Hello, Mr. Brent -
Chapter 248
Joyce and Sebastian left, but Emily didn't say goodbye to her. Instead,Emily asked Lisa to replace a modeling studio to perk Emily up daintily andthen begged Franklin to take herself to Brent Family's Residence.Franklin was in a good mood because she didn't make any moretrouble, but he was still shocked to hear that she wanted to go to BrentFamily's Residence.
"Why do you want to go there?" Franklin frowned
No matter four years ago or now, she probably didn't want to meetMrs. Brent! Brent Family's Residence was an extremely dangerous placefor her. He couldn't figure out why she would want to go there.
Emily answered, "Of course I go there for a visit. I haven't been there forfour years. I don't know what it is like now."
"Do you really care about the changes in Brent Family's Residence?"Franklin gazed at her and asked.
Emily pursed her lips because she felt nervous. Then she had to tell thetruth, "I just want to visit Mrs. Brent."
"Why?" Franklin asked.
Didn't she hate his mother the most in the past? Why did she suddenlywant to visit her?
Emily finally became impatient so she shouted angrily, "I just want tovisit your mother. Can't I? Won't you meet even this small wish ofmine?”
Franklin frowned and said, "It's not that I don't want to meet your wish.I just want to know what on earth you are going to do there."
"Oh, do you still suspect that I will harm your mother? If you don't takeme there with you, that's OK. Franklin, I want to break up with you.Bryce has been missing, so I'm afraid of nothing. Others’ lives havenothing to do with me. If I die, it's no big deal. Only if I die, you won'tthreaten me." Emily said angrily and left.
But as soon as she turned around, she was hugged by Franklin.Franklin sighed, "Come on, don't be mad at me. I'll take you there. I'mnot worried that you'll harm her. I'm worried about..."
"I'm worried about you!"
"Really? Seriously?" Emily was overjoyed so she immediately turnedaround to ask him.
Franklin smiled, nodded, and kissed her on the face.
Emily was so happy that she quickly perked herself up to go out withFranklin.
Because the trip was all a bit last-minute, Franklin didn't inform Mrs.Brent of this with a call and then took Emily there.
Unexpectedly, there were other guests in Brent Family's Residence. Ivywas there, so Mrs. Brent served her in the drawing-room.
Emily and Franklin walked to the drawing-room. When they reached thedoor, they heard Mrs. Brent triumphantly saying to Ivy, "Ivy, have youheard that the son of Emily, the bitch, is missing? Now he's missing.Hmph, it's really retribution. She seduced Franklin and alienatedFranklin and me. We are mother and son! Now her retribution is here.She will know the feeling of losing her son.”
Franklin frowned and was about to walk in angrily. But he didn't expectto be stopped by Emily. She shook her head at him with a calm faceand continued to listen to Mrs. Brent.
"Auntie, although I don't like Emily very much either. But this... is quitetragic. I heard that her son is only three years old. A three-year-oldchild, I can't imagine who took him away. It's a little pitiful to thinkabout it." Ivy, who had always treated Emily with disdain, actually saidthese words, which surprised Emily.
Mrs. Brent snorted and scolded, "Why are you so kind, you silly girl?Don't forget that. If it weren't for her, Franklin would have married you.""Auntie, stop it. I feel sad whenever you mention it. But even withoutEmily, Brother Franklin would have married Sister Avery. It would not beme." lvy sighed.
Franklin chuckled when he heard these words outside. He didn't expectthis girl to know it so clearly.
However, Mrs. Brent disagreed and continued, "Don't worry. Franklin ismy son. I understand him. He won't marry Avery. All that he did is justto deceive others. In fact, he and Avery..."
"Ahem, ahem.” Franklin quickly coughed twice and walked in with acold face.
Emily frowned. Mrs. Brent was talking about Franklin and Avery. In fact,she was also very curious about them. When Mrs. Brent would say it thenext second, Mrs. Brent was interrupted by Franklin. This was out ofEmily's expectation.
But as Mrs. Brent was interrupted, it was too late for her to stop himnow. She came in with Franklin with a sullen face. When she saw Mrs.Brent, hatred welled up in Emily's eyes.
Mrs. Brent and Ivy didn't expect Franklin to be here and they were evenmore surprised that Emily came with him.
When the two of them saw Franklin and Emily walking in, Mrs. Brentand Ivy looked very surprised.
Mrs. Brent and Ivy's firstly thought that why they were here.
The second thought was that wouldn't Franklin and Emily have heardwhat they just said?
Ivy's face turned red with embarrassment. She thought about what theyhad just said, and it seemed that they were not mean to them. Shesecretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It seemed that her brotherwas right. She could not say bad words about people behind theirbacks, or she would be punished sooner or later.
However, Mrs. Brent was not as relaxed as Ivy. She almost told Ivyabout Franklin and Avery's secret just now.
At this moment, she was very guilty to see Franklin, but as an elder, shedidn't want to be beneath her dignity. So she could only look at themwith a dark face and hide her guilt with an unhappy expression.Because she paid too much attention to Franklin, she did not noticeEmily, nor did she notice the hatred in Emily's eyes.
"lvy, you are here too. Where's your brother?" Franklin didn't blameMrs. Brent when he came in but asked Ivy.
Ivy said quickly, "My brother is busy. He was still nagging this morning.When you have time, he wants to ask you and Sister Avery out for tea.""It's a lie to ask me out. He wants to ask Avery out, doesn't he?"Franklin said with a light smile.
Ivy's face darkened. His expression made her confused that whether hewas deliberately teasing his brother or warning her.
But no matter what he meant, Avery was his fiancée. Her brother'sfrequent concerns about Franklin's wife were impolite.
When she thought of the current giant, the The Brent Group, Ivy quicklyexplained with a smile, "Brother Franklin, you must be kidding. Yougrew up with sister Avery and my brother, and my brother has alwaysregarded you two as his best friends.”
"You don't have to be nervous. I'm just joking." Franklin said calmly.
Ivy secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Just a joke. It was good
"Auntie, since Brother Franklin is here, I'll leave now. Brother Franklinwill talk to you for quite a while. I'll visit you next time." Ivy quickly saidto Mrs. Brent and grasped the opportunity to leave.
Mrs. Brent nodded with a stiff expression, complaining in her heart thatthe girl was not a good friend because the girl had left her here alone.But this was her own home, and Franklin was her son. Even if she saidsomething wrong, what could he do to her as her son?
After she said goodbye to Ivy, Mrs. Brent asked Franklin calmly,"Franklin, why did you suddenly come to me today with this woman?You always know that I don't want to see her. Why did you bring her tome?"
