CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 157

Justin raised his head and carefully looked at Alyssa's expression.

He noticed that Alyssa's expression was normal, so he continued, "Sister Rosalie is a photographer. When she went to take pictures of snow, she encountered an avalanche. The rescue team never found her."

When he said the last few words, Justin's voice became softer.

Alyssa was stunned and did not know what to say for a moment.

"When did that happen?" Alyssa looked up and asked him.

Justin said, "Five years ago."

"Your brother and her…”

Justin pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. He looked sad. "She is my brother's fiancée."

Alyssa opened her mouth and was a little speechless.

She looked down at Dylan's message on her phone. She moved her finger and clicked the message. He replied. "Okay, I will tell Emmett."

There was an avalanche. If the rescue team did not find her, she would be dead. If she was buried in the snow, they would not be able to find her.

Alyssa's heart was somewhat stifled. Those emotions from before were all gone.

A long time ago, Alyssa vaguely felt that Emmett seemed to dislike her and Dylan having too much contact.

Thinking about it now, this was probably the reason.

Alyssa asked Justin again, "Do I really look like her?"

Justin saw that Alyssa's expression was normal, so he said truthfully, "I think she looks like her."

Alyssa fell silent and did not speak anymore.

…

Before lunch, Emmett came back.

The lunch was made by the bodyguards. Alyssa was now injured so naturally she could not cook.

Emmett did not eat much and put down his chopsticks. Alyssa did not eat much either. Only Justin ate the most.

Justin quickly finished his meal and went out.

Emmett and Alyssa were still sitting face to face when Emmett suddenly said, "What do you want to say?"

Alyssa looked up in surprise. She did not say anything but he knew she had something to say to him.

Emmett saw her thoughts from her expression. "Your expression tells me that you have something to say to me. You have questions to ask me."

Alyssa touched her face. Was it that obvious?

Alyssa cleared her throat. “Can I ask anything?"

Emmett raised his eyebrows slightly. When he went out in the morning, this woman even wanted to bite him when she talked to him. Now she looked like she wanted to say something but did not dare to. She was very suspicious.

Emmett hooked his lips and looked at her. "Since you know you can't ask, then don't ask."

"Only you can investigate me, and I can't ask you a question?" Alyssa also hooked her lips and smiled. Her bright eyes stared straight at him. "You also think Rosalie and I look alike. Isn't it?”

The relaxed expression on Emmett's face suddenly disappeared. His expression became somewhat gloomy. "Justin told you?"

"If it was something I really wanted to know, I would know even if no one else told me."

Hearing her reply, Emmett was sure that Justin had told her about it. He narrowed his eyes and said, "He told you that you look like Rose?"

Rose?

Such an intimate way of addressing her!

Emmett always called her "Alyssa." When he wanted her to go to the banquet, he called her "wife.”

Alyssa felt that she was very funny. She was actually jealous of a woman who was very likely not to be in this world.

Alyssa pursed her lips and did not speak with a straight face.

Emmett suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I feel that you do not look like her at all."

After saying that, he stood up and left.

..

Because she mentioned Rosalie's matter, Emmett and Alyssa, who did not have a harmonious relationship to begin with, became even more deadlocked.

When she was with Emmett, Alyssa felt that something was wrong all over her body. At night, she simply hugged the pillow and went to the room she had stayed in before to sleep.

She had just laid down on the bed when Emmett came over.

He stood at the door and crossed his arms as he looked at her expressionlessly. "Alyssa, aren’t you going to sleep with me?"

Emmett's expressionless face made Alyssa a little scared.

She hesitated for a moment and found an excuse to say, "My foot is injured. I am afraid that you will touch my foot at night."

When Emmett heard that, the corner of his lips curled into a mocking smile. "You passed out in the bathroom last night because you are too tired. I did not even touch your foot. Can I touch your foot when I sleep?"

Alyssa's face turned red when she heard these words. She opened her mouth but could not find the words she wanted to say.

She threw the small pillow beside her to Emmett. "Get out!"
