Luke was like comforting Megan, but also like expressing his dissatisfaction.
"Have you both finished your homework?"
Winnie quickly opened his mouth to helprescued Brian rescue,. Tthis topic can could not continue to
say,, because it was a little sensitive, a little and heartache hurtful.
"No, Mom, my task is not finished, I just come out to put the wind,have a rest. I am now going I go
back."
Megan stuck her tongue outspit spit tongue mischievously looking at Winnie and then ran out.
"Mom, I haven’t finished it yet either. You and Dad go out, and I'll let you know when I have something I
don’t understand."
Luke said and then stretched out his arms around Winnie's neck.
"Mom, don't let anything get you down. You have me and my sister, and we are always your hope."
Luke comforted Winnie while patting her back, which touched Winnie and pleased her.
His understanding came from his experience and observation. He must have seen through her mind,
so he comforted her. Winnie felt sorry for the kids for she did not give them enough love, but made
them worry about her.
"Ok, I am not disappointed with anything. I am happy to have you for the rest of my life."
Winnie gave Luke a warm smile and went out with Brian.
Winnie and Brian went back to their room together.
"They're disappointed they can’t be the old house, are they?"
Brian felt sadder than anyone else, but he had no choice.
"Yes, but it is better than seeing the truth. Never mind, I have told them in advance, but Megan is
stubborn and had to say it out."
"You don't have to worry about it. There will be many such cases in the future. You have to learn to get
used to it."
Winnie, in turn, comforted Brian, and then went to the dressing table to get her phone.
"Winwin, I let you down today. I promise it won't happen as often as possible. It won't..."
"No more promises. I understand your situation. By the way, tomorrow is Saturday, and I have to go
home."
With her back to Brian, Winnie interrupted his words, Brian had made many promises, and now she
regarded it as a joke.
Winnie changed the topic, because she did not hear his promise.
Brian knew that Winnie was avoiding the topic, knew that she did not want to hear anything about
Gloria and that in fact she minded it but she did not say it out.
Both of them were helpless.
"Let Vanessa come here. I'll be available tomorrow. We can cook for Vanessa."
Brian did not continue as Winnie required. He wanted Vannessa to be there to ease his estrangement
with Vanessa.
However, Winnie rejected it outright.
"She won't come."
"Then I'll go with you."
Mr. Brian persisted.
The Chambers family was extremely disappointed in him. He could not let it continue, or they could not
be able to get along with each other.
"If you're not busy tomorrow, stay home with the kids. I can go home alone."
Winnie still refused and then said with embarrassment after a moment of hesitation.
"You got on the news these days, Vanessa was unhappy about that. If you meet her, she will give a
black face. I'll bring her here after sometime."
Brian rarely had time to rest, in factactually, Winnie wanted to be with him to enjoy the time of
gathering, but she was not in the mood.
Her smile was false. Among seven days a week, she was nervous for five days. In the rest two days,
she wanted to relax at home.
Vanessa really would not come to the suburbs and did not want to see Brian, so she would go home to
stay with her.
"Ok, I'll stay at home with the kids and you stay with Vanessa. Winwin, please say some good words
for me so that Vanessa will not hate me."
Brian did not force Winnie because he wanted to give some space to Winnie.
Brian noticed that recently Winnie had not regarded his house as her home and always wanted to go
back to her home.
Brian was worried about this situation, worried that Winnie was going to leave him.
"Don't worry, I'll speak for you."
"Brian, if you are tired, take some rest. I will go downstairs and have a talk with Stella."
With that, Winnie went downstairs with her phone. Stella was downstairs, she could not pretend that
she was not there. And she knew that Stella would mentioned what happened today and she would
feel uncomfortable.
‘Alas...... Accept your fate, the more you want to escape the more you can't escape, you can only live
in suffering every day.’
As Winnie expected, what Stella and Rufus said was about Gloria.
Winnie smiled all the time, with a look of indifference. Occasionally, she defended Brian.
Just then, Winnie's phone rang. It was Officer Lee, so Winnie took the phone and stood up.
"You guys talk. I'll take a call."
Winnie left the living room and went to the yard.
“Officer Lee.”
Winnie answered the phone.
"Our leader informs you to come to work on Monday morning and officially go through the entry
procedures. The salary is according to your job, and you will have reward once you have meritorious
service."
Officer Lee couldn't wait to get to the point.
Hearing that, Winnie gave a bright smile and could not be able to suppress her excitement.
"I'll be there on Monday, and I am ok with the salary. But I'd like to know what it's like to be a
meritorious man."
Winnie said with a smile, as if she had a mission and she was a real police officer.
"Don't worry. You'll have plenty of chances to do something meritorious. I'll call you Officer Chamber
after the entry formalities tomorrow."
Officer Lee was also excited. He had completed the task and had such an excellent colleague.
"Officer Chamber... Winnie officerOfficer Chamber... Don't tell me iIt's a nice name."
Winnie laughed, this day's haze, and finally dispersed someand her mood finally became better.
As Winnie just came out, Brian came down from the upstairs. He did not Did not see Winnie, so he
asked Stella.
"Sister, warm.Where is Winnie, Sister? She said she'd come downstairs to talk to you."
"She is oOutside. She went outside to answering the phone."
Stella pointed to the outside to answer.
So Brian went to the window, through the glass, he saw just to see Winnie standing there on the phone,
and she looked and very happy very and excited appearance.
Brian do did not know who Winnie and chat,was talking to, but he found her these two days always see
her after receiving the phone smiled like a child these two days after receiving the phone. Thought of
this, Brian is was envious, because Winnie in front of him has had never reserved a laughed to cryor
cried to the fullest in front of him.
Winnie was always careful and hid her mind in face of him. And he knew nothing about Winnie other
than her grievance.
Since they met on the plane, they had been together for a year and a half now. He only had a partial
understanding of Winnie's previous experience, and only knew that she had a hard time, but he did not
know what she had been through.
In a year and a half, he had not ever seen her aunt. He was so close to the tombstone of her parents,
but was stopped by Winnie.
Winnie did not want to talk to him about these, or he did not care enough for Winnie, did not give her
the feeling of family, did not give her the feeling that she could rely on him?
It might be the latter possibility. He did not do a good job, so that Winnie did not feel safe, so she could
not tell him what was in her mind.
Her happy smile was so good, young and energetic. At her age, she should have such a smile, it
should be the real side.
The next day, Winnie returned to her home, while Brian was in the suburbs with his two kids.
Winnie accidentally thought of Stefan's clothes, so she went to the dry cleaner and got the clothes.
Since it was just after 9 a.m., Stefan's restaurant had not opened for business, so it was quiet at this
point.
The two of them sat in a seat near the window and chatted over tea.
"I came to deliver your clothes to you today. Thank you and your friend for that night taking care of me.
And I am sorry to bother you."
Winnie said with embarrassment, she was sorry that she was so drunk.
"It must be depressing to hear me talk so much. I'll not to talk when I'm drunk in the future."
She was really in a bad mood that day, otherwise she would not be so drunk. She asked him to drink
with her and said many things she should not say, it was so embarrassing.
"You think too much. As I said, don’t say sorry if you see me as your friend. It is my honor that you can
say that to me. It doesn't matter how I feel about it, as long as it makes you feel better, it makes sense
for me to listen to you."
Stefan said in a light tone, trying to reduce the embarrassment of Winnie.
He knew that woman who was sober were not the same as she who was not drunk, and generally she
would feel embarrassed and sorry for her behavior after she became sober.
"You're good at talking. No one wants to hear nagging."
Winnie smiled, showing dimples, which was charming and cute. Stefan was obsessed.
"That depends who is nagging, I’d like to hear you nagging."
Stefan expressed his true thoughts in a relaxed tone in the form of a joke. If he was serious, he would
frighten Winnie.
She was a person with a story and needed a friend like him to listen to her occasionally. If she kept it all
to herself, her story would drive her crazy one day.
And Stefan was willing to listen to her, to share stories with her.
Because he wanted to become Winnie’s intimate friend, he could not tell her what was in his
mind.
