When Winnie came to Penny's house, the nanny had just prepared breakfast. Winnie came uninvited
and took the initiative to sit at the table, which made Penny disgusted.
"You are disgusting, do you know? Why did you come here so early? If you're fine, go back to your own
house. There are some restaurants on the street, don't eat at my place."
Penny spoke directly to drive Winnie out, but Winnie was used to her hospitality.
"After eating, I will help clean up. I don't eat for free."
"Sit down and eat. You can't drive me away."
Winnie said very calmly, just like in her own home, as if the person in front of her was her family,
without a sense of distance.
"Rogue. Winnie, why are you so hateful?"
Penny said with a look of disgust, but she also knew that no matter what she said, she couldn't drive
Winnie away.
At the beginning of breakfast, no one spoke. Just before the end of breakfast, the former owner of this
house came here.
Brian stood in the living room and looked at the three people who were eating breakfast, not daring to
imagine that the scene was so harmonious. How deep the hatred between Penny and Winnie was! The
harm Penny brought to Winnie was indescribable. How could Winnie let bygones be bygones and take
care of her?
"Why are you here?"
Penny asked in surprise, looking at Brian with incredible look.
She couldn't remember how long she hadn't seen this man, she just remembered the love and hatred
for him at the time. Why was she so calm now?
She had no mood swings, and there was no love in her eyes. Has this man completely walked out of
her life? No, how could it be possible? Even if there was no love, the hatred between them could not be
dissolved.
"I heard that you are sick, come and have a look."
Brian said in a cold voice. He did come with the idea of seeing patients, but after seeing Penny, he
could only remember what she did to Luke and Winnie. Thus, the hatred still prevailed.
"It's meaningless to see a dying person."
Penny threw down the chopsticks disdainfully, then got up and went to the living room.
"This used to be your home, but now you are a guest. As a host, I can't neglect the guest. Please sit
down, Mr. Bennet."
Penny said weirdly.
"Brian, sit down."
Oscar and Winnie also walked over, but it was Oscar who spoke.
Brian sat aside, at a distance from penny.
"How are you? You look well."
Brian had to ask. Since he was here, he had to show his care for Penny. After all, she was the one who
was dying.
"I won't die in one or two days. Are you disappointed?"
Penny wanted to vent her grievances, but she didn't dare to make any trouble in front of Brian and
could only reduce it. If it was someone else, she would yell.
"Penny, be polite."
Oscar reminded. Regardless of the grievances between them before, Brian was very kind that he could
come over to see Penny and let her have no regrets.
Penny continued to have a bad attitude, and Oscar was really afraid to annoy Brian.
"Well, thank you for coming to see me, Mr. Bennet. I'm fine, and I can live for a few months."
The content of her words had changed, but her tone was still resentful.
"Have a good rest."
Brian got up as he said, he was too impatient to listen to Penny's cynicism.
"Mr. Bennet, I have to remind you that you'd better not marry Gloria. Being rich, powerful, and status
does not mean she is a perfect person. If you regret it, don't say I didn't remind you."
Penny said these when Brian was about to leave.
Brian frowned, wondering why Penny said so.
Winnie forced her not to be with Wendy, and Penny warned him not to be with Gloria. Then who could
he be with? Did he have to be with Winnie who betrayed him, or Penny who hurt his child?
"I don't need anyone to take care of my affairs. Whoever I want to marry is my freedom. II will bear the
consequences in the future. Penny, you are nosy."
Brian satirized Penny, but it was a pun in Winnie's ears. He taunted Penny and warned her.
She was also a nosy person in Brian's heart.
"All I told you are good things. Marry Wendy, Wendy is better than Gloria."
Penny continued speaking despite the warning, but what she said went against Winnie's meaning.
"Penny, don't be nosy. Other people's marriages have nothing to do with you."
Winnie just reminded her, but successfully aroused Penny's anger.
"It's none of your business whether I say it or not. I can say whatever I want to say. Who are you? , You
have no right to talk nonsense. Gloria was right. Who do you think you are. Who makes you..."
"Penny, stop talking."
Winnie hurriedly stopped, fearing that Penny would tell others what Gloria was doing here. If Brain
knew it, he would cast doubt on her motives.
But Brian heard it clearly, even if Winnie stopped Penny, he didn't miss the name Gloria.
"What's wrong with Gloria?"
Brian asked angrily.
"It's nothing. Just remember not to marry her. What I said is for your good."
Penny didn't give a positive answer, not because of Winnie's reminder, but because she wanted the
current effect. If Brian wanted to know the details, he could investigate by himself or ask Winnie. In
short, she would not tell Brian what happened, because she wanted to leave a suspense to Brian.
Brian was too familiar with Penny's way of stirring up troubles, so he didn't ask any more. However, he
directly pulled Winnie out.
"Let me go..."
Winnie struggled, but this seemingly angry scene hurt Penny's heart.
"Brian's favorite person is Winnie."
Penny could not help speaking out.
After pulling Winnie outside, Brian let go of Winnie, and then asked directly.
"What's the matter? Did Gloria embarrass you?"
"No, no one is embarrassing me."
"Mr. Bennet, you should go back to work at the company."
Winnie was no a villain. She was either magnanimous or knew nothing.
"Winnie, why don't you say it?"
Brian stood in front of Winnie, knowing she was about to turn around and go back.
He asked angrily, not understanding Winnie's deliberate concealment.
"It doesn't matter. It's my own business, I don't have to tell you."
"Mr. Bennet, whether it is Gloria or Wendy, you have considered it before making a decision."
Winnie knew she shouldn't give him such a reminder. Brian might think she was noisy again. But after
seeing the true colors of Gloria that day, Winnie had been thinking about Gloria's intentions.
As for whether such a woman was suitable for Brian, Brian had to judge by himself.
"Winnie, are you insane? You won't let me marry Wendy, and let me think about Gloria for a while.
What do you want? Should I marry someone who betrayed me?"
Brian was angry that Winnie didn't tell him the truth. She always hid something from him. She had been
concealing some things. Brian didn't even know what she was thinking. It is precisely because of this
that Brian doubted Winnie.
"Well……"
Winnie snorted and gave Brian a helpless look.
"I knew you would think of me this way, and I knew you would suspect that I had bad intentions. Even
though I have been avoiding your doubts, you still think so."
"Mr. Bennet, what are you questioning me? What are you guessing about me? Your opinion of me has
been changing. I can be any kind of person in your heart."
"As for your questions, even if I answer them, will you believe me? Don't you believe every word I say?
Since you have all kinds of doubts about me, is it necessary for you to ask me?"
Winnie was angry, and refuted Brian.
She questioned Brian, but her own words and Brian's cold questioning look were hurting her heart
deeply.
Her heart was full of scars, and there was no more room for Brian to hurt. What happened had been
cut on her previous wounds like the needles and knives .
"Take the matter on its merits, we only talk about today. I just want to know what Gloria did to you."
Brian realized that his impetuous words just now hurt Winnie. Brian both felt distressed and regretted
while looking at Winnie's sad look, and quickly changed his attitude.
He only apologized yesterday because of his impulsiveness, and he couldn't hurt her again today. He
persuaded himself, admonishing himself to speak calmly and not to talk nonsense without thinking.
Watching Brian calm down, Winnie felt even more worried. But she also realized that she was talking a
little too much. The previous things had passed away with their breakup. She mentioned it again, which
would inevitably lead to misunderstandings.
"Mr. Bennet, I am a betrayer of you. How could I still expect to be with you. Besides, I don't like you
anymore. I have someone I like. Please don't say anything like this in the future. Please give me the
most basic respect in the future."
Winnie's tone eased slightly, but the resentment in her words could not be concealed. Winnie first
denied her intention. She didn't mean to marry Brian. She just gave him a kind reminder.
"I betrayed you, but I am also a human being and have dignity. You can't get angry with me casually,
and you can't treat me as a punching bag."
"I have no money. I have a lower social status than you. I have done shameful things. But you can't yell
at me at will."
"If you are like other wealthy people who look down upon us in such a condescending manner, then
please don't have any dealings with me, a person with low social status."
Now Winnie especially wanted to ask herself a question. She tolerated and restrained again and again,
but in exchange for Brian's contempt and humiliation. Was it worth it?
"Sorry, I was too impulsive. I will pay attention. Tell me what Gloria said."
Brian's attitude eased a little. He just hoped Winnie and he would not argue every time they met. He
didn't want to quarrel and apologize as soon as they meet..
However, why did he repeatedly ask Winnie what Gloria? He was afraid that Winnie would be wronged,
and he was afraid that Winnie would be bullied.
