Hello, Mr. Brent

Chapter 207



James met Emily. When Emily saw him, she asked anxiously, "Why are you here? Aren't you still in hospitalization? Why are you discharged before you get better?”

James said anxiously, "How can I be in the mood to stay in the hospital when you're like this? Tell me what's going on quickly. I asked someone. It was Franklin who manipulated this from behind. He's the richest man in Lancaster, the president of the The Brent Group. How did you offend him?"

When Emily heard this, she gritted her teeth and said with a dark face, "I really didn't expect him to be such a person. He's such a jerk." "Emily, stop cursing and tell me how did you offend him first. If it is about some trifle things, I'll find someone to make you two reconciled with each other. Apologize to him first and ask him to let you out.” "You mustn't go to find him." Emily said nervously.

James frowned.

Emily pursed her lips and said, "You don't have to worry about this. How's Bryce? Is he okay? Send him back to Dover quickly. Take him with you! Don't worry about me. I want to see what he will do to me." James frowned and looked at her thoughtfully.

He was a smart man, and he knew Emily so well. He couldn't help but frown and ask, "Is Bryce... his child? You gave Bryce the name, Bryce, because of him?"

Emily's face turned pale and she lowered her head and pursed her lips. James smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that my guess is true. In that case, why are you... If he knew Bryce's lot, he might forgive you.” "James, he's engaged. I didn't know he was engaged until I said that I was going to look for him back then. And that woman is his childhood sweetheart. She is the one that he has been waiting for. So... James, I beg you. Leave me one last bit of dignity. No matter what, don't let anyone know Bryce's lot." Emily pleaded.

"But..."

"James, I beg you." Emily pleaded again.

James sighed. Emily never begged him even in her most difficult time. But now she begged him again and again. So, how could he not say yes?

"Well, I promise you I won't tell anyone about Bryce's lot. Bryce is my son, and he will always be my son.”

"Thank you, James." Emily thanked him.

James said, "But I have to find a way to save you. What happened between you and him exactly. It can even make him do this to you.” James really couldn't figure it out. Since Bryce was Franklin's son and Emily had once looked forward to that with a happy face, it indicated that the two of them must have feelings for each other in the past. And even if their relationship was over, they would not be turned into enemies.

But Emily would not say anything more even if he continued asking. She only told him that they had been married before. Although there was no wedding, they had actually got a marriage certificate.

James became even more curious. When he wanted to ask again, the prison guard came over and asked him to leave.

He was afraid that things would be made difficult for George, so he had to say goodbye to Emily first. He asked Emily to rest reassured and he would find a way to save her.

However, Emily's life inside was not bad, and this should have been specifically instructed by Franklin. Except for the lack of freedom, her life was good.

When James saw George, he just told George about Emily's previous relationship with Franklin.

George was surprised after hearing that, "Is she that Emily?"

"Her name isn't Emily now. I don't know her name in the past was Emily. I always call her Emily." James said.

George exclaimed, "Brother, how did you find such a... I really know a little about Emily. Back then, Franklin fought against the whole Family for her, and he pissed his mother, Mrs. Brent, off. Everyone was curious about this woman who suddenly appeared, but Franklin did what he wanted do. Besides not having a wedding, he spoiled her so much. But he didn't expect...”

"In that case, why does he do this to her now?" James asked in confusion.

George shook his head and said, "I don't know. Rich people are always unpredictable. I hear that his childhood sweetheart Avery is back. She is the one who is engaged to him now. He had a car accident and Emily was missing. There was news that she was conspiring with outsiders to murder Franklin. Anyway, the Brent Family was in charge of everything since she was missing. There were wanted warrants during that time, but the warrants only existed in Lancaster. Then Franklin was discharged from the hospital, and this matter was over. He got engaged to that childhood sweetheart very soon, and Emily was nowhere to be found since then."

"Then according to your view, what does Franklin mean by putting Emily in prison now? Is there any way to make them reconciled with each other?" James asked again.

George frowned and thought for a moment, "I can't be the one to help them get reconciled. I'm nobody and don't have much power. Franklin may not take me seriously. Well, I have a way to pave the way for you. Go find that person. Maybe you can meet Franklin and talk to him." "Okay, George. Then, I'll trouble you." James said gratefully.

George said, "Don’t say those holiday words. I feel guilty for not helping anything. I'm just contacting someone. I hope it will work." After that, he took out his cell phone and began to make phone calls. He called several times before settling the matter.

"What a coincidence. A friend of mine is a friend of Harry, the president of the Carters Group, and then my friend told Harry about it. Harry and Franklin are childhood friends. You go to him and ask him to take you to Franklin. You should be able to meet with Franklin."

"Okay, where's this Harry? I'll go see him." James said immediately. George told James Harry's address, and James went there immediately. Harry also heard that thing briefly from his friend. He was surprised that Emily had returned.

When he saw James, he was even more surprised. He looked at James and said with a smile, "Professor An, you don't remember me, do you? We met before.”

James looked at him carefully and suddenly he recalled something. He said, "It's you. You're Mr. Carters!"

James gave a speech at a university in the past and ate with the school leaders after the speech. Harry was there, and the school leaders introduced them to each other. But it had been so long that James forgot Harry's name, but he still remembered that there was a man like Harry. After all, it was rare to see a young and handsome businessman like Harry.

They had a good chat at that time. Harry was a gentle person, and James happened to be the same. Moreover, Harry did not have that kind of utilitarian motives like businessmen. This was highly appreciated by James.

Harry also admired James, but the two of them got parted later on and they did not leave each other any way of contact. He did not expect to meet James again in this situation.
