CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 196

The next day, Alyssa went out to Golden Fountain Club at six o'clock.

Because Emmett said they would have dinner at Golden Fountain at seven, she had nothing to do at home anyway, so she might as well go over early.

When she arrived at Golden Fountain, it was six forty.

As soon as she arrived at the private room, Dylan arrived at the back.

Dylan entered the private room and found that Emmett was not there. He asked her, "Emmett is not here yet?"

Alyssa looked at the time and found that it was almost seven o'clock. She sighed and said, "Ever since he returned to the Lawrence Group, he has been so busy that he has not seen anyone all day long."

Alyssa's tone could not hide her disappointment.

Dylan quietly changed the topic. "Justin wanted to come with us today. But later, a classmate asked him to play ball, so he ran away with his classmate."

Alyssa had not seen Justin for a while. She still missed him a little, so she started to chat with Dylan about Justin.

The two of them chatted while waiting for Emmett.

However, Emmett did not appear for a long time.

It was soon seven o'clock.

Emmett always kept his word. He was a punctual person. But he had not come yet. Could something have happened to him?

Alyssa called Emmett but was hung up.

She frowned as she looked at the phone that had been hung up. Her expression was a little ugly.

Dylan saw the situation and asked her, "What's wrong?"

"No." Alyssa pursed her lips and forced a smile. "Emmett is not here yet. I'm afraid he is delayed because of the company's matters. Why don't we order something first?"

Dylan was the same as her. He came without dinner. If Emmett was caught by something, he would not be able to come until very late. Could it be that he wanted Dylan to starve with her?

Dylan did not mind at all. He said, "Yes, let's wait for a while."

Alyssa decided not to wait until after eight o'clock. It was rare for her to force Dylan to order dishes.

Hence, the dinner that was originally for three people became for Dylan and Alyssa only.

After the two of them finished their meal, they served a pot of tea. Only then did Emmett arrive late.

When Alyssa saw Emmett come in, she lowered her head to look at the tea in the cup.

When she saw Emmett now, she became angry.

If he did not have time, he should not choose today. If he was busy, could he not make a phone call?

Dylan poured Emmett a cup of tea and handed it to him. He asked gently, "Are you really this busy?"

Emmett sat beside Alyssa. He habitually placed one hand on the back of the chair behind Alyssa. His possessiveness was very obvious.

Dylan's eyes stopped on Emmett's arm for a few seconds before he moved his eyes away. It was as if he hadn’t seen Emmett’s movements.

"It's okay." Emmett picked up the teacup and drank it clean. He looked at Alyssa and asked, "Have you guys eaten?"

Dylan said, "Yes, you never came. We just ordered some dishes."

Emmett did not say anything. He only turned his head to look at Alyssa.

Alyssa pretended not to feel him looking at her and only focused on drinking tea.

Was she angry?

"Yes, I could have rushed over earlier but I encountered a small car accident on the way and my phone broke." Emmett looked at Dylan.

Alyssa pretended to ignore him, but when he spoke, she heard him clearly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Alyssa suddenly turned her head and asked, "Are you okay?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"I'm fine." Emmett looked down at her and said with a smile, "It was someone else who got into a car accident and caused a traffic jam. That's why I came late."

Both of them had already eaten, so Emmett only ordered his own.

He ate very quickly, but the way he ate did not look rude. Instead, it was pleasing to the eye.

Maybe it was because his face was too pretty.

After the meal, Alyssa and Emmett went home together.

This was the first time Alyssa went home with Emmett in a week.

The car was quiet. Alyssa suddenly said, "It's been a long time since the two of us went home together."

"Who was the one who didn't want to go to work with me before?" Emmett said coldly and started to settle old scores with Alyssa.

Alyssa pursed her lips. "It's not the same."

The two of them kept arguing about this topic.

In the end, the argument ended after Emmett threw her onto the bed.

Emmett was indeed too tired during this period of time. Because he had sex with Alyssa several times at night, the next morning when Alyssa woke up, she saw Emmett's handsome sleeping face beside her.

She reached out her hand and gently touched his face, drawing the outline of his face.

Emmett narrowed his eyes and grabbed her hand. He put it close to his lips and took a light bite. "Don't move."

Alyssa smiled and used her other hand to touch his face.

One touched his face and the other blocked. The two of them started to having fun again on the bed.

At this moment, Alyssa's phone suddenly rang, pulling both of their thoughts back.

Alyssa took her phone from the bedside table and muttered, "Who is calling me so early in the morning?"

She took it over and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

She muttered to herself. "Who is this?"

Emmett poked his head out from behind her and said, "Xavier."

"Xavier called me?" Alyssa was surprised.

"He should be looking for me." Emmett reached out to take Alyssa's phone as he spoke.

His phone was broken yesterday. After he entered the Lawrence Group, he did not bring any other work phones. Xavier could not find him for a while, so he called Alyssa.

With this thought, it made sense.

"What is it?" Emmett answered the phone with a cold voice.

Alyssa curiously went over to listen. She just happened to hear Xavier's crazy tone. "What is going on? Someone took another picture of Dylan and Alyssa eating together. They are on Weibo again!"

Xavier's tone was very irritable, as if he could run over from the other end of the phone in the next second.

When Alyssa heard this, she was stunned for a while before she realized what was going on and asked, "Dylan and I went on Weibo's trending search again?"

Emmett hung up the phone with a sullen face and directly opened Weibo.

Sure enough, there was the topic of Dylan and Alyssa's trending search on the screen.

##Dylan's mysterious girlfriend##

Alyssa's mouth twitched. "I think if I go on Weibo with Dylan a few more times with trending search, I

might become famous too."

Emmett glanced at her coldly. "How many more times do you want to go on Weibo trending search?"

The picture in the trending search was clearly taken when she was having dinner with Dylan in Golden Fountain last night.

Dylan’s picture was taken very clearly. While, Alyssa was still in a very blurry state.

Alyssa pursed her lips. "It's not like I want to post the trending search on Weibo. If it was not because you did not come yesterday, other people would have filmed the three of us eating together!"
