Hello, Mr. Brent
Chapter 214

Emily was stunned and turned to look behind.

"Emily, it's really you!" Abigail said in disbelief and strode towards Emilyquickly.

Emily stood up and looked at Abigail in disbelief.

"Mom."

"Emily, where have you been all these years? Mom misses you somuch.” Abigail hugged Emily and cried with her head on Emily'sshoulder.

Bryce looked over and saw a stranger holding her mother. Heimmediately stood up and ran over, pushing Abigail hard, "Don't bullymy mother. This is my mother. You're not allowed to hug her.”

Abigail had no choice but to let go of Emily. She was stunned to see thelittle man below, then she showed a shocked expression.

"Emily, this is..."

"Mom, this is my son, Bryce. His nickname is Bryce." Emily immediatelypicked up her son and said to Abigail.

Then she explained to Bryce, "Bryce, be good. This is not a bad man.She doesn't want to bully mom. She's mom's mother. She is yourgrandmother.”

"Grandma?" Bryce tilted his little head and stared at Abigail as if he wasthinking about his mother's words seriously.

Emily nodded and said, "Yes, grandma. Haven't you always envied Lucyfor having grandma? You also have grandma. This is your grandma.Quick, call grandma.”

"Hello, grandma.” When Bryce heard that Abigail was not a bad person,he immediately smiled obediently.

However, when Abigail saw him, her expression became even morestrange. She nodded awkwardly, unable to squeeze out a smile.Sensing her mother's abnormality, Emily gave Bryce to James andintroduced James to her mother.

Naturally, James was very respectful to Abigail and called out, "Mom."Abigail said in surprise, "You're married again?”

After that, she looked at Emily awkwardly. Emily had a child and shemust be married again. Could it be that this child belonged to Franklin?"It's okay. He knows everything.” Emily smiled and explained to hermother.

Only then did Abigail breathe a sigh of relief, but after looking at Bryceagain, her expression changed again. She quickly looked away and said,"Emily, I want to talk to you."

"Well, I happen to have a lot to tell you," Emily said immediately.

“Let's go out and talk! Find a place.” Abigail suggested.

Emily thought about it. Joyce's house was not very big, so it was notconvenient to talk here. So She told James and Joyce and left with hermother.

There was a coffee shop opposite Joyce's house. Emily and Abigailwalked in and found a secluded seat by the window and they sat down.Abigail looked at Emily from head to toe and smiled comfortingly,"You've changed and become more beautiful in the past few years."Emily smiled and said, "So is mom. You are younger and prettier thanbefore.”

Abigail touched her face and said with an awkward smile, “I'm old. Agedoesn't change. No matter how much makeup I use, I can't change thefact.”

"How have you been all these years? I'm sorry. I left in such a hurry thatI didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to you back then.” Emilysaid guiltily.

Abigail shook her head and said, "There's no need to apologize. Momcan understand. Didn't you still ask someone to send me the money?Thanks to your money, I am able to survive these years."

"What? Is Hunter not good to you?" Emily asked in surprise.

Abigail's expression changed and she said shyly, "There's no need totalk about whether he treats me good or not. He's younger than me. Ayoung man of this age... is still willing to live with me. Giving this, he hasa conscience."

"Mom, you don't have to stoop to compromise. Is it for the child?"Emily suddenly understood, angry and heartbroken.

Abigail smiled bitterly and said, "There's no child. That child wasmiscarried when it was five months old. He was not too sad and itlooked like that he didn't look forward to having that child too.”"Mom." Emily's heart ached even more when she heard that her motherhad miscarried and that the child had not been born. She could nothelp but hold her mother's hand.

Abigail said, "It's been four years, and I haven't been sad for a longtime. In fact, it's good that I don't have a child. If I have another child atthis age, I might not be able to see the child grow up in the future. All Ido is having another child hurt."

"Mom, I've never blamed you. But since you two don't have a child andHunter treats you like this, why do you still live with him? Why don'tyou leave him? I'll go back to Dover soon. Why don't you come withus?" Emily suggested.

"No, no, no. I can't leave. I can't." Abigail shook her head immediately."Mom."

"Emily, I know you're good for me. You'll take good care of me when Igo there. But firstly, mom doesn't want to implicate you. You live agood life. Why should I bother you? And secondly, I can't leave Hunter.Even if he treats me like this, I still can't leave him. I can't do anythingabout this. Maybe this is my bad luck! Besides, he still goes back homeand he is still willing to maintain this marriage with me. So that's it!"Emily frowned. She really didn't expect her mother to stoop tocompromise to this extent. It really made her sad and angry.

"Emily, your child doesn't look... like you or your husband!" Abigailasked carefully.

Emily was shocked, thinking that her mother saw through the truth.But Bryce didn't look much like Franklin. Otherwise, everyone elsewould have seen through the truth. In fact, she also wondered why thechild didn't look like them. And she didn't know who he looked like, buthe was very good-looking no matter what.

"Hehe. Is that true? Maybe the child has a combination of all ouradvantages, so he does not look like us!" Emily smiled awkwardly.Abigail frowned and looked worried.

Emily asked in surprise, "What's wrong, mom? Do you have somethingon your mind?"

Abigail shook her head and said, "No, no. It's just that this child... Helooks good. But... anyway. You shall remember that you shall not let himparticipate in any talent show or be a child star. Many parents like to dothis now, making their child a child star. On the surface, they have agood life. But in fact, it's not that good as it looks like."

"I know. I'm not going to make him a star. Don't worry about that!"Emily said immediately.

She couldn't figure out why her mother thought of these things.Although her son was good-looking, she had never thought of thesethings. In her eyes, Bryce was just an ordinary child and would live anordinary life in the future.

"That's good.” Abigail breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, how did you know that I had come back. Did Hunter toldyou about my return?" Emily asked immediately.

Abigail nodded and said awkwardly, "He told me that you might begoing to leave, so he asked me to have a meet with you. Emily, are youreally going to leave? I mean... Can you stay? We can accompany eachother and take care of everything together in the future. That's whatHunter meant. He wants you to stay too."
