Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 269

Franklin looked at Emily, smiling foolishly with smiling eyes and dimples appearing on his cheeks.

Emily was surprised and she stared at the dimples on his face. She had known Franklin for so long but she had never known that he had dimples.

Of course, it could also be because that she had never seen him smile like this before. Seeing him smile all of a sudden so close, she noticed all the features on his face.

"Franklin, I didn't expect you to be so cute when smiling." Emily couldn't help but touch his face.

But Franklin grabbed her hand and kissed it, saying, "Don't call me by my name. Call me 'honey'. I like to hear you call me that."

Emily was stunned, but since he had been drunk, she did as he said, called him, "Honey."

Franklin became immediately happy and wrapped his arms around her neck and kissed her lips. After the kiss, he closed his eyes as if he was going to fall asleep.

Emily remembered that he had told her that he had something to say. But now he fell asleep.

"Honey, don't sleep! Didn't you just tell me you wanted to say something to me? What's that?"

Sure enough, Franklin reopened his eyes, but his eyes were shining brightly at her. After a while, he smiled foolishly and said, "Emily, you don't know how much I like you."

"How much do you like me?" Emily blushed, her heart trembling slightly, and she asked in a hurried voice.

"I like you very much, much more than you have thought." Franklin muttered again.

Emily's heart instantly softened. Such a good-looking man told her that he liked her very much. No matter how much unpleasant things they had experienced before, at this moment, she was moved.

She reached out and touched Franklin's face and said, "I like you too. I like you very very much. You have no idea how upset I was when you were going to marry Avery. Although I pretended to be indifferent on the surface, I was hurt."

"I know, I've always known that." Franklin murmured against her forehead.

Emily's eyes suddenly became watery and she choked, "You don't know that. If you knew, you wouldn't have lied to me for so long."

"I don't mean to lie to you. I'm just angry." Franklin muttered again.

Emily mumbled, "Why are you angry?"

She should be the one who should be angry! If he hadn't done a stupid thing and imprisoned her, she would have got the news of her son in time and would not miss the possibility of finding him back.

Emily thought that Franklin's anger was out of her being forced to leave him.

But Franklin muttered, "Of course I'm angry. I'm angry that you don't remember me at all. I'm even angrier that you don't believe my feelings for you at all. You left for four years. You never came back to me again."

"What? What do you mean about 'didn't remember you' ?" Emily was getting more and more confused.

Franklin suddenly smiled foolishly and kissed her face with half-narrowed eyes. His kisses were from her eyebrows to the nose and mouth, then to her tender lips, his lips lingering over hers.

But Emily was not in the mood to enjoy the kisses now. The more she thought about what he had just said, the weirder she felt. She always felt that there was something she didn't know.
