Hello, Mr. Brent

Chapter 203

Three years later.

Emily brought Bryce back to Lancaster. After four years, she finally came back.

Of course, she didn't come back for Franklin this time. James was here to give a lecture, but he hadn't

acclimatized here and was hospitalized the next day. Although there were many people taking care of

him, Emily still worried about him. Therefore, she made up her mind and came here with Bryce.

Since James was a famous professor, it was natural that a good hospital was arranged for him.

Emily visited him with Bryce. She knocked on the door before entering.

James was stunned to see them and said, "How come you two are here?"

"I was afraid that you wouldn't be taken good care of, so I came with Bryce. How are you? Are you still

feeling bad?" Emily walked over and stroked his forehead naturally.

James was touched and shook his head. "I'm fine. It's just that I haven't acclimatized here. I'll be fine in

two days."

"Dad, Bryce misses you so much." Bryce rubbed his face against James' and said in a childish voice.

Bryce was his nickname, which was given by Emily. He had liked to pout from childhood, so he was

given the nickname Bryce.

James also stroked his head dotingly and said, "Dad misses you too! When dad is well, I'll take you

out, okay?"

"Great, great." Bryce clapped his tiny hands happily and exclaimed.

Emily pulled him away at once and said, "Dad is not feeling well. Don't disturb him. Play here on your

own. Be good, or I'll send you back to kindergarten."

When Bryce heard that he was going to be sent back to kindergarten, he stuck out his tongue

immediately and promised, "Bryce will be good."

After that, he took out his toys, curled up on the sofa and started to play with them.

Emily smiled and asked James, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."

"Don't bother. The hospital provides food."

"Based on your physical condition, it's better for you to have some millet porridge. The menu of the

hospital canteen isn't so thoughtful. When I came in, I saw a porridge shop outside. I'll go take a look."

Emily stood up as she spoke, told Bryce to behave and left.

James could not change her mind, so he could only lie on the bed and wait, but felt sweet inside.

Emily left the ward and walked towards the elevator. Just as she reached the corner, she heard

someone calling her suddenly.

"Emily?"

The interrogative tone in his voice indicated that he seemed to be uncertain.

Emily shuddered. In fact, she had assumed that she would meet some old acquaintances when she

came back this time. Four years had passed, and she didn't want to hide from people all along.

Franklin and Avery might have long got married! There was no point in hiding from them, but she didn't

expect to meet anyone so soon.

She turned her head around stiffly and saw a doctor in a white coat walking towards her anxiously.

"Emily, it's really you!" The man said in surprise.

Emily frowned slightly and looked at him in astonishment.

The man said immediately, "Don't you remember me? I'm Hunter, your mother's... husband."

"It's you. You work in this hospital?" Emily remembered and asked with an awkward smile at once.

It wasn't that she didn't remember Hunter, but that Hunter looked so different from what he had looked

like four years ago. At that time, he had used be a gentle boy. It didn't occur to her that he should have

become a mature and charming man in four years.

Not only did he look different, but his temperament had also changed a lot.

"I thought I was wrong, but I didn't expect it to be you. How come you are here? Where have you been

for the past four years? You don't even know that your mother has been looking for you for a long time

and hasn't heard from you. Why are you here all of a sudden?" Hunter asked many questions in one

breath.

Emily smiled bitterly. She didn't know how to answer him, so could only reply embarrassedly, "It's a

long story. Are you and my mother okay? When I left, my mother said that she was pregnant, and now

the child must be more than four years old! Do you still live in the same place? I still have something to

do now and have to get some porridge for a patient. When I'm free, I'll go see her."

Hunter looked embarrassed. He gave an awkward smile, not knowing what to say.

Hearing that she still had something else to do, he let her go at once. It was when Emily left that he

reacted.

He took out his phone immediately and called Franklin's assistant, Jason. When Jason answered the

phone, he said urgently that he had something to tell Mr. Brent.

Franklin answered the phone, and Hunter said in haste, "Mr. Brent, I saw Emily. She's in our hospital.

She seems to be taking care of a patient. Do you want to come over and take a look?"

Franklin loosened his grip on the phone and it fell to the ground.

Jason saw it and asked surprisingly, "Mr. Brent, what's wrong?"

Franklin shook his head and said in a low voice, "Get the car ready, to the Central Hospital."

Emily bought James a portion of millet porridge and some snacks for Bryce, in case he got bored and

made trouble.

When she got back, she did not see Hunter again. Emily breathed a sigh of relief.

She did not expect that the first person she would see was Hunter.

Seeing that Hunter looked so different from before, she felt relieved and worried at the same time. She

had no idea how her mother was right now, or if Hunter had still been nice to her mother as always.

"What? Did something happen?" When Emily fed the porridge to James, James saw her anxious face

and asked in surprise.

Emily came to her sense and shook her head, "Nothing, it's just that I met an acquaintance."

"You know anyone in Lancaster?" James asked in surprise.

Emily had never told him anything about her past. She lowered her eyes and said awkwardly, "My

mother is here. I met her current husband just now, so we had a little chat."

"Then we should pay them a visit! When I get better, I'll go with you." James said happily.

Emily nodded, not wanting to refuse James' kindness.

When James finished eating, Emily went out to wash the lunch box.

The moment she went out, she saw a man standing at the door of their ward in a daze. When he saw

her coming out, his eyes turned cold instantly.

Emily was startled and the lunch box in her hand fell to the ground.

"Fran... Franklin?" Emily never expected to meet Franklin so soon.

Or rather, Franklin would come over suddenly.

Franklin opened his mouth but did not say a word.

He clenched his fists so hard to prevent himself from doing anything rash. He was afraid that he would

be unable to restrain himself and rush over to strangle the woman in front of him.

She looked different in four years.

Her long hair had turned into short pear hair, but it made her more beautiful. She seemed to have been

living a good life in the past four years, showing no trace of hardship brought by life. Instead, she Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

looked more mature than before.

She had had a good life.

Franklin sneered and slowly loosened his fists, giving a sarcastic cold smile.

"Franklin."

Emily didn't expect that Franklin would stand here and stare at her for a long time, and leave without

saying a word. She called out eagerly, but Franklin did not stop at all and left without looking back.

Emily pursed her lips painfully, as if her heart had been stabbed by a sharp dagger, which made her

bleed in pain.

"You don't even want to greet me. Am I really just a stranger to you?"
