Chapter 72


    "Emily, do not make trouble out of nothing." Franklin red at her angrily, never expecting her to say


    such a thing.Emily pursed her lips and shouted to the driver, "Stop the car. I want to get off.""Mr. Brent,"


    Facing a dilemma, the driver looked at Franklin.Emily yelled, "I told you to stop. If you don''t stop, I''ll


    open the door and get off.""Stop the car," Franklin said coldly.The driver had no choice but to stop the


    car.Emily pushed the car door open and got off and mmed it shut as she left.Although a voice in his


    head kept telling him to stay calm and sensible and tell him that he should chase this ungrateful and


    unreasonable woman back because it had beente. But emotions swayed him from making the


    move."Let''s go!" Franklin ordered the driver with a heavy voice, with a very sullen expression on his


    face.Emily left angrily, cursing as she walked. After she had walked quite a long way, she realized she


    didn''t know where should she go in the middle of the night."Joyce, are you home? I''m outside now. Can


    you take me in for a night?" Emily called Joyce pitifully.Joyce said as she put on the mask, "Of course,


    no problem. Do you want me to pick you up? Okay, then you can take a taxi. I''ll wait for you."Twenty


    minutester, Joyce''s doorbell rang.Joyce ran to open the door and was hugged by Emily the moment


    she opened it."Joyce, it''s good to have you," Emily said gratefully.Joyce quickly pushed her away and


    said, "Come on. You''re married. Not as close as before. Why are you here? Where''s your rich and


    handsome husband?""Don''t talk to me about him. I quarreled with him," Emily said angrily.Joyce


    quickly asked with a gossipy expression, "Why did you two quarrel? I saw that time he was quite


    protective of you and liked you quite a lot.""You don''t know anything. In his eyes, I am just his cat''s-


    paw. He married me to deliberately piss off his mother, and possibly to show those rtives of his on


    purpose. Otherwise, why did he say I was his assistant but did not introduce me as his wife at the hotel


    today?" Emily said in exasperation.After Emily telling Joyce the whole story, Joyce frowned and said,


    "He actually only said that you were just his assistant? Did he say that on purpose to that Miss Carter?


    Does he have a thing for that Miss Carter?""I don''t think so. He firmly denied it," said Emily.Joyce


    snorted and said, "Not to mention women, men have the same attitude when ites to rtionships,


    they are all in denial. Sometimes the more you deny it, the more you care, and that''s something I''ve


    learned over the years.""I still believe him on this point that he doesn''t have a crush on Ivy. If he did


    have a crush on anyone, it would be that Miss Lewis who hasn''t returned to our country. But all in all,


    he was just too much for me. I didn''t expect him to make a big deal out of introducing me, but it''s too


    much to be so perfunctory." Emily was getting angrier as she spoke.Joyce quicklyforted her, "Well,


    you don''t like him either. You two get what you need from each other. Why do you care so much about


    how he introduced you? Are you falling in love with him?""I didn''t," Emily denied immediately.Joyce''s


    words somehow made her feel jealous, and Emily had an indescribable feeling inside."Well, just wash


    up and sleep! You don''t have to go to work tomorrow, but I have to renovate the house. I have an


    appointment with Christian. I can''t bete," Joyce said immediately.Emily pursed her lips. After all, it


    wasn''t good to disturb people''s rest in their homes, so she had to go wash up and then wear Joyce''s


    clothes to bed.Joyce was drifting off to sleep when her phone suddenly rang.Emily was also asleep.


    After she was woken up by the ringing of her phone, she tapped Joyce and said, "Your phone is


    ringing."Joyce closed her eyes and used her hands to find her phone. She finally found the phone after


    searching for a while, picked up the phone and said, "Hey, who is it!""Is Emily with you?" The voice on


    the phone asked in a clear, cold voice.Joyce said, "Yes."Then the phone over there hung up.Joyce''s


    mind was muddled. She didn''t think much about it, and she threw her phone away.The next day, Joyce


    woke up feeling vague that she had received a callst night, but she wasn''t sure if she had. She


    shook her head and hurried to the bathroom. When she came out, she called out for Emily and ran out


    to buy breakfast.Emily was also wearing Joyce''s clothes today. Emily sat at the dining table, eating


    breakfast and staring at Joyce.Joyce was so frightened by Emily''s stare that she finally couldn''t stand it


    and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? I''m getting goosebumps.""Joyce, tell me if you''re in a


    rtionship," Emily asked.Joyce looked embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Are you a detective? How


    can you tell I''m in love?"Emily snorted coldly, "I know you like the back of my hand. You usually go out


    to buy breakfast with your hair down and in your pajamas, and when have you ever been so conscious


    of your appearance? You even put on make-up to get breakfast today and dressed so formally. You


    must have been afraid of meeting someone and that''s why you want to dress up for others to see. And


    you eat far less quickly than before, no longer gobbling but chewing slowly, which means that''s how


    you''ve been eatingtely, am I right?""All right, you''re a great detective. You''re right." Joyce wanted to


    deny her words. But she couldn''t control herself and smiled coyly.Emily''s eyes lit up and she asked


    excitedly, "Who is he? Which handsome guy? Do I know him?"Joyce blushed and nodded. When Emily


    saw Joyce''s expression, she felt that she was indeed right. There was a saying that was right, "You


    can''t hide a cold or a love affair.""Christian?" Emily suddenly thought of someone and asked in


    surprise.Joyce blushed even more and nodded again. If she didn''t hold the pancake in her hand, she


    would have covered her face with her hands.After thinking about Christian, Emily couldn''t help but


    smile and say, "Christian is very good. I didn''t expect you to be with him, but you will be well


    matched.""But he liked you before, will you mind?" Joyce asked quickly."How is that possible? You''re


    my best friend, and I think he is good enough for you. Let''s not talk about the past. Anyone can fall in


    love with someone identally.""That''s true." Joyce giggled again."How did you two start?" Emily


    asked, gossiping.Joyce''s giggling face fell for a moment and she beamed, "We haven''t even started a


    rtionship yet. I''m secretly in love with him and he doesn''t know it yet. I''m thinking about whether to


    confess my love to him.""Ah, he doesn''t know yet?""Oh, no more talking. Let''s go. I have an


    appointment with Christian. I can''t bete." Joyce quickly dragged Emily out.The two of them ran


    downstairs, not expecting a familiar car to be parked downstairs.Joyce didn''t know the car, but Emily


    knew it very well. Emily could not help but look serious and red at the back door with

    resentment.The driver got out of the car and said to Emily with a smile, "Madam, please get in the


    car!"The driver opened the car door, and Franklin sat inside and gave Emily a cold look, but did not


    speak anything.
