Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 156

Abigail talked to Emily again, and after a while Hunter called for dinner. Abigail went into the kitchen to help Hunter with the dishes and told her about her work.

During dinner, Hunter toasted Emily and thanked her for her help.

Emily said, "You will be a family in the future. You don't have to be so polite. You should do this job well. It may be a little hard at first, but if you do it well, you will have a chance to continue your promotion in the future."

Hunter nodded quickly and promised Emily again and again that he would work hard and never betray her and Franklin's trust.

After dinner, Hunter suggested sending Emily downstairs.

Abigail saw the two of them wanting to say something, but he still let Hunter go.

When they got downstairs, Emily asked Hunter, "Did you ask?"

Hunter nodded and whispered to Emily, "This is a problem for your mother. It took me a long time to get the truth from her. But don't question her. She has her own reasons. As for what they are, she won't say."

"What is it?" Emily frowned. When he said it, it seemed to get worse.

"I heard from your mother that you... You are not Anthony's biological daughter. Your biological father has someone else," Hunter said.

"What?" Emily exclaimed, "You said Anthony wasn't my real father?"

"Hush, hush, hush. Don't let your mother hear you. She kept telling me not to tell you about this," Hunter said nervously.

Emily looked at Hunter in shock, as if he could not believe what he said was true.

After a while, she calmed down and said, "How is it possible that Anthony isn't... Then why has mother kept me from telling me the truth all these years? Even if Anthony did this to me, she still wouldn't dare to tell me the truth. I don't believe it, I don't believe it."

In fact, she wished that Anthony had nothing to do with her. Such a father meant nothing to her.

But what she couldn't accept was her mother's attitude, if Anthony really wasn't her biological father. Then why did her mother allow her to be bullied by the Anthony family? Last time, she said that Anthony's family had a history of mental illness, so her mother testified to Anthony and slandered her.

Is she not her biological mother?

"Is she... Not my biological mother?" Emily asked sadly.

Hunter immediately said, "Of course not. She's your biological mother, and there's no doubt about that. She has her own reasons. She knows that she's sorry for what she did before, and she knows how cruel Anthony was to you. But there was nothing she could do, as if Anthony knew about it and kept threatening her with it. Your father... Should not be a simple person. She was always afraid that person would find your mother and daughter, so she was always threatened by Anthony."

Emily frowned. It was too sudden for her to accept.

However, she listened to Hunter's words and stopped questioning her mother for the time being.

"I'm leaving first. This matter... Give me some time to accept it. I won't tell my mother for the time being," Emily said.

Hunter nodded and said gratefully, "It's not easy for your mother. She's worried about this being leaked out. Just think of it as for her own good, as if you don't know!"

"Well, I'm still asking you to take good care of her," Emily said.

Hunter nodded and watched her leave.

Emily returned home in a daze and told the servant not to disturb her, so he went upstairs alone.

Lying on the bed, Emily couldn't help but think of all the experiences from childhood. Anthony never liked her. She knew that, but she didn't know why.

It turned out that when she was young, she felt that Anthony didn't like her because she didn't have her mother around. It was Elena's fault. But what happened later made her feel that Anthony didn't just dislike her, he didn't even think of her as his own daughter.
