Alan got out of the car and walk to Franklin. He greeted him in a low voice, "Hello, I just drove Miss Johnson home."
Franklin's expression changed the moment he saw Alan. He looked serious and dark.
Emily felt his change and quickly smiled and said, "It is Alan who drives me back. I should thank him."
"Right? It seems that you have a lot of free time," Franklin snorted.
Emily noticed that Franklin was unhappy with Alan, so she quickly said to Alan, "Alan, thank you for driving me back. Maybe you should go back now! I'm afraid that Ryan needs to go home now, and you have to return the car to him."
Alan stood still. Maybe he didn't dare to move until Franklin told him to.
Emily frowned and suddenly felt sorry for Alan.
Quietly tugging at Franklin's sleeve, she said, "Franklin, let him go!"
Franklin finally said coldly, "get lost!"
Alan sighed out of relief, nodded at him and left immediately.
Watching Alan leaving, Emily followed Franklin into the car.
When he got home, Franklin untied his tie and took off his coat.
Emily hurriedly took it over from him and hung it up. She was pleasing him. Franklin looked at her in surprise, and Emily immediately gave him a fawning smile.
Franklin thought about it, but he said nothing. He took off his shirt again and dragged her to the bathroom.
"Why are you dragging me?" Emily struggled, not knowing why.
Franklin said concisely, "Take a shower."
"Ah? I do not have my clothes with me. Besides, you haven't taken the shower yet."
"So we can bathe together." Franklin dragged her into the bathroom.
He stripped out of his pants and torn off my dress.
It took an hour for them to finish the shower.
"Go to bed early if you're tired." Franklin lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, gently speaking.
Emily leaned against him. He was sitting beside her, and she gently rubbed against him, looking very dependent.
Franklin had wanted to read the documents for a while, but her actions made his heart soften. He chuckled, put down the file, and lay down to hold her in his arms.
Emily was so tired that she couldn't help but close her eyes.
Her eyes were closed but she still asked, "You don't seem to like Alan very much. Why?"
Franklin was stunned and said unhappily, "Why did you mention him? That's annoying."
In fact, Anthony didn't know Andrew before. It was Anthony's boss who knew Andrew and introduced him to Anthony.
Anthony only knew that Andrew was the son of a big family from the LA. He was ruthless and had a political background. He did business just for fun, but many people try to flatter and please him.
When he first came to Lancaster, he wanted to find a lover, so Anthony's boss thought of Anthony's daughter. And he introduced Andrew to Anthony and let Anthony butter him up.
But after it was over, Andrew never contacted Anthony again. According to his boss, Andrew had something to do back in the LA and he went back. That's why Anthony didn't know that Emily and Franklin had met.
Unexpectedly, Andrew came back and had him brought here. Anthony was naturally afraid and only begged Andrew not to punish him.
Andrew sneered, "Forgive you? Do you know what your daughter did to me last time? She almost crippled me. I would have settled a score with you earlier if I didn't have something to attend to back in the LA. But it's not too late. How do you think we should deal with it?"
"Mr. Sachs, please forgive me. Please forgive me." Anthony kept apologizing.
Andrew looked at him coldly and said slowly when Anthony had redness on his forehead from kowtowing, "It's not impossible to forgive you. I'm always reasonable. The last time you said you would give your daughter to me, I didn't even touch her. Why don't you give her to me again and let me play with her? I'll let bygones be bygones if you do that."
"Ah?" Anthony's eyes widened.
"Why, no?" Andrew’s face turned cold.
"Um..."
Anthony wanted to say that Emily was different now and Andrew wouldn't dare to touch her again. But when he saw Andrew’s eyes, he didn't dare to say it, "Okay, I'll do my best. I'll do my best."
