Hearing Winnie's words, Brian finally had a smile on his face since he came back. It seemed that he had come out of the mood of looking for that woman on his business trip.
"Really? Is it nauseating? Did I say little of these words, so you are not used to it. It doesn't matter. I'll say it more often in the future to get you used to it."
"If you let me get used to it, you should be responsible, so don't talk nonsense. But I do hope I'm a curse, and you'll never get rid of me."
Unfortunately, Winnie was not a curse, and she did not have the power of the magic curse. She was nothing but a rubber band to tie hair. When he felt constrained, he could take it off and throw it aside. When it was broken, it could be decisively discarded and replaced by a new one. She was such an insignificant existence.
Brian did not know his next words were commitment or not and did not know he could be responsible for the end. But he would try. He could do it after convincing his Grandpa.
"Sure, I try to be responsible."
Winnie said nothing but gave a bright smile.
Joking or not, she didn't take Brian's remarks as a joke. She would get along with Brian day by day. All she had to do was be ready to get dumped.
The waiter brought their food and the two began to eat.
Brian cut his steaks into small pieces and put them in the front of Winnie and then got Winnie’s to him.
This considerate move made Winnie warm her heart once again, but this kind of warm was bitter.
"Thank you!”
Winnie said with a faint smile.
"Don't thank me. It's what I should do as a boyfriend. And......"
Brian was about to promise that he would do this more often in the future, but a man suddenly appeared.
"Miss Chambers, you are here."
Stefan stood there in surprise, thinking that he was mistaken, it was really Winnie.
"What a coincidence, Mr. Brooks."
Winnie looked up at the voice. When she saw Stefan, she immediately showed a sweet smile.
"I thought I was wrong. I came with a friend, and you..."
Stefan was in the middle of the sentence when he noticed that there was a man sitting opposite Winnie.
When Stefan looked at the man, he immediately recognized it was Brian Bennet, president of the Bennet Group.
Brian was a famous young entrepreneurs over the country even the world. Others might not know him, but as a person in B City, it would be absurd not to know him.
However, at the moment, Stefan was surprised. Why was Winnie with such a famous man?
"Oh, let me introduce you. This is the father of my two children. His name is Brian Bennet."
Winnie saw Stefan's surprise and then introduced.
“Father of your children?”
Winnie's introduction made Stefan feel incredible.
Brian was the father of two children, so they were husband and wife?
How was it possible? Brian had never made his marriage public. How come he have children and wife?
"Yes, the father of my two children."
Winnie answered Stefan again with great affirmation. Then she looked at Brian.
"This is the owner of the hot pot restaurant I mentioned to you, the one who actively cooperated with the treatment of Megan. His name is Stefan Brooks."
Winnie introduced him to Brian, but Brian did not look good, and he returned to his usual indifference.
To Brian, Stefan was not a hotpot restaurant owner who actively cooperated with the treatment, but a man with good height and good looks.
Brian looked at the man called Stefan coldly, he knew that it was a kind of impolite behavior. But he wanted to see if Stefan was good as Winnie said.
Stefan calmed down and said hello to Brian, after all, his daughter was injured in his shop.
"Hello, Mr. Bennet. I'm sorry for your daughter’s injury. I'm sorry."
Stefan apologized, but Winnie felt embarrassed.
"You're polite, Mr. Brooks. I didn't introduce you to make you apologize. I said it's none of your business. Don’t apologize."
Winnie said, and kicked Brian under the table to signal him to say hello.
Brian received Winnie's signal and then spoke.
"There is no need to apologize, Mr. Brooks. We all know the truth. It has nothing to do with our hotpot restaurant. I should thank you for taking my daughter to the hospital in time and for your care."
“Mr. Bennet, you are polite. It's all we should do.”
Stefan said with embarrassment because a plutocrat thanked him.
"You eat, I will not disturb you. See you sometime."
Stefan felt that the momentum of Brian had a sense of oppression, and he had to leave as soon as possible.
After saying goodbye, Stefan left with a smile.
But he felt uncomfortable and could not believe that Winnie was Brian's wife.
After Stefan left, Winnie once again stared at Brian with blame and dissatisfaction in her eyes.
“What's the matter?”
Brian asked, knowing Winnie was dissatisfaction.
"Why didn't you say hello to my friend?"
Although she was dissatisfied, her tone was soft, because she did not want anyone or anything to affect their newly relaxed relationship.
Winnie continued.
"I know you are a great figure, and disdain ordinary people. But all my friends are nobody at this level. You can't look down on them all and not even say hello. You make me feel inferior and ashamed."
He was joyful that Vanessa was really his daughter, but for 21 years, he did not know he had a daughter and she had a painful life.
"You wait, I will go down."
Isobel could only compromise and went down.
As Isobel walked out of door of the community, she saw Rufus, however before she could say a word, she was pulled forward by Rufus.
Isobel was puzzled.
"Let me go, don’t pull me, it is disgrace to be seen."
Isobel resisted, but Rufus did not let her go.
"Go to the car. We can't talk here."
Holding her wrist, Rufus pulled Isobel to the car.
"Hello, Isobel."
Paul said hello to her and he could only say hello in this kind of atmosphere.
"Drive and find a quiet place."
Rufus commanded seriously and his nerve was tight.
At this moment, Isobel did not refute, because she was aware that Rufus should have important thing to talk to her.
All the way Isobel did not speak, she had been guessing. Was there any change between Winnie and Brian, or had her identity been exposed?
She had thought of anything possibilities, but she did not expect it to be related to Winnie.
They were sent to a teahouse by Paul. They got a quiet room not to be disturbed.
The two of them were in the room. Rufus finally eased his mood. However, Isobel was still confused.
"You are anxious, is it related to Winwin?"
Isobel asked anxiously before she sat down.
"No."
Rufus did not sit down, because he was too nervous to sit down.
"Did Brian know I am Winwin's aunt?"
"No."
Rufus decisively answered Isobel again.
"What is it then?"
Isobel was worried and could not calm down.
