CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 313

Since Alyssa did not say anything, Hazel naturally did not have anything to say.

Hazel pulled Alyssa to sit beside Xavier.

On the other side of Xavier sat Emmett. Beside Emmett was a strange woman. Beside the woman was Kathleen and beside Kathleen was Frank.

The strange woman had been talking to Kathleen all this time, and occasionally she would come to Emmett's side and say something.

Emmett had a cigarette in his mouth. He did not pay much attention to the woman.

Alyssa retracted her gaze and felt Hazel bump into her arm.

She turned to look at Hazel and Hazel pointed at her phone.

In the next moment, she received a message from Hazel.

"That woman is called Maria Herbert, a friend of Kathleen’s from overseas. Her parents are some government dignitaries. Her family background is fairly decent. Kathleen wants to make a match between Emmett and Maria."

Maria Herbert.

Alyssa repeated this name in her heart.

Her name was quite nice.

The room was very quiet. Everyone held their wine cups and drank their wine. They chatted about their own days.

Alyssa lowered her eyes and did not look at Emmett anymore.

Actually, this was not quite surprising.

Now that Emmett was single to outsiders, the people of Lawrence family would definitely find other women for him.

Moreover, with Emmett's current condition and family background, the women that Lawrence family would find for him would only get better and better.

A woman with amazing family background, good appearance and outstanding abilities.

This kind of woman was the kind that could match a family like the Lawrence family.


However, she just didn't expect it to come so suddenly.

Hazel saw that Alyssa did not speak for a long time and could not help but approach her and ask her in a low voice, "Don't you have anything to say?"

"No." Alyssa took a deep breath and whispered to her, "What can I say?"

Hearing this, Hazel frowned.

Indeed, with Emmett and Alyssa's current situation, what status and position did Alyssa have to speak out?

Thinking of this, Hazel also became sullen.

Alyssa was clearly the one he liked, but at this time, she had no choice but to watch others shove women into Emmett's side.

If it wasn't for the terrible things that happened in Lawrence family, Alyssa wouldn't have wronged herself.

In front of Hazel, Xavier was like a puppy wagging its tail to please her.

He took a piece of fruit and asked Hazel, "Hazel, do you want to eat a fruit?"

"No, I'm not in a good mood right now. Don't talk to me. I'm annoyed when I see men." Hazel deliberately said it very loudly.

She had come over to eat with the crew, but she saw Xavier, Emmett and the others.

Then she called Xavier.

Xavier was willing to bare his own heart as long as it pleased Hazel. Of course, he spilled everything to her.

He told her without reservation that it was Emmett's older sister, Kathleen, who introduced a woman to him.

When Hazel heard that Kathleen introduced a woman to Emmett, she also came over. She did not expect that it was really like this, so she immediately called Alyssa.

Her words did not attract Emmett's attention.

On the other hand, when Alyssa spoke, Emmett looked at her.

Alyssa stood up and said, "I'm going to the washroom."

After she finished speaking, she got up and went out.

As soon as she left, Kathleen got up and wanted to go out as well.

Emmett put away the cigarette in his hand and said casually, "What? Are you going to get in touch with your former sister-in-law?"

Kathleen's expression did not look good when she heard that.

"Emmett, watch your words." Maria was her best friend. She introduced Maria to Emmett because she genuinely wanted to matchmake them.

When Emmett heard her, he hooked his lips and looked at Maria. "That is my ex-wife. Isn't she beautiful?"

The whole night, Emmett had an expressionless face. Now when he finally smiled, Maria was stunned for a moment and did not know what he was saying for a moment. "What?"

Emmett raised his eyebrows mockingly and did not say anything else.

Before Maria could speak again, Kathleen said with a dark face, "Emmett, mind your words.”

"I am talking nicely. I think my ex-wife is very beautiful."

Emmett leaned on the sofa and turned to look at Xavier. "Do you think Alyssa is beautiful?"

Xavier swallowed in saliva. Should he say she was pretty or should he say she was not pretty?

Either way, Emmett would not be pleased with him.

Kathleen saw that Emmett's words were getting more and more out of line and she let out a low roar. "Enough!"
