Back to her company and her office, Winnie was steadfast for she did not have to see Brian again.
And the work here was relatively easier, and the hours were freer. She could free up more time for the
public security bureau.
Winnie went back to her company, Laura naturally went to work in the Bennet Group.
Albert saw Laura when he went to work. He was unexpected but thought she was Winnie’s assistant.
Back to his office, Albert felt something wrong and went to Calvin's office.
He asked about Laura as soon as he got into the room.
"Is Laura the assistant brought here by Director Chambers?"
"Director Chambers did not come. Laura is in charge of this cooperation."
Calvin gave an unhappy answer.
"What? I told you last night this cooperation will be followed up by Director Chambers."
Albert was irritable and did not understand what happened over a night.
"You were right last night, but this morning Mr. Bennet called me and asked me to replace Winnie with
Laura, saying that from now on, Director Chambers would not follow the projects of the Bennet Group."
"Director Chambers's office issealed, not allow anyone to enter."
Calvin was confused too, he did not know why Brian changed so fast.
Calvin and Albert were very happy after talking on the phone last night, thinking that they must have a
chance to work together. But the sudden change this morning chilled their hearts.
"Impossible. Mr. Bennet stayed at Director Chambers' last night and came back this morning. How can
he change his mind?"
Albert was at a loss.
He sent Brian there last night and picked him up this morning. He thought the two would take this
opportunity to get back together, but it was different to accept the fact.
"But that's just the way it is. Maybe they failed to make a deal. Alas...... Director Chambers is over."
Calvin sighed, not knowing what had happened, but he knew they could not interfere with the
president's decision.
Albert did not continue to ask, he just felt it a pity.
Winnie did not adapt to the free times after she left the Bennet Group. When she had more leisure
time, she had wild thought, so she went to see the kids at noon, and at this time, she would not see
Brian?
When she was in the suburbs, the two kids had just finished lunch. When they saw Winnie, they rushed
over.
"Mom"
"Mom."
"Do you miss me?"
Winnie stretched out her arms and put the two kids into her arms.
"Yes."
"So do I."
"I miss you more."
"I miss you a lot."
The two kids argued because they missed their mother.
"Well, well, I miss you, too. Give me a kiss."
Winnie kissed on both kids' faces.
"Winwin, come and have lunch."
Rufus kindly said to Winnie.
"Rufus, I came after dinner."
Winnie got up and answered Rufus with a smile. Though she got nothing to do with Brian, but she
could still feel the goodwill and enthusiasm from Rufus.
"That eat together in the evening, I will ask Paul to get some food ready."
Rufus felt uncomfortable if Winnie did not stay for a dinner. Since she skipped the lunch, they could
have dinner at night.
"Never mind, Rufus. I just want to stop by at noon. I have to go back to work later. When I have time, I
will ask Paul send you and the kids to my place. I'll cook for you."
Winnie would not stay for dinner, because she might meet Brian at night.
It was better not to see him..
"Well, ok, then."
Rufus did not force her and had guessed that Winnie was deliberately avoiding Brian.
"Winwin, go sit in the living room. We'll talk and play with the kids."
Rufus and Winnie sat down on the sofa.
"Do you want to tell me how you've been doing these last two days?"
Winnie asked for the kids. If they refused to say, she would not force them.
"Yes, I'll go first. These two days I am very good and obedient to grandpa and brother. I have been
studying hard."
Megan opened the mouth first.
"Megan is so good. I am so proud of you."
Winnie praised her and felt Megan was sensible.
"Mom, I'm good, too. I worked hard on my studies and software. But there is one thing..."
Luke was about to speak but stopped, carefully looking at Winnie.
"Why? Why stop? Did you see someone or..."
Winnie understood the kids and knew what he wanted to say. She tried to get him to say it himself.
"It seems that you have known that Great Grandpa came to us."
Luke lowered his head, afraid to face his mother. He had done something wrong and must admit it, but
he did not regret it. It was a bit of a struggle, and he did not know how to explain to his mother.
"Well, I know. Aunt told me."
"Do you think that's polite to Great Grandpa?"
Since the kids saw through everything, she could only speak straight.
"No."
"No."
Both kids bowed their heads in shame and apologized profusely.
"Mom, we will not do it again and will be polite."
Luke promised, but Megan had lowered her head.
She could promise, but whether she could make it was another matter. So she didn't dare to promise
her mother easily, for fear that her mother would be disappointed.
"A good boy is one who recognizes his mistakes, and a better boy is one who gets rid of the bad habit
of being impolite. I believe you can do that."
Winnie ignored Megan.She felt Luke could do it, and he would tell Megan to do it. So she did not have
to explain it one by one.
"I would like to say a few more words on this matter. Great Grandpa loves you, like mom and dad. So
don't mix things between grown-ups with grandpa's love for you. It's not fair."
"No matter what we do or say, we must deal with it as it is. We should look beyond the appearance to
the essence. You can't just kill a person's goodness."
"Can you understand what I am saying?"
Winnie did not want to nag, but for the sake of the kid's physical and mental health, she had to say It.
"We understand."
Luke answered and Megan always bowed her head in silence.
"Do you understand, Megan?"
Winnie deliberately asked Megan, forcing her to answer. Otherwise, Winnie did not know what she was
up to.
"Mom, I don't understand, but you don't have to say that. I'll ask my brother to explain it."
Megan's answer was cunning, which could avoid mother's questioning, and make herself stay out of
the matter.
"Okay, make sure you understand me, okay?"
Winnie did not see through her. She just told the kids must be polite and respect others. Only they
respected others, they would be respected .
"You two go and play with Paul. I have something to talk with you Mom.”
Rufus broke the dialogue between mother and child.
The two kids were so happy because they wanted to get over it. Grandpa gave such an opportunity, so
they did not hesitate to run to Paul.
"Winwin, the two kids have been very sensible, do not require too much to them. Besides, kids have
their own opinions about it. They just made a little mistake."
Rufus spoke for the kids, but the he did not talk about the individual conversation between the kids and
his father, or they would not be treated like this.
“Rufus, I have to tell the kids they are wrong. But don’t worry, I know what to do.”
Winnie knew Rufus did not want the kids to be lectured. Rufus had done well, at least not defended
them in front of the kids.
"It is necessary, I believe in your ability to teach kids. But I have my own opinion."
Rufus sighed and went on.
"Their Great grandpa did come over to see them. I've known him, he never saw someone because he
missed him. So he does like the kids."
"He is such a domineering man that no one has ever compromised on the matter between you and
Brian. Brian had been his hope, no matter what Brian liked, he must satisfy him. But in this matter,
Brian asked for many times, but he never compromised."
"But lately I've seen that the words of the kids touched his heart. I was trying..."
Rufus wanted to analyze things thoroughly, wanted Winnie to understand his words, but also
understand the kids' behavior. But the most important part of him was interrupted by Winnie.
"Rufus, I know what you are thinking, you want to let two kids’ crying and blame to win chairman's
compromise, right?"
Winnie understood what was going on. It was not polite to interrupt his words, but she did not want
anyone to do it for her or Brian.
Even if the two kids use way to make Felix compromise, he did not mean to really accept her. She
didn't like such acceptance.
"Yes, only two kids can persuade him now."
Rufus affirmed his idea.
"Thank you, Rufus, for thinking of me, for recognizing me. But it's not possible for me and Brian to be
together. It was my fault that we broke up, and I am ashamed to go back to this house."
"Don't fight for us,and don't embarrass Chairman. We both let it go. You should let it go, too."
Winnie once again showed her attitude. Everything had gone, even if it was not her fault, they could not
go back together.
"You can’t be together?"
Rufus immediately leaked the sad look. He had been thinking about how to solve the
problem.
