Megan was indeed sad and wrong about her Great Grandpa’s attitude, but she was calm and
expressed her thought taking the opportunity.
“Great Grandpa, Daddy and Mommy told you the truth because I required to come back the Bennet
family and wanted to be with you as a child of the Bennet family. If you don’t like me, pretend Daddy
and Mommy had said nothing.”
Megan’s word hit Felix’s heart like a stone. The child was innocent and she should not bear the
responsibility.
He had been like Megan and wished she was a Bennet.
Felix took a deep breath and then got up.
“Winnie, come with me to the study.”
Felix was old but he said it in a domineering manner.
“Grandpa…”
Brian was worried, he thought it should be him to take the responsibility, but his grandpa asked Winnie
to go with him, and he could not control it.
He wanted to stop that, but Winnie sad, “It is ok, you take care of the children.”
Winnie whispered.
It was within her expectation. Brian and two children were Bennet family, even if Felix was angry, he
would do nothing to them, so only she sacrificed.
After taking a look at the children, she followed Rufus to his study.
In the study, Winnie supported Felix to sit down. Felix did not like that, but she insisted to let him sit
down, he was the elderly after all. And it was her fault that she had been concealed it for a long time.
After Felix sat down, Winnie went to close the door and then stood in the front of Felix.
Felix sat at the desk, and Winnie stood in the front of the desk.
Seeing that Winnie was calm, Felix was angry.
“Is that true?”
Felix asked coldly.
“Yes, if you don’t believe it, I can the children to do paternity test.”
Winnie said frankly, because she felt steadfast after telling him the truth. It was up to Felix who he dealt
with it.
“When did you know?”
Felix asked.
Then Winnie told him what had happened, after that, Felix got furious and knocked at the ground with
his crane.
“You have known it for a long time, but you did not tell me. why? Why did you conceal it from me?”
The door was closed, but his angry voice could be heard, people in the living room was worried.
Brian wanted to go in, but Rufus stopped him.
“You can’t go in, Brian, don’t you know your grandpa? If you go in, he will be angrier at Winnie.”
“Wait, I believe Winnie can take care of it.”
Rufus was serious. He was considerate and thoughtful.
“Brian, Dad is right, Winnie can take care of it.”
Joshua came to Brian, patted his shoulder and appeased him.
“Daddy, don’t be impulsive. I go overhear at the door and I will help Mommy when necessary.”
Luke said in a tender but strong voice. Be believed that his Great Grandpa would not be angry at
Mommy because of him, after all he was a child.
“Ok, go protect Mommy.”
Brian agreed with Luke. He believed his son’s ability and his grandpa would not blame him.
Winnie and he had been prepared on the way home, but he did not expect Grandpa would ask Winnie
to go with him, so their plan did not work and it could only depend on Winnie.
Luke came to the door of the study.
Felix and Winnie still talked in the study.
“Chairman, it was me concealed it to you. I was afraid that two children could not be together and I
can’t be company with them.”
Winnie took all the responsibility. In face of domineering Felix, she just told the truth.
“Aren’t you afraid now? You are ambitious, Winnie.”
Felix said coldly with distain.
Winnie understood his meaning, but she did not agree.
“I know what you mean, but if I am ambitious, Wendy and Penny would not have showed up and I
would not have suffered a lot.”
“It is not my decision to tell you the truth, I would rather stay with the two children like this, but Mr.
Bennet insisted to tell you the truth, so I have to do so.”
Winnie was still calm. She tried to calm herself to answer Felix’s question.
“Why did he want to tell the truth? Because of you?”
Felix asked. Now he was suspicious about everything.
“No, it is because of the children, maybe there are other reasons.”
“I know it is Brian’s uncle. He…”
“Thomas?”
Felix had doubts and uneasy.
“I don’t know what had happened between them, I only knew that Uncle Thomas went to the prison to
see Penny and gave her good living condition.”
“Penny knows that Megan and Luke are my children. Mr. Bennet said he was afraid that Penny would
tell Uncle Thomas and Uncle Thomas would use this point to make troubles, so he decided to tell you
first.”
“That was what he said. I don’t want to make it hard for him, so I agreed.”
Winnie told Felix what she knew. She noticed that when she mentioned Uncle Thomas, Felix’s face got
dark.
Winnie stopped and waited Felix to ask her again, but he was silent.
“Chairman, if you don’t want to accept Megan, we can continue to conceal it and don’t mention it to
anyone. We wanted you to have mental preparation. I can raise her and don’t use your money.”
“And Luke, if you agree, I can take two children to leave B City and will never come back to disturbed
Mr. Bennet.”
Winnie expressed her attitude, or Felix would think she had motives.
“You can’t take the children away. Only you can leave.”
Felix warmed Winnie coldly.
“Winnie, you should know the consequence before you told me the truth. Don’t say you have not
thought about it.”
“I do, and I have guessed and I can only leave alone, but I won’t leave. the children can’t live without
me, and I can’t live without them. I…”
“Winnie.”
Felix was angry and knocked at the desk. He was in his 90s, but he was still domineering.
Seeing that Felix was angry, Winnie wanted to appease him, for fear that he would pass out.
“Don’t be angry, Chairman. I didn’t say it right.”
Winnie apologized, but she did not take back her words, she insisted to guard her children.
Felix was panting. He looked at Winnie angrily and did not continue.
There was a moment of silence in the study and then Felix said in a cold voice.
“You don’t need to raise the children. Go back to your home now and you are not allowed to come to
my house.”
“Bring Brian to me.”
Felix decided what to do after he asked Brian about it.
Winnie had expected that, but she could not give up. Not Felix was angry, she could look for a chance
when he was not angry anymore.
“I am leaving, please take of the two children.”
With that, she left the study. When she opened the door, she found Luke standing at the door.
“Mommy, I am going home with you.”
Luke had heard the conversation. If Mommy went home alone, she would not be able to fall asleep
tonight.
Winnie squatted down and stroke Luke’s head.
“I can go home alone. Megan has not recovered, you are her brother and should stay to take care of
her. Don’t worry, I am ok.”
With that, she took Luke’s hand and walked to the living room. Their conversation had been heard by
Felix and his mood was affected.
It was too sudden and he could not accept it and he did not know what to do.
But he was sure that Winnie could not leave with two children.
When Winnie came to the living room, Brian came over.
“Did Grandpa make it a hard time for you?”
Brian asked with concern.
“No, he didn’t.”
Winnie forced a smile, for fear that Brian would be angry with Chairman.
“What did he say?”
Brain asked.
“He asked me to go home first. I will call you later, Chairman is waiting for you in the living room.”
Winnie did not want Felix to wait too long, or he would think she had said something she should not
say.
“Don’t leave. Wait for me.”
Brain was worried and then walked to the study.
Winnie called him at this time.
“Brian, don’t be angry. Do as he said, he is old.”
Winnie was worried that Brian would anger Felix, so she had to remind him. No matter what the result
was, he could not make Felix get angry and sick.
