Oscar over the video explained with a smile.
"I did not have a good life in the last two years, so I felt ashamed to contact you. When I got better and
wanted to contact you, I found your contact information was lost."
Oscar said honestly. No matter what he said, Winnie believed him, because they never said false
words.
"What are you ashamed of? I'm worse than you are. If you had contacted me earlier, you would have
felt you are good."
Winnie said jokingly, but that was her real thought. She thinks none of her classmates had a worse life
than she did
With that, Winnie looked up and found Brian standing in front of her. She was surprised and her smile
disappeared.
It was indeed Kevin who opened the door, but Brian came unexpectedly.
Winnie tried to make herself look natural, and then smiled at Brian as a greeting. In fact, she was very
uncomfortable.
She hadn't seen Brian since coming back from the competition. She was determined to forget Brian
and to put all her energy into work, but only she knew, it was not an easy thing.
When he was not around, she could endure it. But when he stood in front of her, even if his face was
stiff, Winnie's heart could not help but jump violently.
Winnie took back her line of sight and continued to chat with Oscar through the video. Daenerys took a
look at Brian and then at Winnie, and then she got up to greet Brian.
"Where is Daenerys? We'll talk another time if you are busy."
Seeing that Daenerys disappeared in the video, Oscar was afraid of influencing Daenerys.
"It's all right, her husband's back. We can talk."
If Oscar hung up, Winnie would be embarrassed and did not know whether to stay or not.
"Daenerys is married?"
Oscar asked in surprise.
"Yes, and she gonna be a mother. She is more than six months pregnant now."
Winnie told Oscar the good news.
"No wonder she looks fatter. She is going to be a mother. Congratulations, I will definitely visit you
when I have a chance to go to B City."
Oscar got many things surprised, but they were all happy things.
"Welcome, welcome. We haven't seen for a long time, we should have a good together. Megan always
wants to see you."
Of course, Winnie welcomed Oscar. They were friends for years.
"I also want to see Megan. I'm such an incompetent father that I can't even remember what my
daughter looks like."
Oscar's joke reached Brian's ears and made him very uncomfortable.
But he said nothing, only tightening his eyebrows.
"Oscar, I heard from Winwin that you are not married, is that true?"
At this point, Daenerys appeared in range of the video.
"No, but I was thinking that if there is no suitable one, I will consider Winwin, but I wondered if she's
married."
Oscar's words made Winnie and Daenerys laugh. They seemed to be ok to make such jokes.
"No, Winwin hasn't married. I thank it is destiny. You have divorced for so many years, and have not
married yet. Why don't you remarry?"
"Life is so short that if you continue to waste time, don't say I didn't warn you if you regret."
No one knew if Daenerys said that intentionally or she had forgotten the existence of Brian. In short,
these words she said made Brian feel worse.
"I have no objection. I agree to remarry as long as Oscar is willing to."
Winnie said with a purpose. She wanted to tell Brian that she could soon get him over.
"Ha ha ha..."
Oscar laughed unbridledly.
"Good, when I go to B City, we discuss remarriage. Life is too short, why waste time for love?"
"Ha ha ha..."
Oscar laughed heartily again. He wished he had feelings for Winnie so that he would not be alone.
Three people chatted as if no others were around, but Brian got a bad mood.
They seemed to have an extraordinary relationship, not the classmate relationship that Winnie said, nor
that he helped Megan with registered permanent residence.
If it was, how could the mention remarry so naturally? But Winnie loved him, how could she move on so
quickly?
And Winnie looked at him indifferently, did she stop loving him?
"Brian, come and help me with the dinner. Let the ladies wait to eat."
Kevin saw Brian's gloomy face and asked him to come over.
"Are you upset?"
Asked Kevin as soon as Brian reached the kitchen.
"Cut the crap. What can I do for you?"
Brian did not directly answer Kevin's question. His heart was like bleeding.
"Don't listen to them. It's none of your business. Don't you think it's embarrassing to sit there in your
position?"
Kevin did not expect Winnie to be here. He met Brian when he was off work, so he directly took him
home. And when they got home, he could not leave immediately, or it would be more embarrassing.
"......"
Brian did not answer and he knew he was not right to sit there. But Winnie was like a strong magnetic
field that attracted Brian.
"Alas...... it is simple to others, but it is hard for you to choose."
"Brian, can't you live an ordinary life? Can't you give up everything for love?'
Kevin said it more than once, but he couldn't help saying it, when Daenerys couldn't hear him.
He didn't want Brian's marriage to be the same as his father's. He wanted him to be with the one he
loved. He hoped that he could put down the heavy burden on his shoulders and live easily and happily.
Brian didn't answer because he didn't know what to say.
He also wanted to give up everything to be with Winnie, but to give up the Bennet Group was to give up
all employees. If the Bennet Group fell into his uncle's hands, it was the employees of the Bennet
Group who suffered.
He wanted to find a good way to solve everything, but Grandpa's idea could not be changed, so what
he could do was to sacrifice his happiness, and give up the woman who loved him and was deeply
loved by him.
"Cook. Don't worry about me."
"You mean you will give up Winnie completely? Well, since then, it doesn't matter to you which man
she talks to. Don't be so sulky."
Kevin raised his voice, showing frustration about Brian's reaction.
In Kevin's eyes, Brian was an indomitable man, there was nothing he cannot do. But he could not
protect the woman he loved and could not give this woman love.
It seemed that the perfect and outstanding men also had problems that could not be solved.
Brian was still silent. He knew that Kevin said for his good and was worried about him. But he had done
his best and had done the least harm to everyone.
Brian could not help but look at the living room. Winnie had a bright smile on her face, but he was
hurtful.
This woman should have been so hearty and warm, but she had to disguise her smile because of his
torture. He had better let go, and she would be better off without his torment.
In the living room.
Three people were still talking freely. They had not seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot
to talk.
"By the way, how is Penny? Have you contacted each other?"
When speaking of Penny, Oscar became visibly serious and cautious.
Because he knew what Penny had done and should not be forgiven. However, after all these years,
she was once the best friend, and it was inevitable that he would want to inquire.
"Oh, a long story."
Daenerys was annoyed when she heard Penny's name.
"We won't talk about her today, Oscar. Her things cannot be finished in a few words. When you come
back, I will tell you about her."
Winnie also refused to talk about this topic, not because of trouble, not because of aversion to Penny,
but she was afraid that Brian would be uncomfortable to hear that.
"Ok. I'll come and see you sometime. It's getting late, and I have an appointment. Let's call it a day."
Oscar ended the video chat.
But he learned that they had a bad relationship with Penny from their conversation.
"Daenerys, I feel sick in my stomach. I need to lie down in the guest room."
After putting the phone away, Winnie got up from the sofa.
"Ok, I will ask for dinner later."
Daenerys thought Winnie did not want to see Brian, but she could not leave, so she found an excuse to
avoid seeing him temporarily.
However, Winnie was really bad with her stomach.
She had felt it at the beginning of the conversation and had been putting up with it.
Winnie came to the room and closed the door. She did not want anyone to come in, especially Brian.
After Daenerys saw Winnie into the guest room, she went to the kitchen.
"I can help."
She washed her hands and prepared to help with the cooking.
"No, you go chat with Winwin."
Kevin said, looking at Daenerys' belly. He did not want her to work with that big belly.
"Winwin is not feeling well and went to the guest room."
Daenerys inadvertently said, but Brian became nervous.
"What's the matter? She was fine just now."
Brian asked with concern, frowning.
"She said her stomach was not feeling well and would be all right after lying for a while."
Daenerys explained, afraid that Brian went to see Winnie.
"Stomachache? I'll go and see."
As expected, Brian was about to see her.
"Don't worry. She said she is all right."
Daenerys stopped Brian. She guessed Winnie must not want to see Brian.
