Chapter 286 A Special Birthday
Chapter 286 A Special Birthday
Megan finally chose to eat hot pot, but Winnie had not agreed.
"What will you say, Mommy?"
"Mommy, you've been tired all day, and it's hard to cook. Let's go out to eat."
Luke begged, for fear that her mother opposed and destroyed their plan.
Winnie had a lot of work to do today, and she was really tired.
She thought about it.
"Okay, let's go out and eat hot pot if you want."
"Thanks Mommy."
"Thanks Mommy!”
The two children successfully completed the task, looked at each other and secretly smiled.
Arriving at a hot pot restaurant where they often eat, Winnie chose a quieter table.
As three people just sat down, Brian appeared in Winnie's line of sight. And closer and closer, he sat
directly opposite her.
"Daddy, what a coincidence. What are you doing here?"
Megan said and cooperated with Brian.
"I passed by and saw Mommy's car, so I come in. I saw you when I was at the door, there's no reason I
don’t come."
Brian found a good excuse.
"Miss Chambers, do you mind if I sit here? I haven't had my supper either."
Brian jokingly asked Winnie's opinion, but he had determined that he would not leave even if Winnie
opposed.
Winnie looked at Brian, and looked at the strange smile of the two children. She felt she got fooled.
They must have planned to go out to dinner together.
"Will you leave if I say no?"
Winnie knew it was unnecessary to ask such question.
"No."
Brian immediately gave an answer. If he felt, this scene would not have happened.
"Then order food, eat and go home early."
Although she knew they were purposeful, Winnie did not destroy the two children's mood. Although the
children smiled complacently, the smile when they saw their father was from the heart.
"Not only will I order, but I'll pay. It's my treat today."
Brian tried to keep the atmosphere lively and keep his face warm, because it was Winnie's birthday and
it was the first time that the family of four sat together to celebrate her birthday. Although there was no
a word of birthday wishes, it left a good memory for the four people.
After the meal, no one mentioned the birthday, which made Winnie feel relieved. At last, Megan
proposed.
"Mommy, Daddy, let's take a family picture. If Daddy gets married, he won't be ours."
"I agree, whenever the four of us are together, we must take a picture. So we can always take it out
and look at it."
Luke said. He thought that with the family picture, it proved that they were a family, proved that they
had the happiness of home, and they could grow up with less regret.
Winnie and Brian glanced at each other, but made no rebuttal.
They could give the children a home, at least to meet the requirements of them.
"Come on, Luke, let's sit with Mommy. Let's take a family picture."
Brian took Luke's hand and walked to Winnie. Because they had to close to take the picture, so they
followed the instruction of the waiter who helped to take the pictures.
"Sir, you stand at the back and bend down, be close to you wife. Your children have grown this big and
you still shy?"
The waiter’s words made Winnie very uncomfortable. As she just was to explain that she was not
Brian's wife, Megan interrupted her.
"Daddy, put your arms around Mommy's shoulders and bend down and place your face close to
Mommy's."
Megan smiled and gave Daddy a look. Brian was very willing to cooperate, even if there was no hint of
the children, he would do so.
Then Brian bent down and put his arm on Winnie's shoulder and stroked Luke's head with his other
hand. Megan was standing in the middle.
"Good, good, don't move. I'm going to take it."
The waiter pressed the shoot button.
"Change the pose and I will take a few more pictures. You are good looking."
The waiter said enviously, this family really amazed him.
After the pictures were taken, Brian spoke while flipping through them.
"I'll send you the pictures."
"Send to Luke."
Winnie had deleted Brian’s contact information. They contacted with Luke’s or Megan’s phone.
"Ok."
After sending the pictures to Luke, he still continued to look at them. There were eyes closed,
exaggerated modeling, and a mouth opened and hands raised, but Brian did not want to delete one of
them.
"Stop looking, you should pay the bill."
Winnie said impolitely, it was all right Brian paid for this meal.
"I've paid it. We can go home."
Brian finally put away her phone and got up to leave.
Out of the restaurant.
"My car is over there. I take the kids back."
Winnie reached for the children's hand and wanted to take them away.
But before that, but Brian held her hand.
"Get in my car and I'll take you home."
Brian's attitude was firm, and did not give Winnie the opportunity to oppose. He directly pulled Winnie
to go in the opposite direction, followed by the two children happily.
"I'll drive myself back. I have to go to work tomorrow morning and it's not convenient if I leave my car
here."
Winnie was pulled away by Brian, but she still resisted.
In front of the children, she was not used to being pulled by Brian.
Winnie’s words reminded Brian. He stopped but did not release Winnie's hand, but robbed Winnie's car
keys with the other hand.
"I take the key, and I ask Albert to send the car to you tomorrow morning."
After saying that, Brian continued to pull Winnie and walked to the car. Then he commanded.
"Luke, Megan, get in the car."
As he spoke, he opened the copilot's door and forced Winnie into it. After confirming that the rear door
was closed, he got into the car. The car drove quickly away from the restaurant.
The car ran smoothly on the way home.
Winnie looked back at the children, who were both playing with their attention away from her, and
whispered.
"You'd better not let Wendy see the pictures on your phone, or she will feel uncomfortable."
Winnie had to say that, or Wendy would be jealous.
"She won’t see that, no one can touch my phone without my permission."
Brian said with certainty. Wendy would not see the pictures in his mobile phone, and he would not
delete these pictures.
"I wish."
Winnie smiled faintly, and then remembered one thing.
"Have you been in the suburbs recently? Is your father all right?"
As soon as Winnie mentioned the suburbs, Brian knew what she wanted to say. If it were not Winnie's
birthday today, he would have skipped the topic coldly. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
In order not to let Winnie upset, Brian decided to answer.
"No, he should be fine."
"You still can’t get it over?”
Winnie said with euphemism, afraid the children would be worried.
"Well, after all these years, I need time."
Brian whispered, but Winnie was stunned by his words.
What did he mean? Was he about to start accepting it?
Did he realize that his hatred was a burden to all?
Was he ready to let go, ready to let go of resentment and live an easy life?
Winnie wasn't sure, but the words did give her hope.
"If you can, be quick, time is precious, and your father is old, don't waste time."
Winnie had to remind her, had to force Brian. Only the constant remind let him forgive his father faster,
and he could be earlier relaxed.
"Ok."
Not knowing how to go on, he could only said one word.
After he told Winnie about his mother that day, he felt more relaxed.
But he could not forgive his father for the time being.
If he forgave his father, it was to betray his mother. Would his mother blame him? Would she be sad?
To forgive his father was to put aside the hatred, and to forgive that woman and her family. It was
difficult for him.
The two children got tired of playing and had fallen asleep.
Brian parked the car in the parking lot of the community. Winnie was about to wake up the two children
but Brian stopped her.
"Don't wake up them now. You get out with me."
Brian got off the car directly, although Winnie was baffling, she got off the car too.
As Winnie got out of the car, Brian had walked to the co-pilot's side.
"What's up?”
Winnie asked with doubts. Brian was serious, she thought she said something wrong and Brian would
rebuke her.
"Nothing. I just want to give you a gift."
From the pants pocket, Brian took out a necklace. There was no gift box, so it was casually hanging on
his hand, beautiful, romantic.
Winnie had never thought that Brian would give her a gift. She had never thought that she would
receive a gift from a man in her life.
To tell the truth, she was very touched. To receive a gift from her beloved man was a kind of make up to
her heart. She should be content.
But why did he give her a gift?
"I..."
Winnie wanted to ask something, but stopped.
"Winwin, don't think too much, it is just a gift. I have known you for a long and I had been with you, I
owe you a gift."
"Besides, it is a special day and some words may hurt your heart, so this gift says it all for me."
"Take it as a souvenir."
Brian held the necklace in front of Winnie. He knew that Winnie thought much and that Winnie did not
want anything from him, but in any case he wanted Winnie to accept this gift.
Brian didn't have the chance to give that ring to Winnie, which was a lifelong regret. And he wanted to
make up for his regret with this necklace.
