Outside Emily's house, Leo called Brian. He told him Emily was out.
"I think I'd better tell Winwin all the things between us. One is for Emily and the other is for Winwin."
"If we don't take the initiative to tell, Winwin will hate us if she finds it out herself."
Brian was in the same car with Winnie, and when Leo spoke of it, he switched his phone to the other
ear so Winnie wouldn't hear him.
And he didn't respond and was deep in thought.
“Well, now?”
Brian asked Leo.
"Right now, come to my house and I'll send you the address. I'll call Daenerys and Kevin. If Winwin is
angry, Daenerys can talk her out of it."
Leo was thoughtful, even if he told her frankly, he was not sure that Winnie would be calm and not get
angry.
"Well, do as you wish. Send me the address and I will go there now."
Brian put down the phone and looked at Winnie.
"It's Leo's call. Let's go to his house."
"Why?"
Winnie asked doubtfully.
"You'll see."
Brian did not dare to say, and could not lie casually. That was the only way he could do.
Then his mobile phone rang and received a link to Leo's location.
He handed the phone to the driver in front of him.
"Go here."
After telling his driver, Brian began to meditate. He began to think about how to tell Winnie, how to
make her understand and less angry.
Otherwise, the hard-won relationship would be strained again.
As Winnie and Brian came to Leo’s villa, Leo had arrived home. He told the nanny to prepare dinner.
Leo gave Brian a wink, indicating that this matter would be said later. Everyone was tired from a day
and it was their first visit to his home, he wanted to tell her after having a meal.
Daenerys and Kevin hadn't arrived yet, once Winnie was angry, no one could stop her.
"It looks so sweet here. It would be nice if there is woman and a child."
Winnie looked around in the sitting room. It was not a big house, but it had the feeling of home.
"It's small. I like the style, too. When I bought it, I didn't think of my wife and children. I thought I would
be single all the time."
Talking about wife and children, Leo couldn't help thinking of Emily, as Winnie.
"Where's Emily? Why hasn’t she arrived?"
"She...She can't come today. Daenerys and Kevin will be here in a minute."
Leo was slightly nervous.
"If we'd known she couldn't come, we'd met another day."
Winnie thought it was just a simple gathering to drink together. Emily did not come, she felt lost.
At this time, Brian came behind Winnie and put his hand on Winnie's shoulder naturally.
"We'll come again when Emily has time."
"Winwin, I see you like this villa. Shall we get one?"
Brian changed the subject. Otherwise, they would have confessed before Daenerys came.
"I like it, but I don't want to get it. It just feels like my old house. When my parents were alive, my family
lived in a villa, which was about this size."
Winnie inadvertently remembered her former house and said it out unconsciously. She didn't talk much
about her family.
If Brian's memory serves him, it was the third time she had talked about her family in the more than a
year they had known each other. But every time it was cleverly interrupted, and Brian did not ask again.
"Has your villa been auctioned off to someone? Tell me where it is, I'll get it for you."
Brian still did not directly ask the specific situation of Winnie's family, he was afraid that Winnie would
be sad.
"Well, all these years have passed, there is no point in buying it back. I am living in a good house, and I
will consider changing my house when Vanessa graduates from University."
Although Winnie wanted to buy back her house, although Brian could buy the house smoothly, Winnie
did not want to owe him a favor, do not want to spend him a penny.
"Winwin, I think you should buy your house back. One is that your parents will feel relieved. The other
is that you will feel secure living there."
Leo persuaded too.
"Wait and see. I am afraid Vanessa has deep memories about it and she would always think of parents.
Once her emotion was out of control, I am afraid her illness repeated."
"I will think about it after I've communicated with her."
Winnie could only take Vanessa as an excuse, or Brian would help.
As Winnie's voice fell, Daenerys and Kevin came in.
They came in knowing they were on a mission, so they walked in looking naturally flustered.
But when they saw a few people's expressions were calm, they felt at ease.
They first chatted, and then had dinner. After dinner, Leo called them back to the living room.
Leo’s expression was serious, and he began today's main purpose.
"Winwin, I called you to come over because there is something I want to tell you."
Leo then told her why he was with Emily, why he broke up with Emily, including Emily was to go
abroad, in a word, he had not missed a bit of it......
"In fact, Emily and I have broken up. She didn't come today because she was angry with me and went
on a trip."
Winnie's head could not accept so much information. She did not expect that everything was false.
It was only after hearing this that she remembered she felt something wrong several times.
Winnie looked at Leo inconceivably at first, and then wrinkled her eyebrows. When she wanted to
determine something, Brian spoke suddenly.
"Winwin, I have something to hide from you too. In fact, my blind date is Emily. I kept it from you
because I was afraid you would know that Emily and Leo broke up. And I need Emily's help to put off
my grandpa."
Brian had to put things out, took the opportunity to deal with it in order to avoid Winnie would be sad
again.
Winnie looked at Brian angrily, and then shifted her gaze to Daenerys and Kevin. She realized that she
was supposed to be the only one who didn't know about the truth.
"You know it?"
"Yes."
Said Daenerys, in a low voice.
"So does Oscar?"
Winnie continued to ask, for she had a trace of expectation for Oscar. Even if there was a person did
not cheat her, she would feel better.
However, Kevin gave an answer which made Winnie disappointed.
"So does he."
After Kevin's voice fell, Winnie falls into silence. For a moment her eyes glazed over and she did not
know where to look.
Brian was worried.
“Winwin...”
"Now I realize that I am a burden to all of you. I thought I lived very hard and did not need anyone's
help. But you are there for me all the time, and I didn't even know it."
Winnie did not lose her temper or get angry. But her tone was lifeless.
She understood why they did it, but she could not accept herself being like a fool.
"Emily was used for me. You've been working hard to hide it for me. How can I return this favor? How
can I deal with my guilt to Emily?"
"I have brought trouble to all of you. It seems that I am a very big trouble. In the future, I will stay away
from you so as not to bring trouble to you."
Winnie seemed have no soul. She hated to owe others, whether it was favor or money, she had
shadow of it.
Winnie wanted to be quiet, to think why she lived such a failure. So she got up and went straight
outside without speaking to anyone.
“Winwin...”
Brian called her behind, but Winnie made a sound to stop him.
"I'm going out for a breath of air and I'll be back."
She did not allow anyone to follow her. Winnie walked out of the villa and walked on the road alone.
Although she had accidentally hurt Emily, Winnie was still the one who blamed herself most. Emily was
in pain, but she laughed heartlessly, how could she face Emily?
What was more ridiculous was that Brian's blind date was Emily actually. Emily was the most satisfied
granddaughter-in-law candidate actually to Felix.
Winnie suddenly laughed at herself. She seemed to have said that someone with Emily's family
background was the most suitable for Brian.
It was a joke then, but now it was true.
What should she do? At the moment, too many things made her confused, too many things had
become her pressure.
How should she thank Emily, how should she face Emily?
Winnie had been depressed and had been unable to find the answer.
Just as she was worrying about what to do, a car passed her and then backed up.
"Miss Chambers, why are you here?"
Stephen asked Winnie in surprise.
For a split second, he thought he was mistaken. With uncertain he backed up to have a look, and it was
really Winnie.
Winnie was surprised to see Stephen.
"I come to a friend, do you come to your friend too?"
Winnie managed to brace herself to make her mood seem less depressed.
"My house is right here. I come back to pick up a few things and go to the restaurant. I didn't expect to
meet you."
"You just come or want to leave? If you want to leave, I can send you back."
Stephen was enthusiastic, but Winnie was in a daze on the side of the road and she did not seem like a
new arrival here.
"I...I'm leaving. Give me a ride."
With that, Winnie opened the door and got into his car.
In the car, Winnie's mood could not change, but she was better.
"Just take me to the nearest bus stop."
Winnie felt sorry to bother Stephen to send , after all, he was busy.
"I will send you wherever you go, and I can do that as a friend."
How could Winnie go to the crowded bus? Besides there were few buses and it was getting dark. A
woman being alone was not safe.
"Sorry to cause you trouble. You still have business in the restaurant, don't waste time because of me."
Winnie said in a low and persistent voice.
