Winnie was not in a good mood now. No women would like to hear her man talking about his ex-girlfriend.
Anyway, she did want to hear that Brain said about things related to Wendy.
She felt she was normal to have such thought, because she loved him and cared about her. Because she loved him, so she wished her man only had her in his heart, his mouth and his brain, instead of that he kept talking about another woman.
But she did not say it out and could only think in heart and only she knew she was upset.
“So you are worried about me and care about me.”
Winnie did not know whether she had thought too much. She had not notice any wrong the way Jonny looked at her.
She only took a look at Jonny.
“Yes, you are my woman, I sure care about you. What? Do you like foreign men?”
With that, he sat next to Winnie and held her in arms and asked with jealousy.
Winnie sneered out. If Brian was jealous or not, she felt him cute.
“If I like foreign men, I might have married for many times. I studied here and I contacted with foreign men. Many of them like women in our country.”
“Go home, go home now. Luke quits the competition, or he will lose his mother.”
Brian said jokingly. Seeing that Winnie smiled, he felt happy, but he believe that Winnie was favored.
In Wendy’s room.
She was exhausted because of being tortured last night and now she wanted to have a rest.
After bath, she went to bed, put the phone away and turned off the light.
As she was sleepy, she was bothered by her phone.
It was Jonny calling. Wendy felt sick, but she had to pick it up.
“I am going to sleep, why you call?”
Wendy was angry.
“I have something to ask you.”
Jonny did not care if Wendy was angry or not.
“We will talk about it tomorrow.”
Wendy did not want to talk to Jonny at this moment, for fear effecting her mood to get some sleep.
“Can you remarry me?”
Jonny continued to say.
“Jonny, I don’t want to lie to you, do you think it’s possible. I am not used to the life style here now and I don’t want to come back.”
“Jonny, don’t force me, I don’t want to remarry you.”
Wendy had determined that she would not remarry Jonny and she was sick of him.
“How about the kid? Don’t you think of her?”
Jonny asked.
“I am sorry for her. After I finish my work, if you agree, I will pick her up. That is what I can do.”
Speaking of the kid, Wendy was guilty. But there was nothing she could change, and she could only be sorry for the kid.
“You like Winnie’s husband, right? When you were with me, did you contact him secretly?”
Jonny asked a question that made Winnie shocked.
“No, I don’t like him. I did not contact anyone when I was with you. It was you overthinking. If you were not suspicious, I would not leave you.”
Wendy denied at the fast speed, but Jonny did not believe her.
“You are lying that you did not contact him secretly. If you don’t like him, why you deal with Winnie? If you don’t like him, why you went back to your country leaving the kid here?”
“Wendy, don’t lie to me. It is obvious that you like that man. And don’t say it was my fault that we separated, don’t say I suspect you. Because you did that, I did not believe you.”
Jonny hated Wendy that she pushed the responsibility to him. She was not responsible but self-righteous.
Winnie was composed and smart. He only met Winnie once and had not much communication with her, but from his eyes, he knew she was smart.
“I wanted to give Winnie a lesion because of our work, it has nothing to do with men.”
Wendy defended, she did not want Jonny to know about her stuff.
“Humph…you can deny it, but I believe my judgement. You told me to get close to Winnie because you want me to have her and you will have the man. You want to hide this from me? You are too naïve.”
Jonny thought it was related to Winnie’s husband, no matter what Wendy said, he would not believe her.
“This man is Brian Bennet, a capable entrepreneur with his industry all over the world. He invests a lot of projects in our country. He is rich, handsome, tall and domineering, will you let go such a man?”
Jonny said out Brian’s basic information. He was not surprised that Wendy liked such a man, but Wendy had not better tricks.
The competition went on.
40 people were sifted out yesterday, and today 30 people would be sifted out, 15 in the morning and 15 in the afternoon.
Oscar advised Luke to rank about 20th, even if he was capable, he should not tank the first ten.
“Your total score is ok, and you can get more score tomorrow.”
Oscar said to Luke and wondered if he could control his position.
“I will try my best.”
Luke answered in a low-profile manner.
“Luke, you have to be prepared for the last park. In the final, if there is fifty-fifty, it will have extra task.”
Oscar said that because he believed that Luke could enter the final.
“Skill of hackers?”
Luke asked.
“Yes, but don’t worry. They will give you a fixed attack range, it depends the time to break it. As long as you are fast, you will win.”
Oscar knew Luke’s ability in hackers, plus he had accessed in the monitoring system of the police station, he was more confident.
But it was Winnie told Luke the skill of hackers, and he only taught Luke a bit.
Luke nodded, he was not confident about the improvised part, but as long as he could enter the final, he would try his best.
Luke did a good job today and ranked 19th.
“Luke is potential. It is beyond my expectation that he could control his result.”
Oscar praised Luke during the dinner. He felt it was his luck that he could meet such a talent.
“He is potential, but Winwin’s education is important. If Luke can have a good result, the person I am most grateful was Winwin.”
Brain recognized Winnie’s efforts. If it were not Winnie, Luke’s talent would be buried, and he could not attend an international competition as he was 6 years old.
“Luke studied hard. Every kid is potential, it depends on if the kids can use it. No matter what the result is, I am satisfied.”
Winnie felt warm in heart. With Brian’s recognition, she felt her efforts worth it.
But she could not let Luke be haughty now. He had to be composed, adjust is mood so that he could do a good job in the competition.
