Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 40

Emily called Franklin after work, telling him that she would go back to the Johnsons first, so Jason don't have to pick her up.

Franklin was on his way to an important meeting, he said yes and hung it up.

Elena opened the door and looked at Emily with disdain, "Look who this is! You said that you would never come back. Then why do you drop by today?"

"I'm not here for you. Where's my father?" Emily said coldly.

Elena was irritated by her attitude. She raised her hand and wanted to slap her, "Hey, be a nice girl. I'm your stepmother. Don't you know how to address me?"

"Who do you want to beat now? Do you think I'm still that defenseless kid?!" Emily grabbed Elena's hand without hesitation and threw her away with great strength.

Elena was a typical southern woman, small and delicate. That's why she caught Anthony's attention at first.

But now her disadvantage was obvious. Emily slammed her against the door and she immediately wailed in pain.

Iris was at home too. When she heard Elena's cry, she ran over. When saw was Emily, she was even angrier.

"Emily, Why are you here?" Iris asked.

"Is father here?" Emily asked again.

Anthony came out of the study. Instead of yelling at Emily, he scolded Iris and Elena before letting Emily in.

"Dad, how can you let her in?" Iris shouted.

"Iris, don't be rude. She's your sister," Anthony scolded.

Iris gritted her teeth in anger, but there was nothing she could do.

Emily snorted, wondering what happened to Anthony. Why did he become nice to her all of a sudden?

"Emily, what do you want?" Anthony asked Emily kindly.

Emily glanced at Iris and Elena. She did not want to say it in front of them.

Anthony said, "It doesn't matter. Just say it. We're all family."

"I went to see my mother today. She's much better. She wanted to thank you in person for raising me up. If you have time, I hope you can go visit her."

Elena immediately shouted, "How shameless Abigail was. Want to see my husband as soon as she woke up?"

"Who are shameless? If you hadn't had an affair with my father, they would never break up. You're the shameless mistress. Shut your fucking mouth up!" Emily retorted angrily.

She would never allow anyone to insult her mother.

"All right, stop arguing," Anthony yelled.

Elena looked at him incredulously and cried out in grievance, "Anthony."

"Get Emily a cup of tea. She rarely comes home. You should have done that when she got in." Anthony scolded Elena again.

He had never been so cruel to her before. Elena was really frightened. Even though she felt aggrieved, she still obediently went to the kitchen to make tea.

Iris got into her bedroom after being scolded by Anthony as well.

When they left, Anthony let Emily sit down and sighed, "It's all my fault that I never fulfill my duty as a father. Don't worry, I'll visit your mother. You've been wronged all these years."

Emily frowned. Anthony's behavior was so strange. She didn't see him for a while and he had changed so much.

"I heard you are with Franklin?" Anthony changed the subject.

Emily nodded. Her father had his own resources like he always did.
