Daenerys tried to pull her hand back, but it didn't work. She could only protest.
"Let go, I still have to work."
"Let’s have dinner after work."
With a smirk on his face, Kevin said.
"I don't have time. I have to work late."
Daenerys refused Kevin, but she dared not raise her head to see him for fear that her eyes would
betray herself.
"Then I won't let you go, you don't work, and I won't have dinner. We'll see who insists the longest."
Kevin said. Now he could not be humble and polite to Daenerys.
"You..."
Daenerys did not know what to say. She was not as stubborn as Winnie and she knew she could not
insist, so she could only compromise.
"Wait a minute, we can go for dinner after I finish."
"No problem, I'll wait for you here."
Kevin knew he made it. As long as Daenerys agreed, he could wait. It was better to be later and got
drunk.
Winnie left the hospital. She was happy to think of Daenerys and Kevin's love.
But the happier others were, the lonelier she felt.
All the people in the world had their own harbor to rely on, only she was a lonely individual, and no one
to share her loneliness and hardship.
Winnie drove to a supermarket to buy something to suburb.
No sooner the car had just parked than the cell phone rang.
It was Leo and Winnie picked it up.
"You are busy. Why do you have time to call me?"
Winnie said jokingly.
"I am not that busy. Where are you? Are you off work?"
Leo said gently over the phone.
Every time she heard Leo's voice, she thought of Brian. If only Brian could be as gentle to her.
"I'm off work. I'm going back to the suburbs."
"Don't go back now, I need your help."
So Winnie restarted the car and planned to be back to the suburbs after helping Leo.
Winnie drove to the place where she used to live. From getting off the car, it seemed that there were
memories of him and Brian everywhere. Although there were not many good memories, it was enough.
When Winnie came to the 18th floor, she rang the doorbell and was waiting for Leo to open the door.
The door opposite was opened. Brian came out followed by Klara.
Winnie was surprised to see them come out together, and there was an indescribable feeling.
She believed that Brian only cared and helped Klara, but Klara's heart to Brian had never been simple.
Klara had love in her eyes to Brian, which made Winnie feel sad.
But she realized that she was overthinking. Brian had nothing to do with her, why should she feel sad?
Brian was also surprised to see Winnie standing in front of Leo's door, and then he frowned.
So their relationship had developed so fast in a few days?
More than once Winnie said she would not be with Leo, so what was going on here? She had just
ended relationship with him and now she could not wait to come to Leo?
"Mr. Bennet, Klara."
Winnie was the first to say hello.
She couldn't ignore them anyway, but she didn't expect the greeting to end up putting herself in an
awkward position.
Brian glared at her angrily and did not speak. Klara looked at her with disdain and did not speak.
When Winnie was embarrassed, Leo opened the door and came out.
"Here you are, Winwin."
"Mr. Bennet, you are here too."
Leo greeted, but his voice was serious.
Brian still did not say a word, but stood there glaring at Winnie.
"Let's go in."
Winnie felt no need to talk to the two black-faced men again, and realized that she should not have
said hello.
"Okay, let's go in."
Leo stretched out an arm to embrace Winnie's shoulder, before turning around, Leo could not help but
say to Klara.
"Klara, when Winwin greets you, you should know the most basic manners. Don't look at Winwin with
contempt, she is very good, there is nothing you can despise."
Leo's voice was unprecedentedly cold and angry.
He saw the reaction of Brian and Klara in the video inside the house. He could understand Brian's
reaction. He must be angry that Winnie was here.
But Klara’s arrogant and disdainful attitude made Leo angry.
Klara did not expect that. She was surprise and panic.
She was standing beside Brian, and Brian could not see her expression, so she was bold to despise
Winnie. Leo exposed her, which made her embarrassed.
"Mr. Johnson..."
As Klara was to explain, Brian looked sharply at her, and she had to shut up.
But Leo did not want to stop.
"Mr. Bennet, it seems your secretary should be sent to study. Winwin......"
"Well, stop it. What Klara did to me is her business."
Winnie interrupted Leo's words, not because he hated Leo spoke for her, but she did not want to be
stared at by Brian angrily.
She did understand why he was so angry, why he kept silent. If it was because he disliked her, the best
thing she could do now was to disappear in front of him.
"Klara, I won't say hello to you again, bother you again, I am sorry for this time."
Winnie said ironically, about Brian should know he could punish Klara. If he protected her, even if
Winnie spoke out all her dissatisfaction and discrimination, Brian would do nothing to Klara.
What was more, Klara had a lifetime "amulet" to protect herself, which Winnie did not have.
Klara was embarrassed, even though there was no dirty word and disdainful eyes.
"Winwin, I will move away from here tomorrow, and you won’t meet rude people."
Leo was still angry, and then turned into the house with Winnie.
Brian heard Klara's disrespect to Winnie from their conversation. He warned Klara with a scowl and
then took a big step to leave directly.
For Klara's disrespectful behavior, he did not take it seriously. He was angry that Winnie came to Leo's
home and Leo naturally out his hand on Winnie's shoulder.
Why didn’t she refuse Leo's approaching? Why did she appear? Had they been together?
Winnie entered the room and stood at the door to change shoes. She did not hear the sound outside.
She knew that Brian did not even accuse Klara, which made her disappointed.
Winnie told herself to let go even if disappointed, because how Brian treated Klara had nothing to do
with her.
Winnie thought Leo called her to study software, but as she walked in and saw the delicious food on
the table, she knew she had been cheated.
"You cheated me."
After adjusting her mood, Winnie said jokingly.
"You wouldn't have come if I didn’t cheat you."
Leo forgot what happened just now and got into another stage.
He was not busy today. He went off work in advance made cook some food, intending to give Winnie a
surprise.
He said that he would move out tomorrow and would never let such a thing happen again. He would
not embarrass Winnie.
"Go wash your hands to have a meal, or it will get cold."
Winnie put her bag down and went to the bathroom.
At this moment, Daenerys and Kevin were together, Brian and Klara were together and she needed an
environment that she was not alone.
She refused to drink because she needed to drive. They chatted about some insignificant things to
keep the atmosphere pleasant.
"Winwin, I heard you want to buy a house."
Leo mentioned the topic he cared deeply about.
"Did Daenerys tell you?”
Winnie asked.
“Daenerys has nothing to hide from you, it seems.”
"......"
Kevin did not speak, but showed a slight smile.
“Yes, I've paid my deposit, and I'm going to do the formalities tomorrow.”
Winnie answered truthfully.
"Do you need a loan? I can lend you the money and you can buy it at full amount, so there is no
pressure."
Leo did not dare to give Winnie money, otherwise, she would refuse and feel self-esteem hurting.
"......"
Winnie was silent for a few moments before pretending to be relaxed and replying to Leo.
"I would feel more pressure owing you money. It's been a long time and you don't know me. It's enough
for now, but when it's not enough, I'll borrow it from you."
Winnie refused. She would rather owe money to the bank than favors from others.
"Winwin, don't always turn down my help. It is proper for friends to help each other. You will not come to
work in my company, but I will still need your help in software. Isn’t it ok to help each other?"
Leo persuaded Winnie.
He knew that she did everything on her own and that she didn't want to owe anyone. But Leo did not
want to see her struggle, did not want to see her desperate to fight for money.
He wanted her to have an easy life.
"You don't need my help. How can I ask you for help? You're not afraid of being indebted to me. You're
refusing my help."
Leo had no other way. In order to make Winnie accept his help, he could only use this move.
"How you can I refuse to help you? I can do it on my own, so..."
"Winwin, don't say no again. I've heard all about you from Daenerys. If you buy a house with a loan,
you don't even have a year's living expenses after paying the down payment. When you buy a new
house, you need to buy daily necessities, and your two children have to change their kindergarten. You
need to spend much money. If you don’t have enough money, you won’t have an easy life.”
"My money is not to lend you for nothing. Just like bank, you pay me interest, so that you don't have to
owe me favors and the loan fee can be saved."
Leo tried hard to make Winnie accept his money.
He knew that she did everything on her own and that she didn't want to owe anyone. But Leo did not
want to see her struggle, did not want to see her desperate to fight for money.
He wanted her to have an easy life.
"You don't need my help. How can | ask you for help? You're not afraid of being indebted to me. You're
refusing my help."
Leo had no other way. In order to make Winnie accept his help, he could only use this move.
"How you can | refuse to help you? | can do it on my own, so..."
"Winwin, don't say no again. I've heard all about you from Daenerys. If you buy a house with a loan,
you don't even have a year's living expenses after paying the down payment. When you buy a new
house, you need to buy daily necessities, and your two children have to change their kindergarten. You

"My money is not to lend you for nothing. Just like bank, you pay me interest, so that you don't have to
owe me favors and the loan fee can be saved."
Leo tried hard to make Winnie accept his money.
