Chapter 781 Unhappy Lunch
Chapter 781 Unhappy Lunch
Winnie was tired in preparing the lunch, but she was happy. Not to mention Brian, she felt glad to cook
for her sister, Rufus and the kids.
At the table.
"Winwin, you finally have a day off, but you still cooked for us. Thank you."
Rufus said politely. It had been a long time they did not eat together, not only the kids, but also Rufus
felt happy.
The relationship between the people at the table was complicated. There was his daughter, son,
grandson and granddaughter, as well as Winnie, who he did not know what identity she should be. But
it was so harmonious.
"It's all right, Rufus, it is just a meal."
Winnie answered with a smile. She was really tired after cooking, but it was a rare opportunity. She felt
that the joy she could bring to others.
"Winwin, how many days can you stay at home?"
Rufus asked.
"I'm leaving tonight. I've got work to do in the next morning."
If Rufus did not ask, Winnie would not mention this topic, because she felt meaningless to speak of that
in face of Brian, who would thought she was deliberately revealing her itinerary.
"It is urgent, have some sleep here after lunch, otherwise you will be tired at night."
Rufus was guilty, if he had known Winnie would not leave tonight, he would not have her to cook the
lunch.
"No, Rufus, Vanessa and I will go after dinner. In the afternoon, I made an appointment with Vanessa's
teacher to talk about her situation. I'm not at home, so I want her teacher to take care of Vanessa."
Winnie came back with a full schedule, she felt busy than work.
"Mom, when do you come back next time? Won’t you send brother and I to school?"
Megan asked her mother hearing that her mother was to leave. She had just spent a few hours with her
mother, and she didn't want her mother to leave so soon.
"I will be back when you go to school. I will not be absent from your important moment."
Winnie promised the kids, otherwise she would be difficult to leave.
To be honest, she loved to be with her family and wanted to spend every minute with her kids, but there
was nothing she could do.
Brian did not want Winnie to leave. Hearing that, he became immediately gloomy.
He really wanted to marry Winnie at this moment and kept her at home. He did not want her to run
around like a bum.
However, he had made such a happy way into complete mess, it was her made Winnie had to escape
away.
"You don't have to worry about Vanessa. I'll talk to her teacher. Take a good rest this afternoon and
don't get too tired."
Brian tried to help Winnie reduce her burden.
"Thank you. I'll take care of Vanessa. When my aunt is not at home, I am her parent and I have this
responsibility and obligation."
Winnie not only refused Brian and told him that he did not have the right identity to see Vanessa's
teacher.
She could solve her own affairs by herself. And she dared not ask Brian for help.
"Yes, my sister is familiar with my teacher and knows how to communicate. Thank you, Brian, but we
can deal with it."
Vanessa refused with the fastest speed, she did not want to make her sister embarrassed because of
her own sake, and did not want Brian to be with her sister again by pleasing her.
Brian was slightly embarrassed and knew two sisters could not accept him.
"All right, then. What time is the flight in the evening? I'll take you to the airport."
Brian did not give up. He knew he might be rejected, but he had to try.
"I will drive myself, and I will drop the car at the airport and I can drive back, so that I won’t bother
anyone."
Winnie really refused. Anyone she referred to included Brian.
Even if she didn't have a car, she wouldn't bother Brian.
Brian did not speak again, he knew that no matter what he said, Winnie would refuse. It seemed that
he had to do it directly instead of asking.
"Mom..."
Megan was to ask something, Brian's phone rang.
He left it in the kitchen while he was cooking.
"Dad, I'll get your phone."
Luke ran to get his phone.
He got his phone and said directly.
"Dad, It is Wendy.”
Hearing that, he looked towards Winnie.
Winnie was lowering her head to eat vegetables. Hearing that, she paused.
But then she continued to eat, because no matter who called, it was none of her business.
"Put it back. Don't answer it."
Brian chose not to answer the phone, for fear of affecting everyone's mood for dinner.
Luke obediently put the phone back to the original position. But when he returned to his seat, his phone
rang again.
Brian got up to take the phone. He frowned irritably seeing that it was Wendy calling. He thought for a
moment before he answered the phone.
"What is it?”
Brian asked in a cold voice.
"Brian, there is something wrong with the company, and you need to solve it. Would you like..."
"It's Sunday, how can there be a problem?"
Brian thought Wendy was deceiving him and interrupted her before she could finish her words.
"I don't know, I'm on my way to the company now. My dad and mom went back to visit grandpa, and he
couldn't make it back. You'd better go to the company."
Wendy was eager. She did not know what happened, but she knew that she was unable to deal with
the emergency.
"I'm on my way."
Brian was not sure whether it was true or not. He didn’t know what happened, so he could only say so.
After putting down the phone, Brian walked quickly to the table and looked at everyone with a sorry
look on his face.
"I have business to deal with."
There was silence and no reply.
The two kids looked at their father in disappointment, while Rufus looked embarrassed. Vanessa
looked at her sister.
At this time, she was angry. If she heard correctly, it was Wendy. Brian a few days ago vowed to be
back with her sister, but Wendy’s call made him easily out.
Who would believe he was sincere?
Among these people, Winnie was calm and she had guessed such a situation when the phone rang the
second time.
From what Brian said, it was clear that there was a problem with his work. But it was not about the
work. It was about Wendy. Whether it was business or private affairs, Brian would help Wendy.
Winnie felt if she was dying and wanted to see Brian, but if Wendy needed help at that moment, he
would certainly go and see Wendy.
So he would anyhow desperate to help Wendy. So she could only eat calmly instead of being jealous?
What was the point?
"Brian, do what you have to do."
Vanessa said.
"If my guess is correct, it must be about Wendy. You must help her, so that you will not fall in love in
vain."
Vanessa said sarcastic words, and looked at him with disdainful eyes.
She despised him for breaking his word, for playing with his sister's feelings.
Brian was embarrassed but helpless. After all, he owned the company, and it was his duty to deal with
the problems if he was called by others.
Brian knew that such a sudden departure was not good, and it was Wendy called. Winnie didn't say
anything, but he knew she must have been affected.
"Winwin, Wendy's company..."
Brian wanted to explain. He felt that as long as it came to Wendy's company, Winnie should know that
the company was his, and she would understand why he had to go deal with it.
However, Winnie did not know it was his company, because Winnie did not read his document.
Winnie had a special feeling for Wendy’s company, after all, it used to be the company of her family.
Speaking of Wendy's company, she did not know how to describe her feeling.
All she could do was to interrupt Brian.
"I didn't say anything. Go ahead. No matter whose company it is, focus on work."
Winnie said, without looking up at Brian.
It had nothing to do with her, it was between Brian and Wendy, so she had nothing to say.
Brian left in a hurry after a moment of hesitation. People at the table were in a bad mood and remained
silent. It turned into an unhappy lunch.
Brian dealt with things with anger on his face. He finally got a chance to dine with Winnie and have a
chat, but he was called back to the company, so he was annoyed.

After that, Brian was to leave, thinking he could see Winnie if he got home at this hour. However, he
was delayed by Wendy.
“Brian, you must have had no lunch at this hour. I haven't eaten either. Let's eat out together."
Wendy spoke softly, but timidly, because Brian was in a rage when he was dealing with business. She
plucked up the courage to ask Brian to have dinner with her.
"Eat out?"
