Hello, Mr. Brent -
Chapter 261
"Of course not. I'm just a low configuration phone without suchadvanced functionality.” Emily curled her lips.
"Then why?"
"Because I forwarded it to my email before you deleted it, so even ifyou did so, I still have a copy.” Emily finally said the reason.
Franklin suddenly realized. Why didn't he expect this?
He thought that it was because there was a function of the phone thatcould recover the deleted video.
"If you are mad, then just be that! Anyway, it's already like this. I don'tregret it." Emily said with her back straightened.
Franklin chuckled and said faintly, "You also said that it's already likethis. In that case, there's no use for me to be angry. Don't worry, I won'tbe angry with you. You're right. She owes you. Now you plot againsther once, and you two are even. Thank you for the soup. Who else doyou want to retaliate against next? Tell me first, so that I can bementally prepared.”
"Are you really not angry?" Emily looked at him in disbelief.
Franklin said faintly as he drank the tonic soup she had sent him,"Actually, I've always wanted to deal with that man of hers, but she'salways been protective of him, so I can't be tough on him. Your actioncan be considered as blocking all his way out. If she doesn't break upwith that man now, she would go way too far. So to some extent, I needto thank you.”
Emily didn't expect Franklin to say that, but she also thought of whatLisa said, which had an impact on the stock of The Brent Group andpeople of the The Brent Group forced Mrs. Brent to leave.
Then she asked Franklin, "What about your company? I heard it has animpact on the stock. What about Mrs. Brent? I heard that the BrentFamily forced you to send her abroad.”
"Lisa has told you what would happen if she went abroad!" Franklinsaid.
Emily nodded.
Franklin sighed and went, "If it's not the last resort, I won't take thisstep either. She has worked hard for half her life as Mrs. Brent and puteverything she has into it. She even didn't hesitate to abandon her ownson and raise me as a substitute. If she left Brent Family's Residence, allher hard work would be in vain. But what could she do? She had noface to stay in Lancaster after such a thing happened. She could notstay at home for the rest of her life. People of the Brent Family areforcing her to do this again, and she won't be able to appear in all kindsof activities of the Brent Family in the future, so it's better to send heraway and live a quiet life abroad.”
"But once she leaves, it means..."
"She still has me as her son, and she won't be able to make ends meetin living expenses. Constance is going to graduate in two years, so shecan go and accompany her." Franklin said faintly.
"Constance?" Emily frowned.
Franklin said, "You don't know yet! I have a sister. She's only twentyyears old this year and her name is Constance. Our father sent herabroad to study when she was sixteen.”
"So Mrs. Brent..."
"She gave birth to Constance.”
Emily's face turned pale and she felt a little regretful.
If Miss Constance knew about her mother's affairs, she would beextremely sad. Emily never knew that Mrs. Brent even had a daughter."You don't have to regret it either. She owes you this and should payyou back.” Franklin actually saw what she was thinking and comfortedher.
Emily's nose ached and she felt inexplicably sad.
"Why aren't you angry with me? Why aren't you angry?" She muttered.Franklin looked at her and put down the bowl of soup in his hand.After walking to Emily's side, he reached out and hugged her in hisarms, "I owe you this too. I won't be angry with you again in the future.I'll take good care of you in the future.”
"Franklin, I will misunderstand if you are so nice.” Emily leaned againstFranklin's broad chest and finally couldn't help but cry.
Franklin chuckled and said, "Then just go ahead. I'm just so nice toyou."
"But..."
Emily wanted to ask, but what about Avery? They were getting marriedsoon.
But she couldn't ask, at least not now. At this moment, she was justsentimentally attached to his warmth and just wanted to stop at thismoment.
Mrs. Brent sat on the sofa with a pale face. When someone came in, shewas immediately stunned and quickly stood up to look at the door.When she saw the butler coming, Mrs. Brent sat down dejectedly again.Her eyes turned red again and tears flowed uncontrollably.
It had been two days, and although there had been a gag order on theInternet during the past two days, public opinion was stilloverwhelming. The market value of The Brent Group's stock also fellagain and again. Those people who had respected her at the BrentFamily all changed their attitudes. Although they didn't come to herdirectly, she knew that they all went to Franklin and forced him to sendher away.
"Madam, you should go and rest!" The butler couldn't stand herdecadent look and couldn't help but persuade her.
Mrs. Brent choked and said, "I'm not in the mood to rest. I don't knowwhat decision Franklin has made. Will he... Will he send me abroad?"The butler was also solemn, and it was hard for him to say.
The more Mrs. Brent said, the sadder and angrier she became. But justthen, the man who had an improper relationship with her came.
The maid said anxiously, "Madam, I'm sorry, I can't stop him."
As soon as Mrs. Brent saw him, she was furious. She stood up andstrode to him, raising her hand and slapping him in the face.
"You're shameless to still come to me. Where have you been hiding forthe past two days? You bastard, I was really blind to fall in love withyou." Mrs. Brent cursed. Who would have thought that Mrs. Brent, whohad always been elegant, would scold someone like a shrew?
The man was stunned by the slap. When he came to his senses, he kneltdown in front of Mrs. Brent and cried, "I'm sorry, I don't know! I didn'tknow something like this happened. I went for fun where it wasenclosed. I just came out today. I knew the news as soon as I came out,so I come to see you immediately.”
Mrs. Brent was even angrier when she heard that. What he said wasnothing more than gambling. All the money she had worked so hard toget was lost by this bastard. He came to her as soon as he lost, butwhen she was in trouble, she couldn't count on him at all.
"Get out of here. Get out now. I don't want to see you for the rest of mylife.”
"No, baby, I can't get out. I wanted to take my money back, and I didmake a lot at first. But then... I couldn't help it. I just wanted to makemore money so that I could take you away and give you a happy life. Ididn't expect to lose all of it. Not only that, I still owed a lot of money.They said, if I don't pay back, I'll be chopped up. Save me, save me onemore time."
