Chapter 53
It wasn't until Lucas called that the others saw Emily's appearance and revealed a surprised look.
Iris, however, said to Lucas disagreeably, "Lucas, you are so nosy."
Lucas looked embarrassed.
Mrs. Brent coughed lightly and asked Emily, "How come you look like this?"
"I ran into a mugger today and got a little hurt. May I ask what you came over for?" Emily asked.
Mrs. Brent snorted and said, "Oh, what a sad story! I don't want to add to the misfortunes of you who is
already unfortunate, but..."
"Mrs. Brent, maybe she guessed that you were coming over and made a ruse of self-injury," Iris said.
Mrs. Brent frowned and then nodded, "That's right, for such a woman who even dared to fake a
pregnancy, what else can't she do? Emily, I brought your parents here today to take you away. A bitch
like you doesn't deserve to stay in my family."
"Mrs. Brent, I am really ashamed to have such a rebellious daughter. We'll take her away now, sorry for
causing you trouble." Elena hurriedly said with a face of shame, secretly giving Anthony a wink.
Anthony walked over to Emily, grabbed Joyce's wheelchair, and said, "Emily, you really let me down. I'll
take you home now."
"Hey, what are you doing? Let her go." Joyce shouted.
Elena rushed over to stop her and said, "This is our family's affairs, not your business. Don't interfere."
Emily was disabled and could only watch as Anthony grabbed her wheelchair and berated Joyce.
"Steward, come and help me." Emily was furious, so she had to call the housekeeper over.
"Let me see who dares to come." Mrs. Brent was here, so how could the subordinates of the Brents
dare to act rashly.
Now, Emily was in a lonely fight and could only be pushed away by Anthony.
"Anthony, let me go. Now you come and pretend to be my father, don't you have any shame?"
"What an unfilial daughter. Does anyone speak to their own father like that?" Anthony scolded angrily.
Mrs. Brent snorted coldly, "Look, how can such an uneducated woman deserve to be my daughter-in-
law?"
"Joyce, hurry up and call Franklin." Emily was flustered. Seeing that she was about to be pushed out,
she had to say this to Joyce.
"Stop her, kick her out! Can anyone act wild here?" Mrs. Brent scolded.
Joyce couldn't resist the servants and was pushed out. She couldn't even take care of herself, so how
could she help Emily?
At the moment when Anthony was just pushing Emily out, Franklin came back. He stared at Anthony
and coldly asked, "Where do you want to take her to?"
Anthony was afraid and couldn't help but let go of his hand.
Emily's wheelchair slid uncontrollably to the side. Fortunately, Franklin was quick to pull it and secure it.
He bent down to pick up Emily and carried her back to the hall.
Elena and Iris were about to leave when they suddenly saw Franklin returning with Emily in his arms
and were taken aback.
Franklin didn't even look at them. He put Emily on the sofa, and then asked the other shocked people
in the living room, "How dare you be so reckless in my house? Who gave you the guts?"
The Johnsons were almost scared to death, and Lucas was even more scared of Franklin.
Last time because of Emily, Franklin reproached him in public at the company and punished him with a
month of hard labor, which was simply unbearable.
So much so that when he saw Franklin now, he recalled that month of suffering and couldn't help but
get weak in the legs.
Only Mrs. Brent calmly said, "Son, you came back just in time, I was just about to tell you. This woman,
Emily, must not stay in our family, so I brought her parents here to take her away."
"Huh, where are my parents? If you bring my real parents here, I'll go." Emily said angrily.
Mrs. Brent scowled and pointed to Emily. "Look at you," she scolded, "How can you be the daughter-in-
law of the Brents if you don't even recognize your own parents?"
"Mother, I think you've forgotten again." Franklin said coldly, "Whether she is worthy of being the
daughter-in-law of the Brents is not up to others, but me. I like her style, but anyone who doesn't like
her can choose to leave her alone."
"Son, are you crazy, how can you say such a thing?" Mrs. Brent said in shock.
Franklin snorted coldly, "Aren't you my mother? Don't you even know me about this?"
Mrs. Brent's face stiffened. She was so angry that her face turned red.
Iris gritted her teeth, stood out, and said, "Mr. Brent, there is one thing that I think you don't know yet."
"What is it?" Franklin didn't want to talk to her, but he wanted to see what she was up to.
Iris said, "My Emily was originally in a relationship with Lucas. But Lucas suddenly got together with me
was not because he abandoned her, but because he had no choice."
"Iris, shut up," Emily shouted in anger.
"Sis, since you can do it, don't you dare to admit it?" Iris thought that Emily was stopping her because
she was afraid that she would say it.
Mrs. Brent said at once, "Say it now, what happened?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Because she came home with marks all over her and was found by Lucas, she must have been with
other men, so Lucas broke up with her in anger," Iris said.
Mrs. Brent was shocked and looked at Lucas, asking, "Lucas, is it true?"
Lucas nodded awkwardly.
Mrs. Brent took two steps backward; the maid behind her held her up.
She shook her head and said, "Shame on you, you're really too much. Hooked up with other men,
pretended to be pregnant, this kind of shameless woman is really capable of anything. I've seen it all.
Franklin, did you hear that? You can't be fooled by her again. I'm afraid that even her injury today is her
trick, just to gain your sympathy."
"So why don't you ask, who is that man with her?" Franklin said coldly.
Emily was so angry that her eyes were filled with tears. No matter what the outcome of that incident, it
was her pain. Now being exposed in public was the same as sprinkling salt on her scars.
"I think I should know. I saw her with a man the other day, and I took the picture." Iris proudly took out
the photo as fast as she could.
Franklin knew about the photo, but Emily didn't know, nor did she know who the man in the photo was.
Stretching the neck to look upward, she could see nothing.
Mrs. Brent looked at it and snorted again, "Franklin, do you see that? Why do you still keep such a
shameless woman? why don't you hurry up and throw her out?"
