Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 166

Emily was not surprised to hear from Abigail, but she didn't expect her to call her for so long.

"Okay, I know. I'll be there today," Emily said gloomily.

Hanging up the phone, Emily felt even more depressed. She could almost guess that Anthony must have gone to her mother after quarreling with her that day, but her mother had been holding back for two days before calling her. She must have been struggling these two days and didn't know how to talk to her about it.

And now that I'm calling her, I finally figured it out. Am I going to tell her the truth?

Emily only felt sad. Her mother, whom she had thought to be the most intimate, suddenly became strange. There were too many secrets in her mother that she did not know, pulling the distance between them very far.

And in this vast world, perhaps only Franklin belonged to her completely, so that she could feel the warmth of people.

"Franklin, you will never leave me, will you?" Emily came to Franklin's study and hugged him from behind.

Franklin was not used to her hugging her like this, so he pulled her hand and pulled her into his arms and sat on his lap.

"What's wrong?" Franklin felt something was wrong with her and asked doubtfully.

Emily shook his head, put his arms around his neck and leaned into his arms, "It's okay. It's just that I'm upset and want to find you to comfort me."

Franklin curled his lips and kissed her lips, "Okay."

...

After that, Emily lay lazily on the bed, not to mention feeling depressed now, she did not even have the strength to be depressed.

Franklin was lying next to her after a shower. He was in a good mood now. Unlike Emily, he was full of energy.

Emily said, "Franklin, I didn't expect you to be so thick-skinned. Whatever you think, I want to sleep for a while. Call me up at five. I have an appointment with my mother."

"Are you in a bad mood because it has something to do with her?" Franklin raised an eyebrow.

Emily was stunned, wondering how he remembered this.

"I'm not in a bad mood now. I'm sleepy. I want to sleep." Emily closed her eyes immediately.

Franklin's eyes darkened and he said he was fine. It was obvious that something was wrong.

After washing up, Emily finally woke up and quickly changed his clothes to go downstairs.

Franklin held her back and said, "Wait for me. I'll send you there."

"No need, I can go by myself," Emily said quickly.

Franklin frowned unhappily and said with a cold face, "Why don't you want me to go? Is there something you're not telling me?"

Emily could not help but lower his head and pursed his lips when he was told what was important.

Franklin sighed, pinched her cheek and said, "Tell me if you have something, don't keep it from me on purpose. I'll give you a chance to change your ways. I'll go with you and make it clear to me on the way."

"Well, okay! I'll tell you, but you can't make fun of me," Emily whispered.

In fact, it wasn't that she didn't want to tell Franklin, mainly because she was afraid that Franklin would look down on her. No matter how bad Anthony was, she could at least prove that she was a normal child.

But once Anthony was not her biological father and she was an illegitimate daughter, her identity would be awkward.
