"What's wrong?" Franklin held her and asked.
Emily rubbed her sore nose and took two steps back. She looked up and said angrily, "What about you telling me what's wrong? Your real fiancee is here. Why do you bring me here?"
Franklin glanced at Avery and said faintly, "You should be our bridesmaid."
"What?"
"What?"
Not only Emily was surprised, but even Avery was surprised.
"Am I not clear enough?" Franklin raised his eyebrows.
Emily gritted her teeth and said in a slightly angry voice, "You're clear. You're very clear. But are you sure that nothing's wrong with your brain?"
He might be the only one in the world to make her, his ex-wife and his current lover, be the bridesmaid in his wedding with another woman.
"It's not that you don't know each other. I think it's good." Franklin said faintly.
After saying that, he looked at Avery and asked, "Avery, what do you think?"
Avery pursed her lips and her eyes sparkled.
Even if she kept holding back, she couldn't stand Franklin's decision.
But after all, she was a cultured lady. Even so, she tried her best to squeeze out a faint smile and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry. I'm not feeling well. So, I'll go back first."
After that, she hurried past Emily and left.
Emily saw the tears in her eyes as she walked over.
She couldn't help but feel a little more disgusted with Franklin and said, "Is it interesting for you to be like this? She's your fiancee. How could you humiliate her like this?"
His decision not only humiliated her, but also humiliated Avery!
No woman wanted her husband's ex-wife to attend her wedding as a bridesmaid.
"What? Do you pity her?" Franklin snorted.
Emily snorted back coldly, "I pity myself. Didn't you say that if I don't want to see her, then I don't have to see her? It seems that she lives here, so I'd better go! As a lover, there should be a place for the lover!"
"No, you stay right here. She doesn't live here. She just happened to be here today." Franklin said faintly. His expression was not nice as if Emily had done something to hurt him.
Emily watched him turn and leave speechlessly, feeling that he was in a bad mood just now.
But it was she who should be in a bad mood! Why did he become angry?
"Hello, Joyce, I'm in Lancaster now." Emily called Joyce and told Joyce about her return to Lancaster.
Emily knew about what happened to James and couldn't help but worry, "Will Franklin let you go? Are you sure it's not dangerous for you to be with him?"
"Don't worry. He's just... He's just trying to get back at me. He won't do anything to me. What happened to Bryce? I'll apply with Franklin immediately to see you." Emily said to Joyce.
Joyce said, "Bryce is fine. It's okay. You don't have to worry about him. Are you going to take Bryce over?"
He kept her by his side only because he still hated what happened back then, although she didn't know what he had to hate. But when he calmed down, he would realize that it was a mistake to keep her by his side as she would always make him angry. Would he let her go then?
"Take your time! Where's Franklin? I'll go find him." Emily thought about it and said to the butler. She was a little happy.
The butler told her that Franklin was in the study. As soon as Emily left, the butler immediately ordered someone to do it.
Emily came to Franklin's study. After knocking on the door, she entered the room. She saw that Franklin's study had not changed at all. This feeling made her very uncomfortable. She always felt that the four years she left were a dream that had never existed.
"I want to go out and see Joyce," Emily coughed softly.
Franklin looked up at her and said, "You want to see your son, don't you?"
Emily couldn't help but blush after hearing Franklin's words, but it was natural for her to see her son, so there was nothing to hide.
So she admitted immediately, "Yes, I want to see my son. I haven't seen him for a long time. I should have gone to see him."
"Actually, giving his custody to his father is more beneficial to his growth," Franklin said coldly.
Emily was stunned and snorted, "Don't worry. Even if I raise him myself, I won't trouble you."
"But you will be with me in the future. Do you think it's good for him to let him know that his own mother is someone else's lover?"
"Franklin..." Emily gritted her teeth in anger.
Seeing that she was really angry, Franklin had no choice but to compromise and say, "Well, since you insist that he be with you, then he can be with you! If he listens to me, I will raise him as my own child. However, the Brent Family has its own rules. Only my child will have the right of inheritance. He doesn't have it, but he can have the right to shortcut."
Emily laughed in anger and said sarcastically, "Then I have to thank you. He's not your child. So, you don't have to be his father."
