Chapter 189 Uncle Thomas Returns
Chapter 189 Uncle Thomas Returns
Felix knew that one day Brian would fall in love with Winnie.
In fact, he liked Winnie, who was strong and optimistic, kind and patient to the elderly.
But she got no background.
The Bennet family ranked top in B City, in the country, and even in the world. How could the daughter-
in-law of such a prominent family have no background?
"Grandpa..."
Brian tried to refute, but Felix put forward more requirements.
"Don't talk to me like that. If you insist on staying with Winnie, acquire the Yup Group.”
Hearing that, Brian widened his eyes in surprise. He did not expect that his grandfather would put
forward such requirement and that he was greedy.
How could he acquire the Yup Group and hurt Wendy?
“Grandpa, we can’t do that. I want to keep Winnie around because of Luke, Luke can’t leave Winnie.”
Brian did not say that he loved Winnie, because if his grandfather trampled on his love, he would be
more disappointed at his grandfather and it would bring unnecessary impact on Winnie.
“Why can’t he? A child will rely on anyone once he stays with someone for a long time. As long as
Wendy is nice to him, he will like Wendy and can’t leave Wendy.”
“Brian, even if Winnie is Luke’s mother, we can’t accept her.” NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Felix made up his mind.
He did not mean to acquire the Yup Group, he just wanted Brian to give up on Winnie. Brian had been
waiting for Wendy for years and he would not do that, Felix thought.
Brian did not say anything with a gloomy face.
He knew his grandfather, he would never take back his words. But he was disappointed at his
grandfather and got annoyed at his domineering manner.
Since childhood, he was obedient to his grandfather. But his grandfather never cared if he was happy
or not. And he was disappointed at that.
“I gotta go.”
Brian said coldly.
“Have dinner together tonight, your Uncle Thomas is coming back.”
Felix did not ask Brian to stay, but he wanted Brian to have dinner together at night.
“Uncle Thomas?”
Brian frowned.
“Yes, I have informed your father and he will bring Luke back tonight.”
With that, he left. And Brian was thinking for a moment before he walked out of the study.
On his way back to the company, Brain was thinking about Winnie and Uncle Thomas.
Uncle Thomas had been aboard for years, why did he come back suddenly? And he could not figure it
out.
And Winnie became his new worry.
What should he do? He felt distressed to let her go, but if he kept Winnie around, she would be hurt.
According to his grandfather, if he knew that Winnie was Luke’s mother, he would not give Winnie a
chance and Winnie probably could not see Luke again.
And if he knew that Megan was Brian’s child, Winnie could disappear in B City. It was pain for Winnie
and he could not bear that fact.
So he would have to hide it from his grandfather. Because it would be bad for both sides.
“Albert, does Grandpa have someone to investigate on me?”
Brian asked Albert who was driving the car.
“Yes, he does all the time.”
“Try to bribe them and tell them not to follow me. When they need to report to grandfather, I will tell
them how to report.”
Brian could not act according to Felix’s instruction, because he had to protect Winnie and he had to
guard from his Uncle Thomas.
The Bennet old house at night.
Thomas Bennet came home with his wife and son.
Brian and his father and Luke came in time.
They greeted passionately, but it was not from heart, it was just a basis politeness.
“Brother, it’s been a while.”
Thomas hugged Rufus with enthusiasm.
“It’s been a while. Welcome back.”
Rufus said.
“Is this boy Luke? He has grown up.”
Thomas was surprised to see Luke standing next to Rufus.
“Yes, Luke, this is Grandpa Thomas.”
“Nice to meet you, Grandpa Thomas.”
Luke greeted him and made a bow.
“Nice to meet you, Luke. I did not buy you a present, because I don’t know what you like. I will give a
red envelop later, and you can buy what you want.”
Thomas said in a gentle voice but there was unknown emotion in his eyes.
“And me, call me Uncle, I will give a red envelop too.”
Jack Bennet, Thomas’s son said and felt this boy adorable.
“Nice to meet you, Uncle, welcome home.”
Luke had a good performance today, not because the red envelop, but because Winnie told him to be
polite and be brave to show himself, because he represents his dad and grandpa.
“Good boy, I like you. I will give you a red envelop bigger than Grandpa Thomas’s.”
Jack had a happy talk with Luke, and Thomas paid this attention to Brian.
At this moment, he was not kind anymore, he looked gentle, but it was fake,
“Brian, I heard from your grandpa that you run the company well, I am glad with that.”
“I just paid more than others and put more energy into it.”
Brian answered in a deep voice, looking coldly.
He was not modest, because he needed not to be modest in face of his Uncle Thomas.
“Good, young men should be ambitious, and Jack should learn from you.”
Thomas was obviously awkward.
“Well, let’s have dinner.”
Felix told them to sit at the table.
The focus of the dinner was on Luke. No other things were mentioned, so it was kind of harmonious.
Winnie and Megan were not in the suburb. After Luke and Rufus left, she drove to the city with Megan
to have dinner with Leo.
“Megan, long time no see, I miss you.”
Leo said softly. Seeing that Megan looked alike Winnie, he was pleased.
“I miss you too, Uncle. But I didn’t have a change to see you.”
Megan said in a sweet and sound voice.
“Contact me more even if there is nothing important, or I will miss you.”
Leo said jokingly. He wanted to communicate with Megan, so that they could get along well.
“Ok, I will call you.”
Megan nodded, but she would not contact him, because she did not want Mommy to have too much
contact with Leo.
“Uncle, let’s order food. I am hungry.”
Megan said.
“Ok, I am so glad to see you and I have forgotten to order food.”
“What would you like? It is on me today, and you can have whatever you want.”
Leo began to order and he knew what Winnie liked.
After the food was served, they chatted while eating.
“Have you done with the procedure of the house?”
Leo asked with a bright smile.
“Yes. I have the key now and we can move in.”
Winnie finally felt relieved about the house. She suspected that the house had a problem, but it was
normal of the procedures, and it was smooth, and she could finally feel at ease.
“Good, I can help you to move in.”
“We don’t get too my stuff. I can move some in when I was off work. And when my aunt is here, we can
live in there.”
There were some boxes unopened, so she just needed to move them in.
“Are Venessa and your aunt coming? How is the thing going?”
Leo asked while helping Megan with food.
“Vanessa will go to school on August 28th and they will come back before that. My aunt’s drugstore can
be sold at any time, but she does not want to give it out.”
Winnie knew that her aunt would not sell the drugstore until the last moment.
But it was a few days to go.
“She did not want to give it out because she loved that store.”
Leo said.
“Leo, I am developing a new game. If you want that, I can sell it to you.”
Winnie mentioned the work. Brian had asked her to sell her software to the Bennet Group, but Winnie
would rather sell it to others in a lower price than sell it to the Bennet Group.
“Ok, I‘d love that. The game will be sold well for your reputation. And the business will be interesting.”
Leo was glad, because in this way, he would get more chance to contact with Winnie.
“It is my first time to develop game, I am sure it will be good. You better made decision before thinking
about it.”
Winnie was not confident as Leo, it was her first time to game after all.
“I don’t worry about it. What are you worrying? I trust in your capability.”
Lei praised Winnie. Many companied could not get her work even if they wanted to, so he had to seize
the opportunity.
After dinner, Winnie came back to suburb with Megan.
As her car parked in the yard, Brian drove in. Rufus and Luke got off.
Luke came to Winnie and gave her a hug.
“Auntie, I had a good performance today. Daddy and Grandpa praised me.”
Luke showed off happily.
