Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 99

"Wait, what did you say?" Emily said immediately.

Harry looked at her in surprise.

Emily immediately said anxiously, "What do you mean by harming Alan? What's wrong with Alan?"

"You don't know?" Harry looked at her surprisingly.

Emily said, "What do I know? I was taken away from the villa that day by Franklin. I have no idea what happened to Alan."

"But why did you quarrel with Franklin? I thought it was because of Alan," Harry said.

Emily shook her head and said, "It has nothing to do with Alan. No, it has something to do with him, but it doesn't matter much. Anyway, we had a quarrel. Tell me what happened to Alan first. What's wrong with him?"

"Alas." Harry sighed and said, "Alan's situation in the Brents is already very awkward, and Franklin has never liked him. Now he had the affair with you, so Franklin is even more dissatisfied with him. He worked for Franklin's sister to live a life before, but the matter was so severe that his eldest sister fired him in a fit of anger and refused to let him go back. Anyway, he was already an adult and it was a great kindness of Franklin's sister to raise him up. Now no one else dared to contact him anymore, and Franklin even made him kneel at the entrance of The Brents' ancestral hall. He had been kneeling for half a day."

"What? That's too much. How can he treat him like that?" Said Emily angrily.

Harry said, "This is a family matter of the Brents. You'd better not to step in. In fact, it's his fault. He shouldn't have been so close to you."

"Is that why he's going to be treated unfairly? No, I'm going to Franklin. I'm going to reason with him." Emily got up angrily.

Harry said quickly, "Miss Johnson, calm down. If you go to Franklin now, you cannot help Alan at all but make Franklin even angrier. Thinking that you are against the world for Alan, he will be even angrier. I really shouldn't have told you this. I thought it was because you knew about it that you quarreled with Franklin and left home."

Outside, there was a sudden "Boom" sound. It was the thunder.

The weather was supposed to be fine, but it suddenly rained.

The raindrops fell. In the room called "Rain Listening Pavilion," they could hear the rain very clearly.

But Emily was not in the mood to appreciate it at all. Once she thought that Alan was still kneeling outside, the rain made her more upset.

"Why is it so unfair?" Emily said sadly.

Harry was silent, and he didn't know what to say to Emily. After a while, he sighed and said, "I don't know how to explain it to you. You probably don't know how important you are to Franklin. Because of you, he's not only angry at Alan, but also angry at Ivy even if Ivy never admitted that she had anything to do with it. He called me today and told me to send Ivy abroad and forbade her to stay at home."

"Is that why you want to treat me to dinner?" Emily finally understood why Harry was so attentive to her.

So, it was all for Ivy! He wanted her to go to Franklin and plead for Ivy to stay.

But she didn't understand.

"Since you and Franklin are friends and have no conflict of interest, why are you afraid of him? He asks you to send your sister away, but why do you have to do that? Why do you listen to him?"

"We are best friends, so there are a lot of secrets that we don't want outsiders to know about each other. This time Ivy crossed his line, and I can understand why he was angry. But he doesn't listen to me now. It is better for the doer to undo what he has done. I'm afraid only Miss Johnson can resolve the conflict."

"Then you may turn to the wrong person." Emily said, "I can't help anything. He told me to get lost and didn't want to see me anymore. What else can I do?" Emily sneered.

Harry said, "Tough love. It's the first time I've heard him tell someone to get lost. No matter how angry he used to be, he wouldn't say such a word. It shows how important you are to him that you can make him lose his mind."
