“Oscar, where are you going to the spent the New Year? You can come to my home, my family is
lively.”
Daenerys was the only one who was sober and was the first to be serious.
“I have been outside home this year, so I want to stay at home with my parents. I have booked my
flight.”
Oscar got flushed on face. He drank, but he spoke clearly and coherently.
“Winwin, since your aunt and Vanessa will come to your relative’s home, you can come to our home.”
Daenerys turned to Winnie.
But before Winnie could answer, Emily said ahead.
“Her children are Bennets, she can go the Bennet family...Oh, no, there’s Wendy. Don’t make the New
Year unhappy. Winwin, come to my home. My parents are nice and they like to be lively, you can bright
your children to have dinner with us.”
Emily felt that she was not considered. She remembered Wendy in the mid of her sentence.
“I have booked my flight, I will leave on 29th. Megan and I will come to A City to see my aunt. Luke
stayed will stay with his family.”
Winnie would not go anyone’s home, or she would be upset in the day of reunion.
“You go to A City? Don’t, what if you can be back when I give birth?”
Daenerys did not want Winnie to go. She was afraid when she gave birth if Winnie was not around.
“Rest assured, I will be able to come back. I have booked the flight.”
Winnie would not leave, or she and Megan would be left. Everyone would worry her and that was last
thing she wanted to see.
Brian had been silent. He had not given up, but Winnie was so stubborn and he could not persuade.
It seemed that he should change his strategy and discuss it with his grandfather first, and then talk to
Megan. In this way, Winnie might agree.
After drinking, Emily was so drink and needed to be helped to walk.
Leo left first with Emily. Oscar got a guest and lied down on bed to sleep. Daenerys was tired and went
back to her room to sleep. With a thick smell of alcohol, Winnie helped Kevin clean up.
“You go rest and I’ll help him.”
Brian looked at Winnie and said. He would rather help so that she could have some rest.
“I’ll do it. I’m in a good mood today. It’s getting late. You go home first. I’m staying here.”
Speaking of this, Winnie remembered one thing and put down the cutlery she was holding.
“Have you talked to Megan?”
“I talked to her last night. She was sad and cried.”
Brian said and that was one of the reason he wanted Winnie to stay.
“She will be fine. Megan likes crying but she was strong.”
“Go home. I’ll help clean up and go back to my room to sleep.”
Winnie felt sad too, but she could do nothing about it.
“There is no room for you, you go back too. The hourly cleaner will come and clean up tomorrow, so we
don’t have to do it ourselves.”
Before Brian objected, Kevin said.
He was helping his friend, and it was up to Brian to decide what to do next.
“There’s one room that Daenerys got ready for me.”
Winnie retorted.
“We have one master bedroom and two guest bedrooms. Daenerys and I sleep in separate rooms.
Yours has been taken over by Oscar. Go back, both of you. It’s time for me to go to bed.”
Kevin looked at the silent Brian and wanted to kick him, because he did not make a move.
“All right, then, I’ll go back.”
“Mr. Bennet, I will go with you. I have something to talk to you.”
Winnie had to go home.
She and Brian went out together. Before reaching the elevator, she took out the mobile phone. Brian
asked.
“Who are you calling at this late hour?”
“A driver. I can’t drive, I’m drunk.”
As Winnie’s voice fell, Brian grabbed Winnie’s mobile phone.
“Albert is downstairs. He takes us back.”
After saying that, Brian naturally took Winnie’s hand and continued to walk towards the elevator.
“I can’t always have you helped me. I’d better call the driver.”
Winnie was forced to keep up with the footsteps of Brian, but she refused him.
As Winnie spoke, Brian had walked into the elevator, which began to descend.
“Give me my phone.”
Winnie asked for the phone, but Brian did not respond, so she reached out to take it. Brian raised the
phone directly.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take you to the hilltop villa. I’ll leave as soon as I drop you off.”
Of course, Brian could guess Winnie’s mind, but he really wanted to take her home, the home of only
the two of them.
Winnie was embarrassed and gave up grabbing her phone.
Winnie thought she was in a good state today and didn’t drink much. But when she was out of the door,
the cool breeze made her want to vomit.
She ran to the dustbin and threw up.
Brian followed closely behind and patted Winnie’s back.
“You drank a lot. You are tormenting yourself.”
Brian said to Winnie, feeling distressed for her.
Winnie took a breath, bent over and gasped heavily.
“Better?”
As Brian’s voice fell, Winnie vomited again.
Brian continued to pat her back, and then hurried to the car to get a bottle of water. He remembered
that Winnie could not stand the taste in mouth after vomiting.
“Rinse the smell out of your mouth or you’ll vomit again.”
Brian passed the water to Winnie. She felt much better after gargling.
Winnie was supported by Brian and came to the car. As Brian reached out and opened the door,
Winnie threw up again before she could get in the car.
After that, Winnie was weak and had stomachache and sore throat.
In the car, Winnie leaned her head against the seat back of the co-pilot, feeling limp.
“I thought I will be fine, but the wine is strong.”
Winnie whispered and only Brian could hear her.
“I told you not to drink, now you regret it. Don’t drink so much in the future.”
As he spoke, Brian lifted Winnie up and let her lean on his shoulder.
“All right, let me borrow your shoulder for a moment. Your shoulders are more comfortable than this.”
Winnie said, pointing to the back of the seat she had just reclined against.
Drinking tortured her body, but her heart was relaxed. Brian’s care could make her happy for a while.
Every time she drank, this man would appear in front of her. Sometimes they quarreled, but Winnie felt
happy even if they quarreled.
Leaning on his shoulder, she did not want to move, but...
“Do you have monitoring in this car? Will Wendy see this?”
Winnie’s words upset Brian. However, it was Albert who was driving answered Winnie.
“There’s nothing in our car. Miss Yup won’t know it. Even if she knows it, it doesn’t matter. Mr. Bennet’s
shoulders were for you.”
Albert felt distressed when listening to Winnie’s words. Although it was just a casual joke, it was
enough to see how much influence the netizens’ abuse had on Winnie.
“Well, his shoulders are for me? Then I will be unscrupulous.”
Winnie smiled and looked up at Brian. She felt Brian more handsome when she was drunk.
“You don’t belong to me, you don’t love me, but please temporarily lend me your shoulder, I will give
you back when I get home.”
Winnie said sadly and leaned on Brian’s shoulder again.
“I have something to tell you.”
Winnie remembered what Oscar had told her.
“Go ahead.”
Brian said. He felt distressed for Winnie that she could not have his heart and could only borrow his
shoulder temporarily.
“I have a problem. I can get into the prison’s surveillance. It belongs to the state and I can’t break the
state system.”
Winnie’s hacking skills were unbeatable, but she had her principle. As long as it involved the
government or it was illegal, she would not do it.
“What happened to Penny?”
When it came to prison, Brian thought only of Penny.
“Yes, it is Penny. Remember I told you someone had given her a single room?”
Brian forgot to check that. At that time, he wanted to tell Albert to check, but he was disturbed and had
forgotten it.
“Yes, but it was not me. I am not that kind to her.”
Brian answered Winnie with certainty.
“Two days ago Oscar went to see Penny and met a...”
Winnie repeated what Oscar had said, and then put forward her request.
“Look up who the man is. I think he must be Richard’s friend.”
“Albert, do you hear that, check it tomorrow.”
Brian was nervous. That man was indeed suspicious. Winnie would be in danger if Richard was
involved.
“I know, Mr. Bennet. I’ll give you the news at noon tomorrow.”
Albert answered with confident, because it was easy.
Winnie felt more at ease after hearing Brian’s command. She did not speak again and fell asleep after
a while.
The car was parked in the underground parking lot. Brian got out of the car and tried to carry Winnie
upstairs, but Winnie woke up.
“I’ll go up by myself.”
Winnie picked up her bag. She felt top-heavy, but she was conscious.
“I’ll take you up.”
Brian was worried if Winnie went upstairs alone, afraid that she continued to vomit. He picked up
Winnie without asking Winnie for agreement.
“There you go again. This is where the picture was taken. Put me down and I can walk back myself.”
Winnie was anxious, she did not want to bear Wendy’s attack again. She had been exhausted because
of Penny and Wendy and she had no extra energy to deal with them.
In other words, she was tired and became timid. She just wanted to live her life quietly with Brian in her
heart. She would not fight with Penny and Wendy for Brian.
“I promise you it will never happen again, and I will never spare anyone if it happens
again.”
“| know, Mr. Bennet. I'll give you the news at noon tomorrow.”
Albert answered with confident, because it was easy.
