even if the room for children can’t be
vacated, there will always be a room for you. My bedroom is empty. You can live there whenever you
want to live. It happens that you can help me with the children."
Winnie surely had been drunk. The alcohol paralyzed her mind. and she had no idea what she had
said.
"What do you mean? Is your room empty? Then where do you live?"
Daenerys was quite sober instead. Such a little wine didn’t matter to her at all. She managed to sense
the loophole in Winnie's words.
"I sleep with Brian in the master bedroom. So my room is empty."
Winnie was still speaking unconcernedly without noticing that she had said something she shouldn't
have said.
Daenerys asked in surprise, "Did you slept with Brian? Oh my God. When did that happen? Didn't you
say it was impossible for you two? Didn't you say he wasn't your type?"
She, who seemed to have been stunned, instantly became sober.
Only after that did Winnie come to her senses and knew she had said something wrong.
She was embarrassed at first. Then, she rolled her eyes from time to time and fluttered her curly
eyelashes up and down mischievously. Realizing that she had said the wrong thing was useless now.
What to do? She thought that she would just admit it frankly.
"You've set me up. I promised I couldn't say it. I didn't hold myself back in success."
"What do you mean by that? I didn't say anything. You said it by yourself. Say it. What's going on?"
Daenerys had to know the truth which should be in detail.
"Yes, we are living together. I promised to be his woman..."
Winnie told Daenerys about what had happened between the two of them briefly. But she could only tell
her the happy ones. As for her inner pain, she couldn’t reveal it.
Daenerys asked incredulously, "Are you in love with him?"
Her question poked Winnie's heart. She didn’t know how to answer.
Pouring another glass of wine to the full without being persuaded, she drank it down. Then she
pretended to answer spontaneously, "No."
Winnie found that as she revealed such an answer, she felt hurt in her heart.
She felt that love was like cancer. As long as she suffered from cancer, there wouldn’t be any cure.
Daenerys continued to ask, "What about him? Does he love you?"
Unexpectedly, the one who answered her wasn’t Winnie but Brian.
"No."
Brian's gloomy tone rang without emotion. And his cold eyes clearly showed his anger.
Winnie and Daenerys were stunned by the sudden appearance of Brian. They, who were
dumbfounded, looked at him without the slightest reaction.
"President Bennet, you are back. After you are busy all day, you should be quite tired. You guys should
rest early. I'll go back first."
Daenerys felt that there was going to be a storm coming, thinking that it would be wise for her to hurry
up and leave. So she left her best girlfriend behind and fled from Brian who was ferocious.
"This guy wimped out and ran before we can finish drinking the wine."
Winnie finished her words. Without warning, she picked up a glass of wine and drank it again.
She wanted to drink more wine so that she could get stoned and forget the merciless word which Brian
had just said.
"Stop drinking."
Brian was a step late in grabbing the glass of wine that had been empty.
Winnie said mischievously, "Keep your voice down. The child will be unhappy if he hears your voice.
I'm not drinking anymore. I didn’t drink much. I heard what you said quite clearly."
Then she got up. However, she, who had been sitting for too long, her legs became somewhat numb.
Losing her balance, she sat on the chair.
She looked up and looked at Brian who looked gloomily in a daze, barely putting on a smile.
"My legs are numb. I fell not because I drank much."
"Give me a moment. A moment later, I will be fine."
At this moment, Winnie didn’t know how to describe her mood in words. She, who felt bitter, had to
pretend to be unconcerned. She, who was aggrieved, had to pretend to be strong. She was so
entangled now. And she thought that she deserved it because she failed to control her heart. Why did
she have to have a crush on Brian as if she were a little girl?
This time, well, she was heartbroken. Well, she couldn’t make herself stop loving Brian, which she
thought that she deserved. However painful she was, she should endure it by herself.
Brian still had a gloomy look on his face. However, looking at Winnie’s face indicating that she was
pretending, he felt inexplicably distressed for her.
He walked to Winnie's side, bent down, and directly picked her up horizontally. Then he turned around
and walked towards the bedroom.
Brian ordered in a cold voice, "Luke, open the bedroom door."
Hearing his words, unexpectedly, Winnie began to protest, "Did you forget what you had said yesterday
today? The way you talk to the child seems not to be appropriate."
