Winnie had no objection. She wanted to leave the Bennet's house as soon as possible, so as not to
meet Brian.
"It is up to you, I have no objection. If you have decided on that house, come back tomorrow. It will be
in your name."
“I'm not going back. The house is in your name. I'm still a student and the bank won't give me a loan."
Vanessa didn't want that house and would buy one on her own if necessary. But she could not refuse
her directly, so she found an excuse.
"Ok, it can be in my name and I will transfer it to you when the loan is over."
Winnie felt it made sense. The bank's procedures were complicated. Vanessa did not meet the
conditions of bank loans, so temporarily the house could only be bought in her name.
"Don't buy a big house, otherwise the pressure is big."
Isobel said. She was afraid that Winnie's pressure was too big that she only focused on money and
would not find a boyfriend.
"Don't worry, aunt. This house isn't that big, and I can afford it. I am now a partner in a firm and earn
much more than I used to."
"We decided to buy the house."
Winnie knew what her aunt was worried about. She was afraid that her pressure was too great and she
was too tired.
But Winnie did not think so. She wanted to be tired and got more pressure, so that she would not think
of unrealistic things.
"Never mind. Ask Megan to come over, I want to chat with Megan."
Isobel could not convince her nieces, so she had to compromise.
"Megan, come, your great-aunt wants to talk to you."
Winnie raised her voice and shouted for Megan.
"Luke, come over, I miss Luke."
Vanessa joined in.
The two children ran over together, followed by Rufus.
Rufus sat around the sofa and waited quietly. He wanted to talk with Winnie when she finished the call.
"Grand-aunt, come to us, I miss you so much."
Megan said sweetly. She was excited to see her great-aunt in the video.
"Megan, good girl. I miss you too. I will meet you in a period of time."
Isobel said. Looking at Megan’s pleasing face, she felt relaxed.
However her voice fell into the ear of Rufus, making Rufus nervous.
Rufus wrinkled his eyebrows, and a woman emerged in his mind.
The voice was too similar, as if she was standing next to him.
"Great-aunt, can you come here tomorrow? I miss you so much."
Megan wanted her great-aunt can come earlier.
"No, I can go there tomorrow, I have not finished my work yet. Megan, be patient. When it get there, we
will not part again.”
Seeing that the child was expecting, Isobel wanted to go back to B City as soon as possible, but she
had been way from it for a long time, she did not know if she could get used to it.
“Megan, is that boy next to you Luke?”
Isobel noticed that boy next to Megan and guessed he was Luke.
Because Megan always mentioned Luke. And during this period of time, Vanessa kept saying to her
that Luke was cute. What was why she remembered Luke.
“Hello, great-aunt. I am Luke Bennet, you can call me Luke.”
Luke was in the arm of Winnie and greeted to Isobel.
“Good boy, it is our fist time to meet, but you know how to greet me.”
Isobel liked Luke very much.
“I call you as Megan did. Great-aunt, come. I want to live with you.”
Luke invited her with enthusiasm. He felt relieved to see a nice great-aunt.
He felt that Winnie’s family were all nice, enthusiastic and optimistic, which was different from his
family.
He like this carefree life and did not like the cold feeling of his family.
“Ok, ok, I like you, Luke.”
Isobel liked this boy. No wonder Vanessa always talked about him.
“Luke, we were talking about a house. I love you and want to buy a big house so that you can have a
bedroom. Do you want to live with us?”
Vanessa said proudly. She was pleased to see Luke and wished she could hold him into arms. She
wanted to make up her love for him.
“Yes, I want to live with you. Thank you for giving me a room, so that I can live with you, Auntie.”
“Good boy, I love you so much.”
Vanessa was happy and touched that the child trusted her family.
After chatting for a while, they hung up the phone. And Rufus was still thinking about Isobel’s voice.
“Grandpa, Auntie said I can live with them.”
Luke came to him and said shaking him. Then he came back to himself.
“… What did you say?”
“I said Auntie Vanessa will buy a house and there is my bedroom. She asked me to live with them.”
Luke was excited.
If he could live them, he could give up his Mommy.
“Gook, Auntie Vanessa likes you.”
“Luke, play with Megan outside, I talk with Auntie.”
His mind was wandering, but he had not forgotten his purpose.
After Luke and Megan left, Rufus said.
“Winwin, I heard that you are to buy a house. Are you not used to live here? Or do you feel a burden?
“No, it is good to be here.”
Winnie could see that Rufus did not want her to leave and she felt depressed, but she wanted to leave
Brian and the Bennet families.
“Sir, I will buy a house near to University B, so that Vanessa would feel convenient. And we can take
care of her. We have many family members and my aunt will come after some time. We can’t always
live here.”
“I never feel that it is a burden you live here.”
Rufus said. He wanted to have many people to live together, feeling like a family.
“Sir, there is other reason. Mr. Bennet and I have broken up, I want to stay away from him as far as
possible.”
“Actually, I want Vanessa to study aboard, and we can move aboard, but she wants to study in
University B, I could only try to stay away from him.
Every time when she spoke of Brian, she was in a low mood. She did not know when his impact would
stop.
“You can’t part completely. With Luke and Megan, you have to meet and communicate. I don’t think you
can stay away from him.”
Rufus knew he should not interfere it, because he never meddled in their marriage.
Now Brian wanted to marry Wendy, but the mother of the two children was Winnie, it was complicated.
“I know, but I will try my best. I don’t want other contact with him expect things related to kids.”
“Sir, I want to move out now. I am recovered and I can take care of the kids. I got a new job and it will
be more convenient if I moved back to city.”
No mater when, Winnie did not want to mention Brian.
He was pain in her heart. Every time he was mentioned, her heart got hurt. She could not bear that
hurt.
“You got a new job?”
Rufus was surprised. He did not expect that Brian would give up a talent.
“Yes. I have done the handover of the Bennet Group and I am no longer its employee.”
Winnie said faintly. After leaving the Bennet Group and Brian, her thing was half done. If only Luke
could be settled, then she would have nothing to expect.
"Alas......"
Rufus continued to say with a sigh of disappointment.
"Winwin, I don’t want you to leave here and the Bennet Group. You are a talent and you are a good girl.
I have treated you as my daughter. When you said you wanted to move out, I have the feeling of
marrying the daughter."
Rufus really did not want her to leave.
"Well, don't move until you buy a house and when your aunt comes over. In the meantime, you go to
work and I take care of the two children. Think of it as spending some time with me."
Rufus could only try to retain Winnie. He did not want Winnie and the two children leave. if they left, he
would be alone again.
"......"
Winnie did not know what to do. If she continued to stay, she would be suffering. If you left, Rufus
would be sad.
'Winwin, if you don’t want to see Brian, I won't let him come to me. He......"
"Sir, you can't do that."
In order to retain Winnie, Rufus even gave up to see his son. Winnie could not afford it.
"Sir, your relationship with him has just improved a little. You can do that. I won't leave until my aunt
comes back."
Did Winnie have any other choice? At this time, she could only bear it so that it would not destroy the
relationship between Rufus and Brian.
"All right, good girl. Thank you."
"Tell me how much you need to buy a house, and I'll help you with anything. If Brian threatens you with
the children, I will be on your back."
Rufus knew that Winnie was not easy, and she did not have the ability to fight with Brian. He would try
his best to help Winnie and reduce the harm to the child.
In fact, he felt it hard to stand in the middle. If he helped Winnie and the children, Brian became a
lonely man. But if he helped Brian, the children would forever separate from their mother, which was
cruel to the children and Winnie.
Winnie appreciated Rufus's help, but she had her own principles. She would rather owe money to the
bank than borrow money from anyone.
"I have the money to buy a house. If I need help, I will tell you. I hope you won’t think I am annoying
when the time comes."
