"You lie, Brian is mine. I met Brian first. Even if I had a contractual relationship with him, we were
husband and wife."
Penny refuted Daenerys. It seemed to her that Brian was hers. If Winnie hadn't brought the children
back to find Brian, they would still be a couple.
"What a shit couple! Do you deserve to be Brian's wife? You are distorting truth. In fact, you know
better than anyone else that Brian is not yours at all. You don't want to admit it."
"You said you met Brian first. Well, let's see."
"Where were you when during Winnie's surrogacy? Brian knew Winnie at that time. You fished in
troubled water. When Winnie needed Leo the most, you hurt Winnie."
"If you hadn't taken Leo away at that time, Winnie wouldn't have to be a surrogate. You were wrong at
that time. It was you who hurt yourself."
Daenerys's hands were shaking in anger. She couldn't figure out why Penney didn't admit it. Obviously,
the matter was clearly laid out here and people all over the world knew that Penny was wrong.
She still had her own reasons for sending her to prison for so long for reformation. Why was so stupid
and cruel?
"Nonsense. It's her fault, it has nothing to do with me."
Suddenly Penny didn't know how to defend, so she could only stick to her own ideas.
She remembered these things clearly, but she never thought it was her fault.
"There is nothing wrong with what I did. I just want my life to be better. Am I wrong?"
Penny still defended herself. If she was wrong, Winnie's fault was even greater. She always believed
that it took two to make a quarrel.
"Can you hurt others to make your life better? Can steal other people's happiness? Leo and Winnie
had a very good relationship back then. To Leo, you are a friend. But you, you robbed Winnie of her
boyfriend."
"If taking Leo is your happiness, then you should cherish him. Why did you break up with Leo?”
Daenerys talked about the previous things over and over, while scolding Penny again and again. She
didn't understand what Penny was insisting on? Was it her poor dignity, or what she called "faith" for so
many years?
She felt that people like Penny had better die. She would only bring pain to others and sorrow for
herself.
"Because he doesn't like me at all, so I broke up with him."
Penny shouted angrily. No matter what the reason, she always wanted to refute. No matter whether
there was anyone to help her, she had to keep up her appearances.
But Daenerys smiled sarcastically after saying this. She also regretted it.
"Penny, Penny, you finally told the truth after so many years. Is your conscience condemned for this
truth?”
"So you know Leo didn't love you. You are shorn of all dignity."
"..."
These words of Daenerys completely left Penny speechless. She had a lot of words to refute, but she
couldn't say it, just like her throat was stuck by something.
However, Daenerys hadn't finished speaking. She said quickly and didn't give Penny a chance to ease.
"This is not your whole reason. You suddenly have a rich dad. You think you are omnipotent. You
separated from Leo because you met Brian."
"But you didn't expect Leo to be so successful, and you didn't expect that the person Brian loved was
not you."
"I'm telling you, I'm telling you exactly, in this life you have lost, you have lost tragically. You lose
because of your filthy mind, because of your greedy desire. You lose because you are unkind."
Daenerys scolded Penny and expose Penny's dirty heart, leaving her unable to explain.
She was such a person. Although she didn't admit it, Daenerys wanted everyone to see her clearly.
Although she did not admit what she did to Winnie, but the law would give Winnie justice. Although she
didn't think she was wrong she did, but God would punish her.
Penny had lost. She lost completely. Whether she admitted it or not, her dying life spoke for itself.
"I didn't lose, I never lost. I'm not dead yet, it's not over yet, I won't lose."
Penny growled. She would never admit that she had lost. Her struggle was not over yet, and no one
could decide the final outcome.
"Get out, get out of here. Winnie, get out of here."
Penny was furious, and while yelling, she picked up the thing next to her and threw it towards Winnie.
Fortunately, Oscar was always prepared. The thing was caught by Oscar without hurting Winnie.
"Winnie, you go out first, and never come to see her again."
Oscar spoke but was also on Winnie's side, to be precise on the right side.
"Penny, let me say something, and I'll leave when I'm done."
Winnie did not leave, but finally spoke.
Her eyes were red, but the tears did not fall.
"The things in the past are over. It doesn't matter who is right or who is wrong. You just have to think
about whether you are at ease. If you are at ease, you will be the winner."
Winnie asked Penny to understand it by herself. They had said what should be said many times, and it
couldn't change Penny's mind. Thus, Winnie could only ask Penny to experience it by herself.
She would feel relieved when she understood it, and she could only torture herself if she didn't
understand it.
Although these things were painful for Winnie, she was relieved of the past. No matter what Penny did,
it was impossible to hurt her.
She hoped that Penny could let herself go and leave the world with peace of mind.
Winnie and Daenerys turned and left together, but met Brian at the door of Penny's ward.
Daenerys was surprised, but it was reasonable. Brian must have been here because he was worried
that Penny would hurt Winnie.
"It's late, you go back first. I'll go to Kevin's office to pick up something."
Daenerys's tone was still very cold. It was obvious that she was still immersed in hatred of Penny and
had not calmed down.
"Go home and never come to see her again."
Brian just took Winnie's hand and left.
The next day, Emily pushed Leo in a wheelchair and went to see Brian's father with Daenerys and
Oscar. Leo was discharged from the hospital and went directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Leo and Emily had become a legal couple. Emily moved into Leo's villa as a matter of course. In order
to celebrate Leo and Emily's marriage, everyone arranged to have dinner together at Leo's house.
In hospital, in Rufus' ward.
Stella and Joshua came over with lunch, and Vanessa knocked on the door to come in after they had
lunch.
"Vanessa..."
Stella called Vanessa happily.
"Stella, I come to see Rufus."
Vanessa ran over at noon because she was really worried, and she only had time at noon.
In the past two days, she had been worrying about Rufus. Although Winnie said Rufus was okay, but
she just came to visit him.
"Come in."
Stella invited Vanessa in.
"Vanessa, don't worry about me. I am fine."
Seeing Vanessa, Rufus couldn't stop smiling, and he was in a good mood.
"Rufus, you look pretty good."
However, what Vanessa thought was different from what she said. Although Rufus' mental condition
was not bad, he looked paler than when she saw him in the suburbs that day. And Vanessa found that
Rufus was losing weight rapidly, and his eyes were sunken in two days.
In such a situation, it was a lie to say Rufus was fine.
"Well, I’m fine. I can go home after a few days of rest."
Rufus still didn't know his situation, so even if he wanted to create opportunities for Brian and Winnie,
he wanted to go home earlier. He still had his things to do, he still had to be with his daughter.
"Rufus, you have to take this opportunity to take good care of your body. You must live a long life."
Sadness surged in Vanessa. She worried about Rufus when she couldn't see him, thinking that she
would feel at ease when she saw him. But when she saw Rufus, she couldn't help feeling distressed.
Such a kind man was tortured by illness.
"I know the importance of life this time, so I will take good care of myself and live well in the future. I will
live to 110 years old."
Rufus saw Vanessa's worry and talked to her jokingly. As long as Vanessa was here, Rufus also felt
heartwarming even she did not say a word.
Vanessa just stayed in the hospital for a short while and left in a hurry. After all, she used the lunch time
to visit Rufus, which meant that she had no time for lunch today.
After Vanessa left, and the ward returned to silence.
"Vanessa is really sensible. She used the break time to come here. I don't know if she can have lunch
at school today."
Paul said softly on the side. Because he sent someone to protect Vanessa, and probably knew
Vanessa's timetable.
Even if she took a taxi to the hospital from school, she would have no time to eat lunch. She could only
eat some fast food in the car.
"Oh, why didn't I think about it? Has she had lunch?"
Paul's words reminded Stella. Stella also blamed herself for not discovering the problem earlier.
"How can she have class in the afternoon if she's hungry."
Stella muttered again.
"Stella, call to ask her."
Rufus hurriedly urged Stella. If Vanessa didn't even eat lunch just to see him, Rufus would always be
worry about her.
So Stella took out her phone and called Vanessa.
"Vanessa, you came to the hospital in such a hurry. Did you have lunch? Wait at the school gate, and I
will ask Joshua to bring you lunch."
Stella was almost certain that Vanessa didn't eat lunch before saying so, and asking Joshua to send
lunch to save Vanessa's time.
"Stella, I'm having lunch now. Thank you for your care."
Vanessa was also very touched. Concerns from outsiders did not often happen to her.
"What are you eating? Is it nutritious?"
Stella continued to ask.
"Stella, it is good. Don't worry about me, you just need to take good care of Rufus."
