Chapter 257 Taking Care of the Sick

Hearing Winnie's words, Brian felt uncomfortable, but he could only use this way to persuade Winnie.

Brian continued when Winnie ate porridge silently.

"Eat, millet porridge nourishes the stomach. I put some honey in it, sweet and delicious."

"Kevin said you need infusion for a few days. Live here and I will ask Kevin to give you infusion these
days. Take time off from work or you can deal with urgent things here. I have a separate studio next to
my study. Bring your computer and you can work."

Brian arranged everything for Winnie and hoped she could get well soon.

"Even if we are friends, I can't bother you all the time. I'd better go home."

Winnie refused because she had no reason to stay.

"They children will worry about you if you go home. Tomorrow I will ask Albert to bring your bag and
mobile phone. Your computer may be in the car. You call home, lest they worry about you. You are
leaving here when you are well."

Brian's tone was very firm. He did not want Winnie to leave.

"No, if Wendy will misunderstand if she finds out."

Winnie still insisted. She just wanted to live a peaceful life and did not want to bring unnecessary
trouble to anyone. If Wendy saw her here, they would inevitably quarrel, and she would once again ruin
their relationship.

"You are the only woman who comes in and out of here. I have never brought Wendy here and I will
never bring Wendy here."



Brian's mood was affected, when it came to Wendy, he could not calm down.

Wendy really did not know about this villa.

This villa was originally prepared for Wendy, but before he told Wendy, Wendy went abroad. Brian
thought she would come back sooner or later, and when she came back, it would be a surprise and
their wedding room.

But Winnie became the hostess of the villa earlier than Wendy. Brian took it as memory of he and
Winnie, and Wendy would not be there.

Winnie stared at Brian in confusion.

What did he mean? Why was she the only woman here? Did she defile this place or he did not want
others to destroy the peace here?

"Winwin, no matter how hard we try, we can’t forget some memories, since so, I would rather keep it."

Brian said hoping Winnie could understand him.

"Well, this porridge is delicious."

"You eat too. Go to bed early since you have to work tomorrow."

Winnie changed the topic. She did not want to guess his meaning, because no matter what he said,
she could not change the reality.

Winnie focused on eating and did not argue with Brian whether to stay or leave, because this topic
would extend a lot of questions.

After Winnie finished eating, she went upstairs to have a sleep. It was the same room and the same
bed. The bed still had Brian's unique manly breath.



As Winnie lied in bed, Brian opened the door and came in.

"Take your medicine before you go to sleep."

Brian took the medicine and water to Winnie's bed and handed the medicine to Winnie.

"I'd forgotten."

Winnie sat up and took the medicine.

"Drinking more water will do you good."

Brian said. He never did that for a woman and never expected that he would care about others.

"Why don't you go to bed undressed?"

Brian asked Winnie who was still wearing her clothes.

"No need."

Winnie had no pajamas here. Though she was familiar with this villa, she was not accustomed to
sleeping naked.

"There are pajamas and clothes in the wardrobe, and you can wear whatever you want."

Then Brian left.

Winnie lied back on the bed. She did not know whose clothes there were, and was not in the mood to
see them.

But why did he have women's clothes since there were no women here?

Curious, Winnie got up, went to the wardrobe and opened it.



Many of the clothes inside are women's for every season, including pajamas and underwear with
trademarks on.

Winnie was surprised and did not know who these were for.

She picked one up and saw the size on it, which coincidentally matched her size. And then she found a
few were her size. Winnie was confused, but she did not dare to have delusion.

However, Winnie took pajamas to change and then fell asleep comfortably.

Winnie did not know how long she slept, but the sun was already very bright when she woke up.

She went downstairs in the pajamas she wore the night before. If Brian wasn't there, she would leave.
But he was busy in the kitchen, making a mess.

“You are up?”

Brian asked as he cooked.

"Yes, let me do it."

Winnie had never known that Brian could cook, so seeing him like this, she wanted to help.

"No, it will be done in a minute. Just wash your hands and come to eat."

Brian refused Winnie's help. No matter how difficult the cooking was, he wanted to cook for Winnie.
And it was his first time to cook.

"Ok, I'll wash my face."

Winnie said and went back upstairs. When she went upstairs, she looked back because she was
worried that Brian could not do well.



By the time Winnie came down, Brian had set the table with four dishes and a soup. It looked good,
though she didn't know how it would go.

"I'll have to leave right after dinner. It's too much trouble for you if I am here."

Winnie knew that she was delaying Brian's time and that his time was valuable. But her heart was
really warmed when she looked at the table.

"You do it again. Will you feel comfortable when you cook for your friend and he says so?"

Brian spent the whole morning on cooking, and he did not want to hear that from Winnie.

"Sit down and taste it. Be prepared that it might taste awful."

Said Brian in a commanding tone, but he was happy at the moment, for personally cooking for his
beloved woman.

Winnie did not continue the topic, but obediently sat down and began to taste one by one.

To her surprise, it wasn't as bad as she expected, just a little too light.

"Well?”

Brian asked, for fear that the food he cooked would be hard to swallow.

"Good, but the taste is a little light."

Winnie gave her opinion.

"Light is good. You can't eat anything heavy now."

Finally he felt relieved and began to eat.



After listening to Brian's words, Winnie knew that the taste was light because of her. She was moved.

"Does my presence make it harder for you to work? Go to work if you're busy. I'm better and able to
take care of myself."

Winnie repressed her heart, telling herself that she must treat Brian with indifference and must not be
confused because of a meal.

"No, I am not busy these days. I am not here to company with you, it is I want to be lazy."

How could Brian say he was busy? If he said so, Winnie might leave without eating.

"Oh, I'm wearing the pajamas in the wardrobe. I'll buy you a new one."

Winnie from time to time looked for a different topic, so that they would not be embarrassed.

"No need. It's all for you."

Brian said inadvertently and then added feeling Winnie was surprised.

"I prepared it for you before Wendy came back. It's been there all along."

The clothes in Brian's wardrobe were all new, which he had prepared for Winnie.

Because he knew that he would miss Winnie when he was drunk, and would take Winnie here for no
reason, so he prepared what Winnie needed in her daily life.

But he could not tell Winnie, so she would feel pressure.

"Ok."



Brian's explanation made her disappointed, but she could do nothing about it. She had too much
disappointment, and that was just one of them.

"I want to go to the hospital for infusion after eating, and your car..."

In short, Winnie was thinking of ways to leave. Being together with Brian was a torture for her.

The man she loved was in front of her, but she could not be with him?

"Kevin is on his way and will arrive right after we have dinner. I told you to stay here, not go to the
hospital, not go to work. Your bag, mobile phone and computer have been sent by Albert. After dinner,
call home and you will stay here."

Brian interrupted Winnie's words.

Winnie did not know what reason to leave here, so she could only give up the dialogue with Brian.

As Winnie and Brian had just finished their meal, Kevin arrived.

They came to Winnie's bedroom. Kevin asked while preparing the infusion.

"Does it hurt today?"

"Better..."

"Much better, but I don't think the dosage was not enough. Add more and it won't hurt."

As Winnie was to answer Kevin's question, Brian interrupted her.

It was as if the sick man was Brian, as if he understood Winnie's pain.



"Too much medicine will do harm to the human body. If the overdose of medicine affects her normal
life, will you support her for a lifetime?"

Kevin looked at Brian who was not calm and wanted to laugh, but Winnie was ill and he felt it was not
right to do so.

"You're talkative. Watch your tongue."

Brian gave Kevin a cold look. Winnie gave a bitter smile.

She was still a healthy person but Brian did not want her, if she could not have a normal life, she would
disappear from the world of Brian forever.

"Fine. I am Winwin’s attending physician. Please let the patient answer my questions."

Kevin continued to naughty. He knew that Brian would do nothing to him since Winnie was there.
