mily, with a sullen face, asked Dr. Lee to examine her. In fact, one of them was enough to confirm that it was a mosquito bite. But in order to prove her innocence, she still asked Dr. Lee to check several.
"I have a few more on me," said Emily.
Dr. Lee quickly waved his hand and said, "There's no need to check again. I can confirm that it was a mosquito bite. Well, this mosquito is rare, and different mosquitoes can bite different lumps."
"Now does this prove my innocence?" Emily raised her eyebrows and asked Franklin.
Franklin said to Dr. Lee, "Dr. Lee, please. I will ask Jason to take you back."
"No, no, Mr. Brent, there's no need. I can go back by myself." Dr. Lee said quickly.
So Dr. Lee left the medicine for the mosquito bites and went out.
As soon as Dr. Lee left, Emily jumped out of bed and rushed to Franklin, "Well, you didn't believe me before! Or you wouldn't have called the doctor."
Seeing this, Jason and Lisa sensibly hurried away and closed the door for them.
Franklin looked at her coldly and said, "In that case, I chose to believe you and I didn't embarrass you."
"Oh, then I have to thank you?" Emily laughed in anger, but her heart was in agony.
Now she was so sad. The happiness that Franklin's trust brought to her was now totally changed into the sadness that now she experienced.
He said that he didn't embarrass her? In fact, he just didn't embarrass himself. And how could he say these words so seriously?
"Why are you alone with Alan?" Franklin questioned.
Emily said, "Why, I don't even have the right to be alone with a man? There are so many women around you, and your secretarial team has more than a dozen beautiful women. Why don't you keep your distance from women first?"
"I have women around because I have a job and I can take care of myself. But what about you? How can you put my mind at ease, being alone with a man for hours, with your clothes off?" Franklin said angrily.
He felt uncomfortable at the thought of her spending hours with Alan and longed to take her for a good wash.
Emily flushed with anger and pointed at him, "Franklin, Don't go too far. Why don't you find out who locked us in there on purpose? Why don't you experience for yourself how hot it is to be shut in? I just took my coat off. You can't imagine how hot it was. I was dying from the heat. My head was dizzy and I didn't pay attention to these things."
"Then why did you go in with Alan?"
"I was doing it for the account book, to finish your mother's task?"
"Do you remember that I told you not to have anything to do with Alan in the future? Did you listen to me or not? Don't you want to know who locked you in? I don't think we need to check it at all. It was probably locked by Alan himself."
"Oh, don't vilify him." Emily said angrily, "He is poor enough, but you still slandered him. You are also the descendants of the Brents, you are brothers. Have you ever thought if the person born later is you, you are what he is now?"
"Did he tell you that?" Franklin asked coldly.
Emily, thinking that Franklin might be angry with Alan, explained hurriedly, "Of course not. I heard it from someone else."
"Heh." Franklin laughed angrily at her. After laughing, his expression became even colder, "You probably don't know! This is taboo in his family, and no one dares to discuss it in private and no one dares to tell you. He may be the only one who would say that. Besides what he told you, you lied to me just to hide it for him, Emily, I'm surprised at you."
When Emily was exposed to the lie, she said angrily, "Yes, I lied to you. He did tell me. So what? Isn't it true? Do you know what is the feeling between brothers?"
"I don't know. Since you're so protective of him, go find him and get out of here." Franklin finally got angry, pointing at the door, and roared at Emily.
