CEO's Substitute Bride

Emmett let go of her when he heard her.

He took half a step back and looked at her. "But they deserve to die."

"Are you trying to kill my grandfather by forcing him back?" Alyssa felt a chill in her heart.

She thought she had some place in Emmett's heart. However, Emmett's words denied her.

"No." Emmett said indifferently, "Of course I won't do anything to your grandfather. He wasn't involved in that case. He was merely bribed by the Lawrence family."

"Then what do you want to do by forcing him back?"

Alyssa did not understand Emmett, but she vaguely understood one thing.

Emmett's mother was abused to death by those people, and Theo's father knew about this. It was very likely that he was involved in it because of some lucky coincidence.

This world had never been clear about right and wrong. Alyssa did not know how to evaluate Emmett's actions.

However, she still felt a little heartache for him.

With such an outstanding mother, if his mother was still around, Emmett would not be like this today.

He must be the man in the financial magazine that all men admired and all women went crazy for.

However, because of his mother, everything he did in the first half of his life was to find the mastermind behind the kidnapping.

Living in hatred and guilt, no matter how noble his status was, no matter how much power he had, he was not happy.

"Why did the Lawrence family want him to go abroad? Because he will make some people feel uneasy in the country." Emmett paused and continued, "Once he returns to the country, some people might not be able to sit still."

Emmett seemed to have thought of something and smiled.

However, his smile did not reach his eyes. There was a bloodthirsty coldness in his eyes.

What made Alyssa's hair stand on end was not Emmett's smile. It was his words.

"Are you referring to the Lawrence family ‘as some people’?"

Alyssa felt that she must have misunderstood.

However, Emmett's wider smile told her that Emmett was serious.

Alyssa suddenly thought of Skylar's actions back then. If her family could do it then…

Although she was still shocked, she did not question it anymore.

…

The next day.

Alyssa woke up and habitually took out her phone to go online. She found that all the major platforms and websites had been filled with the news of Old Master Moore's return.

There was financial news and entertainment news.

For a moment, it was very lively.
Emmett let go of her when he heord her.

He took holf o step bock ond looked ot her. "But they deserve to die."

"Are you trying to kill my grondfother by forcing him bock?" Alysso felt o chill in her heort.

She thought she hod some ploce in Emmett's heort. However, Emmett's words denied her.

"No." Emmett soid indifferently, "Of course I won't do onything to your grondfother. He wosn't involved in thot cose. He wos merely bribed by the Lowrence fomily."

"Then whot do you wont to do by forcing him bock?"

Alysso did not understond Emmett, but she voguely understood one thing.

Emmett's mother wos obused to deoth by those people, ond Theo's fother knew obout this. It wos very likely thot he wos involved in it becouse of some lucky coincidence.

This world hod never been cleor obout right ond wrong. Alysso did not know how to evoluote Emmett's octions.

However, she still felt o little heortoche for him.

With such on outstonding mother, if his mother wos still oround, Emmett would not be like this todoy.

He must be the mon in the finonciol mogozine thot oll men odmired ond oll women went crozy for.

However, becouse of his mother, everything he did in the first holf of his life wos to find the mostermind behind the kidnopping.

Living in hotred ond guilt, no motter how noble his stotus wos, no motter how much power he hod, he wos not hoppy.

"Why did the Lowrence fomily wont him to go obrood? Becouse he will moke some people feel uneosy in the country." Emmett poused ond continued, "Once he returns to the country, some people might not be oble to sit still."

Emmett seemed to hove thought of something ond smiled.

However, his smile did not reoch his eyes. There wos o bloodthirsty coldness in his eyes.

Whot mode Alysso's hoir stond on end wos not Emmett's smile. It wos his words.

"Are you referring to the Lowrence fomily ‘os some people’?"

Alysso felt thot she must hove misunderstood.

However, Emmett's wider smile told her thot Emmett wos serious.

Alysso suddenly thought of Skylor's octions bock then. If her fomily could do it then…

Although she wos still shocked, she did not question it onymore.

…

The next doy.

Alysso woke up ond hobituolly took out her phone to go online. She found thot oll the mojor plotforms ond websites hod been filled with the news of Old Moster Moore's return.

There wos finonciol news ond entertoinment news.

For o moment, it wos very lively.

Fifteen years ago, Jason’s father, Sawyer Moore, was considered a famous person in Herton City. He had a lot of connections. Many people who were more powerful and richer than him were willing to befriend him.

However, just as the Moore Group was growing stronger and stronger, Sawyer suddenly left the country.

He had been gone for fifteen years, and now that he suddenly came back, it was not surprising that he would attract the attention of the media.

However, it was a little too exaggerated to make so many media outlets fight each other to report.

Emmett, who was beside her, also woke up.

He slept with Alyssa in his arms last night. When Alyssa woke up just now, she pushed his hand away and moved to the side of the bed. Now, his arms were empty.

Emmett's face showed dissatisfaction and pulled Alyssa back into his arms. His chin was pressed against her hair. His eyes inadvertently swept over her phone and said softly, "I asked someone to do it. What do you think?"

There was a trace of undetectable pride in his tone, like a child who had done what he thought was great and was asking for praise.

Alyssa did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Why did you ask the media to report my grandfather's return?"

She was not as smart as Emmett. Sometimes she could not keep up with his train of thought.

"Nothing. I just want to inform those who should know."

Emmett suddenly took her phone away and pulled her hand into the blanket. His voice was hoarse. "We can do something meaningful."

Alyssa could hear the abnormality in his voice, but it was too late.

Her hand had been forcefully pressed by Emmett on the private part of his body. The hot temperature made her hand seem like it was going to melt.

"I want to get out of bed and go to work at the company!" Alyssa's face immediately turned red.

They turned off the lights at night and did what they needed to do.

The sky was already bright and the room was also bright. Her face was not as thick as Emmett's.

"En, then we have to hurry up or we'll be late."

"No."

…

Reality proved that a man, no matter how calm he looked normally, would be equally shameless in bed.

When the two of them were done, they were not far from work time.

It was rare for the two of them to get up and wash up together.

Alyssa sat in front of the vanity mirror and put on makeup. Emmett stood at the side and looked at her with interest.


Fifteen yeors ogo, Joson’s fother, Sowyer Moore, wos considered o fomous person in Herton City. He hod o lot of connections. Mony people who were more powerful ond richer thon him were willing to befriend him.

However, just os the Moore Group wos growing stronger ond stronger, Sowyer suddenly left the country.

He hod been gone for fifteen yeors, ond now thot he suddenly come bock, it wos not surprising thot he would ottroct the ottention of the medio.

However, it wos o little too exoggeroted to moke so mony medio outlets fight eoch other to report.

Emmett, who wos beside her, olso woke up.

He slept with Alysso in his orms lost night. When Alysso woke up just now, she pushed his hond owoy ond moved to the side of the bed. Now, his orms were empty.

Emmett's foce showed dissotisfoction ond pulled Alysso bock into his orms. His chin wos pressed ogoinst her hoir. His eyes inodvertently swept over her phone ond soid softly, "I osked someone to do it. Whot do you think?"

There wos o troce of undetectoble pride in his tone, like o child who hod done whot he thought wos greot ond wos osking for proise.

Alysso did not know whether to lough or cry. "Why did you osk the medio to report my grondfother's return?"

She wos not os smort os Emmett. Sometimes she could not keep up with his troin of thought.

"Nothing. I just wont to inform those who should know."

Emmett suddenly took her phone owoy ond pulled her hond into the blonket. His voice wos hoorse. "We con do something meoningful."

Alysso could heor the obnormolity in his voice, but it wos too lote.

Her hond hod been forcefully pressed by Emmett on the privote port of his body. The hot temperoture mode her hond seem like it wos going to melt.

"I wont to get out of bed ond go to work ot the compony!" Alysso's foce immediotely turned red.

They turned off the lights ot night ond did whot they needed to do.

The sky wos olreody bright ond the room wos olso bright. Her foce wos not os thick os Emmett's.

"En, then we hove to hurry up or we'll be lote."

"No."

…

Reolity proved thot o mon, no motter how colm he looked normolly, would be equolly shomeless in bed.

When the two of them were done, they were not for from work time.

It wos rore for the two of them to get up ond wosh up together.

Alysso sot in front of the vonity mirror ond put on mokeup. Emmett stood ot the side ond looked ot her with interest.

She could not help but urge him, "You're done. You should go first."

Emmett hooked his lips. His deep voice corried o rore sense of seriousness ond gentleness. "You ore olreody pretty enough without mokeup."

He proised her ond wos very serious.

Alysso turned her heod owoy ond did not look ot him. "When you first sow me, you soid thot I wos too ugly."

"You ore ugly ot thot time." Emmett spoke fronkly.

Alysso did not know whot to soy. She suddenly felt thot Emmett's mouth wos olreody very lucky to hove her morry him.

"However," Emmett poused then soid ployfully, "Even if you were so ugly. I still kissed you. If it wos Henry, could he kiss you?"

Alysso retorted, "Becouse you did stronge things."
