Chapter 35
Franklin dragged Emily into the bathroom, locked the door, took off his clothes, and opened the
showerhead. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Emily turned her back in fear and bit her lower lips nervously.
Franklin curled his lips, "Do you know what I'm going to do?"
"Of course."
"Well, not bad. You seem to be a little more clever. You're right," Franklin said with a smile. He cupped
her cheeks and then lowered his head to kiss her passionately.
Emily struggled but she was definitely not that strong as Franklin.
But she thought of her baby. She became awakened and pushed him away, "Don't forget I'm pregnant."
The words were like a bucket of ice water, which instantly poured over Franklin's heart and cooled him
down.
He clenched his fists and released Emily, but his blood was about to burn at the time. However, reason
still prevailed, letting him know that he could do nothing now.
"Take a shower!" Franklin sighed and turned back under the showerhead, turning the water cooler.
Emily curled her lips and couldn't hold her good mood as she looked at his sullen face.
It was already an hour after they had taken a shower.
Emily put on the clothes that Jason had prepared for her which seemed to be made of very good
materials. She couldn't help feeling grateful.
They had dinner at a nearby hotel. During the meal, Mr. Martinez kept teasing them and saying that he
would give them a big gift when they got married.
Franklin was in a good mood with a cheerful look.
Emily whispered in his ear, "I'm going to the washroom."
Franklin nodded and said gently, "Be careful. Should I go with you?"
Emily glared at him. He was telling such a big joke. They were not that kind of close friends who would
go to the washroom together.
Harry watched Emily leave and after a while, he excused himself from going to the bathroom and went
out too.
Emily came out of the bathroom just in time to meet Harry.
"Mr. Carter," Emily nodded at him and was ready to go back.
Unexpectedly, Harry stopped her and said, "Miss Johnson, can I have a minute?"
"Me?" Emily was surprised. She then smiled and said, "Mr. Carter and I don't seem to have anything to
talk about!"
"Why not? If it weren't for Miss Johnson, Franklin would have been my brother-in-law," Harry snorted
coldly.
Emily was getting more and more surprised. No wonder Harry's look had always been bad and he
always looked at her strangely. It turned out to be this reason.
"Miss Johnson, let's talk somewhere else! It's not nice to chat at the entrance of the restroom," Harry
said.
Emily thought for a while, then she nodded and followed Harry.
Although she had no wild thoughts about Franklin, she was still curious about him. If she could learn
more about him, she might avoid some troubles in the future.
"Sit down please, Miss Johnson!" Harry took her to a secluded lounge in the lobby and asked the
waiter to bring them a pot of good tea.
However, Emily did not dare to drink tea since she was pregnant. She just thanked him for his
kindness.
Harry looked at Emily and sighed, "I really didn't expect Franklin to be together with Miss Johnson. In
fact, my sister will be back in two weeks."
"Is your sister Franklin's childhood sweetheart?" Emily asked in surprise.
Harry's face suddenly frozen. He said, "They did know each other at a very young age. Franklin and I
are classmates and our families are close friends, too. Ivy loved Franklin since she was very young and
marrying him was her dream since childhood."
They are indeed childhood sweethearts.
Emily was very ashamed. If not for that night, she wouldn't have gotten tangled up with Franklin, let
alone having a baby.
There were only two weeks before Miss Carter went back to China, but Franklin had already married
someone else. No one would know how sad she would be.
"I'm sorry about this," Emily said shamefully, "I don't know how to explain the relationship between
Franklin and me... But don't worry. When Miss Carter comes back, if Franklin wants to break up with
me, I will agree immediately. It will never affect his relationship with Miss Carter."
"Miss Johnson tells such a good joke. After all the hard work to get Franklin to be with you, are you
willing to let go so easily?" Harry felt that she was simply joking or that she was deliberately fooling
him.
"Of course, I'm willing to let go. This is my deal with Franklin," Emily said immediately.
Harry frowned and looked at her with his deep-set eyes. After a while, he asked, "Do you have any
agreement with Franklin? Why did he do that with you?"
Emily bit her lips nervously. It was better not to let anyone know about her pregnancy or it would cause
trouble to both Franklin and her.
After thinking for a while, she could only say, "This is an agreement between Franklin and me. But Mr.
Carter, please don't worry. I promised it will not affect the relationship between Miss Carter and
Franklin. When he needs me to make way for Miss Cater, I will immediately do that."
