Thomas said a few words, but Felix was still silent, listening quietly with his eyes fixed in the magazine,
but he frowned.
Thomas continued.
“Brian is not small and he should get married. Let him marry Wendy, so that she could take care of
Luke.”
Thomas spoke for Wendy, but he did not it was late.
With that, he stopped.
At this time, Felix finally raised his head and took off his glassed. He looked at Thomas seriously.
“Have you finished speaking?”
“Yes, it has to be solved immediately, if it holds on…”
“My turn then.”
Felix interrupted him indifferently.
“The engagement between Wendy and Brain has been cancelled and they have broken up.”
“Why?”
Thomas and surprised and asked before Felix had finished his words.
“Because she hurt Megan.”
Felix answered coldly and Thomas was confused about it.
“What does it related to us, she did not hurt Luke.”
“It is equal to go against me, and I will not accept her.”
“Dad, I don’t understand. When did you become so concerned about Megan. She is not our kid, why
did you give up Wendy for her?”
Thomas did not understand why his father had changed his attitude. If he was good to Megan, it was
equal to that he had accepted Winnie.
“I will tell you why.”
“Megan is Brian’s daughter, Luke’s sister, sure I am concerned about her.”
Felix’s eyes were sharp and domineering.
“What? …”
At the middle of his sentence, Thomas stopped and looked at Felix with surprise.
Megan was Brian’s daughter, Luke’s sister, and she was at the same age as Luke.
“They are twins?”
Thomas asked.
“Yes, they are twins. Luke is brother and Megan is sister, they are Bennets.”
Felix was sure about that, because he had read the paternity test report.
“I don’t know that. Brian has been hiding it… Wait, since they are twins, Winnie is the mother?”
Thomas asked, and there was anger in his heart.
“Yes, she is Luke’s mother.”
Felix answered.
“Well…”
Thomas was so shocked.
He felt they had unusual relationship, but he did not expect that Megan was a Bennet, and Winnie was
Luke’s mother, so everything made sense.
If he was right, he was the last one to know the truth, Penny and Richard might have known about it.
“He had been hiding it, why did he make it public now?”
He asked feeling he got fooled.
“Because Penney and Wendy know it. If they say it out, there may be bad for us, so Brian told me.”
Hearing that, Thomas and angry and nervous.
He was angry because Penny and Wendy did not tell him the truth, he was nervous because his father
mentioned Penny, it was like a warming to him.
“It is ridiculous, I can’t accept it.”
Thomas tired to hide his panic.
“But it is good to say it out, or Penny will make to trick to our family. In this way, I will protect Megan,
and no one dare make a move.”
Felix indirectly warmed Thomas, hoping he could understand and did nothing.
Thomas sure could understand, but he had an opinion to his father.
After leaving the study, he left the house in a hurry.
As he left, Jack came back.
He was happy to see Megan and Luke, and Megan reminded her of Winnie.
“Good you have come back. We are going to have dinner, go and wash your hand.”
Before he said a word to the kids, Stella told him it was time for dinner.
Everyone sat at the table, but all the servant including Butler Lowe were standing by the table, waiting
for admonitory talk.
“I have a thing a announce before the dinner, I …”
“Grandpa, why are you so serious, it makes me nervous. If it is a good news, go ahead, but if it is not,
don’t say it, or it will affect out appetite.”
Jack interrupted Felix, and after that he found his grandpa was watching him sharply.
“Jack, Grandpa is speaking, don’t interrupt him.”
Maria found Felix was serious, so she scolded Jack.
“Dad, go ahead, don’t mind this insensible child.”
Felix took a deep breath and then continued.
“Megan is our kid. Her name is Megan Bennet. She and Luke are twins, and their mother is Winnie. So
we get a miss in our family, you all should take care of her.”
Felix said word by word. The servants were surprised but no one dared to asked anything but agreed
to what Felix said.
“Yes, Chairman, we will take care of Miss Megan.”
But Maria and Megan were so shocked to hear that and they needed time to digest it, especially Jack.
He could not believe it and did not want to believe it.
“You are kidding, Grandpa, how can they be twins?”
“I am not kidding, they are twins, and Megan is our kid.”
Stella said. And then Felix told everyone to eat.
But Jack was not in a mood to eat.
Thomas went straight to Richard and wanted to ask him how much he had hidden.
Thomas kicked open the door and broke in the house.
He stared at Richard angrily.
“What is going on?”
Richard asked with doubts.
“You dare ask me that, huh? What is going on with Winnie’s kids? What did you hide from me?“
Thomas shouted angrily.
Hearing that, Richard knew that Thomas had learn the identities of the children.
“So you know it, but I didn’t hide it. I learnt it recently and I just did not have time to tell you.”
“Bullshit, you have known it for a long time and you use it to make me help you.”
Thomas shouted angrily, and it was to make Richard’s ears deaf.
“I…”
“Don’t argue, you know it and you daughter knows it.”
Thomas did not give Richard a chance to refute.
Richard looked at him with guilt and did not know what to say.
“Richard, I violated the law to help you, but you hid the truth from me? Do you know you have
destroyed my plan? If you told me early, I can use it on Brian.”
Thomas was furious and wanted to punch at Richard’s face.
“You family has known about it?”
Richard asked.
“Yes, they all know it and I am the last one to know it. We could use it to threat Brain, but you hid it from
me. Now we lost the chance. Is this what you want?”
Thomas said angrily, panting. It was not only a chance to him, but also lost the Bennet Group.
“Thomas, calm down. I do know it and wanted to use it to threat Brian, but I didn’t expect he would say
it first, and destroy our plan.”
Richard regretted and he had lost such an opportunity.
“Do you think it is easy to deal with Brain. He is cautious. We got a chance, but you waste it.”
“Richard, I don’t care what will happen to you and I will not go to prison to see your daughter again.”
With that, he was to leave, but was stopped by Richard.
“Don’t be angry, Thomas, it was my bad. Don’t get Penny involved, please go and see her.”
“If I see her again, I will be caught too. Brian must have known I went to see Penny, so he said the fact
out. If I see her again, Brain will do something to me.”
“You have missed the opportunity, take care of yourself.”
Then he left.
He now regretted to be connected with Richard. He should not help him but should reply on his own,
otherwise it would not be so passive.
Rufus was alone at home, thinking about Isobel.
He could not control himself and he had to tell her about Megan, so he made a call to her.
Isobel was not at home but had dinner out with some friends.
Seeing that Rufus called, she got up and picked up the phone in a quiet corner.
“What is it?”
She asked in a cold voice.
“I have something to tell you, or I will not call you.”
Hearing her voice, Rufus missed her more. If possible, if Isobel agreed, he would like to call her even if
there was nothing to tell her. He just wanted to hear her voice.
“What?”
“It is about the children. Megan has been recognized by the Bennet family.”
Rufus went straight to the point, because he knew Isobel did not want to waste time.
“What do you mean?”
Isobel was nervous and her hand on the phone tightened.
“Now the Bennet family know Megan is a Bennet and Winnie is the mother of two
children.”
Hearing her voice, Rufus missed her more. If possible, if Isobel agreed, he would like to call her even if
