Klara didn't listen to Winnie's reasons. The most important thing for her was to keep her job.
"But Mr. Bennet is angry, and he had ordered me transferred to the branch office in A City. Winnie,
please help me for the sake of that we worked together."
Klara could be humble to Winnie, although she was resisting in heart. Winnie said she had nothing to
do with Brian, but she knew only Winnie could persuade Brian and Winnie was the most important
person in his heart.
"Transferred you to A City?"
Winnie was surprised and wondered what happened.
"Yes, after the New Year, I have to work in A City, if I leave, what should my family do?"
At this, she shed tears, she cared about her family. If she didn't have the family, it didn't matter where
she went. But now she would not be at ease if she left.
Winnie was silent.
She had found out the main reason Why Klara came to her. She was not to apologize but let her
intercede to Brian. What could she say? No matter Brian agreed or not, Klara's attitude to her would
not change.
"Winnie, please help me, I certainly won't aim at you. It was my fault. Please forgive me."
Klara was anxious and hurried to apologize again.
Winnie found that she was in tears, and she softened in heart.
“Fine, I will try, but don’t give too much hope.”
Winnie was not sure about the result.
“Thank you, Winnie, but, Winnie, please don’t tell Mr. Bennet I asked for your help, or he will be angry.”
Klara understood Brian and she had to remind Winnie.
“Ok.”
Winnie agreed, but she did not know how to mentioned it to Brian.
After what happened to Wendy, she was further away from Brian, and he had sent her many
messages, but she did not reply any one of it.
But she felt embarrassed to find Brian, and if Wendy knew it, it would be more awkward.
Emily felt upset these days and had been thinking about how to deal with it. She should pretend she
did not know anything or should ask Leo about it.
If she pretended that she did not know anything, she found she was sad and even suspected that she
would be sad forever.
If she asked Leo about it and it was the fact, how should she get along with Leo? If she knew that he
did not love her, but she still was with her, would not it be sad?
After thinking for a few days, she decided to talk to Leo, even if it was to break up, it would be better
than that she tortured herself.
She contacted her secretary and knew when Leo was available. And then she came to his office.
“Have you recovered?”
Leo learned from his secretary that Emily was here. As he walked out from the break room, Emily had
come in.
“It’s been a few days and you asked me whether I have recovered, isn’t it too late? You are like a fake
boyfriend.”
Emily was not joking, her expression and tone were serious.
Leo found that Emily did not look good and she expressed her mood on face.
“What happened?”
Leo walked to Emily, but he kept a distance from her.
Seeing that, Emily gave an ironic smile.
“We always have a distance between us and you never closed the distance. I want to make it close, but
you take steps back. We are just like friends.”
Emily said and felt her eyes sour. She did not need to prove the fact actually, seeing that Leo kept a
distance with her, she knew it was truth.
“Emily…”
Leo did not expect to hear that. Looking at her bitter face and strange tone, he was nervous.
“Well, don’t waste time, I like to go to the point.”
“What is your relationship with Winnie?”
Emily wanted to ask questions one by one. Only when everything was clear, she could leave Leo.
Leo was nervous and guilty.
“…”
“It is pointless to lie to me.”
Emily reminded him before Leo said anything, she did not want to be cheated twice.
Seeing that Emily was sad with firm attitude, Leo knew that she had got to know anything before she
came. Since that, he had nothing to hide.
…
Leo asked Emily to sit down and told everything about him and Winnie to her.
Hearing that, Emily felt sad about what happened to Winnie and her relationship with Leo.
“So till now you still love Winnie and has no feelings for me. You want to make Winnie feel relieved, so
you chose to stay with me, right?”
Emily asked with a hurtful heart. She has been looking for an excuse to give up Leo. As long as Leo
admitted that he still loved Winnie, she would give up immediately.
Leo did not know what to say, but he could not avoid it like a coward.
After a moment of silence, he admitted it.
“Yes.”
Emily was so sad to hear that.
How could he do that? How could he play with her feelings? She liked him, but he lied to her.
“Was the pedant in your car from Winwin?” It seemed to be late to ask that question, but she wanted to
know about it.
“Yes.”
Emily was speechless. No wonder he cherished that pendant and it turned out to have points. She
should be aware of it earlier, but she was so stupid in face of Leo.
"I'm sorry, Emily. It is my bad. I should have told you."
Leo could not bear it. He did not expect to be hurtful when he saw Emily was sad. Looking at her tears,
he wished to beat himself.
Now he used an innocent woman to make up for another woman, but how should he make up for
hurting Emily?
"Leo, don’t say you are sorry. I want to ask you a question. How long will you lie to me if I don't ask
about it?"
Emily did not know why she had to continue to ask, Actually, everything was clear and they could not
be together.
Did she want to feel hurt more not make Leo feel guilty?
"I don't know."
Leo could not answer this question. Maybe he would tell it tomorrow, maybe he would never tell it as
long as he loved Winnie, maybe he would get married or have children, but he really did not think when
the lie would be exposed.
"I know, there is no time limit, that is to say, as long as Winwin think you are happy, you will always hide
it."
What a pithy and hurtful analysis. Since she knew Leo, this was the most thorough analysis she had,
but it was the most painful.
Emily took a deep breath, feeling sad and helpless.
"Well, there's nothing more to say. Since it's a game between us, let's end it."
Emily almost broke down when she said that, but she tried all her strength to restrain herself.
"Winwin is single now. From this moment on, you are free. If you still love her, go after her bravely.
Don't use anyone to complete your love for her."
Emily said and turned to leave directly.
"Emily......"
Leo called Emily, but Emily did not look back as if she were deaf.
Back in the car, Emily finally couldn't help crying. Although she hadn't been in love for long, she knew
she had paid her heart. It was so sad, and she could not endure it.
She did not cry in front of Leo, because she wanted to keep her dignity, making herself look not so
poor.
For Klara, Winnie thought about it for a long time before she came to Brian.
When she arrived at the company, Brian was in a meeting. After the secretary notified Brian, he
immediately suspended the meeting and returned to the president's office.
When he pushed open the door, he found Winnie sitting on the sofa in surprise.
He thought that Winnie was angry and would never talk to him, and now she appeared in front of him,
he could not control the excitement.
“Winwin...”
"Call me Winnie, it will be better."
Winnie's cold words instantly poured Brian's enthusiasm. He thought Winnie had forgiven him, but her
attitude showed that she still held resentment.
Winnie stood up.
"Mr. Bennet, I'm here to see what you've done about Klara."
Winnie could not come up with a good reason, and had no time or mood to chat with Brian. Besides
their relationship was so sensitive and many people kept an eye on them, she needed to be more
careful.
"This is an internal matter of my company and you can leave it alone."
From Winnie's words, Brian understood what she was trying to do. She wanted to be kind again.
"Yes, but it started with me. Can you tell me how you dealt with it?"
Winnie was embarrassed. She could not expose Klara but wanted to go to the point. However, it was
not easy to hide from it from such a smart person as Brian.
"You...... I'll transfer her to branch office in A City after new year."
