Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 273

The butler said in surprise, "Madam, are you going out? Does Mr. Brent know?"

Emily was stunned. She then scowled and said, "What? Do I have to report to him and get his permission when I go out?"

The butler immediately lowered his head and said, "Of course not. It's just that Mr. Brent really cares about you. Before he left, he enjoined us to take good care of you. If you want to go out, I'll arrange for a car and bodyguards for you right now, just in case."

Emily frowned. If the driver gave her a ride and the bodyguards followed, Franklin would definitely know about her meeting with Alan. If Alan was irritated and didn't tell her about her son, then all her efforts would be wasted.

Moreover, Franklin might be mad as well when he knew that she had been in contact with Alan.

Therefore, she must not let the driver give her a ride.

"No need. I don't need the driver. I'll drive myself." Emily said without hesitation.

The butler looked at her in shock.

Emily was annoyed and took out her phone to call Franklin.

"Did you tell the butler to keep an eye on me? You ordered them to follow me wherever I go. Don't I have freedom?" Emily asked sharply.

Franklin was in a meeting and was stunned to hear what she said. Then he stood up and walked out the door to answer, "Why? I've never asked them to do so. Are you going out?"

"Yes, I want to go out, but the butler said he would arrange a car and bodyguards for me, or he wouldn't let me out."

The butler was sweating and wailing in his heart, "Madam, please, I didn't say that."

Franklin smiled and comforted her, "He might have misunderstood me. I was afraid that something might happen to you, so I specifically told him to make such arrangements when you go out. I did that to protect you. I didn't mean to restrict your movement."

"But I want to drive myself," Emily said.

Franklin frowned and asked, "You drive yourself? Where do you want to go?"

"Just hang out with my old friends. It's so embarrassing to have people follow me. I don't want that," Emily said irritably.

Franklin thought that the two of them had just gotten married and it was not appropriate to argue about such a thing.

So he agreed, "Okay, as you wish! But when you get there, send me a message. If anything happens, call Lisa immediately and ask her to pick you up."

"I see. Don't worry. I'll be fine." Emily knew that Franklin was worried about her and could not help but soften her tone.

After the call, Emily said to the butler, "Mr. Brent has promised me to drive out by myself. Do you want to call him again to confirm?"

The butler shook his head and responded, "Of course not. Please forgive me, madam."

Emily knew that he was only following Franklin's words and was concerned about her safety, so she sighed and comforted him, "I don't blame you. It's your duty. Thank you for concerning me."

After that, Emily went out and found a low-key car to drive out.

In the past, the cars in Franklin's garage befitted his status and temperament. Even if there were a few more fashionable luxury cars, they were meant for a man's temperament. This time, Emily noticed that there were a few more cars suitable for women and even a sports car in the garage.

She didn't like cars that were too conspicuous, so she chose an understated one.
