Jack was straightforward, to save time so that Brian would not show up suddenly, and he was afraid
that Winnie would refuse him.
It was cheeky, but the most important thing was to ask Winnie out.
“I...”
Winnie was embarrassed, but her phone rang suddenly. Winnie was relieved to hear the phone.
“Excuse me, I have to answer the phone.”
Winnie picked up the phone and found it was Felix calling. She felt that she should avoid Jack.
“It is my leader, it must be something urgent. I am sorry, let’s take a rain check.”
Winnie found an excuse to leave quickly. Although Jack tried to ask her to stay, she did not look back.
Winnie went back to the car. The phone had been hung up, and Winnie called back.
“Sorry, Chairman, I was convenient to answer the phone.”
“Are you convenient now?”
Felix’ was serious and cold.
“Yes.”
Winnie quietly answered.
“Brian told me to ask you to bring Megan to my home for the New Year. In fact, I like Megan very much,
but the New year...”
Felix went directly to the point. He wanted to tell Winnie what he thought, if Winnie insisted on coming
over, he would be ok with that. However, before he could finish his words, Winnie stopped him.
“Thank you for that you like Megan. New year is for union of the family, Megan and I are not suitable to
be there, or it will make everyone not at ease. I have family too and I have to stay with them. Thank
you, but we can’t be there.”
Winnie refused directly.
When Felix was in the mid of his sentence, Winnie had known the reason he called. It was a day for
family gathering, and she had no reason to be the Bennet family.
Winnie could understand that, so she did not need Felix to say something to hurt her.
Winnie was sensible, and Felix felt upset unexpectedly. He liked such people, who was smart and
sensible.
“Brian wants you to come.”
To avoid unnecessary troubles, Felix had to say so.
“Don’t worry, Chairman, I will go to A City in a few days. Even if Mr. Bennet asks me to be there, I will
not agree. Actually he had told me twice, but I refused.”
“I gottta go and have to drive now.”
Winnie guaranteed again and again and she would do that, Felix had no need to be worried.
“Ok.”
With that, Felix put down the phone, as he was to hang up the phone, Winnie spoke again.
“Chairman, I wish you and your family a happy new year.”
Hearing that, Felix felt warmed but bitter.
Emily did not feel at east. She could not lie to Winnie all the time and one day she would find out that
she had broken up with Leo.
And she could not help Leo to cheat Winnie all the time. It was not a way to fix the problem, and they
had to face the reality.
After thinking for a long time, she put the hope on Daenerys.
So she drove to Daenerys’.
But she was awkward when she saw Daenerys’ parents.
“Kevin has to work and Daenerys will give birth soon, we are worried, so we can to company her.”
Daenerys’ mother was nice.
As Emily thought her plan would fail, Daenerys’ mother said.
“You came at the right time. Please company Daenerys, we go out for shopping and we will be back
soon.”
“Ok, I will company her. You can go ahead, and I will contact you if something is wrong.”
Hearing that, Emily was pleased.
After Daenerys’ parents left, Emily helped Daenerys to the bedroom.
“How do you feel? Are you uncomfortable since you drank a lot last night?”
Daenerys asked Emily, because Emily did not look good.
“I am ok, but I have forgotten what happened last night.”
Emily was much better now, but she was in a bad mood.
“Why you look bad?”
Daenerys thought Emily did not admit it because she was drunk.
Emily sighed and her eyes became dark.
She was an optimistic person, and Daenerys had never seen her sighed, so she had a reason to be
upset.
“What happened?”
Emily sighed again and then sat down on the bedside.
…
She told Daenerys what happened between her and Leo. It hurt, but only when it was solved, she could
feel better and then get over Leo.
“How could Leo do that? It doesn’t matter he cheats on Winwin, but he could hurt you.”
Daenerys was angry and surprised, since she did not expect that.
Emily gave a bitter smile.
“I did not expect that he would use my feeling. I hate Leo, but I am happy to know you.”
“If Leo told me in the beginning, I will help him to cheat Winwin, but now I got cheated. I get along well
with Winwin, if she knows that, I am afraid that we can’t be friends, after all she got cheated. And I am
afraid she will blame herself.
Emily said what she thought. She was sad but not emotional, because she it was in vain.
“Leo was thoughtless, even if you conceal it for kindness, you can conceal it for a lifetime. You can’t
always help Leo. He is smart, but why did he do this stupid thing?”
Daenerys had not way but blame Leo.
“It is not stupid. He cares about Winwin and loves her in a different way. He wants protect her, he wants
her to have a good life.”
Emily knew everything. And she could understand that when she calmed down. But she was hurt
because his love for Winwin.
“It could be Leo’s thought, but he could make you do it for him. I am speechless about him.”
“What do you plan to do?”
Daenerys asked. Since she came, she wanted to solve the problem. Daenerys wanted to hear her
plan.
“I want Winwin to know about it. I don’t think it is respectful to conceal from her. Leo and I have broken
up and I can’t help conceal from her for a lifetime. Winwin will be angry if she knows it late.”
“Daenerys, I just want her to the know that truth and she would not be hurt. We are still friends even if
there is no Leo.”
It was a simple requirement and she did not want to continue this ridiculous lie. She wanted to get
along with Winnie with a peaceful mind.
“It is hard for you. You must be sad.”
Daenerys could understand that, and the only one got hurt was Emily. And she still thought for Winnie.
“Yes, we started our relationship from a blind date, but I would not be with him if I don’t like him. don’t
worry, there are many people break up, I can make it.”
Emily was optimistic. She endured it, but she underestimated her love for Leo.
“Daenerys. If I tell Winwin directly, I am afraid she will be sad, so please tell her. You don’t have to tell
her the reason we broke up, but the fact we broke up.”
Emily cared about her friendship with Winnie, because love made her hurt, and friendship made her
feel good.
And she could not have one-sided love as Winnie, or she would be painful for a life.
“You give up? Don’t you think it is a pity you give up on Leo?”
Daenerys felt it was a pity. They were match to be together, thought Leo loved Winnie, but he knew that
he could not be with her.
Leo would go into a new relationship sooner or later, and Emily could be his love, but he had not
noticed it. It was a pity to break up.
“No matter how good he is, I don’t think it is a pity since he doesn’t love me. Winnie is to be single for a
man, but I can’t live as her.”
“I am the writer of my life, I don’t want my life to be so miserable. I don’t think it is necessary to pay too
much for a man who doesn’t love me.”
Emily was open minded. She loved Leo and she was determined to get over Leo, but it needed time.
“It makes sense, if Winnie is like you, we don’t need to worry about her. You are right, it can’t be
concealed, I will tell Winnie some day. When it is solved, everyone could feel relieved.
“But, Emily, thank you for not blaming Winwin.”
Daenerys felt that Winnie met someone was reasonable. If Emily was like Wendy or Penny, she would
have one more enemy.
