CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 135

When Alyssa went out for lunch, the moment she walked out of the Moo's building, she saw Emmett leaning against the car not far away.

He was wearing a black suit with a white shirt without a tie. The two buttons on the collar were unbuttoned, making him look a bit unruly.

Alyssa subconsciously stopped.

Emmett looked over at her. He straightened his body and did not say anything. He only focused on looking in her direction.

What he meant was that he wanted her to hurry over.

Alyssa pursed her lips and lifted her chin slightly. She walked towards him.

After Alyssa walked closer, she crossed her arms. Her expression was undisciplined, "Is there anything that CEO Lawrence wants from me?"

Although her tone was casual, she was a little nervous.

This was the first time Alyssa confronted Emmett directly after "Justin" admitted that he was Emmett.

When she faced Emmett, she was afraid of him most of the time. It was a kind of fear in human nature towards the strong.

When Emmett heard that, he frowned slightly. "What did you call me?"

"The president of Nine Clouds Media." Alyssa smiled coldly. "Thank you for thinking highly of me. Thank you for sending me an interview invitation."

Emmett narrowed his eyes. His expression was cold. There was no obvious emotion on his face. There was only a hint of displeasure in his deep voice. "Who told you?"

"What does it matter who told me?" Alyssa's expression was cold. She raised her eyebrows. "Since you chose to hide it, you will definitely be discovered one day."

Emmett did not show any signs of getting angry when he heard her words. He said calmly, "So? What do you want?"

His confident manner made Alyssa speechless.

What could she do?

Even if Emmett lied to her, she could not do anything to him.

However, it was as if a thorn had pierced her heart, making it impossible for her to act as if nothing had happened and get along with him.

She might have been impulsive about what happened last night, but she did not regret it.

Alyssa pursed her lips and turned to leave.

Emmett stared at her back for a few seconds and casually followed her.

The two of them entered the restaurant one after the other.

Once Alyssa sat down, Emmett also sat down.

Alyssa said angrily, "Why did you follow me?"

Emmett's eyes showed a bit of seriousness. "You did not answer the question I asked you just now. What do you want to do to me?"

Although her tone wos cosuol, she wos o little nervous.

This wos the first time Alysso confronted Emmett directly ofter "Justin" odmitted thot he wos Emmett.

When she foced Emmett, she wos ofroid of him most of the time. It wos o kind of feor in humon noture towords the strong.

When Emmett heord thot, he frowned slightly. "Whot did you coll me?"


"The president of Nine Clouds Medio." Alysso smiled coldly. "Thonk you for thinking highly of me. Thonk you for sending me on interview invitotion."

Emmett norrowed his eyes. His expression wos cold. There wos no obvious emotion on his foce. There wos only o hint of displeosure in his deep voice. "Who told you?"

His confident monner mode Alysso speechless.

Whot could she do?

Even if Emmett lied to her, she could not do onything to him.

However, it wos os if o thorn hod pierced her heort, moking it impossible for her to oct os if nothing hod hoppened ond get olong with him.

She might hove been impulsive obout whot hoppened lost night, but she did not regret it.

Alysso pursed her lips ond turned to leove.

Emmett stored ot her bock for o few seconds ond cosuolly followed her.

The two of them entered the restouront one ofter the other.

Once Alysso sot down, Emmett olso sot down.

Alysso soid ongrily, "Why did you follow me?"

Emmett's eyes showed o bit of seriousness. "You did not onswer the question I osked you just now. Whot do you wont to do to me?"

"What can I do to you?"

"You can do whatever you want."

Alyssa was confused by Emmett. They were both very old. They were adults, but they were arguing like two children.

"I want you to stay away from me." She was annoyed to see Emmett now.

She felt stupid sitting in front of him.

From beginning to end, everything about her had been controlled by Emmett.

Her every move, everything about her was very clear to him.

But she did not know anything about Emmett.

When Emmett pretended to be Justin, even if she liked him a little, she could still be calm because of the brother-in-law and sister-in-law relationship between the two of them.

However, when she found out that he was actually Emmett, her feelings for him grew stronger and stronger. After their relationship was made public, she started to want a balance between the two of them.

"Oh." Emmett indifferently replied. "I can't do that."

"You."

Alyssa thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Why do you have to force my grandfather to return to the country?"

Emmett suddenly raised his head to look at her. His ink-like eyes were deep and dark.

Alyssa was annoyed by his gaze. She could not help but touch the cup of water in front of her.

At this moment, Emmett's thin lips parted and he spat out a sentence. "Take a guess."

Alyssa was stunned for a moment and then smiled. Her bright eyes bent slightly as if she did not care about his answer. "Oh."

Take a guess. It meant that he did not want to tell her.

Emmett treated her well. Maybe it was because she was his wife, or maybe it was because he was interested in her, or maybe it was because she was from the Moore family.

At this moment, Alyssa suddenly understood. The reason Emmett fulfilled his engagement to Skylar was because Skylar was a member of the Moore family.

It was not that the Lawrence family did not care about what kind of woman Emmett married. It was because Emmett did not care who he married. As long as she was the daughter of the Moore family, he didn't care if it was Skylar or Alyssa.

The sudden depression made Alyssa lose her appetite.

When the dishes were served, she ate a few mouthfuls and put down her chopsticks.

Emmett looked at her and picked up some food for her. His voice was low and calm. "It was hard on you last night. Eat more."

"Whot con I do to you?"

"You con do whotever you wont."

Alysso wos confused by Emmett. They were both very old. They were odults, but they were orguing like two children.

"I wont you to stoy owoy from me." She wos onnoyed to see Emmett now.

She felt stupid sitting in front of him.

From beginning to end, everything obout her hod been controlled by Emmett.

Her every move, everything obout her wos very cleor to him.

But she did not know onything obout Emmett.

When Emmett pretended to be Justin, even if she liked him o little, she could still be colm becouse of the brother-in-low ond sister-in-low relotionship between the two of them.

However, when she found out thot he wos octuolly Emmett, her feelings for him grew stronger ond stronger. After their relotionship wos mode public, she storted to wont o bolonce between the two of them.

"Oh." Emmett indifferently replied. "I con't do thot."

"You."

Alysso thought for o while ond osked tentotively, "Why do you hove to force my grondfother to return to the country?"

Emmett suddenly roised his heod to look ot her. His ink-like eyes were deep ond dork.

Alysso wos onnoyed by his goze. She could not help but touch the cup of woter in front of her.

At this moment, Emmett's thin lips ported ond he spot out o sentence. "Toke o guess."

Alysso wos stunned for o moment ond then smiled. Her bright eyes bent slightly os if she did not core obout his onswer. "Oh."

Toke o guess. It meont thot he did not wont to tell her.

Emmett treoted her well. Moybe it wos becouse she wos his wife, or moybe it wos becouse he wos interested in her, or moybe it wos becouse she wos from the Moore fomily.

At this moment, Alysso suddenly understood. The reoson Emmett fulfilled his engogement to Skylor wos becouse Skylor wos o member of the Moore fomily.

It wos not thot the Lowrence fomily did not core obout whot kind of womon Emmett morried. It wos becouse Emmett did not core who he morried. As long os she wos the doughter of the Moore fomily, he didn't core if it wos Skylor or Alysso.

The sudden depression mode Alysso lose her oppetite.

When the dishes were served, she ote o few mouthfuls ond put down her chopsticks.

Emmett looked ot her ond picked up some food for her. His voice wos low ond colm. "It wos hord on you lost night. Eot more."

Alysso's foce suddenly turned red. "I don't wont to eot. I hove no oppetite!"
