Franklin snorted coldly, "You are just too soft-hearted. Can't you see her true face until she poisons you like Anthony? Jason's investigation cannot be wrong. She must have something to do with this."
"Then... What should we do? Call the police?" Emily asked timidly.
She remembered that Lily's family had some power. Her father seemed to work in the police station, so it might be useless to call the police!
"Her father is a police officer! Do you think it's useful to call the police?" Franklin asked.
Emily shook her head.
Franklin sighed at her troubled look and couldn't bear to force her any further. He rubbed her hair and said, "Okay, I won't trouble you. Leave this to me and you don't have to worry about it."
"Then how are you going to solve it?" Emily asked curiously.
"Humph, she dared to hurt you so hard, then she must pay the price." Franklin snorted, a chill flashing in his eyes.
Emily shuddered when she thought of what he said about throwing her into the lake and letting fish eat her. She said nervously, "You're not going to kill her, are you?"
Franklin twitched and said, "What are you thinking? I'm not that kind of person."
"That's good. Just warn her and teach her a lesson, but don't kill anyone." Emily said. In fact, she was a timid person.
Franklin was very speechless to her. He helped her to lie down and turned off the light. He said coldly, "Go to sleep! There are still many things to do tomorrow."
Emily closed her eyes and thought, "What can happen? I can't even leave the house now. It doesn't matter if I sleep early or late."
However, next to her soon came the sound of Franklin's even breathing, so she closed her eyes slowly.
When she woke up the next day, and Franklin had already gone to work.
She slept until woke up naturally, and didn't have to worry about whether there was enough food for her to eat. She hadn't had such an experience for a long time. But lying on the bed was really bad. She stretched and asked the maid to help her wash her face and rinse her mouth. Then she hopped onto the wheelchair with a limp and asked the maid to push her out for a walk.
The sunlight in the garden was great, making Emily drowsy.
Just as she was dozing off in her wheelchair, she suddenly heard the noise at the door.
"What's going on?" Emily asked.
The maid shook her head and immediately went to see what was going on. She quickly came back and said, "Mr. Anderson and Mrs. Johnson are here, shouting to see you. But the butler stopped them, so they started arguing."
"Anthony and Elena? Why do they come here?" Emily frowned.
The maid shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
"Push me back," said Emily.
The maid quickly pushed her back. As soon as she got back to the living room, she saw Anthony and Elena pulling with the butler and Elena crying heavily.
"What's the matter with you guys? Why are you coming to cry at my house?" Emily said sarcastically.
When Anthony saw that she was here, he immediately let go of the butler and ran to her and begged, "Emily, for the sake that I am your father, please beg for mercy with Franklin. Dad has been so hard to get to this position, I can't be destroyed just because of this."
"Emily, it used to be auntie's fault, auntie's fault. Please, for the sake that he is your father, don't destroy him." Elena also pounced on Emily and burst into tears.
Emily frowned and looked confused when she heard what they said. She didn't know what was going on.
