CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 182



Chapter 182

After Emmett mentioned about her resignation, Alyssa thought about it and decided to resign.

She stayed in the Moore Group to do some ordinary civilian work. Printing documents and organizing materials had nothing to do with her professionalism. If she continued to stay in the Moore Group, it's just a meaningless waste of time.

Alyssa decided not to delay any longer.

Alyssa quickly wrote her resignation letter and handed it to Sawyer as soon as she went to work.

Ever since Sawyer came back, most of the big and small matters in the company were handled by him. The big and small decisions had to be made by Sawyer in order to make the final decision.

This was equivalent to Jason no longer having any real power in the company.

Alyssa pushed open the door and entered Sawyer's office. She put the resignation letter in her hand on his desk. "Grandpa."

Sawyer looked up and looked at the resignation letter. He thought for a moment and said, "What does this mean?"

"As you can see, I want to resign. Please approve it, Director Moore." Alyssa looked at him calmly. Her voice was as calm as her eyes.

"Sit." Sawyer pointed at the chair opposite the desk.

Alyssa sat down.

After Sawyer returned to the country, he had had a lot of contact with Alyssa, but this was the first time he looked at her carefully.

When he left the country, Alyssa was only seven years old. She was a beautiful little girl with excellent results. When she called him grandpa, she was very pleasant.

However, his thoughts were a little conservative. Aurora was after all her stepmother. In his heart, he also doted on Skylar and her brother a little more, so he did not take Alyssa seriously.

In the years after that, when he occasionally heard some bits and pieces related to Alyssa, he felt that his thoughts were more and more correct.

However, when he really returned to see, he realized that everything was different from what he had imagined.

The Skylar that he doted on since she was young had unknowingly gone astray.

Alyssa, whom he had neglected all this time, was the leader of the Moore Group’s crisis. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Alyssa met Sawyer's sizing eyes. She was neither servile nor overbearing. Her calm manner was much better than Skylar’s.

He had spent so much effort back then to let the Lawrence and Moore family marry each other, but Skylar had given this opportunity to Alyssa.

He could tell that Alyssa was a smart and calm child. She was a very capable person. This kind of person had a characteristic - It was not easy to control.

Sawyer looked away and glanced at the resignation letter in front of him. He asked her, "Why do you want to resign?"

"What I am doing now is not in line with my professionalism. Besides, I am staying in the Moore Group now just to raise another idle person."

After Alyssa said these words, she was a little surprised herself. After staying in the Moore Group for a long time, she actually knew how to speak these polite words on the surface.

"What are you saying? You are from the Moore family and work in your own company. How can you be an idle person?" Sawyer's tone and expression were very serious.

Alyssa narrowed her eyes and carefully savored the meaning of his words.

Sawyer's words clearly indicated that he did not want Alyssa to leave.

Alyssa could not understand why Sawyer did not want her to resign.

Her resignation failed.

When she came out of Sawyer's office, Alyssa received a call from Emmett.

She took the phone to the corner to answer it.

"Did he approve?" Emmett's voice came from the phone. It was so low and deep that it made people feel at ease.

Alyssa originally thought that Sawyer would simply approve it, but in the end, she returned in disappointment. Now that she heard Emmett's voice, her tone could not help but reveal a trace of grievance. "No."

Emmett on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment. No one knew what he was thinking.

"I will come to pick you up after work."

"Okay."

Alyssa only came back to her senses after hanging up the phone. She felt that Emmett was not just here to pick her up. He seemed to be here to help her deal with her resignation.

She suddenly felt proud that she had someone to rely on.

Alyssa returned to the checkroom and had nothing to do. She opened WeChat to browse her WeChat Moments.

She had just logged on the Internet when she received a screenshot.

It was Hazel who sent it to her.

It was on Weibo that Emmett used Xavier's big account to reply, "You're blind." The netizens guessed

that Xavier and Dylan had an affair.

Alyssa read it a few times and then went to Weibo to check on Xavier's Weibo. She found out that it was true!

The trending search had changed from "Dylan's mysterious girlfriend" to "Dylan and Xavier.”

The celebrity effect in the entertainment industry was very strong. In just a few hours, the news about Xavier and Dylan had been posted on several trending searches.

When she returned to WeChat, she received a message from Dylan. "I knew Xavier would not change even if he died!"

"Xavier used to like men too?" Alyssa was shocked.

She thought about how Emmett squeezed Xavier so much, and how Xavier was also so hardworking and resentful. She suddenly started to worry.

Could it be that Xavier had some unspeakable thoughts about Emmett?

Hazel was busy scolding Xavier. She sent messages one after another and ignored Alyssa's question.

It was precisely because of this that Alyssa was in a state of confusion and anxiety all afternoon.

Until she was about to get off work, she received a call from Emmett.

"I'm downstairs of the Moore Group."

When it was time to get off work, Alyssa quickly carried her bag downstairs.

Emmett's car was parked in the parking lot opposite the Moore Group. The window was lowered to reveal a cold profile.

Alyssa ran over, opened the door, and sat in the car.

Emmett turned to look at her. His face did not show any expression. He reached out to help Alyssa with her bangs that were blown away by the wind.

Alyssa held it in for an entire afternoon and finally saw Emmett. She did not know what to say.

She opened her mouth hesitantly. "What do you think of Xavier?"

"Xavier?" Emmett seemed to think for a moment before he said, "He has a bad temper, but he is good at handling things."

He called him so intimately and praised him!

Alyssa's heart tightened. "Are those rumors about his girlfriend real or fake?"

"Fake." Emmett's expression changed when he saw Alyssa asking about Xavier.

Was the rumor fake? Then he must be covering up the fact that he liked men.

Alyssa's expression changed, "Then he..."

"Alyssa." Emmett interrupted Alyssa in a deep voice.

Alyssa heard him and stopped talking. She looked up at Emmett.

He narrowed his eyes slightly. His eyes were heavy. "Ever since you got on the car, you've been telling me about other men."

"I'm just..."

Emmett said expressionlessly, "I'll give you three seconds to please me."

Three seconds?
