When Franklin returned to the office, Emily was already asleep on the sofa.
Franklin squatted down on the sofa and stared at her for a while. Emily opened his mouth slightly, as if he was eating something delicious.
Emily woke up almost out of breath and opened his eyes in horror.
"I'm awake." Franklin asked in a husky voice as he parted slightly.
Emily also said in a hoarse voice, "I won't wake up if you do this! When did you come back? Have everything been settled?"
"Yes, it's done. Do you want to go home or stay a little longer?" Franklin asked.
Emily blushed and said shyly, "Go home!"
"We'll go home later." Franklin said in a husky voice.

Anthony pulled Elena away. When he got in the car, Elena beat and scratched him, and scolded him, "You useless man, why didn't you teach that little bitch a lesson? You're her father, and it's natural to teach her a lesson. You forgot what Iris looks like now. You should take it out on Iris."
"How dare I do anything to Franklin over there? You don't want to live anymore. Forget what Franklin did to us last time. If we do it again, we won't be so lucky to meet another Andrew." Anthony was so angry that his face turned red, he couldn't help but yell at his wife.
Elena was stunned and looked at Anthony in a daze. After a long time, he cried out, "Why am I so miserable? How did I find a man like you? You've hurt Iris so much. If you hadn't introduced her to Andrew, she wouldn't be like this now."
"Did I introduce it to her? She was the one who insisted on being with Andrew. I told her not to mess with a man like Andrew, but she just wouldn't listen. Who can blame her for this? She's the one who's obsessed."
"Iris is not here for you. If it weren't for saving you, how could she be with Andrew?" Elena retorted angrily.
Anthony snorted coldly, "She's not just your daughter, she's also my daughter. What does she think I don't know? Is she really doing it for me? If she didn't have real feelings for Andrew, how could it be like this now? Andrew has done her a lot of good."
"You... Anthony, you disappoint me so much," Elena said disappointedly.
Anthony frowned and said with a calm face, "This is not the time to talk about this. That stupid girl Emily actually knows. Abigail must have told her. How dare she? How dare she say it? No, I'm going to find Abigail."
