Chapter 18 To be Warned


    Winnie was in a bad mood because of this blind date. She drove to the beach alone and went to the


    bench where she used to sit.


    The sea was still the same sea. When the wind blew, it caused wave.


    The bench was the same bench, and it was still brand new after the renovation.


    The sea sun was still big, but she was not the same as before.


    In the past, when parents were alive, her sister and she were the princesses who were spoiled.


    She used to do well in all subjects and was considered a versatile and beautiful girl by everyone.


    She used to think that Leo would be her only man, would be her life''s support.


    But a disaster changed everything for her.


    She became a fraud in the eyes of her boyfriend and a poverty-stricken woman in the eyes of the


    others with millions in debt.


    In order to pay off her debts, she had to choose surrogacy even if she was pround; in order to survive,


    she had to live in other cities.


    After experiencing so many hardships, she did not expect to be unstood by others, but she did not want


    to be scolded.


    Leoher, her first love, hurt her the most in the suffering moment. She hated him and wanted to call him


    a scumbag.


    But she put up with it, because it was meaningless.


    It was Monday in the next day, Winnie started work.


    As soon as she opened the office door, she saw someone she didn''t want to see.


    She heaved a sigh of exasperation and regretteding back.


    She saw all the people she did not want to see, and once again she was considered as a cheater who


    seduced men with beauty.


    "I don''t want to see you."


    Winnie showed her annoyance by tossing her bag aside.


    "I want to see you."


    Penny said in a fearless voice.


    "Are you sick? I have nothing now. What do you want to rob? Penny, how dirty you are? How bashful


    you are to show up in front of me?"


    Winnie instantlt became angry. She endured when she saw Leo yesterday, and now Penny came over


    to provoke her. Did they think she was easy to be bullied?


    "I don''t rob anything. Now I have everything, so don''t rob anything from you."


    Penny unexpectedly was calm but her contempt was clear.


    "Yes, you have everything. So you''re here to show off? Well, you’ve made it. You''re better now than I


    am, I admit it. I admit you have a strong background. Can you leave now?”


    Winnie of course thought she was good because she had been with the man who was only second to


    Brian in B City. She now had no energy to talk with Penny, she just wanted her to disappear as soon as


    possible.


    "Winnie, I am here to warn you. Don''t try to ruin my happiness. Don''t try to show off in front of me. Your


    parents are gone and no one is behind you now, no one will support you. And you will get the


    consequence.”


    Penny suddenly had a ferocious face, and her beautiful face had been twisted.


    She went on talking as if she had more than enough.


    "Winnie, I had to look up at you since we were in college. You are better than me in everything. You


    know how I felt? Now things have changed and I''m the one being looked up at by you. You have to feel


    what it''s like to look up at others."


    Penny abreacted emotion, as if she had been waiting this day for so many years, so that her


    depression could be released.


    Penny, can you speak conscientiously? When did I show off? When did I look down at you? I had a


    good performance in shool because I studied hard. I didn’t rob it from you, for what you ndered me


    like that?"


    Winnie was angry and puzzled. She did not expect Penny to think so and twisted the good things into


    bad things.


    During her years at university, she had done many things for Penny, but she only got betrayal.


    In such a tragic situation, Penny did not help her, but robbed her boyfriend, whick made Winnie upset


    and angry.


    "I didn’t speak conscientiously? Do you know what I went through? You ought to see what it is like to be


    under other people''s control."


    Penny raised her voice, and here eyes were full of resentment about the past.


    "It''s what you think, it''s becaue of your vanity, I never..."


    Winnie had never looked down on Penny, but Penny did not give her a chance to finish her words, and


    she would not believe it even if Winnie said it out.


    "Stop trying to be nice to me. I came here to warn you that you are no match for me. Don''t try to do


    anything to me. Or you''ll be worse off than you were four years ago."


    "I know you''re going to be here for a year. Give me a break during this year, and then leave."


    Penny said in a vicious way. From her arrogance, it could be seen that her status was high.


    "So you are afraid that I wille back and take revenge on you. You are afraid that I will take


    everything from you. Don''t worry, I don''t have your ambition, and don’t want topete with e you. But


    please don''t provoke me again. I will try to rob if you piss me off."


    Winnie came back with no hatred and she did not want to do anything to others.


    She now had a kid, aunt and sister, and it was the happiest thing as long as they lived together in


    peace and quiet. Such afortable life was a great deal of love for a person who had experienced


    great disasters.


    She wanted to live a peaceful life, but someone woulde and provoke her, and if she was really


    pissed off, she wouldn''t sit idle.

    "Try it if you dare."


    After ring at Winnie, Penny turned and left the office.


    Winnie was angry and felt annoyed to meet a bad person. And she had never known the hidden


    danger around her for years.


    At noon, Winnie had to go to the president''s office to report the main progress of these days, because


    Seth was on a business trip.


    "ra, is Mr. Be here? I am here to report work."


    Winnie asked ra, but she hoped Mr. Be was not here. Winnie didn''t want to stay alone with


    Brian.


    However......


    "President will be here at 1:00 PM. Now there are still five minutes to go. Please go in and wait."


    ra said expressionless.


    "No. I''ll wait outside. When hees and I''ll go in with him."


    Winnie did not want to be suspected. If there was no one in the president’s office, she won’t go in.


    "The president''s elevator goes into his office. He doesn''t go outside."


    "Miss Chambers, pleasee in."


    ra said with the same deadpan expression as she opened the door to the president''s office.


    WhenBrian was not in the office, no one could go into his office, including his assistant and secretary,


    but today, Brian told her to let Winnie wait for him in the office.


    That was why ra was deadpan.


    When Winnie walked into the office, the door was shut.


    Only then did she have a chance to take a closer look at Brian''s office.


    The office wasrge and the style was unique.


    To get to the office chair, she had to walk up two high ss wooden steps. The big solid wood desk


    was surrounded on three sides by bookshelves filled with books.


    The French Windows were decorated by the bookshelf. It seemed that this tough man was intellectual


    and liked reading.


    Winnie walked to a leather sofa and sat down, with a French window in the back and an elevator door


    in front. The elevator door integrated into the interior decoration style. If it had not been seen carefully,


    no one knew it was an elevator.
