Hello, Mr. Brent

Chapter 210

Franklin sat expressionless in his office. On the table was Jason's investigation of Emily's situation over

the past four years. These included Emily's current husband, James, and Emily and James' son, Bryce.

But Franklin had never opened it, and that was why he didn't know who James was when he saw him.

But now, he had the urge to open it.

He wanted to know what had happened to her in the past four years and what kind of life she had lived.

"Boss, Miss Lewis is here." The secretary knocked on the door and came in to report to Franklin.

Franklin's hand, which had just been placed on the folder, seemed to have been scalded and

immediately retracted. He said with a grim face, "Let her in!"

The secretary nodded.

After the secretary left, Franklin sighed and put the folder away on the bottom drawer of the desk and

locked it.

He didn't need to know all the things. He just wanted to know how that woman cheated on him.

"Franklin, are you busy now? Will I disturb you?" Avery asked with a smile when she came in.

Franklin said expressionlessly, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly! Otherwise, you will

waste more time."

Avery smiled as if she had been used to his indifference.

She sat down opposite him and said, "Well, I heard that Miss Johnson is back. I don't know if it's true."

"You heard from Harry, right? I didn't expect him to be so gossipy and even told you that." Franklin

snorted.

Avery said with a smile, "He's doing it for our own good. Everything between you and Emily is over. But

now, something happened again, and it's said that Emily is married and her husband is still in

Lancaster. If you still hold on to what happened four years ago, it's easy to be misunderstood."

"Let it be. I don't care whether others misunderstand me or not." Franklin said.

Avery's face stiffened. She pursed her lips and looked at him, "So, aren't you afraid that others will

misunderstand that you're still in love with Emily?"

"Heh, do you think I will put someone in jail if I still have feelings for her?" Franklin sneered.

Avery, "..."

That was right, what Franklin said made sense. If he really couldn't let go of Emily, he wouldn't do

anything to hurt Emily.

"If that's the case, then you should withdraw the case and let her go! It's been four years, and what

should have gone is over. Why do you have to get her into trouble?" Avery advised.

Franklin said with calm eyes, "But it's not over for me. My resentment of her won't fade by time."

Avery frowned and smiled bitterly after a while before asking, "Franklin, do you still hate what

happened back then, hate all of us?"

"No. You can go out first! I'm busy." Franklin suddenly ordered her to leave.

Avery smiled bitterly, as he always behaved like this when she talked about this.

"Okay. I'll go first." Avery stood up and left.

When she went out and saw Lisa coming to deliver the documents, she hesitated for a moment and

said to her, "Lisa, long time no see." Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Lisa saw her and hurriedly smiled and greeted, "Miss Lewis, long time no see. Are you here for Mr.

Brent?"

"Yes, it's been settled." Avery smiled and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. We talked about Emily."

"Em...Emily? Miss Johnson?" Lisa said in surprise.

"Why, don't you know?" Avery asked in surprise.

Lisa shook her head, "I don't know. When did you hear about Miss Johnson?"

"Emily is back, and... And was sent to prison by Franklin. This should be done by Jason. I thought he

would tell you according to your relationship," Avery sighed.

Lisa's mind went blank and her face blushed.

Avery smiled and said, "Since you don't know, forget it. I'll go first. We'll have coffee next time."

"Goodbye, Miss Lewis." Lisa said goodbye to Avery with a stiff face.

As soon as Avery left, she turned around and walked quickly to Jason's office.

"What's wrong?"

Lisa slammed the door of Jason's office open. Jason was shocked and stood up and ask.

Lisa asked with a grim face, "Jason, did you already know about Emily's going back? Why didn't you

tell me?"

Jason's face stiffened and he smiled awkwardly, "You know it. Who told you that?"

"I see! Why didn't you tell me? Did Mr. Brent forbid you to tell me?" Lisa guessed.

Jason scratched his head and said awkwardly, "Lisa, don't be angry. Mr. Brent...Mr. Brent did tell me

that so I can't disobey him! I can't go against his words."

Lisa smiled bitterly and said, "Was Mr. Brent wary of me to this level? I had no choice but to do what

happened back then. I have already explained to him, why did he still refuse to believe me."

Lisa couldn't help but cry as she spoke, covering her face and sobbing.

Jason was extremely anxious when he saw that she was crying. He wanted to reach out and hug her,

but he didn't dare. He could only hurry around her.

"Lisa, stop crying. I feel heartbroken to see you crying. It's weird for a strong person like you to

suddenly cry. Mr. Brent still believes you, but... It's just that what happened four years ago hit him too

hard. He can't make a second mistake."

"What did the 'second mistake' mean? I heard from Avery that Mr. Brent put Miss Johnson in prison.

How could he put Miss Johnson in prison?" Lisa let go of her hand and asked with tears in her eyes.

Jason hurried to take tissues to wipe her eyes. After wiping the tears on her face, he said, "I do not

know what Mr. Brent is thinking, anyway, Mr. Brent instructed me to do so. What does he intend to do is

unclear. He also let me investigate the life of Miss Johnson these four years, and the information was

given to him, but he did not say anything. Although Miss Johnson is now in prison, she also did not

suffer. Mr. Brent asked me to instruct the people there to treat her well, offered her the best food and

clothing, and let her stay in a single room."

"Tell me, what exactly does Mr. Brent mean?" Lisa was also confused when she heard this and could

not help but mutter.

Jason sighed and said, "Who knows? Mr. Brent is deep in thought. We just have to do our work well.

Don't ask about things that shouldn't be asked."

"But I still feel guilty about Miss Johnson. I want to see her," Lisa said.

Jason said quickly, "Not now. Mr. Brent forbade anyone from visiting. I don't know how someone saw

her. Mr. Brent is angry about this, and he specifically told me not to let anyone see her again. If you see

her now, Mr. Brent will be even angrier if he finds out!"

"I'll see her secretly and Mr. Brent won't know it. As long as you don't say it, how would he know? Will

you betray me?" Lisa asked with a slanted eye.

Jason, "..."

He was speechless for a moment. How could he betray her?
