Hello, Mr. Brent
Chapter 81

While Emily was working, Jason came over and knocked on the door,"Miss Johnson, Mr. Brent is looking for you.”

"Ah, what's the matter?” Emily asked in surprise.

Jason smiled and said, "How would I know? Why don't you go over andtake a look?"

It was embarrassing for him to be the connector of two love birds."Okay, right away." Emily quickly typed in the last paragraph andsnapped shut the computer.

She knocked on the door and went in, but she didn't expect thatFranklin was angry. He held his cell phone and said angrily, "You toldher to come right away, Harry. Last time I pretended nothing hadhappened because we're best friends for years. But that's not a reasonfor her to make mistakes again. If she doesn't apologize in person,don't blame me for being rude.”

With that, he slammed his phone on the table.

Emily was shocked. It was the first time she had seen Franklin lose histemper.

"What's wrong?" Emily asked timidly.

Franklin took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but theexpression on his face was still sullen. He said in a bad tone to Emily,"Why didn't you tell me about what had happened yesterday?"

"Ah? What happened yesterday?" Emily said in surprise

"What else?" Franklin was so angry that he patted the folder on thetable and said, "Yesterday, Ivy deliberately pranked you and asked youto do Truth or Dare and confess to another man. Don't you think it is abig deal? Or do you think that you are a born bitch that you don't takethis as a big deal?"

"How did you know about it?" asked Emily.

Franklin snorted coldly, "Of course I have a way of knowing. Why? Doyou not want me to know?"

Emily was not in a good mood either. She was already in a bad moodbecause she had been pranked yesterday, and she was scolded by himlike that today.

Taking a deep breath, she said slowly, "It's not that I didn't want to tellyou about what happened yesterday. I mean, how should I tell you?Should I tell you that I always lose when I play games with yourrelatives? Or should I say something bad about Miss Carter? In fact,they didn't go too far. I just lost the game, and I've played it before. It'snot a big deal. Why are you so angry?"

"Emily, are you an idiot? Can't you see that you framed by Ivy?" Franklinsaid with anger.

After thinking about it, Emily said, "It's true that she doesn't like mevery much. After all, she likes you and I am your wife. But she's a simpleinnocent young girl. Even if she doesn't like me, she won't do it onpurpose.”

"Innocent?" Franklin sneered, "Emily, it's you who are being cheated,but now you are defending the cheater?”

"What do you mean?” Emily frowned.

Franklin frowned but did not continue.

Emily saw that he didn't speak and asked, "You called me here for this?""You wait here for a while. I've asked Ivy to come over,” Franklin said.Emily was surprised, "Why did you call her over?"

"To apologize to you, of course.” Franklin gritted his teeth and lookedat her. Did she understand his kindness?

"There's no need! It's not a big deal. But you called the girl over toapologize to me? Isn't that going too far?" Emily said.

But she was still very touched that Franklin had called Ivy to apologizefor her. But she felt that Franklin was making too much of a fuss. It wasnot a big deal after all.

She didn't expect her words to annoy Franklin again. He stood up andwalked up to her, pinching her chin and kissing her.

Emily stared at him in disbelief. His kiss was rather rough.

"Can't you say something nice to make me happy? Your mouth alwaysmakes me annoyed." Franklin released her and rubbed her lips with histhumb.

Emily blushed and retorted, "Why do you kiss me if you don't like mymouth.”

He kissed and even squeezed her mouth. Did he think her mouth was asausage?!

"Knock, knock, knock."

Franklin let go of her and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

The door was opened and Ivy came in, followed by Harry.

Emily quickly turned her back to them and wiped her lips. There wasstill Franklin's saliva on her lips, so she could not let others see.

As soon as Ivy came in, she began to cry. Her eyes were red and pitifulas she looked at Franklin. Before she could open her mouth, tears keptfalling like broken beads.

Even Emily couldn't bear to see it, but Franklin said with a serious face,"I will forget about what happened last time. But if I indulge you againthis time, I don't think you won't do that again. Apologize to Emilyimmediately and promise never to do it again.”

"Franklin." Ivy cried even more violently.

Franklin steeled himself and turned his head away from her. Ivy criedeven more.

However, Ivy had no choice but to go to Emily and said to Emily,weeping, "Emily, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I won't dare to do it again.”Emily was embarrassed and awkwardly said, "It's okay, it's okay. I don'tcare. He's making a big deal out of it."

Harry sighed and said to Emily, "Miss Johnson, I'm really sorry that Ididn't discipline my sister. Yesterday's incident made you aggrieved.Just tell me what compensation do you want? I should compensateyou."

Emily panicked even more. She immediately waved her hands and said,"Mr. Carter, there's no need. It really doesn't matter. I don't need anycompensation. You keep saying something like this and make me veryashamed.”

"Well, I heard that it was Alan who sent you back yesterday. You don'thave a car yet? Let me buy you a car! What style do you like?"

"Ah? Buy me a car?" Emily exclaimed in surprise, feeling panicky, "No,no, really. There's no need to buy me a car.”

"That's what I should do. Since you don't tell me, I'll take the liberty ofchoosing one for you! I'll send it to your home as soon as possible,”Harry added.

Emily panicked and looked at Franklin for help, hoping that he couldsay something

But Franklin didn't say a word. It was as if he had agreed.

Emily's lips twitched and she was completely speechless.

After Harry left with the crying Ivy, she rushed to Franklin and said,"Why didn't you refuse? Mr. Carter said he was to buy me a car. Howcan I accept his car?"

"Of course you can't take his car. Even if you would like to have a car,you should drive the car that I buy you,” Franklin said.

"Then why don't you say no for me?"

"Why should I say no? It's a good thing to have someone give you acar. You can keep it if you don't drive it. Or you can give it to someone.Who would refuse a gift?" Franklin replied confidently.

Emily's lips twitched and she looked at him in surprise, as if it was thefirst day that she had known him.
