Chapter 215
"Mom, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to stay, it's that I really can't stay. What happened between me
and Franklin is a stain on him. If I stay here, it won't be good for me or my son. If you miss me, you can
go to my place, and it's fine for a long stay." Emily thought her mother was reluctant to let her go
because of her affection, so she immediately spoke out to comfort her mother.
Abigail looked embarrassed and said with difficulty, "I know, actually... It's Hunter. He's been relying on
Franklin to get to this stage for the past few years. He... He is about to participate in the vice
president's selection. He wants Franklin to help him."
Emily was stunned and blurted out, "He can ask Franklin for help if he wants to. Why do you tell me
this?"
Abigail was even more ashamed and lowered her head in shame.
Emily came to her senses and felt angry and amused. She said, "Did he ask you to come to me and let
me talk to Franklin?"
"Emily, mom knows it's hard for you." Abigail said in shame.
Emily also said nonchalantly, "Mom, you are indeed making it difficult for me, and extremely difficult, I
would say. It is impossible for me to talk to Franklin, not to mention that it doesn't work for me to find
him now. And even if it's useful, I wouldn't go to him. So you'd better tell Hunter these words, let him
find a way by himself. Don't bother me with these things again."
"Emily, mom is sorry for you." Abigail choked.
Emily frowned. If it was before, she would still feel that her mother lived a tough life and that she said
those words because she felt a little guilty to her. However, after all these years, she had more
experiences and mature ideas about many things. How could she not know her mother's true
intentions? Though she apologized to her like this, she only wanted to make Emily's heart go soft so
that she could agree to her request.
"Mom, if they were other kinds of things, I can try to help, but not this one. I'm already married. As you
can see, I have a child and a husband. While Franklin also has his own fiancée, we have no
relationships now. There can no longer be any involvement." Emily said in a serious tone.
Abigail sighed and looked at her grown-up daughter again. She knew that her little tricks were no
longer useful in front of her daughter.
"Emily, I see. I'll tell him. If you want to go... Just go! Don't come back if you're fine. Don't worry,
everything is fine here. I'll visit you when I'm free, so don't come back." Abigail said.
Emily nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, she stood up and said goodbye to her mother.
After returning to Joyce's place, James had already packed her luggage.
Joyce couldn't bear to part with her. She held her hand and said reluctantly, "Can't you stay a few more
days? You don't have to be in such a hurry! There are still many things we haven't talked about. By the
way, the flower shop hasn't been settled. In the beginning, you also paid out the money and had
shares. I have always kept the money for you and stored it in an account. "
Joyce quickly asked Sebastian to bring the card to Emily.
Emily said quickly, "I haven't helped you much in the past few years, so I don't have the nerve to take
the money. Take that money as if I lent it to you, and I don't want any shares."
"This is not possible. How can you change what we settled at the beginning? If you feel embarrassed, I
will give you a portion of the money for labor over the years so that you will not feel that you're taking
advantage. But we have to settle the accounts carefully. Maybe we need three to five days."
Emily didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said helplessly, "Joyce, you mean to let me stay!"
Joyce pursed her lips and said, "Can't you stay for another two days? You have to go back in such a
hurry?"
"Joyce, you know the plight. It's not that I'm in a hurry to go back, it's... It's that I can't stay any longer.
Who knows when that bastard would trouble me again? I should leave as soon as possible."
"Yes, let Emily and the others go! If you miss them, we'll arrange the things in the flower and then go to
find them in two days. If you want to stay a few more days, you can stay a few more days. Don't cause
them any trouble now," Sebastian also advised.
Joyce had no choice but to let go of her hand and watch Emily and James leave with tears in her eyes.
But she wasn't the only one who couldn't bear to say goodbye. Bryce also couldn't bear to part with
Deny. He kept holding Deny's hand and asking Emily when he could come back to see Deny again.
Emily didn't expect her son to be so attached to someone, so she had to coax him, "auntie will take
Deny to find us in two days. Don't be stingy and give your good things to sister Deny to play with then."
"Well, I won't be stingy." Bryce nodded at once.
Emily carried him into Sebastian's car and Sebastian drove them to the station.
James was coming by train, so he had to take the train back.
When they arrived at the station, it was not time to check-in. They then gathered together and said
some parting words.
"Emily, time's up. Let's go in!" James said to Emily.
Emily nodded and carried Bryce to follow James inside.
However, when she walked to the checkout to verify the ticket, she found that the ticket could not be
verified.
"What's going on?" Emily frowned and asked James.
James frowned and looked puzzled. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. I bought the tickets
from the official website. It should be okay."
"I'm sorry, please follow me here." The station staff said to Emily and James.
Emily and James followed him in confusion. Sebastian and Joyce didn't go either. Seeing that they
didn't enter, they came over to figure out the situation.
Emily shook her head, indicating that she didn't know what was going on, either.
The man took them into a room and left without saying a word.
Emily frowned and looked at James.
This was the first time James had encountered such a situation. The staff here did not explain to them,
so he did not know what had happened.
"Wait a minute. I'll call and ask." James said.
He was going to call George to ask. At least he was a government employee and should know
something about it.
But before he could take out his phone, the door of the small room opened again.
It was not the station staff who came in, but a man dressed in black who looked like a bodyguard.
"Is it Miss Johnson?" The man in black asked Emily.
Emily nodded and said, "Yes. Who are you? How do you know my name?"
"Hello, I'm Mr. Brent's bodyguard. Mr. Brent wants to see you." The man in black said.
When Emily heard "Mr. Brent", her face immediately turned pale, and her eyes obviously showed that Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
she was frightened.
Joyce and Sebastian were also stunned. They immediately said to the man in black, "Mr. Brent? What's
the matter? Isn't everything settled?"
"She won't go. Please tell Mr. Brent that we're leaving Lancaster. We won't see him again." James also
stood in front of Emily.
