CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 195

The more Alyssa thought about it, the more she felt that she was right.

If it was anyone else who said that they did not find out, Alyssa would also believe it. But it was impossible for Emmett to not find out.

Emmett's confidence came from his bones.

When she thought of this, she could not stop.

Alyssa had been thinking about this all day.

As soon as she got off work, she rushed home by car, wanting to tell Emmett about this.

However, when she returned home, Emmett was not back yet.

It was already seven o'clock when Jessie prepared dinner, but Emmett was not back yet.

Jessie saw that it was getting late, so she advised Alyssa, "Young Madame, you should eat first. I don't know when young master will be back."

"It's okay, I will wait a little longer."

Emmett would definitely be very busy on the first day he went to the Lawrence Group. This was very normal.

She waited for a while longer. When she saw that Emmett was not back yet, Alyssa prepared to call him.

However, just as she took out her phone, a phone call came in.

She squinted her eyes and saw that it was Emmett.

Alyssa picked up the phone and asked him, "When are you coming back?"

"I just finished a meeting. I might be back very late tonight. Go to sleep first. Don't wait for me." Emmett lowered his voice slightly. There was a hint of gentleness in his voice, but there was also a trace of fatigue.

The meeting had been going on for too long. He did not notice it was already so late.

As soon as the meeting ended, he immediately called Alyssa.

"Alright..."

Although she and Emmett had not gone to work together recently, they had gone out together in the morning and came home at night.

Alyssa was still not used to being alone in an empty room.

She ate and went back to her room. She held the computer and wrote a script.

While writing, she kept an eye out for the sound of cars outside.

However, she was too tired after working all day. Not long after, she fell asleep leaning against the bed.

When Emmett came back, he saw this scene.

The room was very warm. Emmett walked into the bedroom and saw Alyssa leaning against the bed and sleeping with her head tilted.

Her hands were still on the keyboard of her notebook. Her hair was curled up and her long hair was scattered.

Emmett walked over quietly and reached out to pull out the computer under Alyssa's hands.

Although his movements were very light, Alyssa was sleeping too lightly and was still woken up.

Alyssa opened her hazy sleeping eyes and was not very awake yet. She looked at the person in front of her and said in a daze, "You are back?"

Her eyes were misty and she leaned against the bed and slept for too long with her head tilted. She moved and her entire body tilted to the side and was about to fall on the bed.

Emmett quickly reached out and held her head. His other hand wrapped around her waist to let her sleep. His voice was low. "Yes, go to sleep."

Alyssa heard him and really went back to sleep in a daze.

From the time she laid back on the bed to the time she fell asleep, it was only ten seconds.

Emmett looked at her peaceful sleeping face and was stunned for a moment. He could not help but reach out to pinch her nose and muttered, "My sleepyhead."

He went to the bathroom to wash up and came back to bed. Alyssa, who had fallen asleep, seemed to have consciousness and automatically burrowed into Emmett's arms.

Emmett saw this and his eyes were gentle. He held her firmly in his arms and soon fell asleep.

…

The next day.

When Alyssa opened her eyes, she subconsciously reached out her hand to feel beside her.

In the end, her side was empty.

Emmett was not there.

She immediately rolled over from the bed and sat up.

Emmett didn't come back last night?

That's not right. He seemed to have come back.

Alyssa turned her head and looked at the laptop on the sofa.

She remembered that Emmett had come back last night and helped her keep the laptop.

But where was he? Could he have left again?

Alyssa rolled off the bed, grabbed a coat and put it on. She then ran downstairs in her slippers.

When she ran to the stairs, she saw Emmett walking out of the door dressed in formal attire.

She called out, "Emmett?"

Emmett turned his head when he heard her. He only took a glance and frowned slightly. "Go back and change your clothes. I'll go to the company first."

"Okay." Alyssa subconsciously replied. She saw Emmett turn around and walk out.

She opened her mouth but did not say anything in the end.

Only when Emmett disappeared did she tighten her coat and go back to the bedroom to change.
