It happened years ago, and Penny did not know it. At that time, she was studying abroad and did not
know Brian.
“What shall I do then? He keeps asking me for details. I can't tell.”
Having heard no useful news, Wendy was obviously worried.
“Ask his uncle. They're family. He might know it.”
Penny gave advice to Wendy. Seeing that Wendy had such a good opportunity, she was worried. If it
were she, she would seize this opportunity.
Let Brian think Wendy was that woman, then Wendy could have chance to win Brian back.
Hearing Penny’s words, Wendy suddenly brightened. It did not occur to her?
They were families. Thomas must know that.
“Thank you for your advice. I knew that meeting you would be useful.”
“I'll go back and ask him. I'll see you again when I am available.”
Wendy got up, and then Penny reminded her from behind.
“You must do it thoroughly, you can’t be soft-hearted.”
Hearing the words of Penny, Wendy stopped, thought for a moment without looking back, and then
strode away.
She understood the hint of Penny, but if she did it ruthlessly, would she end up like Penny?
She’d better to be cautious and not to be ruthless to the things that she could solved. She was giving
herself leeway.
Although Wendy hated Winnie, although she scolded Winnie why she did not go die when she was
angry, she did not hope Winnie would really die.
She walked out of prison and met Klara in the car, and then she told Penny’s words to Klara.
“I said Penny knew to do. She still hates Winnie till now. She has nothing to do in prison, she must be
thinking about how to deal with Winnie all day.”
Klara was smug, because this idea was put forward by her.
“We really came to the right place, and after listening to her advice, I feel hopeful again.”
Wendy was not depressed anymore, she felt hopeful to fight with Winnie.
“Hope is a good thing, but Wendy, you'd better send me home first, the kids miss me.”
Klara knew that she could not follow Wendy to see Thomas. Once she met him, she could not get rid of
him easily and might become his pawn.
Penny showed Wendy a clear path, but it was likely to push her into another swamp, let her struggle
deeper and deeper.
Winnie studied in this country and was heartbroken. She was dumped and lost her family. Coming here
again, she had more mixed feelings.
Here, she received the bad news of her family, knew her love and had best time with Penny and Leo.
In just a few years, everything had changed.
But there were also things she missed, such as classmates and admirable mentors. Apart from Leo
and Penny, it was still very beautiful.
Both Winnie and her children needed to get over the jet lag. It was daytime in the country, so Winnie
didn't feel sleepy at all. Winnie and her kids were having dinner with Morgan.
“Morgan, when did you come?”
Winnie and Morgan chatted over dinner.
“About a month ago, I was here directly from C City to deal with emergency. Actually, it's all settled. Mr.
Bennet asked me to stay a little longer. He did not feel at ease if it were others to take care of you and
two kids when you are here.”
Morgan explained why he was there, and motioned Brian’s concern to Winnie.
Speaking of Brian, Winnie slightly raised her mouth, thinking of the scene he was with Wendy in the
picture.
“It was lucky that Mr. Bennet has you to help him. You are well-rounded people and go where you need
to go.”
Wendy said very admirably. She referred Albert, Calvin and Morgan.
“Compared with you, we dare not call ourselves talents.”
Although he dare not admit that he was a talented person, he was pleased to hear Winnie’s praise.
“Morgan, don't call me Director Chambers. I'm no longer a member of your company, I'm uncomfortable
to hear it, and I think it's estranged.”
Winnie gave a warm smile, she knew the three men were good to her and she was touched by their
recognition, kindness and help.
They were colleagues and friends of Winnie, more like family members. If he still called her Director
Chambers, it was really alienated.
“But in our hearts, you will always deserve that position. In our hearts, you will always be Director
Chambers. And if we don't call you Director Chambers politely, Mr. Bennet will be angry at me.”
Morgan's words made Winnie feel warm in heart.
She had no idea how highly she was valued by them.
“Since you think so highly of me, and are afraid that Mr. Bennet will be angry, call me Sis Winnie. It is
amiable and Mr. Bennet will not be angry.”
This address given by Winnie sounded much warmer and quite pleasant to hear.
“Sis Winnie? All three of us seem to be older than you.”
Morgan smiled, but he wanted to call Winnie by that name. Because she really was as warm as a
sister.
“Never mind, just call me in that way, though you are older than me. It is a deal, tell Albert and Calvin to
call me Sis Winnie in the future.”
Winnie smile too. Considering their age, they were really a little older than her.
“By the way, after having dinner, please help me look after two kids. I made an appointment with a
classmate, I'll go back soon after I met him.”
Winnie entrusted Morgan with her two kids.
“It's not safe to go out alone. I'll accompany you and find someone to take care of the children.”
This was a foreign not B City, Morgan must ensure the personal safety of Winnie, or he could not
explain to Mr. Bennet.
“No, I studied here and I am quite familiar with here. You help me take care of the kids, I don't trust
others. If you feel worried, arrange a driver for me.”
Winnie understood the task of Morgan, so she could only put forward such opinions.
In fact, it was not far from her school, and it was also a place she used to walk by in the past. She knew
there well, but to make Morgan at ease, she would talk a person with her.
Morgan soon arranged a driver for Winnie. After dinner, Morgan took the two kids back to the room.
Winnie was taken by the driver to meet her classmate.
Her classmate was a local of this country, a man several years older than Winnie.
When the man saw Winnie, he was particularly excited and directly hugged her in his arms.
“You're back, Winnie.”
The man excitedly said.
Although Winnie was happy to see her classmate, she was not used to foreigners' greeting, especially
this kind of warm greeting between a man and a woman.
“Yes, but Fred, I can't breathe.”
Winnie politely refused the hug, the foreign man, known as Fred, quickly let her go.
“Sorry, I forgot your habit.”
The man smiled awkwardly, remembering that Winnie would not accept such a greeting.
“It doesn't matter. It's forgivable.”
Winnie breathed a sigh of relief and then laughed.
Winnie continued to talk with Fred.
“How are you, Fred?”
“I'm good, of course, except I'm thinking of you.”
“We are good too, but we have never had the chance to come and see you. Now I'm relieved to see
you.”
Winnie looked carefully at her classmate, whom she had not seen for several years. Nothing much had
changed about him, but he was a little more mature and stronger.
But memories flooded into her mind.
When they were new to the scene, Fred helped her solve many problems. It was like in front of her
eyes, but it had become memories that could not go back.
“I can see that you are good. And I am relieved to see that you are so excellent and so fresh.”
“Where are Daenerys and Penny, how are they?”
Since they had not seen each other for many years and were mutual friends, Winnie had expected that
Fred would ask about the other two.
So they sat down in a place. Winnie began to say some things about Daenerys and Penny.
“......”
When it came to Penny, Winnie just said a few word and did not mention that she was in prison and her
family’s condition. She did not want Fred to know that.
“Is she with Leo now?”
Fred asked. It was not until then did Winnie knew that they knew everything, and her concealment was
so ridiculous.
“No.”
Winnie answered with indifference.
“Be careful about Penny. She is not a good man. When you left, she...”
“I know, and I'll be careful. I will never be in deep friendship with her.”
Winnie interrupted Fred. She did not want to recall the past painful experience, nor did she want to say
anything about Penny's current condition. This was the last dignity Winnie gave to Penny.
“Well, just be careful. By the way, I think of something. Before you left, someone came to the school to
look for you.”
It had been many years before Fred remembered it. As he wanted to say it, Winnie happened to have
left.
When Winnie returned to resume her studies, he was out of the country. After so many years of
missing each other, it was put on hold.
“Someone looked for me? Man and woman?”
Winnie asked curiously, in fact, after so many years, it was meaningless to ask. However she and Fred
had something in common years ago.
“A man. Do you remember the day you left, we met on campus, that was I want to say. But you were in
such a hurry so I didn't say anything.”
“I have no impression now about that man, I just remembered that he was tall and handsome with
extraordinary momentum.”
These were the only physical features Fred could remember.
“Didn't he say why he came to me?”
Winnie asked curiously.
“Nothing special. He just asked your name and what department you were in.”
Fred thought about it and made sure that man didn't say anything special.
“Well, there's nothing strange about that.”
Winnie said disapprovingly.
