Hello, Mr. Brent

She phoned Jason as soon as she walked out of the café,

Jason was briefing Franklin on the sales date when the phone rang. He took it out from his pocket to hang it up but hesitated when he noticed the caller ID.

Franklin frowned. He didn't like to be disturbed at work. Just as he was about to remind Jason, Jason showed him the phone, "Mr. Brent, it's Miss Johnson."

Franklin was surprised as well, but his voice was calm, "Pick it up.” Jason smiled and nodded. He swiped the green button and answered, "Hello, Miss Johnson, this is Jason.”

"Jason, could you please help me make an appointment with Mr. Brent? I have something to talk to him,” Emily said nervously.

She wasn't sure if Franklin would hate her because she talked to him rudely the last time.

"Hmm... wait a sec.” Jason covered the microphone and said to Franklin, "Mr. Brent, Miss Johnson wants to meet you. She has something to talk about with you.”

Franklin was stunned happily, a slight smile curled on his lips.

But when he thought of Emily's attitude towards him, he felt angry. "Tell her that I'm busy. Well, tell her that I'm going to attend a business gathering tonight. After that, I will fly to New York for business negotiations and come back one month later.” Franklin told Jason Jason nodded to show Franklin that he got the message. He picked up the phone again, "Miss Johnson, sorry to keep you waiting. Mr. Brent will leave for New York early tomorrow morning. He will be there for one month. He's quite busy recently.”

"What? One month?" Emily exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, but... Mr. Brent is going to attend a business gathering tonight,” Jason reminded her tactfully.

"I see. Thank you." Emily was also smart and immediately understood what Jason meant.

Jason smiled, “I'll send you the address right away."

"Thank you." Emily thanked him again and hung up.

Before Long, Emily's phone rang. It was a message from Jason.

It's the address of the gathering. It's taken place in a private villa.

She found the address familiar and immediately called her manager to ask about it

Sure enough, it was a villa that her manager sold personally. At that time, she bragged to them about how generous this client was, and she was invited to have dinner and get nice presents.

"Ma'am, I heard there's a business gathering today. I want to go. Can you help me get in?" Emily begged obsequiously.

"What? Do you want to attend the gathering? I'll go myself if I can get an invitation. I can do nothing about it.” The manager screamed.

Emily giggled, "Ma'am, I know you can. Help me. Please~Thank you." "All right, all right, I'll check it out. But what do you want to do? If something good happens, you can't forget me in the future.” The manager could not stand her begging and finally promised her.

"Don't worry! I won't forget your great kindness.” Emily thanked her immediately.

Taking the information provided by the manager, she set off quickly. Finally, she finished everything before sunset and borrowed an invitation from someone who would not go to the party.

She was pregnant and couldn't wear high heels. So she wore flats with a white tulle flowery princess skirt. Her hair was highly curled up, revealing her long neck, which made her more elegant and breath- taking.

She was 5.57 inches tall, so she didn't look short without wearing high heels even if she stood in crowds.

As soon as she got in, she attracted the eyes of many men. Beautiful women were always the targets of successful men in parties. Some of them came over to talk to her, but Emily was so focused on Franklin that she didn't have the time to do that.

But after looking around, she didn't see Franklin.

Emily's heart was beating fast. He hadn't come yet?

It would be terrible if he didn't come.

"Emily?"

Iris wore a fishtail dress with her back exposed and stood with Lucas to greet others. Holding a glass of wine in her hand, she smiled and talked gently with other girls, looking like an elegant lady.

She was very satisfied with her current life, her dream life.

But when she turned around and saw Emily here, she couldn't help but exclaim.

Lucas looked at Emily when he heard her voice. Iris was beautiful, but she looked more sophisticated than Emily, far from being as graceful and refined as Emily.

"What are you doing?" Iris grabbed Lucas’ arm and asked eagerly. Lucas shrugged her off and said coldly, "Of course, I'm going to say hello. She is your beloved sister.”

Iris gritted her teeth. He knew that she was not on good terms with Emily, but he deliberately mocked her.

"Mr. Wright, long time no see.” At that moment, a middle-aged man came over with a glass of wine and greeted Lucas.

Lucas wanted to go to Emily, but now he had to stop talking with him. Iris sneered, glanced at Emily, and walked towards her while Lucas was not paying attention.

A servant walked past Emily. Iris pretended not to be careless and stumbled on the servant.

The servant was startled, and the wine on the tray in his hand slanted, splashing all over Emily.

Emily did not expect it at all. She was so frightened that she quickly backed off. She crashed into something and fell.

She subconsciously covered her stomach with her hands protectively for fear of hurting the child.

Luckily, she did not fall down but fell into the arms of a man.

Emily was so freaked out that she lay in the man's arms for a long time without any reaction.

The man frowned, patted her cheek, and asked in a panic, "Hey, are you okay? What's wrong?"

Emily came to herself and opened her eyes. The man was Franklin. He saved her again

"How... could it be you?" Emily muttered.

Franklin helped her up and snorted, "Who else do you think it is? Are you a fool? You can't walk without falling down?"

"I..." Emily wanted to argue.

The servant quickly bowed and apologized to Emily, "I'm sorry, Miss. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I'm sorry."

Emily sighed and said slowly, "It's okay. It's just an accident.”

"Hmph." A cold hum came from behind the servant.

Emily looked up and found Iris standing right behind the servant.

She immediately understood what was going on. No wonder the experienced servant made such a silly mistake. It must be Iris who played the trick.

"What's wrong? What happened?” A man in a white suit came over and asked gently.

Someone reported to him immediately. He looked at Emily and said, "Miss, I'm really sorry. It's my fault that you come to this at my party. I'll ask someone to take you to change your clothes immediately.”

She phoned Jason as soon as she walked out of the café,
