Hello, Mr. Brent -
Chapter 303
"Are you driving me out?" Mrs Williams raised her eyebrows.
Daniel's face clouded over and he immediately shook his head, "Ofcourse not. I know you're on a mission this time, mother. However, asyou can see, I already fell for someone and we've got a baby. Thus, Iregret that I cannot comply with your wishes."
Mrs Williams snorted coldly, "Since you know why I'm here, how do Iknow if Miss Brent really is your wife? Daniel, don't forget that you aremy son. You're using the same tactics I used. If this is true, I won't forceyou anymore. If it's not, then I have no choice but to let your uncles talkto you."
Daniel's face clouded over. It took him a while to stand up and say, "Ofcourse it's true. Mother, if you don't believe me, you can stay here andsee.”
After that, he turned around and went upstairs.
Mrs Williams sighed, knowing that her failed marriage had completelydestroyed her son's confidence in the marriage. Nonetheless, there wasnothing she could do. She couldn't just watch him live alone for the restof his life!
Franklin took Emily away, got in the car and said to Jason, "Go back toLancaster immediately.”
Emily said in surprise, "Are we going back now? Didn't Daniel ask us toact with him? We can't leave without a word..."
"Silly, don't you understand? Daniel isn't trying to help you. I think hehas an axe to grind.” Franklin snorted.
Emily frowned, "What's his purpose? What good is it for him to do so?He just doesn't want Mrs Williams to know about me, so..."
"Mom, that grandma just told dad to deal with you." Bryce looked upand said to Emily seriously.
Emily twitched her lips and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"Bryce thought for a while and said, "It should be that grandma doesn'tlike mom, so she doesn't want dad to be with mom."
Bryce still called Daniel father, and he couldn't correct himself for amoment.
However, Bryce's address to Daniel made Franklin very dissatisfied. Heimmediately said to Bryce kindly, "Baby, he's not your dad. I'm yourdad."
Bryce looked at Franklin in surprise and stared at him for a while. ThenBryce looked at Emily and asked with the grievance, "Mom, how manyfathers do I have?”
Emily smiled awkwardly. She pinched his little cheek and said, "Ofcourse, you only have one father. Bryce, this is your father, yourbiological father.”
Bryce looked at Franklin, then pouted and said, "But why do I think Idon't look like him?! I look more like my previous dad.”
"Well..." Emily didn't know how to explain it to him. After all, he wasonly three years old. A three-year-old child could not understand sucha complicated relationship.
"It's okay. Take your time.” Franklin was very magnanimous. He reachedout to hold Bryce from Emily's arms into his own.
With Emily around, Bryce was not averse to Franklin's embrace and layobediently in his arms. It seemed that Bryce was so sleepy that he tiltedhis little head, leaned his little face against Franklin's chest, and rubbedagainst it coquettishly.
This was the most common posture for a child, but it was amazing toFranklin.
He looked at the little cute baby in his arms and could not believe thatthis was his son.
He could not help but sigh in his heart that he had missed too much ofthe child's upbringing, and those experiences could never be repeated."He must have been cuter when he was a baby!" Franklin could nothelp but say so when he saw Bryce close his eyes with his longeyelashes trembling.
Emily immediately nodded and said, "Of course, he was very cute. Hestarted teething when he was only six months old, and he also began tobabble very early..."
When Franklin mentioned Bryce's babyhood, Emily couldn't stoppraising Bryce.
Franklin was interested in this matter. One of them held the baby, whilethe other kept talking for more than half an hour.
"Mr. Brent, the road ahead is under repair. We might have to take adetour.” The car stopped and Jason reported to Franklin.
Franklin said, "Then take a detour! Let two people go back to pack up.We'll go straight back to Lancaster.”
"Do we really not tell Daniel?" Emily asked worriedly.
Franklin had no good impression on Daniel, so he snorted, "There's noneed to tell him. He can solve his problems on his own. We don't haveto worry about him.”
"Then I have to tell my mother and meet her!" Emily was a little worriedwhen she thought of her mother.
Franklin couldn't refuse her request. After thinking for a while, he said,"Let's go to your mother's house now and take her with us! Since Danielis in Irvine, your mother shouldn't stay here anymore.”
That was what Emily meant. If her mother met Mrs Williams one day,there would be a fight.
Thus, they immediately asked Jason to drive the car to Abigail's house.She wanted to take a look.
When they got to the place, Emily asked Franklin to wait for her in thecar. Bryce fell asleep in Franklin's arms, so Franklin couldn't go with her.Therefore, she got out of the car by herself.
However, Franklin was worried about her, so he asked a bodyguard togo with her.
He thought that Emily would talk to Abigail for a while and pack hersuitcase.
Unexpectedly, Emily ran down the stairs after a while and said toFranklin anxiously, "Something's wrong. My mother is missing.”Franklin frowned
Emily said anxiously, "Did the Williams take her away? Did Mrs Williamsalready know she was here?"
Franklin immediately said, "Don't worry. We just came out of theWilliams. The Williams won't be here so soon. Maybe she's out to buyfood. We can wait for her at home first. Did you call her? Call her andsee if you can get through.”
Emily was so anxious that she was about to cry. She was sobbing, "I'vecalled her, but no one answered. Besides, it seems that no one has livedin the house for a day or two. A lot of her things are gone, including herclothes.”
"Is everything in the room messy or tidy?" Franklin asked again.
Emily thought for a moment and said, "It's very neat, but her clothesand some personal belongings are missing.”
"Then she shouldn't have been taken away by the Williams. Otherwise,the room wouldn't have been so neat and clean. Maybe she left byherself. Maybe... she left as soon as we left that day because she wasafraid that the Williams would replace her,” Franklin analyzed.
Emily thought that his analysis made sense, so she was relieved. Atleast, her mother was not found by the Williams, nor was she takenaway by the Williams.
But soon she was worried and said, "She just left without telling me. Idon't know where she went. Where should we replace her? We can't justleave her out there like this."
After all, her mother was quite old, so Emily was worried about hermother's safety.
