CEO's Substitute Bride

Kathleen did not like Alyssa to begin with. When she saw this scene, she immediately walked towards them with large strides.

Alyssa heard the sound of Kathleen's high heels getting closer and closer, so she wanted to retreat. But Emmett bit her lips and did not let go. He even said vaguely, "Don’t you dare push me away.”

Alyssa did not dare to.

Emmett had always been good at threatening her.

What an arrogant and presumptuous man!

Emmett lifted his eyes without batting an eyelid. He saw Kathleen walking in front of him and suddenly pushed Alyssa away.

He had good control in his strength and Alyssa was only pushed back by him until she staggered two steps.

After pushing Alyssa away, Emmett indifferently stretched out his hand to tidy up his clothes. His tone did not show any emotion. "Alyssa, how much longer do you want to keep pestering me?”

When others heard this, they probably felt that Emmett disliked Alyssa very much.

But when Alyssa heard this, she noticed a hint of triumph in his tone.

Pushing her away, Emmett was very pleased, right?

Alyssa could only cooperate with him, "Probably, I am going to keep pestering you for the rest of your life."

Emmett's eyes flashed slightly. Alyssa, who was familiar with him, had already noticed the smile in his eyes.

When Kathleen heard Alyssa's words, anger rose from her heart, "Alyssa, as a woman, can’t you have some face?"

Alyssa turned her head to look at Kathleen and gave her an innocent smile. "Although Emmett and I have already separated, based on respect, I still need to call you big sister. This is a private matter between Emmett and me. Emmett is already 27 years old. Does big sister still need to care about his private matter? Aren’t you too nosey?”

The more Kathleen looked at Alyssa, the more she found it unpleasant, "Do you still think that you are Emmett’s wife now? You are not in charge of the matter between Emmett and me!"

"No. I only wanted to save Emmett because I knew that I am no longer his wife."

Alyssa turned to look at Emmett after she finished speaking. She narrowed her eyes and said with a smile, "I think my ex-husband has already felt how strong my desire to keep him is, right?"

She knew that Emmett liked her eyes the most, especially when she smiled and looked at him intently.

She only stared at Emmett for a few seconds before Emmett pulled down his tie. His eyes turned darker. However, he lowered his eyes to cover his expression. He looked calm and collected. "Even though we have only been husband and wife for a short time, we still have feelings for each other. I won't argue with you about what happened today."

Alyssa could not help but laugh.

Emmett's tone sounded really generous.

Alyssa heard Emmett's words and turned to look at Kathleen. Then she said slowly, "Alright, it is late. I will go back first."

After she finished speaking, she turned to Emmett and said, "Emmett, goodbye."

Emmett looked at her indifferently and did not say anything.

As soon as Alyssa left, Kathleen could not help but want to teach Emmett a lesson. But when she thought that Maria was still here, she could only hold it in and suggested, "Emmett, help me send Maria back."

This was not a suggestion but rather an order.

Kathleen was also a very arrogant and powerful person. Towards this younger brother, she also had some thoughts of controlling him.

"Didn't I say that I would let Frank send her back? My time is very precious. It cannot be wasted in such a foolish way." Emmett glanced at Kathleen, then turned around and walked towards his car.

Kathleen felt that Emmett had swept her face away. Her expression became very ugly.

She could not help but look in the direction where Alyssa disappeared.

She always felt that Emmett's attitude towards Alyssa was very strange but she could not say what it was.

Kathleen tidied up her emotions and turned to Maria. "Maria, I let you see a joke."

Maria smiled and comforted her. "I really do admire your brother. I have never met a man like him. He is arrogant and seems to care about nothing."

"It is because his mother passed away early when he was very young that he became like this. He wasn't like this when he was young." Kathleen also felt a little emotional when she talked about Emmett when he was young.

Maria and Kathleen were the same. They both had a good family background and many outstanding men were chasing after them.

Maria had seen too many pitiful men begging for her. She was a little excited when she suddenly came into contact with a cold man like Emmett.

Any woman who got a good eye would want to conquer a man like Emmett.

She really looked forward to the day when Emmett was conquered by her. She would definitely have a special sense of accomplishment.

On the way back, Alyssa had kept cursing Emmett in her heart as she drove back.

He only knew to how to threaten her every time.

How childish he was!

Alyssa now remembered what Emmett had said before. She also understood the meaning of Emmett's words.

Emmett felt that she had ignored him.

After returning to Holston City, she arranged with Emmett for a temporary separation. So, she would not look him even if she had nothing else to do.

Moreover, they had agreed from the beginning that they would pretend to be separated.

He was clearly the one who agreed to it, but now he was blaming her for ignoring him.
