Stefan opened the paper bag.
"Your money?"
Stefan did not know where the money came from. He took a look at it.
"Someone gave it to me, to be exact."
Caro was not nervous when she said that, which made Stefan ease down.
"Someone gave you dowry?"
Stefan could only guess this possibility, although it was a joke, but he felt it was the most likely.
"I wish so, but it was a woman who gave me the money to keep my mouth shut."
Hearing that, Stefan felt wrong about the money.
"What's the matter? Who gave you the money?"
"I have never met the person before and didn't know her name. I asked her but she didn't tell me, but it
is related to you."
Caro successfully made Stefan nervous.
"What? Tell me what happened."
Stefan asked anxiously.
"Remember the day you took Winnie to get the room? that day..."
Caro finally told him he whole story.
"A man named Albert also came here twice. It was not me received him the first time, and in the
second time my colleague was absent, so I helped him copy the video."
Stefan was surprised to hear that and finally knew what was wrong between Winnie and Brian.
"So I'm not helping Winnie but hurting her."
"What do you mean? What happened to Winnie?"
It was Caro who was nervous this time.
"I said you should have contacted me earlier. You didn't call me after coming back for several days. If
you had known earlier, you could have redeemed yourself. I've been restless these days, and I'm afraid
it might affect your work. Alas...... It's my fault. If I had called you earlier, nothing would have
happened."
Caro was in remorse. Stefan was silent and she thought Winnie had something wrong.
"I don't know what happened, but Winnie must have been going through something during recently."
Stefan explained.
"Albert is an assistant of Brian Bennet, president of the Bennet Group, and one of his most trusted
right-hand men. What he did was told by Brian himself.”
“Brian and Winnie are boyfriend and girlfriend, and they have two six-year-old children. That is to say,
that Albert came out to find the video was commanded by Brian. Brian suspected the relationship
between Winnie and me so he sent people to check about it.”
Stefan explained clearly, but it shocked Caro.
"Winnie is Brian’s woman and has two six-year-old children. My god, the woman who gave me money
is Winnie's rival in love."
It was not difficult to infer. There was no way she was paid a hundred thousand to shut her mouth.
"Yes, you are right. But do you remember what the woman looked like?"
Now Stefan was eager to find out who the woman was.
"I have a monitor in my office. I keep everything from that day."
Caro said and took out her mobile phone and showed the video Stefan.
"Wendy."
Stefan saw at a glance and knew it was Wendy.
"Right, right, she is Winnie's rival in love, but I didn't expect she could do something so dirty."
Stefan did not know what words to describe Wendy's behavior. She was so stupid and how did she
live? If she paid to delete the video, he wouldn't think she was stupid.
"She is indeed stupid. She left the money here and I don't know how to give it back to her. She did not
know the relationship between us and threw the money here confidently. Maybe I don't understand the
capriciousness of the rich."
Caro ridiculed, she had no money, but she would not be so stupid. The video was taken away, how
could she keep her mouth shut?
"It is my fault, it might not have been so much trouble if I came back earlier."
Stefan sighed, now he was concerned about Winnie.
"What happened to Winnie? Should we help explain it?"
Caro was worried and felt unease with one hundred thousand in her hand.
"We must explain, but I want to find out what happened."
Stefan got up. He must understand what happened to Winnie and Brian before he explained.
"Where are you going? What about the money?"
Caro asked Stefan.
"Keep it, and save the video of the woman coming to you, for us to explain."
Stefan said and hurried away. Now he was guilty. He offer her help but it was a blow to Winnie.
Although he liked Winnie, although he hoped Winnie and Brian broke up, he could not see Winnie be
wronged, and could see Winnie separated with Brian in this way.
Stefan called Winnie as he walked out of XX hotel, but Winnie did not answer it. He wanted to go to the
company to find Winnie, but was afraid of bringing unnecessary trouble to her.
Stefan sat in the car and thought for a while and then he thought of Vanessa. He felt that Vanessa
should know about her sister, so he drove to Vanessa's school.
In the student dining hall of B University, the students for dinner had already almost gone. And Vanessa
was still eating, because she came late.
"Vanessa."
Vanessa looked up to the source of the sound.
"Stefan, why are you here?"
Vanessa asked in surprise. She never thought it was Stefan who called her.
"Come to meet a friend, so I come to see you."
Stefan did not rush to ask about Winnie. He was afraid that Vanessa did not know it and she might be
worried.
"How did you find me?"
Vanessa asked with a smile.
"You are an excellent student. Anyone in the school knows you, so I asked them."
Stefan jokingly said, but he did use this way to find her.
"Stefan, you are a joker."
Vanessa smiled, her popularity seemed not so high and Stefan exaggerated.
"You haven't been to my restaurant for a long time, so I stopped by to see you. How are you and your
study?"
Stefan said and sat on the opposite Vanessa, and let Vanessa continue to eat.
"I'm busy studying these days, and my sister is busy, too, so we have time to get to your restaurant. I
am tired of studying, but I have gained a lot."
Vanessa was not afraid of being tired. Now she wished that she could find a good job after finishing
school and buy back the houses.
"That's good, as long as you can learn something, it doesn’t matter to be tired. And how's your sister
these days?"
He spoke of Winnie at this hour.
"Oh, I see. You came to see me because you want to know how my sister is."
Vanessa said with a smile. Seeing that Stefan was concerned about her sister, she knew that Stefan
liked her sister.
"Do you like my sister? Now's your chance. My sister is single now."
Vanessa said mysteriously, but Stefan got the answer he wanted.
"Single? What do you mean?"
Stefan had just thought it might be the reason, but he could not come conclusion before he figured it
out what happened.
"My sister broke up with Brian more than two months ago. Now my sister has nothing but two kids. So I
say you have a chance."
Vanessa was gratified, but she was sad for her sister. She knew that they would break up, but her
sister was so in love with Brian that she didn't know if her sister could get over.
"Why did they break up?"
Stefan was not happy but guilty.
Because of his negligence, Winnie broke up, how could he go for his own opportunity in this situation?
"I don't know the exact reason. My sister did not tell me. She said I'd find out one day. Stefan, don't
care why they broke up, if you don't mind my sister has two children, go after her. You can trust I will
take care of my aunt, we won’t be burden to my sister."
Vanessa felt the reason to break up was not important. Her sister would be happy after she got it over.
"You're talking too far. I'm not good enough for your sister. She has two kids, but that doesn't hide her
brilliance."
"Eat well, study well, and take good care of your sister. I gotta go. Let me know if you go to my
restaurant."
Stefan disguised to be relaxed. Since Vanessa din’t know the reason, he would not tell her.
After saying goodbye to Vanessa, Stefan walked out of B university. When he got to the car, he called
Winnie again, but there was still no answer. He could only go back to his restaurant.
Winnie woke up when it was three o'clock in the afternoon, only to find that her phone was muted and
Stefan gave her several calls. But because sleeping too long affected the work, Winnie did not call
back to Stefan immediately.
She asked Alice to come.
"Why didn't you wake me up? I have so much work to do."
"I didn't know you were in the break room. I thought you were at the hospital."
Alice answered, but she did not seem to care.
It was Brian told her to say so. Brian did not let her wake up Winnie.
Alice knew that they might have had quarrel, but she did not expect that she had to convey his words to
Winnie.
