Emily looked at her with a frown. She really didn't want to talk to her. One was his ex-girlfriend and the other was his current wife. There was nothing to talk about between them.
But Avery looked at her so tenderly that she couldn't bear to refuse.
After a while, he said sullenly, "Okay! Miss Lewis, come in and sit down!"
"Let's go somewhere else to talk!" Avery smiled.
Emily was going to say that she was pretentious. What happened to her store? The decoration is still very tasteful, is it not worthy of her identity?
But then she realized that she was only thinking about her. The relationship between the two of them was already very delicate. There was nothing to talk about between the two of them other than Franklin, so it was not good to be heard by acquaintances here.
Avery went to a quieter coffee shop across the street and sat down next to the window.
After Emily sat down, he thanked her and said, "Thank you."
Avery smiled clearly and said, "Miss Johnson is a smart man. Without Franklin, I think we can be good friends."
Emily smiled and said, "Why can't we be good friends with Franklin? Does Miss Lewis still miss him?"
Avery was not angry either. He chuckled and said, "Franklin and I were childhood sweethearts. We used to love each other very much, but we had to part because we had to, but it didn't affect our relationship. I know he's married to Miss Johnson now. You're husband and wife, and you're the closest people. Those feelings that we used to have slowly faded away, but we are still best friends."
Emily gritted his teeth and thought to himself that Avery was really a good character. How could she say these words so sweetly that she could not pick out the thorns?
"Miss Lewis asked me to come over and tell me this?" Asked Emily.
She was so stuffed up that she didn't want to talk to her anymore. He had no choice but to ask directly and quickly end the topic.
Avery shook his head and said, "No, I came to see Miss Johnson today, not to talk about Franklin, but about Andrew."
"Andrew? What's wrong with him?" Emily said in surprise.
