Chapter 187 How is She
Chapter 187 How is She
The two children stood by without a word but with tears in their eyes. They felt sorry for the fact that
Mommy got a pale face and that she was lying there without any spirit.
They wanted to comfort Mommy, but they were afraid that they could not help crying loudly and
disturbing Mommy, so they could only stand and sob quietly.
"Stop crying, you kids. Mummy's all right. Mummy will be fine in the next morning after sleeping."
Winnie couldn't watch the children cry for fear they would worry about her. She could only force a smile
to comfort them.
Winnie's maternal love stimulated every nerve of Brian. Now she was in a bad state but pretended to
be strong for her children.
"Megan, Luke, mommy's okay. You need to stop crying. Mommy needs to rest now. Why don't you go
out and play?"
Brian told the two children and did not want them here to affect the mood of Winnie.
"Luke, Megan, I take you downstairs to play. You will disturb Mammy's rest here."
Rufus said, and then took the two children downstairs.
After the two children left, Winnie asked about Penny.
“How is she?”
Her voice was weak, but she wanted to know.
"You still care about her. I curse her to lie in the hospital and never get up."
Daenerys said angrily. She hated Penny.
If Brian had not there, Winnie would have died. And now she still cared about her, Daenerys would
inevitably nag.
"She can die, but the baby in her belly is innocent."
Winnie did worry about her. She wanted to know if she was ok.
Winnie was kind which made Brian speechless. He knew Winnie wanted to know the situation of
Penny.
So he made a call to Albert. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"How are things going?"
"Penny is still in a coma."
Albert was ordered to deal with the matter.
"Is there any danger?"
Brian asked in a cold voice.
"No. The surgery has been done, but the baby is gone. Her left calf got hurt and her face got bruises."
Albert told him the details.
Brian hung up the phone and then told Winnie the situation of Penny.
"I am sorry for the child."
Winnie was sad and she did not say a word.
Kevin feared Winnie would have nightmares at night, so before leaving, he prescribed some calm
medicine to her, so that she could have a sound sleep.
After Kevin and Daenerys left, Brian helped Winnie take the medicine. During the whole process,
Winnie did not say a word but still held Brian's hand.
Soon afterwards she fell into a deep sleep.
And Brian was lying beside her, holding her hand. But he was not sleepy at all.
Seeing Winnie sleeping soundly with a pale face, Brian hated himself.
All this was caused by his tardiness. It was he who made Winnie like this.
For months at his side, Winnie gained nothing, but was constantly surrounded by danger.
Today he had a sense of crisis and timely pulled Winnie. If he was a second late, Winnie would have
died and he would be painful just as he was when his mother died. He would live with the regret of
losing her forever.
Penny woke up in the next morning.
To her sorrow, there was nobody by her side.
The nurse came to tell her the situation. After learning that the baby was gone, she had no pain but
pity. It was a pity that it had been lost before it was put to good use.
She was in a daze lying in bed looking at the ceiling, in regret not killed Winnie.
At this time, Richard came in angrily and abused her loudly.
"Are you crazy? If you want to die, think of your own way, don't bring the family into trouble."
"Now because of you, the Burns Group is under attack by the Bennet Group, and soon it will be
defeated. At this time, you did not help the Burns Group but attacked Winnie, provoked Brian. You're
nuts, aren't you?"
"Didn’t I tell you to get out of here? Now police are keeping eyes on you and you can't leave."
Richard’s resentment could not be described with language. Looking at Penny's injury all over, thinking
of the crisis that the Burns Group faced, he could not calm down at all.
"Are you finished scolding? If you're not here to care about me, please leave. I said I have nothing to
do with the Burns Group, and nothing to do with you."
Penny shouted back, she was very sad at the moment, because she was scolded by her father. She
felt that her father's should ask how she was.
But her father did not concern about her. What was the use of having such a father?
"Shut up, do you think I want to have something to do with you? If I had known you had such a low IQ, I
would never have brought you back."
"Can't you see the truth, Penny? You are no match for Winnie. You are inferior to her in every respect.
You've been competing with her since you were at school, and you haven't done anything to her yet.
It's a matter of your ability. You can't deny it."
Richard was still roaring with anger. He was so disappointed with Penny's performance that it was
impossible to place any hope in her.
"I won't admit it, I won't give up. When I'm out of the hospital, I will still look for her. I don't believe I can’t
kill her."
Penny shouted angrily. Although it was pain on the face, she would never admit that she had lost to
Winnie.
"You don't give up? Do you think you still have a chance? The police have noticed you. They'll be here
soon. I'll see what you tell the police.”
"The other day I told you to leave, and when it's all over we can start over. Now you've blocked your
way, and you're going to jail."
Richard said angrily, turned around and walked away. He was at a loss for words about his daughter.
She was stubborn and obstinate.
"Get the hell out of here. The last one I want to see is the Burns family. I'm not dead yet. I won’t lose to
Winnie.
Penny broke down, shouting and throwing everything she could get. She even pulled the needle from
her wrist that was being injected with fluids.
She was angry, furious; she did not admit that she had lost to Winnie.
As long as she didn't die, she would have a chance. As long as she didn't die, she would not spare
Winnie.
After Richard walked away for a while, Penny's mood was calmed down. The nurse came in with the
police.
She was flustered for a moment at the sight of the police, but then she figured out what to do.
"Officer, you cannot frame me, that was an accident. I did not have the intention to kill her. If I did, how
could I have gotten myself into this situation? The baby's gone and I'm covered in wounds. I'm the
victim, okay?"
In any case, Penny refused to admit that she was intentional. If she had to take the blame, she would
say it was a traffic accident.
"Miss Burns, we don’t frame you. We are just here to get to know the basic situation. As for whether it
was a traffic accident or intentional homicide, we will know until further investigation."
The police said indifferently, feeling Penny was too alert. That made her more of a suspect.
After the police left, Penny fell into a deep thought.
If the police find out she killed on purpose, she would not get out of it. The child was gone, so the
amulet was gone. She felt frightened at the thought.
Before, she had Daniel and her father, but now she was alone.
After carefully thinking about what happened, she felt she was impulsive. If she did as what her father
said, she could have not come to such an end.
Winnie recovered from her fear and returned to work. She was different to Brian as before.
She was grateful that he had saved her, but she could not get close to him again. She would be
desperate to help him some day if he needed her, but now she could not disturb his coming marriage.
After a busy day, Winnie finally got off work. Instead of going straight home, she went to the hospital.
On the way to the hospital she received a call from Leo, so she asked Leo to go to the hospital
together.
They gathered at the gate of the hospital. Winnie put the matter to Leo simply.
"She hurt you on purpose and you came to see her? Winwin......"
Leo said angrily, trying to take Winnie away from the hospital. But Winnie refused.
"I want to talk to her."
Winnie said indifferently.
"Aren't you afraid she'll hurt you again?"
Leo did not understand what Winnie was thinking. Penny was too dangerous. If she made a move
again, Winnie could not always be so lucky.
"Yes, she's mad now. I am afrai, so I asked you to come with me. You can't watch me get hurt while
you're around.”
Winnie said jokingly, and then pulled Leo into the hospital.
Penny was alone in the ward, looking miserable.
"What are you doing here?”
Penny said with displeasure.
She didn't want to see them, because they reminded her of the past.
"I want to talk to you."
Winnie said indifferently with hatred in her eyes, but the hatred became less when she saw that Penny
was hurt all over.
"I have nothing to say to you. Once you leave Brian, everything between us will be over."
Penny only wanted Winnie to disappear.
Winnie sighed and showed her helplessness to Penny.
Penny brought all this to herself, or she would be happy.
