Chapter 562 The Bennet Family

She was drunk, but some of her memories were pretty clear. Winnie remembered everything except
the time she spent in the hotel until three in the morning.

She remembered Brian's news, the conversation between her and Stefan, vomiting on the way and
Vanessa's phone call.

She remembered all the sad things, but after she got drunk and talked with Stefan, she felt much better
and less negative.

Winnie lay on the bed, thinking and rubbing her drowsy head. She was glad it was the weekend,
otherwise it would have seriously affected her work.

Vanessa was worried about Winnie during the whole meal, so she soon finished eating.

"You two eat slowly. When you finish, go upstairs and clean up your rooms. I will check which room is
cleaner. I will take whoever is good downstairs to play."

Vanessa coaxed the kids so that she got some time for herself.

After that, she went to Winnie's room.

She came to Winnie's bedside. Seeing that her sister was gloomy, she could not help but sigh.

"Shall I go downstairs and get you some antidote?"

"No, I didn't sleep well. I'll be fine after a rest."

Winnie was really uncomfortable, but she could not say it out, or Vanessa would be more worried.

"Vanessa, are you free today?"



Winnie asked in a low voice, which sounded feeble.

"Yes. You can take a rest. I'll take care of the kids."

Even if she got something to do, she could not go out but had to accompany her sister since her sister
was so sad.

"Ok. I have a coat in the pocket by the door, take it to the dry cleaner."

Winnie pointed to the paper bag at the door.

"Ok."

Vanessa readily agreed and then asked about Brian.

"Sister, Brian had been calling last night, and I turned off my phone in the end. He's worried about you.
Would you like to call him back?"

Vanessa conveyed the worries of Brian to Winnie after a moment of thinking.

"I'll call him later."

Winnie gave a bitter smile. There was nothing about her to be worried. He just needed to deal with his
thing.

"Sister, what is your plan?"

Vanessa had always wanted to ask this question, and had always wanted to persuade her sister to give
up Brian. Life was so short, she should not only focus on one man.

Even if she had kids, she could not be indulged in Brian. Even if she had kids, she could not be so
depressed.



"I'm not sure. I'll think about it later."

Winnie gave her answer.

She had not yet decided what to do. If she continued, she had to endure the pain. If she separated
from Brian, she was sorry to her kids.

It was difficult to make decision. She did not want to have heartache and did not want kids had single
parent.

"Think it over. I'll support you whatever you decide."

Vanessa did not push her. She knew that her sister was now in the most chaos, she needed time to
think it over.

"Take a bath before you go to bed. It will make you feel better. I'll take the clothes away, and you can
sleep and not worry about the kids. I'll go out and bring them down to play."

After Vanessa turned away, Winnie sighed.

Her stupid things made everyone worry. She felt her life was getting worse.

Instead of calling Brian immediately, Winnie got out of bed and went to the bathroom. She needed to
take a shower and think if she should call Brian.

After taking a bath, she felt much better, but sleepy.

Winnie closed the curtains and lay down on the bed.

Holding the phone in her hand, she thought for a long time before she removed Brian out of the
blacklist.



Winnie decided to call Brian.

"I've been drinking last night and I haven't got up yet. Vanessa is taking care of the kids."

Winnie told him about the situation before Brian said a word.

She felt that was all she could say at the moment.

"Did you drink too much? Do you have headache?"

Brian showed his concern. He felt more relieved as he heard the voice of Winnie.

"No."

Winnie gave a decisive answer.

Even if she had headache, it had nothing to do with Brian. There was no need to let him know.

"Winwin, yesterday..."

Brian wanted to explain, so that they could feel better, but Winnie didn't want to hear it. So she
interrupted him when she heard the word “Yesterday”.

"I'm sleepy. I want to sleep. We will talk when you get back."

Winnie hung up the phone directly.

She did not want to listen to Brian's explanation, because she had not decided how to continue their
relationship. She was afraid that she could not sleep and had headache after hearing that.

She needed two more days to think about what she should do.



Winnie turned off her phone and went to sleep leaving everything behind. She did not wake up until
three o'clock in the afternoon.

The first thing she did when she woke up was to turn on her phone, only to receive a message from
Felix.

Before she read it, Winnie felt a headache. The Bennet Group made things difficult for her.

In the evening, Winnie took two kids to a Chinese restaurant to have dinner with Felix. This was the
message that Felix had sent her.

Felix asked her bring Vanessa with her, but Vanessa refused. So there were only four people at the
table.

Winnie, two kids and Felix.

"Why isn't your sister here?”

Felix had guessed what was going on, but he still asked.

Winnie wanted to make up a reason, but Megan spoke before she did.

"My aunt will have an exam soon. She is studying her lessons at home."

Megan unintentionally said, but she knew why her aunt did not come. And she still minded what
happened in the old house.

"Aunt is good in study, you must take aunt as an example."

Felix did not think much and did not expect that the kids still cared about what happened that day.

"Grandpa, we will study hard, so that we can be able to protect our mother."



Felix was surprised to hear that.

The purpose of studying hard for the kids was to protect their mother. Did they know Brian's blind date?

Joe was suspicious, but he made no mention of it.

"Good, no matter what the reason is, as long as you study hard, you are good kids."

After that, Felix took a look Winnie, but Winnie was expressionless.

She was no longer restricting the kids' right to speak, no longer telling them to be careful what they
said, because Felix would not change his attitude towards her.

Since then, there was no need to please anyone, no need to lower her self-esteem for the sake of
humble love, but she still respected the elderly.

"Chairman, Vanessa is not here because she is afraid of causing me trouble. But she did ask me to
thank you for your kind invitation."

Winnie did not lie, but she said tactfully.

After that, no one would ask Vanessa to see the Bennet family, and Vanessa did not have to face them,
she thought.

"All right, I came to thank you for helping the Bennet Group. I, as the chairman, should express my
gratitude."

Felix's attitude today was better than before. Although Megan told a lie, although Vanessa did not come
because she did not want to see him, he did not show a black face.

But Winnie did not expect that Felix placed an envelope on the table and pushed it to her.



"It's not your duty to do that job, but you saved us from the loss. This money..."

"Chairman."

Winnie interrupted Felix at the critical moment. She could not allow Felix to continue, since two kids
were staring at the envelope with curiosity.

It would have bad influence on kids. In their heart, they were families, but he thanked her with money, it
was ridiculous.

They would be uncomfortable that the Bennet Group familyFamily did not take their mom as a family.

Before Winnie spoke, she pushed the envelope back to Felix.

"Chairman, the loss was saved by me, but I did not help as an employee, but as a family. So you don’t
need to do this."

Winnie said so because of the kids’ doubts. She did not take the opportunity to get close to the Bennet
family.

But Felix frowned.

"I should thank you..."

"Megan, Luke, you go outside to play. Play at the door. Don't go far."

Winnie interrupted Felix in another way. If she did not interrupt him, if she did not talk to Felix alone, the
two kids' hearts would be covered with haze.

The two kids went out obediently and then Winnie spoke.

"Chairman, there are things I don't want my kids to hear. They are out now, you can say it now."



Since the kids were out, Winnie had nothing to care. Anyway, she was used to Felix's cold words and
cold attitude towards her.

"I just want to give you some money because you've helped the company, no matter what position you
have."

Felix's tone was gentle, but there was a reminder in his words. He reminded that Winnie was not a
member of the Bennet family and he should thank her with money.

Winnie raised her mouth sarcastically and then said calmly.

"Chairman, you may have misunderstood. I said that only for the sake of the kids. I don't want them to
see that their mother can be dealt with money, and I don't want them to think that family’s gratitude has
to be done with money."

"For both of us, I have nothing to do with the Bennet family, but the kids didn't think so. They think
mom, dad, their aunt, grandaunt and the Bennet family are their families. I told them that even the
servants and nannies in the Bennet family must be treated like family members."
