"Do you want to know?" Franklin asked as he raised his eyebrows.
Of course, Emily wanted to know. She wanted to know it so much that her breath became heavy. So she nodded hard and looked at Franklin with bright eyes, hoping that he would tell her soon.
Franklin smiled and lowered his head. He kissed her eyes.
She looked at him with bright eyes. No matter what the reason was, it made him feel very comfortable. He felt an indescribable sense of comfort and warmth. All the hard work in Lancaster was worthwhile. In order to come back early to accompany her, he worked overtime almost overnight. Everything was worth it now. As long as he could see her eyes, he was willing to do anything.
"Hurry up and say it!" When Emily saw that he didn't say anything, she was so anxious that her whole body seemed to be on fire.
But Franklin smiled and said, "I can say it if you want me to, but you have to please me first. If you please me, I'll tell you."
"You're really annoying. How could you be like this? Say it or not. It's up to you. You make a mistake and still refuse to admit it. You still ask for benefits from me. There's nothing you can get from me. If you don't say it again, I'll really be angry. And I will think that you do it on purpose and have a relationship with that woman."
Emily pretended to be angry and pushed him away with a snort.
But Franklin stopped her before she could make any other actions. He scolded angrily, "You don't want to please me. I have the scandal with that female star for you. Otherwise, can I let someone write things about me like that? Well, you're not grateful to me and you're even still angry with me. If you continue being angry with me, I'll clarify the truth. And you will not continue to act with Daniel."
"What do you mean?" Emily turned to look at Franklin in surprise.
Why was it her fault that he was flirting with someone else?
Franklin snorted and said, "Do you really think that the Williams won't investigate you if they agree that you will marry Daniel? Although my marriage with you is not known to everyone, it has also been reported on TV. Although your name is not directly reported, anyone who wants to find it out will find it out. In order not to make the Williams suspect, I spread rumors outside, saying that after I was dumped by Avery, I wanted to save my face for a while, so I let my half-sister pretend to be my bride at the wedding so as to finish my wedding. In fact, my bride is an illegitimate daughter of my father. We are not a couple. Now that I'm caught having an affair with Amy, it just confirms this."
"Ah, it's so complicated." Emily was surprised.
Franklin slapped her again and said, "Otherwise? Do you think the Williams won't suspect?"
"But there are too many loopholes in this story. Is the Williams not suspicious?" Emily didn't think that people in the Williams were idiots!
"It's too short and too hasty, so they don't have time to do more detailed investigations. Besides, I have an affair and Daniel is bent on marrying you. Is Daniel a fool in your eyes? If not, he is definitely not a fool in the eyes of the people in the Williams. In that case, they have no reason not to trust Daniel and they will not think that Daniel is acting with you. Most importantly... They don't think that I will sacrifice my wife to act with Daniel. Not only will they not believe it, I'm afraid that no one in this world will believe it." Franklin's face darkened.
Emily's mouth twitched. She was made speechless by Franklin.
She blushed for a long time before whispering, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. I really didn't expect... I really didn't expect that the Williams would investigate. Is this why you and that Amy are flirting with each other? It's really fake, isn't it?"
"Till now, you still don't believe me?" Franklin said angrily.
