Winnie reached for the remote control, put the bed down, closed her eyes and never opened them
again.
It was better to meet this day earlier than later.
But that she came back at this time was cruel to Winnie. She had just seriously injured and almost
died. In a few days after the operation, Penny showed off that she was pregnant. The wound which
caused by Penny was still there, and now she had to face another fatal blow.
Such a shock would not kill her, but it did hurt her.
Brian quietly left. He felt distressed for Winnie and was reluctant to leave. At the moment standing
outside the parking long, Brian could not breathe feeling heartache. At the moment he had to admit that
he had fallen in love with Winnie.
He loved her, no matter she was a surrogate or Winnie, no matter she was a cheater or excellent
talent. He loved everything about her, deeply.
Unfortunately, it was too late to know it.
Winnie was discharged from the hospital on the fourth day because she would feel even more
miserable in the hospital.
Without the care of nurses at home, Winnie let Daenerys live in her home to help her send children in
the morning and pick up the children at night. Daenerys also needed to go to work, so she was very
busy.
But Daenerys were on a business trip in a few days, and Winnie had to do it on her own.
She was unable to manage the household chores and had to find an hourly worker and to order
takeout. Though it was not easy, she never called Brian.
After dropping off her children in the morning, she received a call from the police.
To her shock, the police confirmed that Daniel had died, and the cause of his death was still under
investigation. The police asked her to check to see if it was her attacker.
Now Winnie was frightened by this news. She did not expect that Daniel had died and that things were
getting more and more serious.
She changed into a casual dress and went out. She was not nimble yet, but it was not for her to care.
When she came to the police station, she met Brian and Albert. Albert found Winnie had difficulties to
get off, so he quickly went up to help.
"Why are you here, Winnie? You can call me, and I will pick you up."
Albert said. Since he knew that Wendy would come back, he felt that Winnie was a poor man.
"The police called me and said that something had happened to Daniel and asked me to come and
confirm. Did you get a call from the police too?"
Winnie talked with Albert and did not look to Brian, because seeing his cold face, she might be unable
to hold on for two months.
“Yes, the police informed us.”
Albert answered, holding Winnie's hand.
Winnie was still very weak. From home to here, and till she got off the taxi, she had oozed faint sweat.
But she was strong enough to wipe it off with her hands.
"Albert, I will deal with it. I will tell the police to directly contact me. You are very busy, sorry to have
dragged you in."
From now on, she must try to do her own thing and never bothered Brian.
"Winnie, I will help you unconditionally, don’t feel it as burden."
Even if Brian did not command, he would find time to help. After all, they were colleagues and the got
along so well, he sure would offer help.
"Thank you, I..."
Winnie was still about to refuse, but the police officer in charge of the case came to her.
"You must be the victim. Come with us."
"All right."
Winnie said and walked away with the police.
During the whole time, she did not look at Brian or say a word to him. She walked into the police station
even if she was still weak.
But her back made him distressed, because she still hunched back and dared not straighten up to
walk.
"Albert, follow her."
Brian said. He was cold to her, but she could not bear to see her lonely figure.
Albert received the order and followed up. Thanks to Brian’s fast order, if a bit later he would take
initiative to take care of Winnie.
Winnie followed the police to the place where the body was stored, before entering, the police asked
Winnie a few questions.
“At the moment we have no conclusive proof that the dead man was the man who hurt you. So you
need to provide some details about what happened at the time."
"I kicked him in the genitals twice, and he grabbed my phone, which must have had his fingerprints on
it."
Winnie recalled carefully. Although she still feared, she could only be strong, because she only had
herself to rely on.
"He tore up my clothes, which also had his fingerprints on them."
"The fingerprints on your clothes were so damaged during the rescue that they could not be retrieved.
When the genitalia was damaged, we also need to identify it after the confirmation. The phone you said
so far has not been found, so we cannot be sure."
"You can find it, the phone has a location."
Winnie did not know these details at all. If she had known, she would have caught Daniel.
"Really?"
The policeman said excitedly.
They did not know that the mobile phone had the tracking function, and Albert forgot that.
"We will trace in a while, before this you first confirm if the dead is Daniel Wong."
Continued the policeman.
"Get ready, he died in a terrible way, it may frighten you."
Hearing that, Winnie feared and then took a look at Albert hesitantly.
“May I have him to walk me in?”
Winnie asked, pointing to Albert.
"Yes."
"I'll walk her in."
As soon as the voice of the police dropped, Brian's voice rang out behind.
He knew that Winnie would be afraid and she would not be able to fall asleep at night if she went in
alone.
Winnie looked back and saw Brian. She felt at ease. Now her mood was very complicated and she was
afraid. At this moment, she had no courage to refuse Brian.
The police took them into the morgue. Daniel's body was covered with a white cloth, but the white cloth
had large spots of bloodstains, which had made Winnie tremble with fear.
At this time, Brian pulled her hand from behind and imperceptibly gave her courage.
The police put on gloves, motioned to Winnie to get ready, and then lifted the white cloth over Daniel's
head.
Winnie could not help screaming at the moment she saw Daniel.
At this moment, Brian quickly reached out to cover Winnie's eyes and put his arms around Winnie.
He could clearly feel that Winnie was trembling all over, and tightened Winnie in his arms.
"Don’t be afraid."
Winnie was sure afraid. It was because she saw Daniel's tragic death. Her heart was panicked, and as
the moment she saw Daniel's dace, she recalled what happened that day.
Daniel got injured in head, but she could still recognize his face clearly. Therefore, Winnie's panic heart
could not be calmed down for a long time because of this ferocious face.
"Sir, we confirm it's Daniel. He worked in our company."
Brian told the police the result before the police asked. He was afraid that the police would let Winnie
confirm repeatedly.
"Ok, you go back first."
"Can you confirm that Daniel committed suicide?"
Asked Brian.
"I can't say for sure. We'll have to wait for the results of the autopsy. Because the force of being pushed
is not the same as the force of jumping, and the landing point is not the same."
"Go back and wait for the results. We will inform the victim after the autopsy."
The police could not give a definite result without an autopsy.
Brian held Winnie to leave, until out of the police station, Winnie was better.
"Thank you for your help again."
Winnie said politely, which made distance between her and Brian. It seemed that suddenly they
became strangers.
"I'll get in touch with the police later, and if there's any progress, or if there's anything I can do, they just
need to call me. You are all very busy and I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Give your phone to the police, they need to track it. I gotta go."
Winnie said and walked toward the road.
"Let Albert take you back."
"No need, I can take a taxis, it is convenient."
Winnie turned Brian down as quickly as she could.
Winnie's politeness made Brian sad, but at the moment he had no other choice. Since she refused, she
would never let Albert take her back.
"I'll come to your place tonight."
Brian was worried about Winnie. She was frightened just now and she would have nightmares at night.
"No, you're busy. I'm going to the suburbs tonight with the children. I've already told your father."
Winnie said apathetically.
"To the suburbs, why?"
Brian asked in a cold voice.
"Daenerys is away on a business trip, and I can't do the housework now, I can't even cook for two
children, so I can only go to the suburbs to ask him for help."
What Winnie said was just one of the reasons, another reason was that Brian would not easily go to the
suburbs, so that it would be much easier for them to separate.
Winnie admitted she still loved Brian, but the last person she wanted to see at the moment was Brian.
Seeing him, her heart would be sour and could not calm down.
"Don’t , I'll take care of you."
Brian stopped Winnie from going to the suburbs. If Winnie went there, he would never see her again in
two months.
"You are so busy, I don’t want to bother you. Besides, you can't always look after me, so I'll manage for
myself.”
Winnie again rejected Brian.
In the last two months, she also wanted to get along well with Brian, but now she could not treat him as
an ordinary person, so she could only avoid him.
If she could recover her peace of mind in two months, she would get along with Brian as a friend. But if
she failed, she could only leave with regret.
