CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 254

Alyssa stopped speaking and looked at Emmett.

Emmett's expression was terrifyingly gloomy, like an angry lion that could rush up and bite her at any time.

When Alyssa said these words, there was anger mixed with a trace of probing.

She could not convince herself that Emmett would suddenly become so unreasonable.

After a while, Emmett's expression eased a little. Then he slowly said, "Since you also know that you can’t be my rival, you should do what I tell you to do. Don’t make trouble.”

His tone was extremely cold. His words were clear, but there was also coldness in them.

Alyssa's pupils shrank. Before she could say anything, Emmett spoke again.

"As for the child, you'd better not have any bad ideas about it." Emmett pulled the corner of his mouth and revealed a gloomy smile. He then turned around and left.

Alyssa sat on the sofa and watched Emmett leave.

She stared at the closed door for half a second before she leaned back like she was discouraged and fell on the sofa.

This day had been too long.

Alyssa felt uncomfortable lying on the sofa, so she simply laid flat on the sofa and thought about what had happened today in her heart.

In the morning, when she was half asleep and half awake, a maid came to call her, saying that her grandfather wanted her to go over.

Then she went to find Winston, but he was not in the room. She heard the noise and went to the stairs. Winston fell down from the stairs.

Then, she sent him to the hospital. Winston was in the operating room. George asked the maid about the incident.

The maid pointed out that she had heard her voice before she went out and found Winston had fallen down. At this moment, Emmett questioned George. Eliza jumped out and said that Alyssa was the culprit.

And the reason Eliza gave was ridiculous. How could she harm Winston just because of Amelia?

A normal person would know that this reason was unreasonable.

However, Emmett believed Eliza's words. Ever since he came back from the night, every word he said had doubts about her.

Before anyone else could say anything, Emmett directly asked the police to investigate this matter. He even said that he suspected her.

This point was obviously a little suspicious.

Emmett seemed to have deliberately placed this matter on her.

Why did Emmett do this?

With Emmett's personality, his normal reaction at this time was not to draw this matter onto her, but to investigate the truth.

Unless...

Unless Emmett knew the truth and knew who did this!

In this way, he had other motives for bringing this matter to Alyssa.

Alyssa felt that she had thought it through, but when she turned it back, she felt that it did not seem like it.

She thought about it and fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, she found that she was in bed.

Alyssa sat up from the bed and touched the seat beside her blankly. She did not find Emmett.

She remembered that she had fallen asleep on the sofa last night.

Emmett had come back?

Alyssa put on her clothes and got out of bed to open the door. There were still bodyguards guarding the door.

Frank was not around. The bodyguard looked familiar. She had seen him in Emmett's villa before.

She felt a little more at ease. She asked them about it. "Did Emmett come back last night?"

The bodyguard answered truthfully, "The young master came back in the middle of the night. He left before dawn."

"Did he say anything?" Alyssa frowned and asked hurriedly.

The bodyguard shook his head.

Alyssa pursed her lips and asked again, "Then do you know how Grandpa is?"

The bodyguard still shook his head.

Alyssa closed the door and went back to her room.

After thinking for a while, she decided to call Emmett with her phone.

In the end, she did not find her phone.

Emmett came back in the middle of the night and took her phone?

Alyssa could only go to the door to look for a bodyguard. “Did you bring your phone? Can I use it?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

The bodyguard did not directly give the phone to Alyssa but instead asked, "Young Madame wants to call Young Master?"

Alyssa was puzzled but still nodded and said, “Yes."

The bodyguard called Emmett and then passed the phone to Alyssa, "Young Madame."

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.

Emmett's voice was a little hoarse.

"What is it?"

Emmett's tone was very cold. Alyssa's voice was also very cold. "You came back last night?"

Emmett's tone seemed to be a little impatient. "If you have something to say, say it."

"How is Grandpa?"

"He hasn't woken up yet."

"Where's my phone?"

"I don't know."

Alyssa had been holding back her anger from yesterday until today. At this time, she could not help but curse, "Bullshit. You came back last night and took my phone, right?"

Without waiting for Emmett to speak, Alyssa continued, "Are you afraid that I would see something with my phone? Or are you worried that I will call someone?"

"I’ll hang up.”

With that, Emmett hung up the phone.

Alyssa held back the urge to threw away the phone and returned it to her bodyguard. "Thank you."

Then she turned around and entered the room.

She entered the room and kicked the door twice.

Emmett, you bastard!

Not long after, there was another knock on the door.

"Young Madame, it's time to eat."

The voice sounded familiar.

"I don't want to eat!" She was already full of anger and had no mood to eat.

"Even if you don't want to eat, you still have to think about the child in your stomach."

Alyssa frowned. Which servant of the Lawrence family would speak like this?

After a few seconds, Alyssa's eyes lit up. She ran over and opened the door, "Hazel!"

The person who came was Hazel.

Hazel saw her and said unhappily, "You still don't want to eat, let's see what you can do!"

"Let's go in first."

The one who spoke was Xavier who stood behind Hazel.

Alyssa also knew that the door was not the place to talk. After she opened the door and let the two in, she closed the door.

Alyssa asked as she ate, "Why are you guys here?"

Hazel's expression turned serious. She took out a newspaper and handed it to Alyssa. She fiddled with the phone for a while and then passed the phone to Alyssa.

Alyssa first opened the newspaper.

There was a long news report about Winston, almost covering the entire page.

The reporter wrote a lot of speculations and what seemed to be the truth, and the last sentence pointed the suspect to Alyssa.

Hazel was a little worried and asked her, "Alyssa, didn't you see the news?"

Alyssa threw the newspaper to the side and picked up Hazel's phone, "My phone is missing."

The matter of Winston rolling down the stairs did not cause such a big commotion.

The reason why it was so sensational was that the person who pushed Winston down might be his granddaughter-in-law.

This kind of feud between wealthy families made most people curious.

This matter was very popular and took up quite a few headlines.

After being suspected by Emmett, Alyssa no longer felt anything when she saw these things. She only raised her head and asked Hazel, "Do you believe that I pushed Winston?"
