Hey, My Twins Babies novel Chapter 97

Leo glowered at Penny. He couldn't restrain his anger when he saw her resentful and sinister glare and thought of Winnie's being bedraggled.

"Penny, if you're being rude to Winwin again, I'll publicize the bad things you've done."

Soon after Leo finished his words in a cold voice, he heard someone whisper.

"Who is this man?"

The reason why Daenerys didn't leave with Winnie was that she was waiting for this chance. Since Penny had embarrassed Winnie, she would publicize what Penny had done.

"He is Winwin's ex-boyfriend. They had to break up because of Penny."

After hearing this, there was a commotion all over the banquet hall. Who on earth was the other woman? At this moment, everyone was puzzled.

"Daenerys, shut up. Who do you think you are? Be careful that I'll make it impossible for you to get by in B City."

Penny warned her loudly in anger, but she dared not refute what Leo said because she was afraid that Leo would reveal the fact on the spot.

However, what Daenerys said also made her lose face.

"Who do I think I am? I'm the person who reveals the truth like you did years ago!"

Among all the people present, only Penny and Leo knew what Daenerys meant. Hearing this, Penny's face was dark for a while and then was white for a while, changing quickly.

Having achieved her goal, Daenerys turned around and left. Then, Leo also left after glancing at Penny angrily. Only Penny still stood there, feeling embarrassed.

At this moment, their classmates began to talk about what they had just seen.

"The man who came later looks familiar."

"I think so."

"Leo, the President of the Johnson Group. I saw him on the Internet yesterday."

"Gosh! Winnie is so lucky. The two most powerful men in B City all came to protect her. She's luckier than people who win the lottery."

One of the women exclaimed. Another woman also said in a louder voice.

"Of course. People won't get too much money if they win the lottery. However, I can't imagine what great fortunes these two men have possessed."

"Didn't Penny say that one of them is her husband? Her husband left with Winnie in his arms? Whose husband is he? Who is the queen?"

……

More and more people joined the discussion, hurting Penny's pride. Being unable to bear such humiliation anymore, Penny left in embarrassment.

After Brian and Winnie had just left the hotel, Brian reproached Winnie angrily before Winnie realized what had happened.

"I had told you not to come to the reunion, but you didn't listen to me and come here. Did you feel happy when Penny humiliated you? Look at yourself. Aren't you fierce? When you quarrel with me, you act as if you will kill me. What's wrong with you today? Why didn't you refute..."

Before Brian could finish his words, Winnie hugged him suddenly, astonishing him.

"I felt sad, but I felt better when you appeared. Although you're scolding me so loudly, I still feel happy for the first time."

Feeling both aggrieved and happy, Winnie said these words. She smiled, but tears streamed down her face at the same time.

Although she was insulted today, she got something valuable. Although Brian didn't say much, he stood with her. That was enough.

"Thank you. Thank you for protecting me. Now, I finally understand that there'll naturally be a man to protect her if a woman is weak."

On the contrary, if a woman is too strong, there would not be any man who would like to protect her.

Although she didn't know why Brian protected her, she was grateful that she didn't lose face in front of her classmates.

Having been protected by him once in her life, she had been satisfied.

“……”

Hearing her expressing thanks to him, Brian was speechless.

Why would he protect her? It was Penny, the woman inside that was his wife. Why was he afraid that she would be bullied? It was the woman who was abroad that was his beloved woman.

What did Winnie, whom he was protecting, mean to him? Merely a temporary lover?

Brian said nothing, but he held Winnie into his arms tightly.

Leo and Daenerys happened to see it when they came out of the hotel. Leo was jealous while Daenerys was happy.

At that time, Daenerys didn't foresee such an outcome. She just hated to see Penny being arrogant and wanted to ask Brian to come to make her less arrogant. It never occurred to her that he would really come.

But...

"Leo, why do you come here?"

Daenerys asked in doubt. She didn't send a message to Leo.

Leo no longer looked at Brian and Winnie, but he couldn't calm himself down.

"I sent a client to this hotel. When I passed by, I saw you two."

Leo said without any expression.

He happened to pass by, but found that there was a quarrel inside. When he wanted to go in to protect Winnie, Brian stopped him.

Leo felt very uncomfortable. It was a torture for him to just stand there and watch his beloved woman to be wronged and humiliated.

"Come on, I'll send you home."

Leo couldn't go to disturb Winnie because he was too ashamed and annoyed. He had to bear some responsibility for Penny's daring to treat Winnie so wantonly.

When Leo and Daenerys just got on the car and left, Penny came out with a dark face. She also saw that Brian and Winnie was hugging each other.

Seeing this, Penny hated Winnie more. She swore that she would take revenge and that she would ruin her life.

Penny was in a bad mood and couldn't calm her resentment down, so she went to a bar have a drink to vent.

In the bar, she sat down in a remote corner. After the waiter served her wine, she began to drink one glass after another. After an occasional glance, she found that a man, who was not far from her, was looking at her.

She looked away in disgust. However, feeling that that man looked familiar, she couldn't help looking at him.

After she thought carefully about where she had seen this man, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen him in the Bennet Group. At that time, Brian asked about this man deliberately.

He seemed to be from the headquarters of MT but was driven away later.

Thinking of this, Penny came close to that man with a glass of wine in her hand.

"Sir, would you mind my sitting here?"

Penny said gently.

"Of course, who will say no to a beautiful woman like you?"

Daniel said gallantly. He also looked at her because she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.

Penny sat next to him and introduced herself openly.

"My name is Penny Burns, the wife of Brian. You've once worked in the Bennet Group, right?"

Hearing her self-introduction, Daniel suddenly remembered that he had met her in a lift, but he was surprised to hear that she was Brian's wife.

"Oh, hello, Mrs. Bennet. Nice to meet you. My name is Daniel Wong."

Daniel reached out his hand politely. Then, Penny shook hands with him.

"You're right. I used to work in the Bennet Group, but then I quit."

Speaking of this, Daniel suddenly remembered something about Winnie.

He hadn't worked in the Bennet Group for many days, but he had heard a lot of gossip.

He wondered whether Penny knew it or not.

"Why did you resign? Were you not satisfied with the remuneration and welfare offered by the Bennet Group?"

Penny asked with a hidden purpose. The reason why she asked this question was that she remembered that Albert had said that this Mr. Wong didn't get along well with Winnie.

"Alas, I hope that you won't think too much if I tell you."

"Winnie should bear some responsibility for my leaving the Bennet Group..."

Daniel told her the reason of leaving the Bennet Group in general, but he told some lies during the narration to make him sound innocent.

"I'm divorced and have no child. And I've been with Winnie. We got along well. However, Mr. Bennet saw us quarrelling on the roof deck. He said that I bullied was bullying Winnie and then beaten me up in person."

Speaking of this, Daniel sighed with grievance as if he were the victim of this incident. He looked up at Penny and found that she had put on a dark face and that there was irrepressible anger in her eyes.

Then he continued to add highly colored details to the story.

"I thought that it would be over after I was beaten. It never occurred to me that Mr. Bennet would be so protective of Winnie. He not only fired me, but also made it impossible for me to work in my former company. In addition, not a single company employed me after I sent resumes to several companies."

Daniel said while sighing and pretended to be poor. Then he drank a glass of wine bitterly.

"Are you saying that Brian is protective of Winnie?"

Penny pretended that she didn't know anything and went on asking.

But she indeed knew nothing about what Daniel just told her. It never occurred to her that Brian would fight with someone for Winnie.

"Alas, there're something that I don't t know if I should tell you. Although I didn't work in the Bennet Group for a long time, I had heard rumors. Otherwise, how was it possible that I quarreled with Winnie? I..."

Daniel acted as if he were biting back some words.

"It doesn't matter. Just tell me."

"Mr. Bennet is really protective of Winnie. Besides, I heard that Mr. Bennet has lived with Winnie for a long time."

With her permission, Daniel didn't hesitate and told her directly.

"Winnie is the other woman? Do you have any evidence to prove their relationship?"

Penny went on asking.

"No. If I had any evidence, I would have managed to let Winnie be my girlfriend long ago."

Daniel was annoyed because he was beaten, failed to find a job and couldn't have Winnie as his girlfriend. Because of these things, he became very angry.

Daring not vent his anger on Brian, he wanted to vent it on Winnie.

However, after following Winnie for some days, he found that Winnie was always with Brian. And Brian cared much about Winnie. If he really harmed Winnie, he might lose his life.

However, if he could use Penny and let her support him, it would be a different story.

Daniel thought so. Coincidentally, Penny also wanted to use him.

"It seems that you like Winnie very much?"

"Of course. If it wasn't for her, I would not come to work in B City. Now, I lose everything because of her. If I didn't like her, how is it possible that I'll accept these? If I didn't like her, I would already have left B City."

Daniel told Penny that he liked Winnie openly.

He liked Winnie, but he didn't fall in love with her. He was just under the control of a certain desire when he thought of her. Winnie was the most beautiful and sexiest woman he had ever seen. He had sworn that he must have her as his lover the moment he saw her for the first time.

However, Winnie didn't give him any chance these years.
