Brian knew grandpa would be confused about this topic. Now his family all knew the reason for his
breaking up, and but Winnie’s family did not know it.
In fact, Brian felt strange, but he did not know what Winnie was thinking.
"Yeah, her family and friends know we broke up, but they don't know why."
Brian answered again.
"Why?"
Felix thought Brian should know the reason, so he asked directly. But Brian never asked why.
"I don't know. Winwin didn't say it. Maybe she was embarrassed."
This possibility was deduced by Brian, but he felt Winnie was not the kind of person who wriggly
escaped. In short, he did not understand why Winnie was now hiding.
It did not convince Felix, because he knew the truth, knew Winnie did not do anything, so Winnie would
not be embarrassed.
Since she did not tell Brian, Winnie must have her own reason.
"I will watch out. No matter what, I will respect Director Chambers and let her talk to her family and
friends."
Felix did not ask, because there was no answer, if he really wanted to know, he would ask Winnie.
"I'll go out and see the kids. I will explain and apologize to them so they don't feel bad."
Felix got up, now his focus was still on the kids.
Felix walked in front, followed by Brian.
Outside, two kids and Vanessa squatted on the grass, two kids playing with the grass, and Vanessa
persuaded them.
"How you promised your Mom? And you can't do it now. It is an adult matter, it has nothing to do with
you. Great Grandpa is good to you, he likes you, which is not affected by adults. He doesn't like your
mom, but he still likes you."
Vanessa said a lot of, but two kids were silent.
The two kids looked at each other and thought their aunt seemed to be right. But it was still
unacceptable to think they were homeless now.
"Aunt, we are kids, we can't think of anything complicated."
Luke finally gave his answer. But in Vanessa’s view, it was perfunctory.
"Why do you have that attitude to your Great Grandpa? He came to see you because he misses you.
Who can have such treatment? He is good to you, but you shouldn't be cold to him."
Vanessa tried to persuade the two kids, if the two kids continued to treat Felix like that, some people
would think that her sister had not educated them well or that her sister deliberately used the two kids.
Originally, Felix did not have good impression on her sister. She was really afraid that it would bring
trouble to her sister.
The other point was that out of politeness and worldly wisdom, two kids could not treat adults in this
way.
"Aunt, do you really think Great Grandpa is good to us?"
Megan could not help speaking at last.
"Yes, I would appreciate it if an elder did that to me."
Vanessa wanted such treatment, but she was not a member of the Bennet family, it was extravagant
hope for her.
After Vanessa's voice fell, Felix and Brian were standing not far behind them, and their conversation
could be clearly heard.
Brian was about to interrupt, but Felix raised his hand to stop him. He wanted to listen to Megan’s word
and wanted to know her true thought.
Megan did not agree with her aunt's statement, or she really did not understand the adult’s world. She
became serious, and then she spoke her thought.
"No, I don't think so. I think Great Grandpa is not really good to us. He does not really love us. The
person who truly loves us never forgets what we need and never deprives us of what we need most. If
he loves us, he will pay for us, just like Mom takes any grievances for use. Even if she broke up with
Dad, she does not leave here."
Megan said in one breath, because of she was emotionally excited.
In Megan's eyes, except her mother, none of them really loved them. Even her dad sad he loved them.
But he did nothing for them. Maybe dad made an effort, but she really didn't feel it.
She was dissatisfied with her father and Great Grandpa, but no one cared about them because she
was too small. No one cared about their feelings, they could change anything, she and her brother
could only be sad.
"Megan..."
"Megan."
Vanessa could understand her helpless and sour heart, but she still wanted to persuade the kids, so as
not to distort their thoughts, so as not to change their attitude towards the world.
But as she spoke, another voice called Megan.
Vanessa looked back and saw Felix and Brian standing not far away. She was just disappointed to see
them without surprise. If they did not come, she could persuade the kids, but now they would be more
resistant and her words would be meaningless.
"Grandpa, you're here."
Vanessa greeted and stood up, then took the two kids to stand up.
"Vanessa, can I talk with the kids alone?"
Hearing those piercing words, Felix remained calm. He wanted to try his best to persuade the kids. But
the presence of Vanessa and Brian could affect the effectiveness of their talks.
"No problem. It's time I go home."
This was his house, so she could not say no.
Vanessa had the idea of going home at that moment she saw Brian and Felix, but she did not put
forward. Now Felix was offering her a chance.
"Vanessa, I am not driving you away. You can play with the kids and have lunch together before
leaving."
Felix asked Vanessa to stay, he just wanted to talk to the kids alone, and did not drive Vanessa away.
"Grandpa, I know. My sister is busy at home with her work. I have to make her something to eat or she
will be hungry."
Vanessa insisted and could only find an excuse.
"Grandpa, you talk to the kids, and I'll talk to Rufus. Grandpa, my sister and I welcome you to visit our
home. Goodbye, grandpa, goodbye, Brian!"
Vanessa then turned and walked toward the house.
The last word was against her heart, but Vanessa had to say so, to prevent Felix from having any other
thoughts about her sister.
When Vanessa came out of the house, Brian was waiting for her at the door.
"I send you back, Paul went out."
Brian was afraid that it was not safe for Vanessa to go home alone, so he wanted to send her back.
"No, Brian, I'll take the bus home."
Vanessa rejected the kindness of Brian. She did not want to bother anyone like Winnie. However, Brian
insisted.
"Come on, it's not safe to take the bus."
Brian went to the car, Vanessa had to follow him.
On the way home.
"Vanessa, do you blame be for breaking up with your sister?"
Brian broke the silence of the car. He saw Vanessa was polite to him on surface, she did not mean it at
all.
Vanessa saw that Brian could see through her mind, there was no need to disguise. She sighed, as if
pretending was tired.
"Yes, but I am grateful too. You were so determined to say you loved my sister, but in the end you
abandoned her and made her a joke to everyone."
Vanessa did not beat around the bush but directly pointed out her resentment.
"If you hate me, why thank me?"
Brian listened carefully and felt distressed. He wanted to protect Winnie for a lifetime, to love her for a
lifetime, but she overstepped the rules.
"Thank you for letting go of my sister, otherwise she would still be discriminated against in your family.
And you know better than I how many wrongs and wounds she had suffered."
"My sister used to be so bitter, I couldn't even see a smile on her face. Now though she does not
mention you in front of anyone, though I do not know whether her heart is still bitter, at least she has a
strong, sunny, positive heart."
What Vanessa said was true, although it made Brian uncomfortable, in this way, Brian never bothered
her sister again.
"Brian, I used to believe that you were the person who loved my sister the most in the world, not only
the warm harbor for my sister, but also the person that my family depended on for a lifetime. But I was
too simple, I thought your position is simple, and out the position of my sister too high. She doesn't
really matter to you."
"Well, it's over. No matter what happened before, the road in the future is smooth."
Vanessa did not know if it was right to say so. She felt that the gap between Brian and her sister was
clear. Only Brian saw it clearly, and only he knew that even without the hindrance of Felix, he did not
love Winnie deeply as he said.
When he figured it out, her sister would have a smooth life.
However, Brian did not agree with what Vanessa said. Winnie’s position in his heart was higher than
that Vanessa thought.
Brian frowned, but he did not retort. Even no one could replace Winnie in his heart, the fact Winnie had
a lot of suffering when she was with him could not be changed. Winnie suffered a lot of discrimination,
he did not refute the fact.
At that time, Winnie was unhappy and even faked a smile. She looked better now. At least she was
with the man she liked.
"Did your sister ever tell you why we broke up?"
Brian asked. But it seemed that Vanessa did not know it, or she would not speak so justly.
"No, she did not my aunt either. She just said that it was her fault, that she had done something wrong."
Vanessa thought about it and was determined that Winnie had not told her the reason. She had been
curious, but she respected her sister, so she never asked.
