Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 93

This was the third time that Emily had come to the villa. Every time when she came here, she felt it was gloomy, and this time even worse.

Mrs. Brent sat on the sofa while Ivy stood beside her. As Mrs. Brent sipped her tea slowly, she glanced at Emily carelessly.

Every time she glanced at Emily, Emily felt creepy.

"Mrs. Brent, madam is here." Lisa said, breaking the silence.

Ivy smiled and said, "Lisa, long time no see. Franklin told me that you had gone abroad to help him. Lisa is getting more and more beautiful. I got back home from abroad and brought a gift to you. I'll give it to you later."

"Thank you, Miss Carter," Lisa thanked her quickly.

Mrs. Brent said, "It was because Franklin was afraid that I would bully this girl that he asked you to come with her! He has worried too much. I won't be mean to a girl who understands nothing. Since you're here, check the ledger first. It's all the expenses for the party. Check the accounts and see if it's right or if there's anything different with the ledger."

After Mrs. Brent finished her words, she winked at Ivy and asked Ivy to give Emily the ledger.

Emily hurriedly accepted it and thought, "Is it that simple? Is it just an account checking?"

Mrs. Brent warned her "Just check the accounts here! The servant will take you to the study. Don't take this ledger out of this house, or take any photos. It should be kept in confidence."

Emily agreed. Together with Lisa, she went to the room arranged by the maid for her.

Emily thought that Mrs. Brent would arrange a broken, old, windowless room to torture her. But she didn't expect it to be a study room, which looked good.

Lisa took a look and said, "It is not bad."

"Yeah, that's weird. Why didn't she torture me?" Emily asked curiously.

"This is really not Mrs. Brent's style. Could it be that she did something with the ledger?"

Emily hurriedly opened the ledger and took a look briefly, but found nothing wrong with it.

"Tap-tap. Lisa." Ivy knocked on the door and called sweetly.

Lisa smiled and replied immediately, "Miss Carter."

"Lisa, this is the gift I have bought for you. I hope you'll like it." The gift Ivy gave her was a bottle of perfume.

Lisa smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Carter. I love it."

"That's great. I won't bother you for you have to check the accounts. Emily, auntie said you'd better check them yourself. She wants to ask you questions later. But if you don't understand at some points, you can ask me or Sister Me Dai. Lisa is very good at it." Ivy smiled at Emily and said.

Emily nodded awkwardly.

After Ivy left, she heaved a sigh. Watching Ivy's passionate face, it was hard for her to connect Ivy with the person who hurt her behind her back.

"You are close with Ivy!" Emily said.

Lisa said, "She is Harry's sister and admires Mr. Brent. Therefore, she always tries to please all people close to Mr. Brent. But there is one good point of her that no matter how much she dislikes someone, she can still smile at him. Look, she gives me a gift. In fact, she hates me very much."

"What? She hates you? Why?" Emily was curious.

Lisa smiled, blinked her eyes, and said, "The same reason as to why you hate me, but she didn't ask directly as you did. She just keeps guessing. It's the nature of human beings. That's how a lot of unnecessary things come into being because of people's guessing in their mind."

"So, do you mean that she's a woman of two sides? And she has a cruel heart under the cover of sugar-coated words?" Emily asked immediately.
