CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Emmett let go of her when he heard her.

He took half a step back and looked at her. “But they deserve to die.”

“Are you trying to kill my grandfather by forcing him back?” Alyssa felt a chill in her heart.

She thought she had some place in Emmett’s heart. However, Emmett’s words denied her.

“No.” Emmett said indifferently, “Of course I won’t do anything to your grandfather. He wasn’t involved

in that case. He was merely bribed by the Lawrence family.”

“Then what do you want to do by forcing him back?”

Alyssa did not understand Emmett, but she vaguely understood one thing.

Emmett’s mother was abused to death by those people, and Theo’s father knew about this. It was very

likely that he was involved in it because of some lucky coincidence.

This world had never been clear about right and wrong. Alyssa did not know how to evaluate Emmett’s

actions.

However, she still felt a little heartache for him.

With such an outstanding mother, if his mother was still around, Emmett would not be like this today.

He must be the man in the financial magazine that all men admired and all women went crazy for.

However, because of his mother, everything he did in the first half of his life was to find the mastermind

behind the kidnapping.

Living in hatred and guilt, no matter how noble his status was, no matter how much power he had, he

was not happy.

“Why did the Lawrence family want him to go abroad? Because he will make some people feel uneasy

in the country.” Emmett paused and continued, “Once he returns to the country, some people might not

be able to sit still.”

Emmett seemed to have thought of something and smiled.

However, his smile did not reach his eyes. There was a bloodthirsty coldness in his eyes.

What made Alyssa’s hair stand on end was not Emmett’s smile. It was his words.

“Are you referring to the Lawrence family ‘as some people’?”

Alyssa felt that she must have misunderstood.

However, Emmett’s wider smile told her that Emmett was serious.

Alyssa suddenly thought of Skylar’s actions back then. If her family could do it then…

Although she was still shocked, she did not question it anymore.

…

The next day.

Alyssa woke up and habitually took out her phone to go online. She found that all the major platforms

and websites had been filled with the news of Old Master Moore’s return.

There was financial news and entertainment news.

For a moment, it was very lively.

Fifteen years ago, Jason’s father, Sawyer Moore, was considered a famous person in Herton City. He

had a lot of connections. Many people who were more powerful and richer than him were willing to

befriend him.

However, just as the Moore Group was growing stronger and stronger, Sawyer suddenly left the

country.

He had been gone for fifteen years, and now that he suddenly came back, it was not surprising that he

would attract the attention of the media.

However, it was a little too exaggerated to make so many media outlets fight each other to report.

Emmett, who was beside her, also woke up.

He slept with Alyssa in his arms last night. When Alyssa woke up just now, she pushed his hand away

and moved to the side of the bed. Now, his arms were empty.

Emmett’s face showed dissatisfaction and pulled Alyssa back into his arms. His chin was pressed

against her hair. His eyes inadvertently swept over her phone and said softly, “I asked someone to do

it. What do you think?”

There was a trace of undetectable pride in his tone, like a child who had done what he thought was

great and was asking for praise.

Alyssa did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Why did you ask the media to report my grandfather’s

return?”

She was not as smart as Emmett. Sometimes she could not keep up with his train of thought.

“Nothing. I just want to inform those who should know.”

Emmett suddenly took her phone away and pulled her hand into the blanket. His voice was hoarse.

“We can do something meaningful.”

Alyssa could hear the abnormality in his voice, but it was too late.

Her hand had been forcefully pressed by Emmett on the private part of his body. The hot temperature

made her hand seem like it was going to melt.

“I want to get out of bed and go to work at the company!” Alyssa’s face immediately turned red.

They turned off the lights at night and did what they needed to do.

The sky was already bright and the room was also bright. Her face was not as thick as Emmett’s.

“En, then we have to hurry up or we’ll be late.”

“No.”

…

Reality proved that a man, no matter how calm he looked normally, would be equally shameless in bed.

When the two of them were done, they were not far from work time.

It was rare for the two of them to get up and wash up together.

Alyssa sat in front of the vanity mirror and put on makeup. Emmett stood at the side and looked at her

with interest.

She could not help but urge him, “You’re done. You should go first.”

Emmett hooked his lips. His deep voice carried a rare sense of seriousness and gentleness. “You are

already pretty enough without makeup.”

He praised her and was very serious.

Alyssa turned her head away and did not look at him. “When you first saw me, you said that I was too

ugly.”

“You are ugly at that time.” Emmett spoke frankly.

Alyssa did not know what to say. She suddenly felt that Emmett’s mouth was already very lucky to have

her marry him.

“However,” Emmett paused then said playfully, “Even if you were so ugly. I still kissed you. If it was

Henry, could he kiss you?”

Alyssa retorted, “Because you did strange things.”

“No matter how strange my behavior is, not all kinds of ugly women can enter my eyes.” Emmett

sounded quite pleased with himself.

Alyssa’s heart jumped when she heard it.

When a cold man speaks of love, he is not inferior at all.

…

When the two of them went downstairs together, Justin was standing in the middle of the living room

with his backpack on his back, looking at them seriously.

He shook his head and said, “The two of you have been getting more and more intimate lately. First,

Alyssa did not get up, and now the two of you are not getting up together?”

Alyssa smiled guiltily and did not say anything.

Emmett coldly glanced at Justin. He quickly turned around and walked out. While he said, “The

weather is getting colder and colder. Everyone does not want to get up. This is very normal.”

Alyssa went to the company and found that Jason and Skylar did not come to work today.

At noon, Alyssa received a call from Aurora.

“Alyssa, your grandfather has returned. Come home for lunch.”

Alyssa directly agreed, “Okay.”

She had no impression of Sawyer. Sawyer was a kind person in her memory. Compared to the other

Moore family members, he treated her pretty well.

But at that time, Sawyer was busy with work and Skylar and her brother were there. He did not pay

much attention to Alyssa.

She put away her phone and walked out of the Moore Group’s main gate. She saw Emmett.

He leaned against the car, tall and slender.

“Why are you here?” Alyssa ran over.

“Someone from the Moore family called you and asked you to go home for lunch?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll go with you.” After Emmett finished speaking, he opened the door and pushed her into the car.
