Wendy did not feel she was stupid, if being stupid, she could get 100 million, she would rather be a
fool.
"Mom, I'm not stupid. I can pay back the money if I want, but if I don't want to, he would not ask it back.
He told me I can let him know whenever I need money, and any figure is acceptable for him."
"Really?"
Wendy’s mother was excited again.
"Yes."
"Mom, I have a meeting with a client today, I got to get ready. Let’s talk when I come back."
Wendy got out of bed and went to the bathroom.
She wasn't meeting with a client, and she didn't have a major deal. She went out to see someone.
She came to XX Hotel, where Winnie and Stefan got a room. Winnie found Caro through the
receptionist.
Caro's office.
"Who are you?"
Caro did not know Wendy and wondered why Wendy was there.
"You don't need to know who I am. I want to talk to you about Winnie."
Wendy was proud because she got 100 million in hand.
Hearing the name of Winnie, Caro felt dependable, at least she knew Winnie.
"Please have a seat."
Caro said politely.
Since she did not want to say who she was, she would not ask again.
Wendy sat on the sofa, and Caro walked over to sit in the main seat.
"What do you want, Miss?"
Caro went straight to the point. She had a lot of work to do and she did not have too much time to
spend on this anonymous woman.
"Well, you're a straight talker, so I won't beat around the bush."
"Some time ago Winnie got a room here. I don't know if you know Winnie or Stefan, but now you know
me, they are not important."
Winnie got to the point, but Caro felt she disgusting. She did not know what kind of relationship she had
with Stefan, but she was so arrogant.
"Please, madam, go straight to the point."
Caro reminded with a composed manner.
"Ok, then, you were in that room, so I came here to you.”
Wendy placed a paper bag containing cash in front of Caro, which she felt the most straightforward
way.
Caro took a glance at it and notice it was about a hundred thousand. To tell the truth, Caro was
confused and did not know what this strange woman wanted to do and what her relationship with
Winnie was.
Caro did not speak, while Wendy continued.
"Take these, and if anyone comes to you, tell them you were asleep in your room and you don't know
what happened."
Wendy told her purpose, she felt 100 thousand of hush money worth it. As long as Winnie and Brian
completely separated, she could have countless hundreds of thousands.
Hearing that, Caro finally understood what was going on. Wendy wanted her to perjure, to make it real
that there was something happened to Winnie and Stefan.
"Miss..."
As Caro was to refuse, Wendy got up and interrupted her words.
"Don't rush to give me an answer. You have time to think about it before you take the money and do
what I say."
After that, Wendy hurried to leave, afraid that Caro refused.
Caro did not chase out, feeling that she could not communicate with a mentally retarded person.
How could she give the money away and believe Caro could help without knowing anything?
She didn't even leave her name or contact information, how could Caro return her the money?
Caro was to call Stefan, but suddenly thought of that he was on a business trip, so she put the paper
bag away and decided to wait for Stefan to come back.
On the weekend night, Winnie took her two kids and Vanessa to Daenerys' home.
She was still said, but she could not refuse since Daenerys kindly invited her. She brought her kids and
Vanessa to avoid they talked about her.
In this way, everyone would be careful about what they would say about her.
Brian was not there, so Winnie was relaxed.
Winnie had been holding Jelly Bean. She was in grief and pain for days and almost forgot Jelly Bean.
"I haven't been here for a few days. How has she grown so big?"
Winnie gave a smile, looking at Jelly Bean in her arms suddenly she had an impulse to give birth to a
child.
But there was no man for her.
"You haven’t seen her for more than a month, not a few days."
Daenery complained. If it weren't for her insistence today, Winnie would not have come.
She had several friends there to talk to her, but she brought her kids and Vanessa, so there was
something they could not talk about.
"For that long?"
Winnie asked. Life had been painful, but it till passed fast. She hadn't seen Jelly Bean in over a month.
"Mom, put Jelly Bean on the bed. I want to see her."
Megan said. She liked Jelly Bean, but her mother had been holding Jelly Bean in arms, and she could
only touch the small feet of Jelly Bean.
"Ok, ok, I'll put her down."
Winnie said with a smile and put Jelly Bean on the bed.
"Leo is here, don’t you want to talk to him?"
Daenerys said in her back. After asking the nanny to take care of Jelly Bean, she and Winnie walked
out of the room.
"Long time no see, Leo."
Vanessa greeted Leo in the living room.
"Yeah, long time no see, top student. You are more beautiful."
Leo said with a smile. He had been busy and could not remember how long he had not seen Vanessa.
In his opinion, Vanessa was not only beautiful, but also became less depressed.
"Leo, you have a good taste, I agree that I am beautiful."
Vanessa could not help laughing. At this time, Winnie patted Vanessa's shoulder from behind.
"What have you learned from school? Why are you so smooth-tongued now?"
Winnie was gratified to see Vanessa like this. Such Vanessa had been truly out of the shadow of losing
parents.
Winnie's words made everyone laugh, then Winnie found Emily hadn't arrived.
"Where's Emily? She hasn’t arrived yet?"
Winnie asked Daenerys.
"She said she is occupied but something, so she could not come, but she would come to see you some
day."
Hearing that, Leo was unhappy and stopped smiling.
"Leo, how on earth do you think? I used some means to get Emily to stay, why don’t you take action?"
Winnie bluntly asked Leo.
"I found her once and told her I love her, but she still turned me down.”
Leo told what happened last time.
"In the past, she could not get over my cheating on her, but now she cares about my blind date. I don't
know what to do."
Leo was really at a loss. He loved Emily, but he did not know what to do to make Emily happy, so that
she could forgive him.
"What can you do? Get her pregnant and..."
"Don't say nonsense, they have not married yet."
Before Daenery could finish her words, Winnie stopped her. Vanessa was there, it would affect
Vanessa's view of love.
"You chat, I go see Jelly Bean."
Vanessa left the living room. This topic was not suitable for her to listen to.
After Vanessa left, Leo became the focus, Emily became a topic. The center of the topic was
successfully transferred to Leo from Winnie.
Leo drank much today and he had never been so drunk like now.
He was dizzy, but he remembered Emily clearly.
After living Daenerys home, Leo got in the car. When the driver asked him which house he was going
to, he gave a decisive answer.
"Emily's."
He was so drunk but he was decisive, he seemed to be going crazy.
At the door of Emily’s, Leo staggered out of the car and then the driver drove away.
Leo was drunk, but his mind was still clear. He found that Emily's car parked in the courtyard of the
villa, so he pulled out his phone.
The phone went through, but no one answered for a long time.
Leo knew Emily was deliberately avoiding him.
Then he called again, but again there was no answer. Leo then sent a voice message to Emily.
"I'm outside your house, I know... I know you're home. Come out. I have a few words... to say to you."
Leo became more and more dizzy, and his voice was intermittent.
Emily was indeed at home and she had seen Leo’s call, but she did not answer. When she was
hesitating, she received a message of Leo.
Hearing that, Emily immediately frowned, from his voice, she knew that he was drunk.
Emily came to the window, opened a gap of the curtain to look out. She saw Leo wobbly stood under
the street lamp at the gate. But she didn't see Leo's car.
Emily was worried about his safety, but now she didn't want to see him.
When she did not know what to do, she got another message from Leo.
"You are at home... You just don't want to see me. Ok... I'll wait for you... I'll be right here. Wait till you
come out to see me."
Emily holding the phone stood by the window. She could see clearly that Leo sending her message at
the gate.
"Emily, come out and see me. I really need to talk to you."
"Emily, I miss you, I want to see you."
His words hurt Emily's heart. She did not want to meet Leo, so she simply pulled close the curtain.
He drank a lot of wine, so she could not believe his words. But that "I miss you" sounded so true.
