Winnie gave a bitter smile. Her aunt was happy, but it was not at the right time. Breaking up now
worried her aunt. But she could not make things under control.
"Yes, she is happy, but she is disappointed in you."
"I haven't told her why we broke up, and she thinks it's your fault we broke up, so she's disappointed in
you. But don't worry, I'll straighten it out for you when she comes back."
Winnie had to explain, otherwise Brian must think she duplicity.
"Why is she disappointed in me?
Brian didn’t want to listen to the reason for breaking up, didn’t want to listen to Winnie so-called’s
explanation, he just wanted to know where he disappointed Winnie's aunt.
"My aunt said that during her absence, she thought that you could take good care of Vanessa and me.
She feels safe with you around us. But you broke up with me during her absence, so she is worried
about us being bullied because she is in Africa."
There should be nothing to hide. That was her aunt's first thought. Although it was unfair to Brian, he
did break up with her during her aunt’s absence.
"I didn't know your aunt would go abroad. I didn't know she had expectations of me."
Brian felt sour to hear that. Did he abandon Winnie and Vanessa needed him the most?
"Don't joke, even if you know my aunt have expectations of you, you will still break up with me."
Winnie stopped her movement and fixed her eyes on Brian. She wanted to hear what he would say at
this point, when everything was over and everyone was calm.
Brian saw innocence in her eyes. How could someone who had done something wrong look him in the
eye so unscrupulously?
For a long time, he gave no answer. He was panic that he misjudged Winnie and that he did not see
the truth.
"Why, is that so hard to answer?”
Winnie did not get an answer, took a self-ironic sigh and then continued to say.
"Don't answer then. You don't have to care what my aunt said. Now she is not worried, I told her Stefan
will take care of us."
Winnie deliberate words made Brian’s panic run away and Brian looked away from her.
He felt his brain had a problem, so that he saw innocence in her eyes. Since Winnie’s aunt knew
Stefan, what would be innocent?
"Will you marry Stefan?"
Brian asked, but after asking it out, he found himself distressed.
Not long ago he had thought he and Winnie would get married. It was ironic that now he was asking
her if she would marry another man.
This question for Winnie was also sudden. She gave a smile. To get married? With whom? Who could
marry a woman with another man in her heart?
"Maybe, if the kids, my aunt and Vanessa agree, we will get married."
In order to play it well, in order to make Brian believe that she got a room with Stefan, Winnie could
only give such an answer.
"Your aunt doesn't seem to object. If you want to get married, hurry up and don't waste everyone's
time."
Brian got angry all of a sudden, but he did not show his anger. He could not accept the fact that Winnie
would get married, but he had to say so, because they had broken up.
Winnie was surprised hearing that. She did want to married, but with whom? What was wrong with her?
Why was she wasting everyone's time? Should she disappear to save their time?
She wanted to ask Brian how she had wasted everyone's time without disturbing anyone or affecting
anyone's life. But just as she was about to ask, Brian got up and stared at her, and then went on
talking.
"Winnie, let me answer your question. Even if your aunt has hope on he, it doesn't change the fact that
we broke up."
Brian stood up and walked away with such determination that he did not even turn his head or slow his
steps.
Winnie was baffling, but was hurt by his words.
She didn't get a comforting answer, at least not one so heartless and cold. But why couldn't he just hold
on, but hurt her with those words before he left?
After leaving Winnie’s house, Brian was agitated. There was no place to go, but he did not want to go
home, so he went to the hospital after making sure Kevin was on duty.
There were very few patients tonight. Kevin returned to the duty room after finishing his work and saw
Brian sitting on his office chair.
"Long time no see. There must be something wrong you so you remind of me."
Kevin said in a strange manner. They did have not seen each other for a long time.
From the fact Winnie was in hospital to now, the two of them just communicated over phone and did
not meet. Brian always refused to meet with him on the excuse that he was busy. Even when they were
on the phone, he deliberately avoided the name of Winnie, avoided the fact that they broke up.
"No."
Brian answered coldly. He might have a heart disease, but could not be cured by Kevin.
"No? I don’t believe it."
Kevin walked over to Brian and smelled alcohol on him.
"Have you been drinking? Do you have a headache?"
"It is useless to come to me. Go to Winwin, she can cure it."
Kevin's first reaction when he smelled alcohol was that Brian had a headache.
"I came from her."
Brian was not in the mood to joke with Kevin, he did not know where to vent his anger. And now he had
no headache, the smell of alcohol on his body was sprinkled by him, he did not drink.
"You got rejected? She ignored you, right?"
"That is right. You have broken up. She doesn't have to care whether you have headache or not. It
doesn't matter to her."
Kevin said with dissatisfaction.
"Can you talk nicely. It is not my fault for our breakup, why everyone is against me?"
Brian knew why Kevin was dissatisfied. They thought it was his fault that they had broken up, it was
abandoned Winnie ruthlessly.
"Not your fault? So it is her fault? I don't believe it."
Kevin said directly. Winnie cried in the hospital holding Oscar, he could conclude that Winnie was
wronged and the responsibility was not on Winnie.
"What do you know? Why are you so sure? Don't jump to conclusions without knowing the facts."
Brian couldn't figure it out why no one believed him. Even people who don't know the truth jumped to
conclusions. He suspected that these people were bewitched by Winnie, or they would not stand on
her side to believe her and defend her.
"Well, I don't know, tell me what was going on. I give you a chance to defend yourself and then I will
redefine you."
Kevin's attitude was tough, he did not believe that Winnie was at fault.
"She is getting married to Stefan. Whose fault do you think it is that we broke up?"
Brian really could not say they got a room, so he could only say so.
"To get married? With Stefan?"
Kevin was not shocked but laughed when he heard the shocking news.
"Are you kidding me? When did Winwin get together with Stefan?"
It was clearly a joke. The people who believed it were fools. Winnie and Stefan were impossible to be
together. Winnie had deeply loved Brian, and she would not fall in love with others.
Kevin believed that what Brian said was not true.
“I've heard from her just now. Do you think I lie? Do you think I could joke about such things?"
Brian said seriously that he did not think this was a news that could make people laugh. The woman he
loved was going to marry another man, how could he smile when his heart was full of holes?
Kevin stopped laughing because Brian was serious, even so, he did not believe that Winnie and Stefan
were together.
Even if Winnie and Stefan were together, there was a reason, it might be made up by Winnie.
With this thought, Kevin did not continue to refute Brian's words. Neither of them said the specific
reason, there was no strong evidence to persuade him, Kevin still believed Winnie.
"You broke up with her, and it was you brought it up. It's been three months now, so it's normal for her
to get married. You and Gloria are also going to get married too, aren’t you?"
"Why, you feel upset? It doesn't matter, you will feel better if you get married sooner than she does."
Kevin did not urge Brian to get married soon, he just expressed his disappointment.
"What kind of bad idea is this? What's the solution?"
Brian just didn't want to express his heart. In fact, he was not upset but distressed. Even if he married
first, the pain could not be cured.
"What problem do you want to solve, get back together with Winwin?"
Kevin could only give bad advice, because he did not know the cause of the matter.
"Impossible, we will never be back together."
Brian spoke with certainty. Even if they took a road of death that could not be turned back, even if they
knew ahead was hell, they wanted to go forward without hesitation.
"That's your problem. Since you can't get back together, don't worry about the things about Winwin. It's
none of your business even if she was going to give birth, let alone to get married."
Kevin was angry. Seeing that Brian was so tangled, he did not bear to question him. But now, it
seemed not work out.
"Aren't you talking to Gloria about getting married? What did Gloria say? If she accepts, get married as
soon as possible and let go of Winwin."
Kevin did not know why he said that, and did not know whether he was comforting or stimulating. He
only knew that in these three months that they had broken up, Brian had a hard time, while Winnie had
a comfortable life.
