Hello, Mr. Brent
Chapter 249

Franklin said calmly, "I know that you don't like her, but she alsodoesn't like you. The fact is just that she hasn't been here for a longtime, so she came over to take a look. You don't have to care about hermore because I'll take her around.”

Mrs. Brent was speechless.

She was stunned and looked at Franklin in disbelief.

After a long time, she muttered, "This is my home, this is Brent Family'sResidence. Does she think she could come and see at her thought?Who does she think she is?"

As Mrs. Brent spoke, the voice became much louder and she becamemore excited he became. It seemed that she was really furious.Franklin frowned. He knew what his mother was angry about. Theidentity of "Mrs. Brent" cost almost her whole life to earn. Living in thisold house and dying in this old house was her greatest wish in this life.But Emily said she was coming to visit. How could his mother not beanxious? Their mother-son relationship had always been not close. Shewas worried that he would indulge Emily and send her, Mrs. Brent, outof the old house.

"Mother, you don't have to worry. She's just here to have a visit. If youfeel uncomfortable, I'll let her walk by herself. I'll accompany you tohave a chat here.” Franklin said softly.

After all, she was his mother, who raised him up, and he wasn'tcompletely cruel.

Sure enough, his words made Mrs. Brent look much better.

As long as her son was still by her side, as long as her son still stood onher side, that woman Emily could not figure out anything.

"Okay, you really need to have a heart-to-heart chat with me! Wehaven't talked together for a long time.” Mrs. Brent said happily.Because she was happy, she softened her attitude towards Emily andcalled the housekeeper to show her around.

"Don't get lost again. If you are locked somewhere else, no one willsave you." Mrs. Brent taunted with a pun.

Emily sneered, knowing that Mrs. Brent was talking about the last timewhen she was locked up in the attic. She left with the housekeeperwithout bothering to argue with her.

As soon as she left, Mrs. Brent immediately ordered the servants tobring Franklin's favorite tea and a few snacks. She smiled and flatteredhim, "How about this snack? I remember that you liked it the mostwhen you were a child.”

Franklin picked it up, took a sip then put it down, and said, "lI am nolonger that little boy. Mother, everyone will grow up.”

Mrs. Brent was stunned, not knowing what he meant by that. Shefrowned and sighed, "You're right. People will grow up. You were soobedient when you were a child.”

"I remember you said something to me before.” Franklin said, "At thattime, you said that people are actually very strange. When children areyoung, children have to listen to their parents, but when they grow up,their parents have to come to rely on their children, and in turn, theyhave to listen to their children.”

"Yes, I did say that.” Mrs. Brent's expression was a little stiff, and hersmile was unnatural.

Franklin sighed again, “So do you have to rely on me now, mother?"Mrs. Brent was stunned and nodded quickly, "Of course, I have beenrelying on you for a long time. Not only me, but the whole BrentFamily."

"Since that's the case, why should you make things difficult for me andtell out the embarrassing past, mom?" Franklin said coldly.

Mrs. Brent shuddered, closed her eyes and sighed. He was warning her."It's my fault, I shouldn't have talked to Ivy about this. But I heard thatyou have been actively preparing for the wedding, and the weddingthat was originally postponed is planning to be held as scheduled. Areyou really going to marry Avery?" Mrs. Brent couldn't help but askcuriously after all

Franklin said, "Of course, the invitations have been sent out. How couldit be a joke?"

"But I see that you seldom see Avery, but stay with this Emily every day.Now you are making a big show of looking for the son for Emily. Isthere anyone who doesn't know about it in the whole Lancaster? Youdo this, will Avery still be willing to marry you?"

Franklin smiled faintly, "There's no need for you to worry about this,mom. I know what I'm doing."

Mrs. Brent sighed again. It was truly because her son knew himself toomuch, which made her feel uneasy.

Although she knew it well that it was useless to say, his mother stillcould not help but say, "You have grown up, you can do whatever youwant! But I heard that you are looking for Emily's son, you have to listento me on this matter. Don't do it publicly, or people will know andlaugh at you. I won't bother to nag at you about you keeping a womanby your side, but is it possible for our Brent Family to raise children forothers?"

"Mother, the missing child is son.” Franklin said in a low voice.

"What?" Mrs. Brent was surprised and couldn't help but widen her eyes.She had long known that Franklin was looking for the child all over theworld, but she had never thought about it or investigated it.

Because she felt that since Franklin cared about Emily, he must haveinvestigated Emily's family thoroughly as soon as Emily came back. Ifthere was a problem with that child, he would have investigated it andbrought the child to his side in advance.

But there was no information for so long that she naturally thought thatthe child had nothing to do with the Brent Family and would not havethought that the child would be Franklin's.

"She... How is that possible? Didn't she say she had symptoms ofinfertility? How could she give birth to your child?" Mrs. Brent said witha sullen face.

If that child really belonged to Brent Family, it meant that Emily hadbeen pregnant when she left Lancaster. Mrs. Brent couldn't help butshiver. She couldn't even imagine how angry Franklin was with her andwhy he hadn't dealt with her for so many days.

"Don't you know if she has an infertile or not, mom? That TCM doctor.Do you really think I know nothing?" Franklin said gloomily.

Mrs. Brent shuddered and her face became even paler.

"What? Did you know? Impossible, impossible. If you had known, howwould you have..." How could he have kept her until now?

"I know far more than what you had imagined, including that you paidoff the doctor to deceive Emily, including the fact that you deliberatelyframed Emily and forced her to leave Lancaster, and the fact that youschemed to try to replace me while I was in a coma. And even the factthat... I'm not your biological son.”

Mrs. Brent, “..."

Her face could no longer be described as pale but as miserable.

"The reason I didn't come to question you was just to give you achance. After all, you have the kindness of raising me, and in any case,at the most critical time, you still abandoned your own son to chooseme. But this is the only chance. If it happens again, I will not forgiveyou."

"Franklin, so... So you knew them all.” Emily suddenly kicked over aflowerpot and barged in, looking at Franklin with a gloomy face.
