When Winnie found that Luke was her son, if she found that Luke was happy, she would have left with
Megan.
But Luke had a miserable life and she had to stay.
Now that she had stayed, she would devote all her energies to the child, and do all she could to gain
custody of him.
Brian looked at Winnie and knew that what she said was reasonable, but he was not willing to be
bound. He had his reason and wanted to be free.
"Winwin, grandpa is almost 90 years old, it is impossible to influence Luke..."
Brian just wanted to explain, but Winnie became more and more nervous.
"I know, but I am afraid you will become the second chairman, in case you restrict his freedom."
Winnie was reasonable to worry, in her view, Brian and the chairman had not difference essentially,
otherwise he would not be willing to be bound by the chairman.
Hearing that, Brian’s eyes were covered with sadness.
In Winnie's eyes, he was like his grandfather, who care profit only.
But he wanted it was not the truth. He was not the kind of person who was irresponsible. There were
people in his heart who were more important than profit.
"Winwin, I have decided to give you custody of two children."
Brian did not continue the topic just now and directly gave his answer.
Winnie stared at Brian in surprise. She doubted that if she had heard it wrong.
How could it be? How could Brian make such a decision? How could he give her the two children?
She was ready to force him with death, but not it did not need that.
"Really? Did I hear you right?"
"No, I'm serious. We're going to have custody of the child certified tomorrow."
Brian's decision was made at the moment when Winnie jumped down. At that moment, he was afraid
that the children would lose their Mommy. At that moment, he was afraid that she would really leave
him.
At that moment he figured out everything. It didn't matter who had the custody of the children. The
important thing was that they were his children.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you for thinking of the children, thank you for not fighting with me."
Winnie was so excited that she wanted to cry, but she held back.
That was a good thing. She could not cry and could only laugh.
“I know it's unfair to you, and I know I've been selfish. But that's the best I can do for the kids. Don't
worry, I promise you, I will not get married and the children will not have stepfather. I will let them grow
up healthily and happily."
Winnie kept talking excitedly.
Seeing that Winnie was happy, Brian finally felt at ease.
That was what he made it up to her.
"Don't be so happy. I have my own demands."
Brian said in a calm voice.
"Ok."
"Megan has to have my surname. When I want to see the children, you can stop me. You can't take
your children away and leave out of the country. You have to live in B City all the time. Grandpa will not
know about this. Besides, I will pay five million a month for the two children."
"No problem. I'll agree to all your terms. But you don’t have to pay, I can..."
Brian had given her custody of two children, and she had no reason to refuse any of his demands.
"I have to pay, or I would feel sorry for them."
Speaking of this, Brian was in a low mood. Winnie felt distressed and did not refuse.
"All right, then."
"Since you gave me the children, I will give you back the money. But it will be a while. I just bought the
house and I don't have much money."
“What money?”
It confused Brian.
"The surrogacy money, I should pay you back."
Winnie explained about the money.
"Surrogacy money? Winwin, it is an insultation if you give it back to me."
Brian's face suddenly darkened and his voice cooled.
Winnie did not ask him for a penny and even wanted to give him back the surrogate money. He really
couldn't take it.
Not taking a penny from him showed only one thing. She had no feelings for him after such a long time.
That was why she had to figure everything out, especially about money.
But he still loved Winnie in this case, who was independent and strong, tough and unyielding.
Brian got up and wanted to leave, but Winnie spoke again.
"I didn't mean to insult you. I have respected you all the time."
"Mr. Bennet..."
Winnie was more emotional than rational at the moment, and almost said that she loved him.
However, she knew that she would only be laughed at and would only bring trouble to Brian. Thinking
like this, Winnie held back.
"Mr. Bennet, thank you for letting me be with the children."
Winnie said thank you from her heart. She was grateful that she could meet this man in her life and that
they had two priceless treasures.
Brian did not speak and left in silence.
The next day Winnie asked for a leave with the company in the afternoon and followed Brian to
implement the child's household registration.
At Brian's request, the children should be on his household book.
When the household registration officer asked her what Megan’s name was, Winnie was perplexed.
"I was so tired yesterday that I slept after you left and forgot the matter of Megan's name. Shall we call
her Megan Bennet?"
Winnie asked Brian for advice.
"Julia Bennet."
Brian said firmly, because he had long thought about the name of Megan.
"All right, whatever you say."
Winnie didn't think much of it. Instead, she thought Julia Bennet was a good name.
So Julia Bennet's name was on Brian's household registration book.
Holding the household registration book with Julia Bennet's name, Brian was unusually at ease.
On the contrary, Winnie was lonely.
"It's a bit sad that I'm alone with such a big household registration book."
Winnie involuntarily burst it out.
"Better than me, you are alone in the household book, but I am alone in the real life."
When it came to loneliness, Brian felt he was more lonely.
Now he didn't even have a home. He lived in an office all the time.
He didn't want to go to his grandfather's house. He even hated there when his uncle came back. The
villa had been given to Penny and he had taken his stuff away.
He intended to live with Wendy in the mountain villa, but since he knew that Winnie was the surrogate,
he wanted to seal it up, so that there were only his and Winnie's memories.
He went to the suburbs occasionally because Winnie and her children lived there. After a few days,
Winnie and the children would move out and he became homeless.
"You're alone temporarily. You'll have a home when Wendy comes back."
Winnie whispered, she knew she shouldn't say these things, but could not control it.
Speaking of Wendy, Brian did not continue. Because the closer Wendy came back, the more agitated
he felt, and sometimes he even had the impulse to escape.
"Let's go to the notary office."
With that, they moved on to the next item.
Coming out of the notary office, Winnie felt at ease. The custody of her two children was protected by
law and would never be taken away.
However, standing outside the door of the notary office, it was time for two people to really separate.
"In the future, if you can't solve the problem, ask me for help. Only when you are well, can the two
children be well."
Brian said in a low voice. It was his concern for Winnie, which Winnie could accept.
"Well, don't worry. I'll turn to you for help if I can't get over it. You don't have to worry about the children.
I'll take care of them."
Winnie assured Brian.
The atmosphere between the two people was so repressed that Brian wanted to roar loudly.
“Winwin...”
"Yes."
"Keep in touch with me whenever the kids need help."
Brian wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
"Sure, take good care of yourself. Be happy in the future."
Winnie's nose because sour when she said that. She turned and wanted to leave, but was pulled by
Brian into his arms.
He tightly embraced Winnie, wishing to melt her into his body, so that they would not separate.
But the reality was so cruel that he had to separate from Winnie, so that she could have a peaceful life.
"Take good care of yourself and don't make me worry."
After that, Brian suddenly released Winnie and turned to walk away. The straight figure was still calm,
the sonorous and powerful pace was still steady, but his heart was hurt.
Winnie could not hold back her tears.
From that day on, Winnie never saw Brian again, nor did Brian came to see her again.
It was not that there was no chance to meet, it was not that Brian did not miss the children, it was that
both of them deliberately avoided each other.
The airport.
Winnie picked up her aunt and Vanessa with Megan and Luke.
To her surprise, she met Brian when she got off the car and walked toward the airport.
"Daddy!”
"Daddy!”
The two children ran to Brian. Winnie stood there, watching him.
He was still handsome and cold. Looking at her casual clothes, she felt there was a huge gap between
them.
"What are you doing here?”
Brian was surprised to see the two children and Winnie.
After many days, she was still so beautiful, elegant.
"We come to pick up my aunt. Daddy, why are you here? Are you here to pick up my aunt?"
Megan asked.
"Oh, your aunt is back. I am not here to pick her up, I came back from business trip."
At this time, Winnie walked to Brian. She did not speak but gave a faint smile.
"Is Vanessa back?"
Asked Brian.
"Yes, she will go to school tomorrow."
Winnie was always smiling and polite.
"You moved out of suburb?"
Brian continued to ask, but felt frustrated.
