Chapter 692 Truth Tells
Chapter 692 Truth Tells
Stefan's words made Brian nervous. The word "explain" meant the truth and meant things were not
what they seem.
Did he really blame Winnie wrong, or Stefan and Winnie have tricks?
Stefan continued.
"We met by chance that day. It was raining heavily and she ran to the bus stop for shelter. I saw her.
After she got into the car, I found she was sad about your relationship with Gloria, so came out in the
middle of the night to relax."
"I was going to take her home and she asked for a drink so I went with her. After drinking too much she
was afraid of Vanessa’s worry and did not want to go home. I was asked to find a hotel and get her a
room, so I..."
Stefan recalled carefully what happened that day. He did not want to say a wrong word so as to show
the truth.
"Mr. Bennet, I know you had someone get the video. Now that you've had seem it, you should know it
wasn't only me and Miss Chambers in that room, my friend Caro is there too."
"This is my friend Caro. There were three of us in the room all the time."
Stefan stopped, he clearly saw the mood change in Brian's eyes, from disbelief at the beginning to
doubt, to shock now. From this change, he was sure that Brian did not know the truth, which meant he
didn't watch the whole video.
Brian was so shocked that he just stood there and didn't know what to say.
There were three people in the room, so nothing happened and he had misunderstood Winnie.
Caro thought Brian did not believe Stefan, seeing that he did not speak, so she explained.
"Mr. Bennet, I received a call from Stefan in advance that day. I had already got a room ready waiting
for them before they arrived at the hotel. Miss Chambers had been vomiting since she entered the
room. Stefan said he couldn't take care of her alone, so he didn't let me leave. Stefan and I took care of
her until after 3 am, when she fell asleep." Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"I'm sure there was nothing between them. I was there the whole time."
Hearing Caro’s explanation, Brian's heart was more suffering. If all this was true, he had made the
stupidest mistake. It was his impertinence and distrust that pushed Winnie away.
“Mr. Bennet, you don’t say anything, don’t you believe?”
Stefan thought Brian did not believe their explanation for he had been silent, when he was to explain
again, the secretary knocked on the door.
"Mr. Bennet, Director Chambers has arrived and the meeting can begin."
The secretary didn't know what was going on, only that it was time for the meeting and she had to
come and remind Brian.
"Send Director Chambers here."
Brian commanded in a cold voice and wanted to ask Winnie what was going on.
After the command, the office fell into silence, about two minutes later, Winnie knocked on the door and
came in.
Seeing Stefan and Caro were there, she was nervous.
"Why are you here?”
After asking Stefan, she looked at Brian with anger and confusion. Winnie did not know what was going
on, but Stefan must be related to her.
"We come..."
Stefan was to explain the reasons for coming here, but Winnie walked to Brian and asked Brian.
"You promised you would not make a hard time for him. Why did you call him here? Can you keep your
promise to me for once? Don't hurt the innocent. I said it was my fault and had nothing to do with
Stefan."
Winnie's intuition told her that Brian called Stefan here. He must acquire Stefan's hot pot restaurant, if
Stefan did not agree, he would think of ways to destroy Stefan.
And such a result was the last Winnie wanted to see, she did not want anyone to get involved because
of her.
"......"
Brian was silent, looking at Winnie with doubt and guilt.
While waiting for Winnie, Brian carefully recalled all the suspicious things that happened during this
period of time, and Winnie’s those words after getting drunk. All this was enough to prove him wrong.
He was wrong and stupid to hurt the woman he loved and made her suffer grievances.
"Winwin, it is not Mr. Bennet called us here, we came by ourselves. I can't pretend I didn't know why
you and he broke up, so I came to explain to him."
Stefan explained, but it irritated Winnie.
"There's nothing to explain. It's all over. Don't mention it any more."
Winnie quickly walked to Stefan, pulled Stefan with one hand and Caro with the other.
"Wait. They've explained what they need to explain, and it's too late to go."
Brian called Winnie.
"So, wait for what?"
Winnie turned and asked Brian. Since they had explained, she understood what was the doubt in the
eyes of Brian - he still did not believe.
"They said..."
"Do you think what they said is false?"
Brian just wanted to hear Winnie to tell him, but Winnie was angry, directly interrupted his words and
asked him in turn.
Brian was temporarily speechless and did not know how to answer Winnie.
She was unable to control her emotion. She was his favorite woman, but he did not even trust her.
"You don't know what to say, do you? Well, I'll answer for you. No matter what they said, you don't
believe it, and you call me in here to verify it. You're gonna think I was in cahoots with them. If you don't
believe in anything, is there any point in me waiting here?"
Winnie’s anger was mixed with disappointment. Brian already knew the truth, but he still did not admit
it, so there was no point for Stefan to explain.
"Let's go, don’t say another word."
Winnie pulled Stefan and was to go, but Stefan stood still.
"Winwin, now that I've come to explain, let me explain it clearly. No matter......"
"There's no point. Your explanation will only make me more embarrassed. He knows everything, he
knows we're not related, he just found an excuse to break up with me. Even if you hadn't given me a
room, he'd have found a man and said I cheated on him."
"Don't explain, Stefan. He trampled on my self-esteem."
Winnie’s eyes grew read, stubbornly begged Stefan. She knew Brian, understood Brian, if he could
hear explanation, she would not be silent till today.
"Winwin, I'm not making excuses."
Brian explained that he never wanted to abandon Winnie. Just at the critical moment, he made Winnie
misunderstood.
"Shut up, you shut up. If you've got what you want, don't play nice."
At this moment, Winnie did not need explanation, because Brian's thoughts clearly were written on his
face.
"Let's go."
Winnie took Stefan and Caro to leave and did not want to give Brian the chance to speak, did not want
to listen to his excuse.
Brian got up and chased her out. Before she could get out of the office, Calvin opened the door and
came in, carrying a paper bag in his hand.
"Mr. Bennet, someone named Caro asked me to give this to you. She said that Wendy gave her hush
money and asked you to return to Wendy."
Calvin's words stop Brian's footstep. He looked at the paper bag with a frown and realized that this
matter was not so simple.
Brian took the paper bag and took a look at it. It was 100, 000 in cash.
"You two go and find out what happened. How could Wendy get involved?"
Brian issued the command in an angry voice, but Calvin and Albert stood there and did not do as he
said.
"What are you hesitating about?”
Once again, Brian realized that something was wrong. He was the only one who didn't know the truth?
"Mr. Bennet, what Stefan just said is true. You really misunderstood Director Chambers. There is
nothing between them."
"......"
At this time, Albert had to put everything out, including Wendy deliberately made this
misunderstanding, deliberately tracked Winnie, concealed the truth and gave Caro the hush money.
"You...... why didn't you tell me since you have known it?"
Brian shouted angrily and he felt more guilty as he knew the truth.
He was wrong. He was so wrong. He believed Wendy but misunderstood Winnie, which led to their
breakup and this painful situation.
"It's not that we did not tell you, it's that Director Chambers did not want us to tell you. She thinks you're
making excuses to break up with her, so it doesn't matter we tell you or not."
"She thinks? She thought that in a fit of anger. Don't you know what I think? Don't you know how I've
suffered these last few months? If I don't love her, how could I be so miserable?"
Brian roared angrily and did not understand his most trusted two people hid the truth for Winnie. If they
had spoken out sooner, he would have apologized sooner and made it up. It would be less painful for
both of them.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bennet. Director Chambers asked us not to say anything. We couldn't refuse. She said
there are too many obstacles between you, but if you don't break up now, you will. It might as well have
been easier to separate earlier."
"We can't guarantee that Director Chambers will be happy in the future, so we didn't say so."
Calvin said an important reason and because of it, they decided to help her hide.
Let alone they dare not guarantee Winnie would be happy, even Brian did not dare to promise,
because his heart was not certain.
Brian was once again silenced by reality. He finally understood why Winnie would rather carry the
blame for carrying unwarranted guilt than explain the reason.
Even though she thought everything was his plan, she did not expose. She did not want to continue
suffering in pain and wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him.
