Hearing that, Brian could only keep silent, because he had something that could not be known.
He admitted that he was doing wrong, but because of too many responsibilities, he could not do what
he wanted and could not be with the woman he loved.
If Uncle Thomas had no selfish interest in the Bennet Group, and if he could guarantee the safety of
tens of thousands of employees, he was willing to give up the Bennet Group and leave with his beloved
people.
If grandpa did not take the Yup Group and Wendy to threaten him, he would rather break up with
Wendy and be with the woman he loved.
For all of this, he had tormented the people he loved most.
“I was disappointed in all the ways Wendy behaved. She will disgrace you if she marries you. You
return to the suburbs because of Winnie, but she shamelessly claim credit from me.”
“She made Winnie be scolded by the whole nation by her backstabbing, but she came to me and said
that Winnie is dirty and unfit to raise the children. Let me give her the children. There is no bottom line,
how can she bring up a child like that?”
Felix said to Brian, but he did not metion Winnie’s necklace, because he did not want Brian to know
that he met Winnie.
“I don’t know that, how she could do that?”
Brian was more disappointed at Wendy. It seemed that Wendy was not an honest woman.
How could she do such a thing behind his back? Had she not given up attacking Winnie?
“If you go on a blind date, Winnie can come with her child. It’s a quid pro quo and there’s no
alternative.”
Felix told Brian his idea directly.
He thought that since Brian did not have deep feelings for Wendy, it would be the same for him to
marry anyone. Although the development of the Yup Group was fast, its foundation was not solid
enough, so he would rather find a more powerful one.
Brian was embarrassed and was forced by his grandfather again and again, he did not know what to
do.
He came here for the reason that he could spend New Year with Winnie. But Grandpa made everything
complicated.
Grandpa’s attitude was very clear that he would not accept Wendy. But why he was greedy about the
Yup Group?
What should he do? Should he go to a blind date so that he could spend New Year with Winnie?
Drinking too much alcohol was bad.
Emily had not been awake, but she had to open her eyes because of a headache. But as her
consciousness became clearer and clearer, she suddenly stood up and looked around in amazement.
This was not her bedroom, this was not her home. It was clean and tidy, like a hotel, but it had a warm
feeling.
She looked around, wondering why she was there. She tried to remember what happened last night,
but she did not remember anything.
She told Leo to help her find a driver, it must be the driver send her here. Thinking of this, Emily
suddenly had a bad feeling and quickly looked down at her clothes.
After felt more panic after that.
She had clothes on, which was reassuring. But she was not wearing her own clothes. Where were her
clothes? Who changed her clothes?
Emily could not calm down, and then got up to see if she could find someone.
As soon as she got out of bed, Leo walked out of the dressing room, making Emily retreat twice.
“Are you a ghost? How can you walk without making any sound?”
Emily was obviously frightened by Leo’s sudden appearance.
“I thought I’d be careful not to disturb you.”
Leo said gently.
“You......Why I am here? Why are you here? Where is this place?”
Emily did not continue to tangle whether there was a sound walking.
She was now more concerned about what happened last night, why she was with Leo.
Leo did not rush to answer Emily, but found a bathrobe to wrap Emily.
Now Emily was wearing a shirt of Leo, which was very loose on her body. If her fruity and firm chests
not hid, Leo’s heartbeat would be wild.
Her lower body was undressed and only covered by the wide shirt. Her buttocks were covered, but her
delicate slender legs could be seen.
If Leo did not wrap her, he could not be a gentleman.
Only then did Emily realize that she had no clothes on, and the setting sun drenched her body.
She quickly wrapped herself up in the bathrobe. Subsequently she stared at Leo angrily.
“Answer my question.”
Leo calm himself down and then said.
“This is my home. You’re here because I would be worried if you were sent back home by a drink when
you were drunk.”
“Then you can send me home, how did you bring me to your home? Rascal, what did you do to me?”
Emily did not accept Leo’s kindness. She had different idea with Leo, she thought driver was safer than
Leo.
“I never thought of that. Next time I will send you home.”
Leo jokingly said. Seeing that Emily was anxious, he felt funny and gave a smile.
In fact, he wanted to send her home, but it was too late, if her parents saw her to be drunk, they must
be worried. That was why Leo took Emily back to his home.
“You...”
“Don’t worry, I did bring you back, but I promise I didn’t do anything to you.”
Leo explained. If he did not explain, Emily might have punched at him.
“You were so drunk, your clothes were all dirty, and you would be sick if you didn’t change your
clothes.”
“Who changed my clothes?”
Emily believed that she vomited, because it happened every now and then.
“My female housekeeper. I was not there, don’t worry.”
Leo thought he was a gentleman. He now had broken up with Emily, and he could not take advantage
of her.
“But why did you come out of the room?”
Emily was confused that Leo came out from the bathroom.
“I shied away when you were changing, and then I came in. I’ve been in the same room with you ever
since I was afraid you’d need someone to take care of you.”
Leo told the truth that he had not done anything but was simply worried about Emily.
“In the same room? In my bed?”
No way, nothing happened since they were in a bed?
“I’ve been lying on the couch and you’ve been sleeping in my bed, that’s all.”
Leo was pretty sure he didn’t do anything, although last night Emily hugged him and almost made him
lose his mind. But Leo still controlled himself, fearing that Emily would regret it when she woke up.
“That is all?”
Emily questioned.
“Yes.”
Emily looked at Leo’s frank expression and believed him for the time being. But she suddenly realized
a big problem and got panic.
“You just said this is your house and I slept in your room. How can I explain this to your parents? We’ve
broken up. What do they think of me when they see me in your room?”
Emily was so worried and agitated. If his parents saw that, they must think that she was an
unscrupulous girl. She had broken up with him, but still slept in his bed.
“Then get married. No need to explain if you are their daughter-in-law.”
Leo was surprised but his own words. He liked to make a joke, but never regardless of the occasion.
Leo was frightened by his words, but Emily did not feel it was terrible, because she knew that Leo was
making a joke, even if it was true, he had his reason.
But she must not be part of the reason.
Emily calmed down and gave a hum with disdain.
“Are you kidding me? You don’t love me, don’t make fun of me.”
“Leo, I have something to tell you.”
“I don’t blame Winwin for what happened between you and Winnie. Although Winwin and I have not
known each other for a long time, we get along very well.”
“I hope you can tell Winwin that I have broken up with you. I can’t always lie to her, it will affect my
relationship with Winwin.”
Emily wanted to break away from Leo. Sooner or later, she could not help him. It would be good to stop
procrastinating early.
Emily paused before she continued.
“I can bear to lose a man who doesn’t love me, but I don’t want to lose Winwin as a friend.”
Emily’s attitude was firm. In her view, it was not a bid deal to lose a man who did not love her, but it
would be sad to lose friend because of this man.
Leo was embarrassed, because it was not suitable to say that because of their relationship, although it
was just a joke.
“What I just said was thoughtless. Please forgive me if I offended you. I’ll do it as soon as you say, but I
need your help in the near future.”
“I can see the relationship between you and Winwin, and I will not let you lose your friendship because
of me.”
Leo stopped smiling. To Emily, he was an irresponsible liar without credibility.
He knew that Emily was sad because of his lie. But he always had a feeling that he didn’t want to lose
Emily, and that feeling grew stronger.
