"I came here today to look for you." Emily pressed her lips and mustered up the courage to say it.
"I'm busy." Franklin stood up and walked out.
Emily was anxious and she grabbed him and said, "Give me three minutes. No, just two minutes."
"I won't give you even one minute," Franklin said firmly.
After saying that, he shook her off and walked out, very determinedly.
Emily was so angry that her face turned red and she stood there with her fists clenched, her eyes misty.
She really did not expect that Franklin, who had said he would be responsible and marry her, would be so heartless now.
But on second thought, she thought that was reasonable. She thought Franklin said that just on a whim. Now that he had calmed down, of course, he would avoid her like she was a snake or a scorpion. He just wanted to avoid her, so how could he be fully prepared to marry her?
"Forget it. It is completely impassable", she thought to herself. She should think of other ways.
With a bitter smile, she wiped away her tears and was about to leave.
But unexpectedly, when she walked out of the door, she saw Franklin leaning against the wall, arms folded. It was as if he was waiting for her.
"Why are you still here?" Emily was surprised.
Franklin looked at her reddened eyes and frowned slightly, "I've thought about it and I'll give you a chance! But not now. I'll take you home after the party. Let's have a talk in the car."
"Really? You are really willing to talk to me?" Happiness came so suddenly that Emily could not react.
Franklin said, "Forget it if you don't believe me."
Then he turned around and walked downstairs.
Emily quickly caught up with him and said, "Of course, I believe you. How can I not believe you?"
"Ah."
Emily was in such a hurry that she slipped and fell to the ground with a cry.
Franklin was startled and grabbed her by the waist.
Emily looked at him in a daze. Before she could react, Franklin yelled at her, "Are you a fool? You just walk and fall. I don't know if you're abnormal now, or if you want to kill your baby on purpose."
"I'm... I'm sorry." Emily apologized in a daze.
"Idiot." Looking at her, Franklin was not even in the mood to scold her.
He released her and cursed, but instead of turning around, he took her hand and went downstairs.
While holding her hand, he snorted, "Hold on to me. I won't hold you if you fall again."
Emily nodded her head hard, but she was scared when she came back to her senses. If she had fallen, she might have hurt her baby.
She really did not expect Franklin to like children so much. Although he did not like her, he was so concerned about the child in her womb.
"Lucas, look, your uncle is helping Emily down the stairs." When Iris looked up and saw this scene, her face darkened and she quickly tugged at Lucas.
Lucas also showed a shocked expression and clenched his fists.
Harry went up to Emily and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"
"Thank you, I'm fine." Emily shook her head quickly.
