Chapter 136 Go to the Suburbs
Chapter 136 Go to the Suburbs
It was weekend two days later. Brian was driving, Winnie was in the passenger seat, and the two
children in the back.
The four of them went to the outskirts of the city to meet Brian's father.
From the beginning of the journey, Brian had been silent. Winnie could see Brian's tension and
helplessness.
"Megan, sing a song to uncle. Uncle most liked to listen to Megan singing."
Winnie could only make the child sing a song in order to relieve Brian's tense mood.
"OK, which song do you want, Uncle? I will sing as long as you want to listen to."
Megan said happily.
"As long as it is sung by Megan, I like to listen to it."
Winnie's method worked very well. Brian finally spoke. Although he was perfunctory, he tried his best.
"Well, I'll do it. A song I made for you."
Megan stood up holding the back of Brian with both hands, and then kissed on Brian's face.
"Uncle, be my Daddy, just for a while."
Megan finished Penny happily.
While Megan and Luke were singing, a few people finally arrived at the destination.
It was a three-story villa. Although it was in the suburbs, it did not affect its grand momentum.
The villa had its own courtyard, large and tidy. It was nice to look at from the outside.
The door of the villa was open, and the car drove straight into the courtyard. There were flowers and
grass, trees and pavilions in the courtyard.
As soon as the car stopped, Luke couldn't wait to get off, followed by Megan, then Winnie, while Brian
was holding the steering wheel and reluctant to get off.
Winnie walked over to him and pulled open the door.
"You will have to face it. I'm sure you'll do it well."
Winnie encouraged Brian, reached out and took his hand.
When she touched Brian's hand, she found that his hand was cold, and she knew the reason.
Brian's hand was held by Winnie and seemed to be better, and his heart was also relieved.
He held Winnie's hand to get off the car and had not let go.
They went in. The butler ran out, shouting loudly and excitedly.
"Rufus, Brian is here, Brian is here..." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
The butler was named Paul, a man of similar age with Brian's father, Rufus Bennet. He was a driver
and then became a secretary, and later he became his assistant and had worked for him for many
years.
Now he and his wife lived in the villa to take care of Rufus, Brian's father.
He watched Brian grow up and he knew everything, including why Brian did not come to see Rufus for
so many years. Therefore he was excited to see Brian here.
"Paul, long time no see."
Brian greeted him, but hid tone was stiff and his face gloomy.
However, he was nice Paul, after all, he had taken care of him since childhood.
"Long time no see. I'm glad you are here."
Paul was excited and did not know what to say, then he saw a woman with him, so he got stunned.
“Who is she?”
"Hi, Paul, I am Brian’s friend. My name is Winnie. Please call me Winwin."
Winnie greeted. If she said she was Brian's woman, she was afraid of it would frighten the people who
met her in the first time, so she could only say she was a friend, so Paul must understand.
"Hello, hello, come in please."
Paul was surprised because Brian never took a woman to home. In those days when he was with
Wendy, Wendy never stepped into Brian's house.
It seemed that this woman was not an ordinary person.
They continued to walk forward. Rufus appeared in the doorway and clearly he was excited.
"Grandfather, grandfather, I miss you, I am here to see you."
Rufus attached all the attention on Brian, and ignored the small Luke, until he heard the voice of Luke.
"Luke, I miss you too."
Rufus squatted to pick up Luke and kissed him. Luke could not help laughing.
"Grandfather, your beard pricked me."
"Oh, yeah."
Rufus stopped that but still had a kind smile on the face.
"Grandfather, put me down and I'll introduce you to a friend."
Luke said as he struggled down.
"Oh, you brought a friend."
Rufus's line of sight fell on Megan.
Seeing Megan, he lived that girl spontaneously.
"Grandfather, this is my friend, her name is Megan Chambers. We call her Megan, and you can call her
Megan."
Luke made an enthusiastic introduction. Today he WAS very happy, because he had never dare to
imagine he could follow Daddy to see grandfather.
"Megan Chambers."
Hearing the girl's surname, Rufus was stunned for a moment, and then squatted down to hold her up.
"Hello, Megan!"
Rufus said kindly.
"Hello, Grandfather!”
Megan said sweetly. Her voice was tender and she made a deep bow.
"Good girl, I like you."
Rufus did not know why he liked this child very much.
"I like you, too."
Megan kissed on Rufus's face, which made Rufus more delighted.
Brian and Winnie came to Rufus.
Brian held Winnie's hand and did not let it go. The closer he came to Rufus, the tighter his strength
became. Winnie was in pain, but she did not say anything. If it made him feel better, she would rather
her bone be crushed.
"Hello, Sir!”
Winnie had promised Brian that she would not force him to speak, so she could not expect him to
introduce her, but did it herself.
"My name is Winnie Chambers, Megan's Mommy, a friend of Brian. You can call me Winwin."
Winnie introduced in detail, and she had been wearing a warm smile on her face.
But her smile reminded Rufus of someone else. She would more alike that person without dimples.
"Oh, hello, hello, welcome to my house. Welcome."
Rufus's thoughts turned back in a moment. Then he fixed his eyes on Brian.
"You are finally here."
He said in pleasure, as if he had been waiting for a long time. There were expectations and guilt in his
eyes.
Brian did not lift his eyes, nor did he speak. He just expressed his hatred with his serious and cold face.
Seeing that, Winnie said, afraid of Rufus’ embarrassment.
"Sir, I am thirsty, I want water."
"Ok, go in and drink."
Rufus hurriedly invited them into the house. And then he found that Brian had been holding Winnie's
hand.
It seemed that his son came to see him was related to Winnie.
They walked into the villa and sat in the living room. Paul hurried to prepare water.
Rufus sat on the sofa, Megan sat beside Rufus, Luke leaned on the arms of Rufus. Winnie sat beside
Megan, while Brian sat beside Winnie, farthest from Rufus.
Since Rufus appeared, Brian did not look up. He could not look up to his father for fear that if he saw
him, he would hate him even more and recall painful memories.
He had been silent, only two children were in the communication with Rufus.
"Grandfather, this place is nice. Can I come here often?"
Megan asked with a smile.
"Sure, you are always welcomed if you want to come. I am boring here alone, you can come to play
with me."
Rufus said amiably, which was better than Brian. It was not difficult to hear from his words that he was
lonely.
"Great, Luke and I will come here in weekend."
Megan was glad, she did not expect this grandfather was so easy to get along with. At this point, she
turned her head to Winnie for advice.
"Mommy, grandfather said I can come over here to play, will you bring us over here every weekend?"
"Yes, if you like it, I will bring you here."
Winnie said yes without hesitation. The more opportunities she had, the better.
Looking at Luke and his grandfather were happy together, Winnie felt relieved. She hoped there would
be more chances they were together, so that he would not be so lonely.
But at this moment Winnie's hand felt strength from Brian. Winnie knew he was in opposition to her
opinion.
But Winnie would not accept such objections unless he said it out.
Despite Brian's objections, Winnie continued.
"Sir, the environment here is good and the air quality is good. I like here very much. If it is ok, I will
often come here with the children."
"Ok, you are welcome. Come here whenever you have time, and I can help you take care of the
children when you are busy."
Rufus was surprised that Winnie would say so, but he would never object to their coming here.
Although he was not sure what the relationship between Winnie and Brian was, they had not let go
hands since he saw them.
This was enough to prove that the relationship between them was not normal, otherwise the children
would not get along so well.
"Then we will come often. If I am busy, I will send the children here, as long as you won’t mind."
