Felix did not expect Winnie would say that in a justified manner and did not expect she was afraid of
him being cold.
"You remember now that you are a parent, just like Brian. When you had surrogates, you should have
thought that the kids could not be with you. What's the use of a mother's love now?"
Felix involuntarily raised his voice.
"I didn't expect Luke would lead a life like that, and I didn't want to disturb his life. I knew Luke was my
child very early, but I got along with him as an aunt. I didn't mean anything else. I didn't mean to use my
children to get close to Brian. I just want my children to be happy and healthy."
Winnie didn't know how to made Felix believe her, but anyway, her only purpose was to be with the
children.
She continued.
“I know I should not get into your life, but I did not know the father was Brian, when I realized that, I
could not leave because we have the children.”
“Chairman, I have no other requirement, I just want to see the children growing up.”
“You are selfish. If you stay with the children, you will cause inconvenience to others. If you stay here,
how can Brian get married? If you stay, you are a kind of harm to his wife. You are sensible, don’t you
think you are hurting others?”
Felix said angrily and he knew Winnie had her reason.
He thanked her to save Luke, but he did not think she should have hidden her identity as a mother.
“I may be selfish, and I do will harm his wife, I am not doing it on purpose. I have no intention to hurt
anyone since I was born. If I am sinister, I would not have harmed by Penny and almost lost my life and
I would not have defiled by Wendy.”
Winnie refuted. She had no intention to hurt anyone from the beginning and did not mean to do harm
others on purpose, but she had been enduring it.
“Chairman, you may think I am quibbling, I better stop.”
At this, she stopped and then looked at Felix firmly.
“Chairman, I have no motive to Brian and to the Bennet Group. I only want the children. Please allow
me to take them away, and will not affect Brian’s life.”
This was why she came to see Felix and it was the only reason.
“No way, they are the children of the Bennet family, no one is allowed to take them away.”
Felix shouted angrily. He would not even give her the custody, how could he allow her to take them
away?
“Chairman, don’t be angry, I hope you can think for the children. I don’t want them for a lifetime, after
all, they are Bennets. I can let them break the relationship with the Bennet family. Only when I take
them away, Brian could have a peaceful life and everyone could feel relieved.”
“I want to raise them up. When they are independent, I will give you back. I don’t want to live under the
guidance of a stepmother at this small age and feel wrong. I don’t want to endure something that they
should not endure. Chairman, please think it over for the sake of the children.”
Felix was angry, but Winnie insisted her thought fearlessly. Felix had his bottom line, she had too, she
must protect two children.
“No way, I will not give the children to anyone, just give up.”
Felix insisted too. In his view, the best way was that Winnie left, but her words touched his nerve.
Did he make decision standing at the foot of the children? If they parted with their mother, they would
always cry, could he stand it? What if they ask him for their mother? What if they complained?
What if their stepmother was like Penny or Wendy? Did the children have to take this risk?
“Chairman, let’s take about it separately. Can you give me the children first? I will educate them well.
As for if I can leave with the children, we will talk about it when we have difficulties.”
Seeing that Felix had tough attitude, she had to compromise. But this was her bottom line, she could
not separate with the children.
“It is the same thing to me, it has no need to talk about it separately.”
“Leave with your aunt and sister, I will give you enough money to spend in the rest of your life.”
Felix made the final decision. He did not want to hear any quibble anymore and did not want to sway
his heart because of her words.
Speaking of the money, Winnie gave an irony smile. It seemed that the rich only had one way to solve
the problem and they were proud that they could use money to fix anything.
Brian was the same. And Wendy had used money to ask her to leave, and now Felix did it too.
Did they take money all-purpose, or did they think she could be taken care of with money?
“Chairman, it is not a short time we get along, I think you will understand me, but I was wrong.”
“Sorry, Chairman, I am capable to earn money to support my family. With my hands, I will not be
starved, so I won’t take your money, I only want my children.”
Winnie repeated her purpose. She had no other way but had to insisted her thought.
“Winnie, you are stubborn. Your behavior…”
Felix got up angrily, but he did not expect that Winnie had the courage to interrupt him at this moment.
“I have my consideration. If I don’t care about your feeling, the ten millions of employees of the Bennet
Group, Rufus and Stella, I would have agreed to Brian to leave with him.”
Winnie was domineering, she was not afraid of Felix’s anger. She thought when Felix was domineering,
she could not fear, or she could have her children back.
She had to threat Felix, because she had no mean to frighten Felix.
“Are you threatening me?”
Felix looked at Winnie with distain and said coldly. He did not expect that she had such courage.
“I am not, I am just telling you the truth. Chairman, again, I don’t want anything but the children.”
Winnie was tough in attitude. Even if Felix’s eyes were sharp, she did not shrink back. She was a
mother, she had to be tough.
She could give up on anyone and everything, she could give up on Brian and even her life, but she
could not give up two children.
Felix was speechless. After glancing Winnie with hatred, he turned and left.
He was surprised at Winnie’s attitude. She was more persistent than Brian. She said she could give on
everything for the children, it seemed that she was pulling teeth in the mouth of a tiger for the children.
She was using her life to express her tough attitude.
If he did not allow her to be with the children, would she take away Brian?
He had been thinking about it for a whole afternoon after he was back home, but he got nothing. Brian
came to him at night.
To be honest, seeing Brian’s cold face and his tough attitude, he was helpless.
He felt that everyone was going against him. He was in his 90s, but he had to fight alone.
“Grandpa, I don’t want anything, I just want Winnie to live with the children. Is that ok?”
Brian begged, his attitude was tough, but he was suppressing his anger.
Felix did not speak, because everyone was saying the same thing to him, and his answer would be the
same, so he did not want to waste his energy to answer them one by one.
“Grandpa, what on earth do you want? You parted them, do you think it is good for the children?”
Seeing that his grandpa said nothing, Brian was anxious. He could not guarantee how long he could
control his emotion.
But Felix was still silent.
Brian’s endurance had reached to his limit.
“Grandpa, I know what you mean. So you don’t agree Winnie to be with the children?”
“Since you don’t agree, I will do it on my way. I will refuse the girl I had blind date with. As for the
Bennet Group, if you don’t trust anyone, you can deal with it by your own.”
“I will give up everything for the sake of my children.”
With that, Brian turned and was to leave.
At this hour, Felix spoke.
“Think it over. Who will take the responsibility if you do that? If you want Winnie disappear and the
children lost their mother forever, you can leave now.”
Felix said coldly but his attitude was tough. Hearing what Brain said, he was panic, but he did not show
it but threaten him.
But Brian was not a puppet which was controlled by him. He had his ability and he could do anything.
He turned around, there was no pity but resilience and confidence on his face.
“You don’t agree Winnie to be with the children and the children will lost their mother, you can’t threaten
me with this. And since I had made the decision to leave the Bennet Group, to leave you, I am capable
to take the responsibility for my behavior. I have the ability to protect the people I want to protect.”
“Grandpa, if you don’t want to break relationship with me, do it, and I will see if the four of my family
could be survive happily.”
After the confrontation, Brian strode away but heard Felix’ anxious voice from behind.
“I have not made the final decision yet. I am still thinking about it.”
But Brian did not stop because of his words, but he looked more relaxing. His grandfather’s words
proved that his threat played its role.
