Hello, Mr. Brent

Chapter 227



Emily left Franklin's house angrily. Although Franklin agreed to let her see the child, he arranged two bodyguards for her, saying that he was afraid that she would run away again.

Emily gritted her teeth in anger but could do nothing about it.

When she arrived at Joyce's house, she asked the two bodyguards to wait for her at the door.

"Miss Johnson, Mr. Brent told us not to leave you at any time."

"What, do you have to follow me even if I go to the bathroom?" Emily snorted coldly.

They blushed and immediately lowered their heads and said, "Of course not."

"Since you don't have the guts, just guard the door. There's only one door here, and we're on the twelfth floor. Where can I run to?" Emily scolded angrily.

The two bodyguards hung their heads even lower and had to stand at the door.

When Joyce opened the door and saw the two of them, she was surprised. As soon as Emily entered, she asked curiously, "Who are they?"

"The bodyguards Franklin sent for me. He is actually watching me, afraid that I would run away again.” Emily said angrily.

Joyce curled her lips and asked Emily curiously, "It seems that he still has feelings for you. Then what is he going to do with Avery?"

Emily snorted coldly, "What else can he do? The wedding date doesn't change, and he even asked me to be the bridesmaid."

"Ah?" Joyce was stunned. She didn't expect this.

Emily gritted her teeth and said, "I think he just wants to humiliate me. I didn't want to leave when I left. Why should he vent all his anger on me?"

"Okay, okay, don't get mad. James’ problem has been solved anyway. Or you can just leave him to save yourself from getting angry.” Joyce comforted her.

Emily gritted her teeth and thought that she really wanted to leave him, but could she?

"Well, let's talk about it later! Where are Bryce and Deny? Did Sebastian take them out to play?" Emily asked quickly when she saw that neither the two children nor Sebastian was at home.

Joyce said, "Yes, they went out to play. I've already called them and they'll be back soon.”

"Joyce, Bryce might have to stay at your house for a while longer. Sorry for the trouble," Emily said, "but I don't want him to live with me in Franklin's house. I don't want him to know about my relationship with Franklin."

Joyce said, "You can rest assured that Bryce is safe with me. It actually saves me a lot of effort to have him here. He's so obedient and can help me look after Deny. I'm much more relaxed than before.”

"Thank you, Joyce. But I also know what this child is like. If he's disobedient, just help me educate him."

"Well, don't worry! He's very obedient. But Emily, are you really not going to let James raise him? He didn't fight for custody of the child?" Joyce asked curiously.

It wasn't that she didn't want to continue taking care of Bryce. It was just that she felt very strange.

According to her observation, James was also very fond of the child. However, when James divorced Emily, he did not mention custody. Knowing that it was not convenient for Emily to take care of the child, he still gave him to her and would rather let someone else help to take care of him, which was not reasonable.

These days, she and Sebastian had also thought about this. Looking at Bryce's appearance, they always felt that it had nothing to do with James. Although nor did he look like Emily, the two had something in common, and his brows and eyes were similar to Franklin's, so they were suspicious.

Unexpectedly, when she said that, Emily frowned and pursed her lips. Joyce immediately said, "Emily, we're close. Don't hide anything from me."

Emily sighed and said, "Let me tell you the truth! This child is not James’, but mine and Franklin's."

"Ah?" Joyce was surprised.

Emily also gritted her teeth when she mentioned this, "I saw two doctors who said I was infertile, which made me confess to Franklin, and then I went to live in the villa on the mountain. I didn't expect to find out that I was pregnant soon after I left. I only knew about Franklin's engagement on the way back. At that time, my physical condition was not suitable for a long journey. After the child was born, I planned to come back once, but I heard that Franklin and Avery had a deep relationship. That's why we're in this situation.”

"Then tell Franklin that Bryce is his child.” Joyce said anxiously.

Emily said angrily, "I told him before. I asked him if he believed that Bryce was his son. He actually said that I lied to him. He said that I was the one who told him that I was infertile, and now I lied to him for someone else.”

"Then explain to him."

"Why should I explain to him? He's getting married, and he doesn't believe me. Why don't you let me send Bryce to take a paternity test for him?" Emily said angrily.

Joyce was speechless and knew that Emily was enraged.

But as a woman, she was really connected to her. If Sebastian didn't believe that Deny was his daughter, she would also make Deny disown him out of spite for the rest of her life.

“It's all about the doctor's wrong diagnosis. I'll go and find out what was going on tomorrow." Joyce said.

Emily nodded. She also wanted to know what had been going on.

If it was just one hospital that misdiagnosed, it would be fine. But both doctors from two different hospitals misdiagnosed, the probability was too high.

As they spoke, Sebastian came back with the two children.

As soon as Bryce saw Emily, he jumped over and hugged her, "Mom, I miss you so much. Where's dad? Why didn't dad come back with you?" Emily touched his head in pain, not knowing how to explain it to him. After a while, he said, "Dad has to work. He's very busy. He can't come over for the time being."

"Then when are we going back?" Bryce asked again.

"We... Is it not good for Bryce to stay with auntie?" Emily changed the subject and asked with a smile.

Bryce nodded and said, "Yes, it's good.”

"Since it's good, stay at auntie's house first. We'll talk about leaving later. You have to be a good boy at auntie's house.” Emily touched his head lovingly.

Bryce nodded obediently and did not say anything more.

Sebastian heard from Joyce that Bryce would stay in their house and also gave his promise. He said to Emily, "You can rest assured. The child is fine in our house. Don't worry."

Emily said gratefully, "I've caused you and Joyce so much trouble that I feel so sorry. Don't think about me for the income share of the florist. Take this money, too. Don't worry about me. There's no way I would starve to death as I stay with a big gold mine."

Emily returned the bank card that Joyce had given her to Joyce, giving the florist to Joyce completely.

Joyce said quickly, "How can you do this? We agreed that..."

"Joyce, if you decline my offer again, I will be angry.” Emily said with a straight face.

Sebastian patted Joyce's hand and asked her to take it first. He kept the two children away and said to Emily, "Emily, was it because Franklin threatened you with us too that you had to agree to his unreasonable demands?"
