Brian did not let Winnie drink, but stretched out his hand to pull Winnie up.
Winnie, however, refused.
"I don't need you to send... No... You have to send me back. Stefan sent me back, so you should do
the same."
"You must see if we were followed on our way to the hotel deliberately or accidentally..."
Winnie got up, but stood unsteadily. She almost fell but was caught in time by Brian.
"Don't you touch me. I can walk myself. Everyone knows your relationship with Gloria... if I'm
photographed... I'm going to be misunderstood again."
Winnie was not afraid of misunderstanding actually, she was afraid that she would cause troubles to
Brian.
Now in the public eye, Brian and Gloria was an unmarried couple. If she was exposed, she would bring
trouble to Brian.
They had broken up and it was not good to cause him troubles.
Winnie refused the help of Brian and tried her best to support herself.
She found it difficult to walk steadily for the first time, but no matter how difficult it was, she insisted on
paying the bill and stumbled out of the bar.
She felt the breeze as soon as she stepped out of the bar. For people who were not good at drinking, it
was fatal to breeze wind after drinking, so Winnie vomited.
After vomiting, Winnie felt uncomfortable in stomach.
She’d been drinking all night and had not had any food, so that was wine she vomited out.
She felt so uncomfortable that she gasped for breath.
Although uncomfortable, Winnie was aware of one thing.
Brian used to pat her on the back and bring her water when she threw up. However, Brian just stood by
and did nothing now.
She felt her heart cold and sour. But rationally, he was right to do so, because they had broken up.
"You go home first, I can go back myself."
Winnie vomited again after saying that.
She even got tears when she vomited. It felt worse than death.
After this wave of vomiting, Winnie knew that vomiting had not end, but she could not squat anymore.
She managed to get up and walked to the curb and sat down.
No sooner had she sat down than she began to vomit again.
Although uncomfortable, Winnie did not say a word.
She placed her arms on her legs, and then she lied on her arms. Her mouth was full of the smell of
vomit, which made her want to vomit even more.
She knew she couldn't go home in such a state and wanted a bottle of water to wash her foul smell in
mouth. Brian might have already left. Who could she turn to for help?
Winnie did not know who to call at this time, but she needed help.
Reluctantly she took out the phone from her bag and made a call.
"Pick up the phone, or I'll die in the street."
Winnie soliloquized and she did not know who she was calling to.
No one answered the phone, Winnie spoke again.
"Are you a friend or not? Can you come and pick me up? Did you not answer my phone on purpose?"
Winnie felt abandoned by the whole world. She just lost Brian, why everyone ignored her?
Winnie hung up the phone and was going to call another person, at this time Brian behind took her
phone.
"......"
Winnie thought she met a bad man, as she was to cry out, she saw the mobile phone in the hands of
Brian.
"Why are you still here?"
After that, she vomited again.
After a burst of vomiting, Winnie was gasping for air and tearing. Brian handed her a bottle of water.
"Rinse your mouth."
The cold sound seemed to freeze the water, but Winnie was grateful, because this bottle of water was
very important to her.
"Thank you!”
Winnie took the water and rinsed her mouth.
When she felt better, Brian handed her the antialcoholic drug.
"Drink this."
"What? Drink more? Ok... I'll drink it if you ask me."
Winnie didn’t see what Brian gave her and thought that Brian let her drink, so angrily she drank it up.
But it made her vomit worse.
The antialcoholic drug was thrown up before it even reached her stomach.
"I'm sorry, but I really can't drink anymore. I will drink after a while."
Winnie said and rinsed her mouth, and then got up by the support of the tree.
"Will you take me home? If no... call me a cab."
Winnie felt unable to support herself, but she really did not want to expose her ugly side in front of
Brian so that he laughed at her and felt disgusting about her.
She had tried her best to control it.
"Get in."
Brian stretched out his hand to help Winnie.
Winnie did not refuse because she had no strength.
Winnie got in a car and vaguely saw Albert.
She should greet him, but she did not.
"Where should we go, Mr. Bennet?"
Albert asked.
He received a call and came immediately, only to see Winnie was so painful.
"Go to her house."
Brian sat sitting in the back. Winnie had fallen asleep on him.
Fortunately, Winnie was asleep all the way and did not vomit again.
Brian held Winnie upstairs. He did not know the password, but he did not want to wake up Winnie.
Fortunately, this lock could read fingerprints.
Brian used Winnie's fingerprints to open the door.
He put Winnie on the bed, but Winnie suddenly got up, rushed to the toilet and vomited again.
She vomited until her stomach was empty, but she still felt sick.
Winnie was again held to bed by Brian, and at this hour, Winnie became sober.
"Go back. Marry Gloria and live a good life."
Winnie was still concerned about his marriage, but it angered Brian.
"Do you want me to marry Gloria?"
Brian asked angrily.
"Yes, I want you to marry her, so that everything will be over."
Winnie just wanted everything to be plain, and the only way was that Brian got married.
"Good, since you are so eager, tomorrow I will tell Gloria about it. I'll marry her so you can settle down."
Brian said angrily and then walked away.
However, he stopped at the door, because he was worried that Winnie had no one to take care of her.
He stood at the door of the room before he returned to the bedroom, only to find that Winnie had fallen
asleep on the bed.
Brian felt distressed that Winnie was tortured by alcohol.
He dared not touch her, for fear that she woke up and continued to vomit.
So he sat aside, silently looking at her. But Winnie couldn't help herself and ran to the bathroom again
and again.
She did not fall asleep until four o'clock in the morning.
Brian left at six o'clock till Winnie did not wake up again.
He went straight to his office and fell asleep in the break room.
He did not wake up until Albert called him.
When he woke up, he remembered that he had a meeting this morning, so he washed his face and
changed her clothes. Then he went to the conference room.
Unconsciously he looked at the position what Winnie used to sit, and found she was there.
Brian was surprised, because she thought Winnie would not come today, at least not in the morning.
She looked pale on face and her eyes were red and swollen. It could be told that she did not sleep well.
From the beginning to the end of the meeting, Brian always looked at Winnie. While Winnie focused on
work, even if she felt uncomfortable, she endured. And she only took a glance at his finger.
Looking at his swollen and bruised fingers, she felt sorry.
At the end of the meeting, Winnie went out and then came back with a bottle of medicine.
"Alice, give this to Mr. Bennet. Don't tell him it is from me, just tell him you saw his hand was injured."
Winnie said. She wanted Brian’s hand got recovered to relive her guilty for him.
"Why should I give him?”
Alice asked, puzzled.
"Don't ask why, do as I tell you."
Winnie did not tell her the reason.
"All right."
Alice did not ask again, but took the medicine to Brian's office.
When she came to his office, Gloria was there. Alice said hello and then passed the medicine to Brian.
"Mr. Bennet, I saw your hand was injured during the meeting, so I went to the drugstore and bought
some medicine you."
Alice left after that. She did not know why Winnie did so, but she still did it as she said.
"You are injured?”
Gloria came to Brian's desk and asked with concern.
Brian had been sitting at the desk, so Gloria did not see Brian's injured hand till Alice said that.
"I am fine."
Brian said indifferently and then took back his hand.
He looked at the medicine on his desk and felt bitter. He knew it was bought by Winnie.
"Are you sure?"
Gloria still asked in a soft voice.
"Yes."
"I have something to tell you. Sit here and we'll talk."
Brian put the medicine away and sat down on the sofa.
"Ok."
Gloria also sat down.
"Grandpa wants me to get married."
Brian said coldly, forcing Winnie out of his mind.
"To get married? You and me?"
Gloria asked in surprise.
"Yes."
"Yes ; "
