Chapter 887 I'll give you a baby and you give me money
Winnie's mood was affected by this incident, and she didn't even get better until Brian picked them up to go home. On the way home, the two children kept talking about the funny things that happened today, so Brian didn't have the chance to talk to Winnie.
After returning home, Winnie used tiredness as an excuse to go straight to her room, she was now very anxious, nervous and confused.
This house had to be bought back, while it was still unaltered and still had her memories in it. She had to buy it back while those things of theirs weren't thrown out, like her Mom and Dad were still there. But money became her biggest problem.
Should she use Finn's money? If she did not use it, she had to ask Leo and her company for it. If she were to use it, she would owe Finn a huge favor, and she didn't know when she could return the money. She's had enough of that pain of being overwhelmed by debt and genuinely didn't want to be living in debt.
Brian pushed the door in. Seeing Winnie lying on the bed with a depressed face, he worried about her. At Finn that already knew that she didn't take the money, he knew that Winnie was still having trouble with the money.
"I didn't have a good dinner, so come out with me for a late night snack."
Brian wasn't inviting, but giving orders.
Without waiting for Winnie to react, he directly reached out and pulled up Winnie who was lying on the bed.
"I'm tired, go on your own."
Winnie was already on her feet before she had a chance to refuse.
"It's no fun eating on my own, you're with me."
Brian didn't give Winnie a chance to object and directly pulled her away.
Brian drove to the barbecue restaurant that Winnie often came to.
Winnie was fond of sitting on the roadside, eating and drinking while admiring the scenery of the road. Today was no exception, and Brian accompanied her as she sat by the roadside. "You're a regular customer here, so you order."
Brian handed the menu to Winnie.
Up until now he hadn't asked anything, nor had he said a word of concern.
No amount of words of concern would help until things were sorted out.
Winnie ordered what she loved and she knew what Brian liked to eat.
After ordering and putting the menu down, as the waiter was just about to leave, Brian called out to him.
"Don't forget to give me beer."
"Okay."
Winnie opened her mouth at this moment.
"You drive, why order beer."
Winnie then remembered that she could drive too, so she added.
"It's okay, I can drive."
"You drink too, I'll call a driver later."
He brought Winnie to drink, so she could be relaxed. There would be no point in her coming out if she didn't drink.
Winnie did not refuse, at this moment, she really wanted to drink.
The various foods were soon served and beers were poured for both of them.
"Have a sip first, it's rare for the two of us to sit down and drink in peace like this."
Brian raised his glass to Winnie.
"Okay, take a sip."
Winnie cooperated. The two men clinked glasses and drank for the first time in a friendly manner.
The two made small talk centered on the children for a while, and Brian couldn't help but start on what he was worried about.
"Winwin, you've been in a bad mood for the past two days, is it still about the money?"
"Ah...... it's okay, I can figure it out."
Like she was ready, Winnie waited for Brian to ask her this question.
"Winwin, I have money, I can help you with, don't worry."
"I know you have self-esteem, and I know the reason you don't use a penny of my money. But I ......'
Brian tried to talk to Winnie about it, but Winnie's attitude was always the same.
"
"Don't talk about it anymore, I know you have money. Tell you what, if I can't get the money, I'll use your money."
"Winwin, I don't want to put you in a difficult position. You don't have to be in such a bad mood if you decide to use my money."
Brian knew that Winnie was perfunctory to him, and she just stuck to her idea of not using his money.
"You called me out for a drink just to talk about this, Brian? If so, I won't drink."
Winnie spoke with a resolute attitude and directly put down her glass.
"Ok, we don't talk about it, let's drink."
Brian had to stop the conversation. He knew that no one could control Winnie once she became obstinate.
With that, this topic was over, and Brian's purpose was not achieved.
The two men were still harmonious when they didn't mention feelings or money, and neither of them argued until they were slightly drunk.
Because the weather was nice and breeze was very cool, because the temperature was very comfortable, because she was in a better mood, so Winnie proposed to walk home. The two walked side by side under the dim streetlights, on the flat sidewalk, leaving both of them unconsciously lost in their emotions.
"Brian, if we had met in a different way, do you think we would have ended up differently."
Standing under the streetlight, she tilted her head and looked at the light even if it was dim. Winnie suddenly wanted to talk about their relationship in a different way.
Yet drunk and talking nonsense, she didn't dare to have any expectations.
Winnie was waiting for Brian's reply, and she didn't expect him to be standing under the streetlight as well.
"Hello, lady, my name is Brian. Can we get to know each other, and can I have your number?"
Brian was drunk, but cooperated.
If Winnie wanted to meet in another way, then he would give her another way.
Winnie was stunned, looking at Brian's serious face, she was in a trance for a moment. If time were to start over, if they were to get reacquainted, what would her choice be? "No, and I don't have a number."
Winnie gave a response because she figured out that the ending wouldn't change no matter how they met in that way.
"I'll hold on to that till I get your number."
No matter which encounter he had, Brian would not give up, he had to get a perfect ending.
"Cut...... the hell out of it."
Winnie would not believe it.
But if time could really start over, Winnie must have avoided Brian from afar, must not meet him, must not fall in love with him.
Winnie continued to walk forward. The difficulty did not disappear because she had drunk too much. Money and feelings were two contradictory individuals, but she couldn't conquer either one. "Brian, I have a question."
"What?"
Brian caught up with Winnie, who also stopped to face Brian.
"Do you still need a woman to give you children? If you need me to give birth to a child, you pay me."
Winnie thought she was crazy to ask such a question, but it couldn't be denied that it was the only way to get money and keep her from being burdened.
"Winwin......"
This question Winnie proposed immediately stung Brian's heart, and it was such a sting that made him realize that Winnie's so-called fresh start was surrogacy.
It seemed that her mental block was not just his grandfather, nor was it just the misunderstanding they had, but also the surrogacy.
"Oh, I forgot I can't have any more babies. Forget it, I will figure out another way."
Winnie realized that she no longer could carry babies, so the path of trying to earn money from surrogacy was not going to work. "Winnie, you can have babies. Give me two more children."
Brian gave this answer. Because this was the only way to help Winnie with her pressing needs, and to make Winnie accept his money.
"I can't, are you being sarcastic?"
Whether or not Brian was being sarcastic, she felt like a joke in her own right.
"How come you can't have a baby, it is still possible. I'll take you to have a check ......'

"No, we had many sex, and we did not use birth control? Have I ever got pregnant? Do you still believe I can have a baby in a situation like this?"
Winnie didn't believe she could have a baby, and didn't believe that Brian was still willing to have a baby with her.
"Let's move past this topic, you're willing to lend me money unconditionally anyway, and when the time comes, I will come to you for help."
Winnie continued walking towards the front, throwing away the thoughts she had just had and starting to look for other effective yet quick ways.
Brian followed behind Winnie, realizing another problem. As long as he wasn't lending her money, as long as she did not have a burden on her mind, as long as she felt that she wasn't getting something for nothing, she would be able to use the money with peace of mind.
"Winwin, wait."
Brian took two quick steps to catch up with Winnie.
"I have an opportunity to make money, and I am wondering if you want to try it?"
Brian asked Winnie in a serious manner.
"Yes, I want to make money whenever I can."
Winnie answered without hesitation, although she didn't know what Brian was talking about in terms of money making opportunities, in her opinion, it was better than surrogacy.
"Two days ago, it was announced that a foreign country had successfully developed a software that imitates human face and voice, and this software can successfully steal personal information. So our company is ready to develop a corresponding software to be implanted among mobile phones. It is able to accurately identify this software so that users do not suffer losses."
"If this software is developed successfully, it will not only have patented technology but also make the phone a big seller. If you are interested, we can cooperate."
Brian said what he thought, this was not something he made up, but something that existed in fact and had to be dealt with. It was just that they had been in the middle of a seminar and hadn't started the project.
"Yeah, I am interested in."
Again, the answer was given without a second thought.
If this offer had been made at a time when she didn't need the money, she would not have agreed to it because never again did she want to be involved with the Bennet Group.
But at this moment she had no choice. As for whether the road was full of thorns, at least it would let her survive and solve the problem.
"Well then, since you agreed to cooperate, we'll go to the company tomorrow to talk about the details."
"Go home, the children must be looking for us."
Brian's heart steadied. No matter what method he used, he would help Winnie get through difficulty first.000000
