Hello, Mr. Brent -
Chapter 87
"Why do you come here?" Emily frowned and turned to leave.
The person who had brought her in earlier stopped her and said, "MissJohnson, since you're here, let's talk! Mr. Wright really wants to buyyour car."
"Humph, even if he wants to buy it, I won't sell it to him," said Emilycoldly.
The man frowned and looked at Lucas with an embarrassed expression.Lucas waved to let him go and he immediately excused himself. Emilydidn't notice that he left hurriedly and closed the door.
She would like to pull open the door but failed. Then she turned toLucas angrily, "Lucas, you even have the door locked. What do youreally want?"
She was not afraid of Lucas. After all, they had known each other for solong, and she knew him well. She was just angry because he had hertricked to get here.
"Emily, don't be angry.” Lucas quickly said.
Emily said angrily, "Don't call me like that. It sounds disgusting to me."An embarrassed look flashed across Lucas's face. He gritted his teethand said, "Okay. I just want to talk to you. We used to love each otherso much. Even after we broke up, don't we even have a chance to sitdown and talk peacefully?”
Emily sneered, "l used to want to sit down and talk to you peacefully,but have you given me a chance? But you want to talk to me now. Whaton earth do you want to talk about?"
“I'm sorry. I know it's all my fault...”
"Well, don't say that at this time. Both of us have married. And we wereover long ago.” Emily interrupted.
Lucas had a miserable expression on his face. It seemed Emily's coldwords had hurt him a lot.
Emily frowned fiercely, pursed her lips and said, "This is the last time. Ifyou have anything to say, just make it clear today! After that, we willnever see each other again. Even if we meet accidentally, we shallignore each other.”
"Thank you, Emily.” When Lucas heard that she was willing to talk tohim, he immediately smiled with joy.
He politely pulled out her chair and placed her favorite dishes in frontof her, "These are all your favorites. I hope your taste hasn't changedafter such a long time."
Emily sat expressionlessly and had no appetite to eat. She said coldly,"If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Lucas lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm regretful now..."
"Stop saying these words. There's no point in saying them.” Emilyinterrupted him again.
Lucas smiled bitterly, "You're still the same without changes and youstill have a clear sense of gratitude and resentment. With yourpersonality, I really can't imagine how you get along with my YoungestUncle. My Youngest Uncle was the first son of my grandfather in laterlife, so he is highly valued. He has always been bossy and arrogant.Furthermore, he doesn't even bother to show hypocrisy to people andthings he didn't like. Meanwhile, he likes to give orders, disses peopleand makes them heartbroken. I'm wondering who is the bossy one andwho is the obedient one in your marriage. *
"Do you really know her? I don't think he's as bad as you say." Emilyfrowned and was a little unhappy.
"Isn't he?" Lucas smiled bitterly.
Emily thought for a moment. Although Franklin didn't know how tosweet-talk, it was normal for him because she was not his sweetheart.Sometimes he would say harsh words, but he didn't do it for no reason.Overall, Franklin treated her well. Now that Lucas had said that he wasso bad, her impression of Lucas became even worse.
"You don't have to worry about how I get along with him. You'd bettertake care of your affairs with Iris.” Emily said angrily.
Lucas smiled bitterly and said, "Iris and I... I want to divorce her, but shedoesn't agree.”
"Divorce? Why? You haven't been married for long," Emily said insurprise.
"The last time she miscarried and actually she did it on purpose. And Iknew about it." Lucas said slowly.
Emily pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
It seemed that Lucas knew that Iris's baby was not his. No wonder hewanted a divorce. After all, she was with Lucas, but she didn't cherishhim and she even was still fooling around with others.
"You knew it! Did uncle tell you? It seemed that he was really kind toyou. He investigated it thoroughly for fear that you would feel guilty.He let Jason give the information to me, and I didn't expect it to be likethis." Lucas smiled bitterly.
"Ah, he still gave it to you?" Emily was surprised.
Last time Franklin said he didn't care about someone else's wife. Shethought he wouldn't tell Lucas about it.
"I think it's because Iris trapped you on purpose to avenge you!" Lucassaid.
Emily was taken aback and her cheeks slightly flushed. She could nothelp but lower her head with mixed feelings.
Lucas said again. "Actually, he's really good to you. At least, you're veryimportant to him."
"Come on, you don't have to worry about me. You want to divorce Iris?Have you talked?” Emily quickly blushed and changed the topic.
Lucas sneered, "How could she agree? She just got married to me andsigned a prenuptial agreement. How could she let me go easily?Besides, the child was gone and she got shares from a new companyand a position as well. If we divorce, the company will be divided intoseveral parts. It wouldn't be a big loss to me, but it wouldn't be goodfor our family.”
"So you came to me for what?"
He was not about to ask her to persuade Iris to divorce him, was he?But he knew clearly about her relationship with Iris. They were sohostile to each other that she would never persuade Iris to do anything."Don't worry, I'm not asking you to persuade her." Lucas seemed tohave guessed her worry and said quickly.
Emily could not help but heave a sigh of relief, "That's good. I reallycan't help you if you let me persuade her. You know, even though weare sisters, we are not close at all. Our relationship is poor thanstrangers.”
"I must divorce.” Lucas said, "This woman is really vicious. Actually, Imet you today to remind you to be careful of her later. I didn't know ifyou still remembered the last time Lily splashed ink to you? In fact,she's part of it."
"Ah? Was it related to Iris?" Emily was surprised.
Lucas said, "Yes, Lily had been warned by my uncle and didn't dare tomake trouble for you. But after she met Ivy, Ivy introduced Lily to Mrs.Brent, so Lily got the courage again that to you because they backedher up.”
"So it was Ivy!" Emily sneered.
No wonder Franklin said that Lily didn't dare to do anything to her.Later he said that there was someone behind her, but he didn't say whoit was. It was Ivy. He just didn't want to tell her about Ivy's behavior.But she didn't understand that since Ivy was so innocent and kind toher, how could Ivy do that to her? Why she was that hypocritical?
