Butler Lowe continued
"Don't lose confidence, young man. You have to control your own destiny, your grandfather is
domineering, but he could not be with you for a lifetime."
"Well, go back. Go back and think about it."
Butler Lowe encouraged Brian and then turned back.
Brian thought of what Butler Lowe had said, looking at his back. He felt Butler Lowe had something
hiding from him. What did Butler Lowe know?
On the way back to the company, Brian sat in the back, still thinking about what Butler Lowe had said.
He understood Butler Lowe did not want him to get married so soon, because Butler Lowe did not like
Gloria. Butler Lowe was not a gossip man, so whatever he said was grounded.
"Albert, investigate Gloria. The more detailed, the better."
According to Butler Lowe's opinion, as long as he found Gloria had problem in his character, Brian
could delay the time of marriage. Butler Lowe was right that his grandfather had forced him to get
married for many years, but he had not been married yet and his grandfather had not done anything to
him.
It was better to be single than to get married with a woman he disliked.
"I'll check it right away."
Albert was excited to receive the order, because Brian began to find the shortcomings of Gloria, and
they would separate in the end.
Almost immediately, Albert made a call.
"I want all the information of Gloria, the faster, the better."
After hanging up the phone, Albert looked back at Brian.
"Mr. Bennet, Director Chambers is angry, do you rest assured?"
Albert said deliberately. He knew it was not something he should not be involved, but he was anxious
about them.
"I can't do anything about it. I'm the last person she wants to see right now."
"Albert, Winnie made a mistake, why she is angry with me? It is weird."
Brian could not understand, so he asked Albert.
"Mr. Bennet, if she made a mistake, she could not be angry, unless she did nothing wrong."
Albert really wanted to tell the truth, but he had promised Winnie that he would not say it. He had to
keep his promise though he was worried.
"You mean Winnie did nothing wrong? So I was wrong?"
Brian raised his voice, clearly displeased with Albert's answer.
"I don't know, Mr. Bennet. All I know is that if Director Chambers doesn't love you, she won't be angry
no matter what you say, because there is nothing to be angry about."
Albert did not dare to answer directly. If he said nothing, his president was not satisfied, and if he said,
he still was not satisfied. He caught in the middle of the dilemma.
"Come on, don’t tell me she loves me or not. I don't believe in it now."
Brian fretted and stopped the topic.
Why fretted? Albert's words were reasonable, but he did not want to admit it.
Albert did not dare to speak, and then he remembered business after a moment of silence. So he
spoke.
"Mr. Bennet, Director Chambers will go to work tomorrow. Should we let her continue to come to the
company to take charge of the cooperation case or replace her?"
"Let her take charge, I don't trust anyone else. Let Calvin arrange it."
Brian made the decision without hesitation. He never wanted Winnie to leave the Bennet Group.
"Ok, I'll tell Calvin to deal with it."
"Right, Mr. Johnson called you just now. Your phone was in the car so I answered it. He has invited you
to dinner tonight to celebrate Miss Jones's becoming a student again."
Leo said so, Albert could only convey.
"Time and place."
Without hesitation, Brian agreed. Since it was to celebrate Emily’s things, Winnie would be there. He
wanted to explain to Winnie, and see how Winnie's forehead was.
After parting with Brian, Winnie went to see Penny. She thought Penny would taunt her, but she still
wanted to see her.
"Will you stop coming to my house? You know I hate you. Don't you know I'm upset to see you?"
Winnie and Oscar sat in the living room, and Penny sat in the middle of them and insulted Winnie with
disgust.
Winnie gave a faint smile and did not say anything. She seemed to have been used to Penny’s
“hospitality”. She did not expect she could endure so much. Brian angered her, and now she was
enduring Penny evil attitude.
"Do you hear me? Can you give me some time to be alone?"
Penny continued. She was helpless because Winnie did not refute but just sat there.
"I didn't disturb you. This house is quiet as long as you don't speak."
Winnie spoke with a smile. She knew Penny's hatred for her was still deep, but if Winnie was away
from her, she would bright hatred to the next life.
In the next afterlife, Winnie did not want to meet Penny again and did not want her to live like this now.
"You...... Winnie, I see clearly what kind of person you are. Have you no dignity? I am driving you away,
why don’t get just get out of my house? You are shameless, no wonder Brian abandoned you. You
deserve it."
Penny said harsh words, and she felt happy to talk like that to see Winnie was sad.
"Well, stop it. You lose your temper every time Winwin comes. It's not good for your illness. Winwin
doesn't mean any harm. She just wants to be with you."
Oscar could not listen to it any longer, so he immediately stopped Penny.
It’s been days. As long as Winnie came, Penny would lose her temper and said harsh words.
But as time went by, Winnie did not refute, Penny would be silent and it would be peaceful.
Because of that, Oscar did not speak, but listened quietly. But when it came to Brian, he could not
listen to it, which was the cruelty for Winnie.
"I didn't ask her to come. I hate her. Why do you come if you know it isn't good for me? Is it because
Brian abandoned you, and you are bored so you came to pity me? I don't need that, Winnie."
Penny's disgust had reached a certain extent. She did not want Winnie to come here because she was
afraid Winnie would hear her call with her father.
"Don't make so much noise, can’t you pretend I do not exist? You can swear as much as you like."
Winnie did not care about it on the surface, but her heart was bitter.
Now everyone knew that she was abandoned by Brian, which was actually quite ashamed.
She deeply loved him and strove hard for it, but in the end, she got nothing. It seemed that all previous
efforts had become a joke.
Winnie sometimes thought, if she did meet Brian when she had the surrogacy, if she did not meet him
again in the plane, if she did not work in the Bennet Group, would she have a different life?
Penny was speechless to Winnie. As usual, she shut up. As Winnie said, when Penny shut her mouth,
the room fell silent.
After a while, Penny's mood softened.
"Oscar, get me some water. I want some hot water."
Hearing that, Oscar immediately helped Penny.
When Oscar went to the kitchen to get water, Penny spoke in a low voice.
"Don't come to see me again. If you have energy and time, persuade Oscar to see a psychologist.
Maybe a psychiatrist can cure his problem."
Penny did not quarrel but talked about Oscar's problem with Winnie. That was why she asked Oscar to
the kitchen.
"It was very thoughtful of you. I never thought of a psychiatrist before. Leave it to me. I'll take him to a
psychiatrist."
Winnie was gratified that Penny was concerned about Oscar, which proved that she had a good side
and conscience.
"Don't just talk about it."
Penny said in an irony manner, afraid that Winnie would only pay attention to Brian but ignore Oscar.
"Don't worry. I will do it."
Winnie said very certainty, to make Penny less worried.
Winnie and Oscar went to Leo's house till the evening.
On the way to Leo’s.
"You are not in a good mood today. Is something wrong with you?"
Oscar asked in a low but soft voice. It was comforting to hear.
"Oh, you understand me the best in this world. I absolutely hide it well, but you still found it. Are you the
roundworm in my belly?"
Winnie said jokingly, with a joke to cover up her mood.
"Stop messing about and tell me what happened. You feel less depressed after you say it."
Oscar did understand Winnie. He would know she got something in her mind looking at her eyes, and
hearing her tone. Since they got in the car, she'd been distracted.
"I quarreled with Brian."
Winnie said in an easy manner and was less angry now.
"You have broken up, why do you still quarrel? Winwin, if you always let Brian affect your mood, I'm
afraid you will never get out of his world. Forget it. If it is right to separate from him, don’t miss him."
Oscar did not ask the reason for the quarrel, but advised Winnie to give up as soon as possible.
Because the reason was not important, it was the fact the two people could not forget each other.
"Alas...... What can I say? How can you see everything, even my heart?"
Winnie said jokingly, only in this way could she not focus on Brian.
Oscar was the first to say that she still missed Brian since she broke up with him for so long.
Oscar was right, she really could not forget Brian, or she would not be angry.
"Come to the point, don't cover it up. Winwin, I want to emphasize again that you must open your heart
to forget Brian."
Oscar got serious. He did not want Winnie to always avoid reality, but wanted her to face it and let it
go.
