Chapter 260


    "Miss Johnson, I noticed that you have changed." Lisa said, feeling almost speechless.


    Emily snorted coldly, "So many things have happened to me. It would be silly if I didn''t change."


    "You didn''t upload Mrs. Brent''s video, did you? By the way, you went to the birthday party that day. It


    couldn''t really be you..." Lisa was just guessing, but the more she thought about it, the more frightened


    she became.


    "Stop your imagination. I''m not that good. But you are right. I really wanted to do it, and I did record the


    video, but it was deleted by Franklin. So you can see I have the intention to do it, but I don''t have the


    guts. However, evil is rewarded with evil. She still got exposed." Emily gloated.


    Lisa frowned and said, "Fortunately, you didn''t do it. Otherwise, Mr. Brent would be so heartbroken. Do


    you know how much damage this has done to Mrs. Brent''s reputation, but our The Brent Group was hit


    hardest. Today''s stock plummeted, which equals an earthquake to ourpany."


    "No way! Mrs. Brent''s having an affair could lead to such a bad result?" Emily blinked and said in


    confusion.


    Lisa snorted and said, "What do you know? The important people have big financial stakes in their


    something happens to them, it will directly affect thepany''s equity."


    "We can do nothing about it. That is his mother, a fact no one can change. Franklin is so good at his


    work and he could turn things around in a hospital bed before. I''m sure he would solve the problem this


    time." Hearing Lisa''s words, Emily couldn''t continue to smile, but her tone was still stiff.


    Lisa sighed and said faintly, "We don''t know if there''s any way, but fortunately, it''s not Mr. Brent who is


    having a scandal, or it will be really a big problem. But as this happens, the heated topic that Mr. Brent


    ignored Miss Lewis and apanied you at the birthday party has cooled down a lot. In this way, Mrs.


    Brent indirectly saved you."


    Lisa smiled again as she spoke. At this moment, members of the Brent Family kepting down. They


    were filled with righteous indignation as if Mrs. Brent was their own wife and it was they who had been


    disgraced.


    After everyone left, Lisa rushed up.


    It had been half an hour since she came down again, but her face didn''t look good. Seeing that Emily


    was still sitting in the living room, she said to her, "Go up and bring Mr. Brent some food or drink! Stay


    by his side."


    "What''s wrong? Is he sad?" Emily asked doubtfully.


    Lisa sighed and said, "Anyone would be sad if they encounter this, not to mention that Mr. Brent has


    been forced by those people for a long time. s, Mr. Brent is really pitiful."


    "Those people forced him? To do what?" Emily didn''t understand. It was Mrs. Brent who was having an


    affair and making trouble. Why did they force Franklin?


    "They asked Mr. Brent to send his mother abroad and said don''t let her disgrace herself and the Brent


    Family here." Lisa sighed.


    Emily thought for a while and agreed. "These people are right. This kind of thing has happened. What''s


    the point of her still staying here? It''s better to send her out, saving her the trouble of not daring to go


    out."


    "Oh right, what do you know? If Mrs. Brent leaves the Brent Family''s Residence, it means that she is


    no longer a member of the Brent Family. That''s Mr. Brent didn''t send her abroad although she had


    done so many wrong things before. This is also the old rule going down in the Brent Family. The wives


    of the Brent Family must stay in the Residence for the rest of her life. They cannot go anywhere."


    "Really? Is there really such an unreasonable rule?" Emily was surprised.


    "Yes, Mrs. Brent must be in the Brent Family''s Residence no matter what. After Mrs. Brent''s death, the


    person who moves into the Residence will be Mr. Brent''s next wife."


    Emily could not help but shiver. She couldn''t help thinking of herself and Avery. Fortunately, she had


    divorced Franklin. Otherwise, she would be trapped in the Residence for the rest of her life.


    "Okay, I see. Go do your job! I''ll go up and see him." Emily said softly.


    Lisa nodded. She still had a lot of things to do. She really didn''t have time to talk to Emily.


    "Help me get a bowl of soup." Emily told the servant.


    The servant quickly went to the kitchen to get a bowl of soup for Emily who then went upstairs with it.

    Franklin was still in the study, and the door was not closed. So Emily didn''t knock on the door when she


    went in. More importantly, she was holding the bowl with both hands which made her unable to do that.


    As soon as she entered, she heard moans and other lewd sounds, including Mrs. Brent''s voice.


    Emily looked at Franklin awkwardly. He was secretly watching the video as she had guessed. She


    knew what the video was about without guessing. She really didn''t expect Franklin to watch it so


    carefully. After all, the woman was his mother.


    "Ahem, there''s soup in the kitchen. I brought you a bowl. Drink it while it''s warm!" Emily put the bowl of


    soup on the desk and reminded Franklin with a light cough.


    Franklin just finished thest section and closed theptop''s lid. He looked at her with meaningful light


    in his eyes but didn''t say a word.


    Emily thought he was being too sad, so she quickly reminded him, "Drink it! You can''t change what has


    happened anyway. It''s no use worrying."


    "Yes, you''re right. What has happened can''t be changed, and it''s useless to worry. The only thing to do


    now is to find a way to solve it." Franklin said faintly.


    Emily heaved a sigh of relief when she knew he would beat himself up over this. She wanted to remind


    him to drink the soup again, but Franklin picked up his phone and called Jason.


    "Stop the investigation. I know who has uploaded the video. Now, do your best to delete all of it on the


    Inte and prevent it from going viral. Also, keep looking for the child." Franklin ordered in a low


    voice.


    Emily looked at Franklin in a daze and in shock.


    Only after he hung up the phone, Emily came back to her senses. She looked at him with a sullen face


    and asked, "You said you know who uploaded the video. Who is it?"


    Franklin chuckled and said slowly while looking at her, "Emily, do you know why I watched this video


    just now?"


    Emily''s face turned pale and she immediately thought of the reason.


    It was understandable if others couldn''t know who the person was, but Franklin would know because


    he saw the beginning of the video a little that night. Now that he saw the video again, he could know


    who it was from the shooting angle.


    "What do you want? Do you want to punish me?" Emily saw that he had known it was her, so she


    simply gave up defending for herself and asked Franklin with her head stuck up.


    Franklin chuckled and instead of scolding her angrily, he asked curiously with a smile, "I''m just curious.


    How did you do it? I deleted the video, and how did you retrieve it. Is there a special function


    concerning that on your phone?"
