Hey, My Twins Babies

Chapter 259 A belated apology

Although Rufus had never been to Winnie's house, he knew which floor they lived on.

When they reached Winnie's door, Rufus rang the doorbell.

Vanessa just left. Isobel thought it was she forgot something at home, so she opened the door directly.

"You..."

As she was to blame Vanessa, but found it was Rufus.

"What are you doing here?”

Isobel asked in surprise.

"I come to you. There's something I need to tell you."

Rufus said calmly with a serious face.

He was guilty to Isobel and wanted to compensate her as much as possible.

"We have finished out talk last time. Control your son, and I will control Winnie."

Isobel was about to close the door, but was stopped by Rufus.

"No, we have not finished. After all these years, we are all old, and I don't want it to be in your mind all

the time."

"Let me in, to be seen by the neighbors is not good."

Rufus insisted. He got up enough courage to see Isobel and to have the opportunity to get along with

her, he must say what he wanted to say.

Isobel had no choice but to let Rufus in.

Rufus came in and took a seat, while Isobel looked reluctant.

“What is it?”

Isobel said sternly.

The sight of Rufus reminded her of what happened many years ago and made her feel like a sinner.

She suffered from this feeling for more than 20 years, and it hurt for more than 20 years.

"All right, I'll tell you. Isobel, before I say that, I still want to say sorry to you."

Rufus said in a dignified manner.

"You did nothing wrong, so you don't have to say sorry."

"Isobel, let me finish."

"I was wrong not to tell you I had a family, but I never meant to deceive you."

Rufus mentioned things happened more than 20 years ago, it was embarrassing, but he had to say it.

All these mistakes were because of him, and it had nothing to do with Isobel and Brian's mother.

"When I was in charge of the Bennet Group, I had no right to choose my own marriage. Marrying

Brian's mother was purely for commercial interests. I had no feelings for her, and she had no feelings

for me.”

"To tell you the truth, I've been married all these years but I don't even know what love is. Since I met

you, I understood love is happy, beautiful, so I was too selfish to give you up and I didn't tell you I had a

family."

Rufus lowered his head. These words had hid in his heart for more than 20 years and been torturing

him for more than 20 years. It was his selfishness made Isobel lose her favorite job, give up her favorite

family and leave her hometown.

He made a woman's best years buried under the wrong love. He loved her but he could not protect her.

“I did hate you for not telling me the truth. But that was then. I don't hate you now. Now that it has been

so many years, there is no need to mention it. I was wrong too, without me, your wife would not..."

Isobel did not want to continue the topic. Thinking that a young woman died because of their so-called

love, she felt her grievance insignificant.

"No, I have to say it. My wife's death had nothing to do with you. It was my bad decision made you

blame yourself for the rest of your life and made her in a painful marriage."

"Isobel, her death really had nothing to do with you. It was her own reason. Why can't I say it? After all,

she's gone, and I should respect her even if I have no feelings for her.”

Rufus was sincere. It seemed that every sentence said did not have a bit of deception.

"It doesn't matter whose fault it is, we are all at this age, we had taken responsibility what we should

take. Even if I had nothing to do with it, I was a mistress of your family and had caused harm to your

children."

Isobel did not believe the death of Brian's mother had nothing to do with her. Until now she still clearly

remembered two children cried sadly in front of her, still remembered their indignation in the eyes.

These images had been affecting her for more than 20 years. How could they not be the truth?

She didn't contradict Rufus's words. She just didn't want to make the conversation longer. She just

wanted Rufus to say everything he wanted to say and never appear in front of her in the future.

She was old and had no energy to talk about things with Rufus happened more than 20 years ago. She

just wanted to live quietly for the rest of her life.

"The children didn't know anything at the time so they put the blame on you. They were too young, and

there were things I didn't tell them."

At this, Rufus stopped and then spoke again in a deeper voice.

"Speaking of these, I want to say sorry to you. It was my concealment made the children hate you hate

so many years."

“I've kept the truth of their mother's death from them till now. I would rather have them hate me for the

rest of my life than tell them. But it made you have to bear it for a lifetime."

"Isobel, I'm sorry that it was your misfortune to meet me."

“I know it's no use talking about it after all these years, but I hope you won't have any more burdens.

Don't take all the responsibility on yourself. We don't have much time left. Live the rest of your life for

yourself."

Rufus dare not have any expectation and dare not have any idea to Isobel. 20 years had passed, he

still liked her, but he did not have the courage to disturb the life of Isobel again.

"I will. I can manage my life very well. You have said what you wanted to say, do don't come to me

again. It wouldn't be good for everyone if your two children find out."

Isobel was guilty to Brian's mother for more than 20 years, it was not easy to let go.

It was very good to live so now. It was ok to be tormented and feel guilty. What Isobel worried about

was revenge to her family after Brian knew the truth, then there were more painful people.

Rufus got up and looked up at Isobel. To her, he was a sinner, his guilt to Isobel was far more than that

to Brian's mother. He felt most guilty to Isobel.

And his tragedy continued, his son would be guilty to his beloved woman one day.

"I will not come to you, and I will try my best to conceal it from Brian and Winwin. But you have to be

prepared. There are some things that we can't hide."

Rufus had to ask Isobel to have psychological preparation. Fire cannot be wrapped up in paper. And

the situation between Brian and Winnie was different.

In those days Isobel left his world, which made it slowly calm down.

However, Brian and Winnie had two children, so it was impossible for them not to contact each other.

Isobel could not be mentioned in any sentence, and the matter was exposed.

With that, Rufus was to leave, but he felt his footsteps heavy, and his heart uncomfortable.

At four o’clock in the afternoon, Winnie woke up from sleep and saw Leo's message.

"Be sure to come today if you can. There are some things the staff can't handle."

After reading Leo's message, Winnie immediately got up and then began to wash her face.

Winnie changed her clothes and went downstairs with her mobile phone and bag.

When she got downstairs, she saw Brian, who was preparing dinner.

"May I borrow your car?"

Winnie asked seriously.

"You're going out?”

Brian came out of the kitchen.

He was afraid that Winnie would leave by herself, so he had taken out the car keys in her bedroom.

"Yes, there are some problems with the game I developed with Leo, and I have to fix them."

Winnie's tone was eager. Brian knew that he could not stop her.

“I'll go upstairs and get your keys.”

With these words, Brian marched upstairs. When he came down, he not only had keys, but also had

changed his clothes.

"I'll drive you there." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"No, I can do it myself. I promise you I'll come back when the work is over."

Winnie thought that Brian was afraid of her slipping away.

"No, it's dangerous if you have a stomachache on the way."

"Either I send you, or you give up your job."

Brian insisted, and only this time could he threaten Winnie.

"All right."

Winnie was reluctant, but there was no other way.

On the way to the Johnson Group.

The car was always quiet except for the soft music that relieved the awkwardness.

Winnie tried several times to find a topic to chat with Brian as a friend, but she found that her heart

refused, so she had to keep silent.

Suddenly Brian's phone rang, breaking the silence in the car.

Brian took a look, and then put on a bluetooth headset to connect the phone.

"Yes?”

The tone was stiff without temperature.

"Do I have to call you for something? What is the use of love if we are formulaic."

The voice of Wendy's complaint passed over, but Winnie could not hear it.

"Brian, what are you busy with these days? Why didn't you even call me?"

Wendy asked gently, but she was eagerly waiting for Brian’s answer.

"Busy at work. We can go out to have a meal together when I am not busy."

Brian had to tell a lie. It was his only choice for everyone to live a peaceful life.

However, Brian's words made Winnie guess the person on the other side of the phone was Wendy.

For countless times, she had told herself not to cause unnecessary misunderstanding, but she did not

keep her words.

"All right, contact me when you're finished. Brian, take care of yourself.”

Although Wendy said in a soft voice, she had indignation.

She knew from Klara that Brian was on vacation these two days, but Klara did not know where he was,

and she could not find him.

But Klara told her that Winnie was on vacation these two days. The two once again disappeared at the

same time.

With a heart of resentment, with a heart of pain, Wendy hung up the phone.

Brian's lies hurt her too. He was on vacation, but he said he was busy working, which proved that he

was with Winnie.
