CEO's Substitute Bride

---

Alyssa knew the people of the Moore family too well.

They placed benefits first and only wanted to get benefits from her. They wanted nothing more than to drain her of all her value.

This time, the news and the Internet had spread that she had done evil things to Winston. And Winston had not woken up yet.

Who was Winston?

He was a big shot in the business world. He had a lot of influence. He was rich and powerful. He was the head of the Lawrence family who covered the sky with one hand.

If Winston didn't wake up, Alyssa wouldn't be able to pay him back even if she had ten lives.

The people from the Moore family came today to confirm the authenticity of the matter and draw a clear line with her.

She had been used by the people of the Moore family too many times and could easily guess their intentions.

And the facts proved that Alyssa's guess was right.

That night, Jason announced he would cut off ties with Alyssa.

This matter was also on the headlines.

Alyssa read the report several times and then screenshot it. She then ordered the bodyguards to buy a newspaper.

Hazel quickly called to her.

"You're not Jason's biological daughter, are you? Can't he be any more disgusting? You didn't push Winston at all. He didn't even get to the bottom of this matter before he rushed to cut off ties with you. He was afraid that he would be dragged into this. How can be he so shameless…"

When the phone was connected, Hazel scolded Jason with righteous indignation.

When Hazel finished scolding him, Alyssa slowly said, "There's nothing to be angry about. Haven't they always been like this?"

All along, Jason had never treated her as his own daughter.

Even this news about her severing the relationship between father and daughter was only to let the Lawrence family see it.

Alyssa discovered that she could even somewhat understand Jason now.

She laughed self-deprecatingly. "I'm serious. You don't have to be angry about this. It's not the first or second time. This time, he and I have broken off our relationship. I can save some trouble in the future. This is a good thing."

Hazel was silent for a moment. No one knew what she was thinking.

After a while, Hazel asked her. "Have you talked to the big boss? What does he think?"

"I don't know." Alyssa sounded a little depressed when Emmett was mentioned.

"You don't know?" Hazel was obviously more anxious than she was. "What is he thinking? If this continues, you will end up in jail!"

Hazel's voice sounded like she was extremely angry.

Although Alyssa had not been feeling good these two days because of Emmett's attitude, she did not think that Emmett could really send her to prison.

She was very calm now and firmly believed that Emmett was hiding something from her and not really suspecting her.

Alyssa could only console Hazel, "It's fine. He will not let me really go to prison."

Alyssa mentioned that she had already left the old residence and Hazel said that she would come to find her tomorrow.

Just as she hung up the phone, Alyssa heard the sound of a car engine downstairs.

Emmett came back.

Alyssa put on her clothes and walked out of the bedroom. She walked through the corridor to the stairs and leaned over to look at the hall.

When Emmett came in from outside, Jessie went up to greet him.

Jessie asked him, "Young Master hasn't eaten yet, right? I cooked some dishes. Shall I heat them up for you?"

Emmett waved his hand and walked upstairs.

Suddenly, he seemed to feel Alyssa's presence. He raised his eyes and looked in her direction.

Then, he quickened his pace and almost ran upstairs.

Emmett stood in front of her and looked down at her as if he was sizing her up.

After a few seconds, he said coldly, "What are you standing here for? Go back to your room."

Alyssa was used to his commanding tone and was not afraid at all.

"Okay." Alyssa replied but did not move her feet.

Emmett's tone was laced with impatience. "Alyssa! Didn't you hear what I said?"

Alyssa leaned against the armrest and looked up at him. Her eyes and tone were full of seriousness. "It is so far back to my room. I am very tired walking."

Seeing Emmett's face turning black, she felt a little good.

When Winston was sent to the hospital, what he said really scared her.

She wanted to get the truth from Emmett in the morning, but he knocked her out again.

Emmett's mouth was as tight as welding. Anyway, she could not get anything out of him, so she could only go against him and find some balance.

In her imagination, with Emmett's temper, he might directly carry her back to the bedroom.

But Emmett did not do that.=

He fixed his gaze on Alyssa, his voice somewhat gloomy, "Grandfather is still in the ICU and has not woken up."

Alyssa was stunned for a moment and said softly, "I'm sorry."

No matter what Emmett was hiding from her, Winston was still in the hospital and had not woken up yet.
