Hello, Mr. Brent
Chapter 45

"Emily, I didn't argue with your mother. I just had some disagreementswith her,” Anthony tried to explain.

However, Emily did not want to listen to him at all. She immediatelypushed him out and said harshly: "Disagreements? My mother hasdivorced you. What disagreements can it be? Get out of here right now,I don't want to see you."

"Emily, don't be like this. He's your father." Abigail tried to get up fromthe bed to stop her, but she was too weak for that.

After Emily pushed Anthony out, she quickly helped Abigail to lie downand said, "Mom, you don't have to be afraid of him now. I've grown upand no one can be hard on you."

"Emily, he wasn't hard on me. You misunderstood.” Abigail wanted toexplain.

But Emily didn't listen at all. She just thought that her mother was tooweak and didn't want her to argue with Anthony.

Abigail didn't accompany her daughter to grow up, so she couldn't saytoo much. After chatting for a while, they talked about Franklin.

Emily smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry. He's very good to me.”"That's good." Abigail nodded, but then caressed her head with worry,"Mom is just worried that you would suffer. I heard from your fatherthat Franklin is from an established family and he is the richest man inLancaster. Is that true?”

Emily cursed Anthony a million times in her heart and nodded with asmile, "Yes, but that's his image in public. He loves me. That's thepoint.”

"Really? How did you get to know each other?" Abigail asked.

"Emm..."

"My phone is ringing." Emily immediately took out her phone. Now shewanted to thank the person who called her because he saved her a lotof trouble.

But when she saw that it was Franklin, she quickly stood up and walkedoutside and said, "Hey, what's up?”

"Where are you?" Franklin asked.

"I'm in the hospital with my mother.”

"I'll pick you up."

"Sure, but don't come up. I'll go down and wait for you downstairs,"Emily said.

Franklin agreed and hung up.

Emily took a deep breath and hung up her phone. When she returnedto the ward, she said to Abigail anxiously, "Mom, I have to go. I'll seeyou next time."

After that, she ran away without giving her mother a chance to ask herfurther.

Emily waited for nearly an hour before Franklin arrived.

She was getting impatient. She's not feeling very well. Her stomachached because of bloating.

She didn't know if it was because she was pregnant. She didn't want totell Franklin, or he would have made a fuss and sent her to the hospitalfor a checkup.

"Wait for a long time?" After Emily got in the car, Franklin held herhand. It was frozen.

Emily nodded.

Franklin was displeased and said with a straight face, "Are you stupid?You can wait in the ward. I would call you when I get here."

"My mother asked me how we met each other. I don't know how toexplain it to her?” said Emily pouted.

Franklin frowned and asked doubtfully, "Why can't you tell her how wemet?"

"Of course not. I can't let my mother know that.” Emily exclaimedimmediately.

Then she thought of Anthony and became even angrier. She snorted,"My father came here today. I didn't expect him to argue with mymother. I really regret letting him visit my mother. I don't want to seehim again.”

"Your mother is very beautiful. She must be a beauty when she wasyoung," Franklin commented.

Emily immediately said proudly, "Of course. My mother was pretty easyon the eye, and she's not bad now."

"But your father is mediocre. How did she fall in love with him backthen, and how could he betray her?" Franklin asked curiously.

Emily glared at him, "How would I know? You're too nosy."

"I just think you neither look like your mother nor your father,” Franklinsaid faintly.

"What do you mean?” Emily frowned. Why was she feeling there was aninsinuation in his remark?

"Nothing. Since you don't like your father so much, don't meet himagain. By the way, what did you eat for lunch? Don't take junk food. I'veasked the nanny to make soup for your dinner. Drink more.” Franklinchanged the subject.

Thinking for a while, in order to avoid trouble, Emily didn't tell him thatHarry came to look for her to buy the house.

Nodding, she thought of Mrs. Brent and asked curiously, "How's yourtalk with your mother today? Did she make things difficult for you?""Of course not. She left shortly after you left.”

"What your mother said..."

"Emily, don't mention anything that displeases me," Franklin said with acold face before she could ask.

Emily pouted, "Well, OK."

"Eat more, talk less. Make sure the baby is healthy and safe.” Franklincaressed her head with his fingers running through her hair.

Emily thought that he really liked children. The reason why he marriedher so urgently was that he not only wanted a wife to be his shield, butalso an heir!

Alas, she got pregnant the first time they slept. She didn't know if it waslucky or unlucky.

Fortunately, he liked kids, so the child wouldn't live a hard life in thefuture.

When she got home and had some soup, Emily couldn't eat anymore,no matter how Franklin coaxed her. He was so irritated that he wantedto lose his temper.

Emily had no choice but to coax him that she wanted to take a walk todigest and then come back to eat. She wanted to take a walk in thegarden with Franklin. The Brent was very big and the view of the gardenwas beautiful and worth appreciating.

But Franklin got a call and said he had something to deal with.

Emily was too lazy to stroll alone, so she wanted to go back to herroom to rest and contact the decoration company to make thedecoration plan.

Unexpectedly, the servant knocked on the door as soon as she wentupstairs, saying that the butler had something to do with her.

"You want me?" The butler was in his fifties, so Emily was respectful tohim.

"Madam, Mrs. Brent just called and said she wanted to see you. A driverhas been sent to pick you up. Please prepare yourself!” The butlersmiled.

"Ah? Mrs. Brent wants to see me?" Emily said in surprise.

Mrs. Brent just met her in the morning. Why did she want to see heragain?

The butler smiled and said, "I don't know, either, madam. You'd betterget prepared!”

"I see,” Emily said worriedly.

She changed her clothes and came out, and then called Franklinanxiously.

But Franklin's phone wasn't answered. She was so anxious that shesweated and had to call Jason. Jason said that Franklin was having ameeting with someone, so she had to leave a message that she wasgoing to the Brent's Residence.

Mrs. Brent's car arrived soon, and Emily got in.

After getting in the car, she cheered herself up in her heart. It wasn't abig deal to meet Mrs. Brent. After all, she couldn't eat her.
