Hello, Mr. Brent -
Chapter 66
Emily didn't care and sat next to Franklin.
It was only after Ivy's introduction that she knew the young man, whosename was Ryan, was the grandson of Franklin's uncle. Therefore,according to seniority, she should call Franklin "Uncle". There were alsoseveral juniors, including his nephews and Iris, the wife of his nephew.And this Ryan seemed to be very fond of Ivy, constantly courting herduring dinner.
Unfortunately, Ivy ignored him. She only cared about Franklin, keepingasking him what he wanted to eat and talking to him. Even if Franklindidn't respond, she could still smile happily.
"You are so cold. Miss Carter likes you so much.” As a bystander, Emilycouldn't help but whisper to Franklin.
Franklin glared at her and put a meatball into her mouth.
Such a big meatball was divided into four portions before eating.Franklin stuffed it all into her mouth. Obviously, she was extremelyawkward.
Her mouth was so full that she couldn't even spit it out. Therefore, shecould only swallow it with her face flushed.
She couldn't chew it up. So she almost swallowed it, nearly choking todeath.
"Have some water!” A young man next to her brought her a glass ofwater.
Emily quickly picked it up and took a sip. When she could breathe, shesaid to the young man, "Thank you."
But when she saw what the man looked like, Emily was stunned.
This man looked so much like Franklin, except for his temperament. Hewas much more gentle and elegant.
Brother? Emily thought to herself.
However, she recalled that Ivy said his name was Ethanfan, which wassimilar to Ryan's. So he should be Franklin's nephew.
"Emily, your face is so dirty. Clean it up quickly.” Franklin glared atEthanfan and then said to Emily in disgust.
Emily snorted. Who caused her to get so dirty? If he didn't put the bigmeatball into her mouth, how could she be like this?
But in front of so many of his juniors, it was not easy for her to refutehim. She immediately got up and went to the bathroom.
"I really can't figure out why Franklin married you. You saw howbeautiful Miss Carter was and how much she liked Franklin.”
Emily was washing her hands. She didn't expect Iris to also come in,mocking behind her.
Emily ignored her. She stood up, shook her hand, and wanted to leave.Iris anxiously grabbed her arm and snorted, "Emily, don't becomplacent. Don't think that with Franklin supporting you, you canthink poorly of me. One day you'll be abandoned by him, and he'll bewith the right woman.”
"Iris, are you crazy? Even if I was abandoned by him, it's none of yourbusiness. I think you'd better pay more attention to Lucas. He doesn'teven care about you now!"
Iris's face turned white because Emily spoke of her pain.
Indeed, during this period of time, Lucas became more and moreindifferent to her and even proposed to divorce her.
But she refused, and now she was pregnant. Lucas had no choice but tobe with her.
But one day, she wouldn't be able to hold on. Her belly was gettingbigger and bigger...
Iris's gaze changed and she gritted her teeth. Suddenly she leaneddown and bit Emily on the shoulder.
Emily screamed in pain and immediately threw Iris away.
At this time, the others heard the screams and rushed over. All they sawwas that Emily pushed Iris to the sink.
Iris's belly hit the corner of the sink. And then she wailed in pain andslid down the sink.
"Ah," Ivy screamed, covering her mouth and pointing at Iris's lowerbody.
Only then did everyone see that Iris was bleeding.
She was wearing a pair of white shorts today, making the red bloodvery eye-catching. The blood flowed out of her thighs and quicklyspilled all over the floor.
"My child, my child.” Iris cried weakly, clutching her belly.
Lucas also seemed to be frightened and stood there in a daze, notdaring to move.
Franklin immediately slapped him and yelled, "Hurry up and take her tothe hospital.”
Lucas came to his senses and immediately picked up Iris. Someone hadalready called the hospital.
Because of this, it was impossible for them to continue to eat. A groupof people followed them out, and soon Emily was the only one left inthe bathroom.
She stood there in a daze, her mind buzzing.
Franklin came over and put his arms around her shoulder and saidgently, "It's okay. No one blames you."
Emily returned to her senses and muttered, "She bit me, so I... I didn'texpect her to be pregnant. I really didn't expect that.”
"She bit you?" Franklin's face sank. He immediately rolled up her sleeveand saw a deep row of teeth marks on her arm.
"What if she miscarried?” Emily felt it painful before, but now she didn'tfeel the pain anymore. All she thought about was Iris, who wasbleeding.
Franklin said gloomily, "It's better to miscarry, or I'll have to bear thebad reputation of doing something to a pregnant woman.”
Emily's tears streamed down her face, not noticing Franklin's gloom atall. Then she followed Franklin to the hospital. Iris had been sent to theemergency room
Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Johnson, and Lucas’ parents were there. Even Mrs.Brent was there. Ivy was obediently standing beside Mrs. Brent.
"Emily, I'll kill you. If something happens to Iris, I'll make you pay for it."As soon as Elena saw her, she rushed over and cried out.
Anthony held her in his arms and didn't let her go, but his red eyeswere fixed on Emily, full of enmity.
Emily stood timidly beside Franklin. She really didn't expect Iris to getpregnant and the sink to bump into her belly. The thought of Irisbleeding made her feel cold.
Mrs. Wright walked up to Mrs. Brent and said with a great grievance,"Mom, you have to make Emily pay for it. This is Lucas’ first child, butit's gone..."
Mrs. Brent walked towards Emily with a gloomy face, and Ivy followedclosely behind her.
Emily pursed her lips and leaned timidly against Franklin.
Franklin glanced at her and stood forward, blocking her behind him,and said to Mrs. Brent, "Mother, tell me what you want to say.”
Mrs. Brent said angrily, "Franklin, are you still protecting her? Look atwhat she did. She's really evil. She actually attacked her own sister andcaused her to miscarry.”
"I didn't know she was pregnant. I..."
"Hmph, you can do it if you don't know she's pregnant? Franklin, thisvicious woman can't be in our The Brents.”
"She's my wife. I have the final say on this. What's the truth of thismatter? Only when Iris comes out can we know it. I'll take care of this.Mother, it's none of your concern.” Franklin said coldly, obviouslydefending Emily.
Ivy pursed her lips and quickly stroked Mrs. Brent's back, "Auntie, don'tbe angry. I think Franklin is right.”
However, Mrs. Brent became even angrier that her face turned white,"You really need to deal with this. You have to give an explanation tothe Wrights.”
