Hello, Mr. Brent
Chapter 65

Franklin looked at her in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Are youjealous?”

Emily immediately pulled down the face and screamed like a cat with itshair blown up, "Are you kidding me? I'm not jealous. I'm just telling thetruth.”

"Truth? What's the basis of your inferring to that truth?” Franklinsnorted

"Isn't it the truth?" Emily asked in reply.

Franklin looked at her, feeling a little angry at heart. All of a sudden, hepulled her into his arms, pinched her chin, and kissed her.

Emily widened her eyes, completely unable to react. She did notunderstand why Franklin suddenly kissed her.

Fortunately, he still remembered that they were in the car. There was adriver in front of them, so he knew he could not go too far.

So he gently bit her on the lips before pushing her away. His chest keptheaving with his wheezing and his breath was obviously unstable.However, he still wore a calm and placid expression as usual.

Emily leaned back in her seat and gasped for air. Her heart was filledwith excitement and her face flushed abnormally.

Of course, she wouldn't say it out loud. Even if she was in turmoil atheart, she still tried to be as calm as possible.

Glancing casually at Franklin, she saw that he had already looked out ofthe car window and his side face looked firm and indifferent. He was sogood-looking, but also looked inhumane at the same time.

"What are you looking at?" Emily gasped for a moment and couldn'thelp but ask him as he kept looking outside.

"Since I'm blind, what can I see?" Franklin said. It seemed that he feltaggrieved and talked nonsense.

Emily thought of what she had just said about him and couldn't helpbut chuckle.

But she was really curious about the reason why Franklin didn't like Ivy.As a woman herself, she felt that she would be happy and willing toaccept Ivy's love if she were a man and Ivy liked him.

"Why don't you like Ivy?" Emily couldn't help but ask curiously. Shepressed her lips and said, "Is it because of Avery?"

Franklin's eyes darkened and he turned to look at her with anindifferent face, "Why are you taking so much? Do you want to sit inthe wheelchair for another month?"

Emily was so scared that she immediately shut up. Franklin was sovicious that he even threatened her.

"1 don't care what your answer is. I'm hungry. I want to eat something.”Emily said angrily.

"Go home now." Franklin turned around and continued to look outsidethe car window.

Emily said angrily, "I don’t want to go home. I want to eat outside. Youcan ask the driver to stop and put me down! I can go now anyway. I'llgo home by myself."

"You mean that I should put you down and let you go to dinner alone?"Franklin turned to look at her and asked unhappily.

Emily said, "Of course. Or will you come with me?"

After all, she had never seen Franklin eating outside. He seemed to bevery keen on eating at home. Even when he was engaged in socialevents, after coming back home he would ask the servants to make hima midnight snack. He often ate so much that it was obvious that hehadn't eaten his fill.

"Okay, I'll come with you,” Franklin said.

Emily looked at him in surprise. He thought he would turn aroundawkwardly and let her get out of the car at once. She didn't expect himto go with her.

"If you don't want to, you don't need to force yourself to do so,” Emilysaid immediately.

Franklin said, "I am not forced to do so. It's just a meal. I'm willing toinvite you to dinner.”

After saying that, he gave Jason an address and asked him to sendthem over.

Emily had heard of the place that Franklin was talking about, but shehad never been there. It was said that only private cuisine was servedthere and the guests there were either rich or powerful people. What'smore, you may not be able to eat there even though you have a lot ofmoney. So Emily was really looking forward to the dishes there.

Jason quickly sent them to the place. After the car stopped, Franklin gotout of the car together, holding Emily's hand in his hand.

Being held by Franklin, Emily felt warm. Franklin's palm was wide andwarm, making her feel safe and reliable.

"Mr. Brent."

As soon as Franklin entered, the waiter bowed respectfully to greet him.The manager came soon. He was a gentle and elegant man, smiling andentertaining Franklin himself.

Franklin said, "You don't have to entertain us personally. Go and doyour job! Just replace a private room for us and we'll eat there.”

"Okay, I'll get someone to take you there right away.” The manager saidrespectfully.

Emily followed Franklin, feeling that she had benefited a lot from herassociation with Franklin. She could not help but sigh with emotion inher heart that as the richest man in the world, Franklin was actuallyflattered by everyone.

"Let's go!" Franklin took Emily's hand and walked in.

Unexpectedly, a young man walked out when they were walkingthrough a long corridor. He was surprised to see Franklin, "Uncle? Whyare you here?"

Franklin stopped and looked at him frowning slightly, "Of course, I'mhere to have dinner. What else can I do here?"

The young man blushed as Franklin said that. But he was probably usedto being ridiculed by Franklin. He quickly returned to normal andsmiled, "Then let's sit together! Lucas and Ivy are also here."

Perhaps Ivy had heard Franklin's voice and she ran out of the room.When she saw Franklin, her eyes brightened and she immediatelywalked over to him and said, "Franklin, you're here too! What acoincidence! Let's sit together!"

"There's no need. I have someone with me." Franklin pushed Ivy's handaway.

Ivy was a little disappointed. She then looked at Emily and smiled, "Soit's Emily who is with you. We all know each other well. I believe thatEmily wouldn't mind your sitting together with us!”

Emily smiled awkwardly.

She wanted to say yes, but seeing Franklin's face, she knew he wasunwilling. She had no right to say anything.

"Emily, come and eat with us." Ivy was such a coquettish girl. She ran toEmily and shook her arm.

It was the first time that Emily had seen such a coquettish girl. Shecouldn't help but be softhearted and she looked at Franklin and said,"Why don't we sit together?”

Franklin glanced at her and finally nodded. Ivy said happily, "That'sgreat. I'll have them serve other dishes right away."

Everyone knew that Franklin was a neat freak. Although they only ate afew mouthfuls, Franklin still didn't like it. Ivy simply asked the waiters towithdraw all the dishes and bring up new ones.

Emily and Franklin went in. There were several other people insidebesides Ivy and the young man. Among them were Lucas and Iris. Irisand Lucas were stunned when they saw Emily, and then they turnedaway in disgust.
