CEO's Substitute Bride

Alyssa remembered that she had bought some spare medicine.

She changed her clothes and squatted in front of the drawer. As soon as she found the medicine, she heard the sound of the door opening behind her.

Alyssa turned her head. She was still holding the medicine bottle in her hand when she saw Emmett push open the door and walk in.

She quickly reacted and quietly hid the bottle of medicine behind her. "Are you at home?"

She thought Emmett had already left, but she did not expect him to still be at home.

"What are you looking for?" Emmett walked towards her calmly.

Alyssa hid the bottle tightly behind her and slowly stood up. "My throat is a little uncomfortable. I want to find some medicine to take."

Emmett's eyes showed that he understood. His tone was as indifferent as usual. "The medical kit is not here."

Alyssa panicked when he looked at her. "Yes."

However, Emmett walked past her and walked to the other side. "I'll give it to you."

Although Alyssa was a little surprised in her heart, she heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Emmett, who was walking forward, suddenly turned around and grabbed the bottle of medicine that Alyssa had hidden behind her back.

Emmett's speed was too fast. He did not give Alyssa a chance to react and snatched the bottle of medicine from her hand.

"You..." Alyssa's face turned anxious. She opened her mouth and looked at Emmett's increasingly gloomy face. She could not help but shiver.

Emmett held the bottle and looked down at her. "What is this?"

He stared straight at Alyssa. His entire body was like a taut bow that could explode at any time.

Alyssa swallowed her saliva and turned her head to the side. She whispered, "Contraceptive."

"Be louder." Emmett's voice was a little hoarse.

Alyssa turned her head and shouted at him. "I said it’s contraceptive, can't you hear me?"

Emmett's hand that was holding the bottle tightened and his joints bulged, as if he was going to crush the bottle.

Alyssa reached out to him. "Give it to me."

Emmett pursed his lips and smashed the bottle in his hand.

Because his emotions were fluctuating too much, his breathing was heavy and his voice was suppressed. "Alyssa, do you really not want to give birth to my child?"

"No, I just don't want to give birth now." Alyssa bit her lips and took half a step back.

"You don't want to try the wedding dress. You don't want to get married and even don't want to have children. Next, you don't want to be with me, right?" Emmett's voice was as cold as ice. It was so cold that it seeped into one's bones.

Alyssa retorted, "No."

"No? Then why have you had the pill?" Emmett looked at her with an ashen face. The veins on his forehead were bulging, as if he was enduring to the limit.

"It's not that I don't want your child. I just feel that this is not the right time."

"In any case, you will have a child sooner or later. What's the difference between having a child now and having a child in the future?"

"If I get pregnant now, I may not be able to devote myself to work for the next one or two years."

"You're only twenty-two years old. It's the same for working after giving birth."

Alyssa realized that if she continued to talk like this, she might fail.

Alyssa reached out to grab her hair and said somewhat agitatedly, “Can't you respect my thoughts? Why do you have to make decisions for everything? I have my own thoughts too. I have my life plans. These are all things can be discussed later…”

Emmett interrupted her. "Your life plans do not include giving birth to our child."

"I just told you."

"I understand." Emmett sneered and turned to leave.

However, before he left, he did not forget to pick up the bottle and take it away.

Was he afraid that she would take the medicine?

Alyssa felt that it was both funny and infuriating.

Emmett was so angry that he was about to explode, but he still picked up the bottle.

…

Emmett took the medicine and Alyssa had to go downstairs to eat. She would go out to buy medicine after she finished eating.

After breakfast, Alyssa planned to go out.

When she walked to the door, she was stopped by a bodyguard. "Young Madame, where are you going?"

Alyssa did not think too much and said directly, "I'm going to buy something. You don't need to follow me. I'll go."

When she finished speaking, the bodyguard who stopped her did not move away.

Alyssa frowned and her expression became slightly gloomy, "What do you mean?"

The bodyguard said expressionlessly, "Young Master has instructed that if Young Madame wants to go out, she has to wait for him to come back and go out together."

"Emmett instructed?" Alyssa suspected that she had misheard him.

The bodyguard nodded respectfully. "Yes."

Emmett was restricting her freedom and didn’t let her go out?

Alyssa pursed her lips and took out her phone to call Emmett. "Emmett, are you insane? What do you mean by not letting me go out?"

Compared to Alyssa's cold and sharp voice, Emmett’s voice was very calm. "Wait for me to come back. I will go with you."

"Who wants you to go with me? It's not like I don't know how to walk!"
