CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 72

After Henry drove the car out, Alyssa saw that the entertainment reporters had disappeared, so she said, “Please stop by the road. I'll get out of the car. Thank you for what you did today."

Henry quietly parked the car by the road. Alyssa reached out to open the door. She tried to open it but found that the door could not be opened.

She turned to look at Henry. "The door is locked."

Henry also turned to look at her with a strange look. "Alyssa, you'd rather choose me than Emmett's cousin."

"What?????" Was that what she understood?

When he saw that Alyssa did not interrupt him, Henry's tone became more confident. "The two of us are in love. We will definitely be happier together. More importantly, I will not let anyone find out about us."

"Me and you are together?" Alyssa pointed at him and then at herself.

Henry nodded. He gave a smile that he thought was very charming. He reached out to touch Alyssa's face. "It is hard for you to guard that cripple Emmett. I can understand the matter between you and his cousin. I do not blame you."

She worked too hard?

He was really tactful. Didn't he mean that she was guarding Emmett, a cripple who could not be a

man? She could not bear the loneliness and went to look for Emmett's cousin.

A dirty person would always look at others as filthy!

Alyssa turned her head to avoid his outstretched hand. She had a disgusted look on her face. "You mean you want me to have an affair with you behind Emmett's back?"

Henry had seen the headlines on the Internet. He felt that Alyssa could not bear the loneliness and that was why she hooked up with Emmett's cousin.

Alyssa liked him to begin with. If he took the initiative to find Alyssa, she would definitely dump Emmett's cousin and be with him without hesitation.

Henry did not mind Alyssa turning her head away and avoiding him. Instead, the more he spoke, the more excited he became. "Emmett is not good enough for you to begin with. We truly love each other."

"Who is truly in love with you? The one who is truly in love with you is Skylar. If you don’t open the door, I will call the police." Alyssa leaned against the car door tightly and looked at Henry with vigilance.

Why didn't she realize that this man was so extreme in the past?

Alyssa's attitude towards him made him a little anxious. He moved closer to her with excitement. "How can Skylar compare to you?"

Alyssa did not waste time with him and directly took out her phone to call the police.

Henry still wanted face. He backed away a bit and opened the door for her.

Alyssa opened the door and got out. She turned back to look at him. Her tone was distant. “Henry, I used to like you. Maybe you don't even know what I used to like about you. But from now on, I won't like you anymore, much less have an affair with you behind Emmett's back."

The more Henry heard, the worse his expression became. Alyssa turned around and left, no longer looking at him.

She did not walk far when another car stopped beside her.

She thought it was Henry again. She walked very fast with the wind under her feet until a familiar voice came from the car.

"Young Madame."

Alyssa turned her head with surprise. "Frank? You're back?

Frank was Emmett's special assistant. Under normal circumstances, he would follow wherever Emmett went.

After Emmett left the country, she did not see Frank in the villa. She guessed that he went abroad with Emmett.

Frank got out of the car and answered respectfully, "Yes, the young master told me to come and drive Young Madame home."

Alyssa was looking forward to meeting Emmett, but she knew that Emmett would only show her his back.

Even so, Alyssa still got into the car happily.

After getting into the car, the excitement passed. She calmed down and could not sit still anymore.

Why did Emmett come back at this time?

Did he just come back or did he arrive in the morning? Did he see the news about her and “Justin”?

If he saw the news, would he?

No, if he did not see it, even if he did not see it, someone would definitely tell him.

She was sure that the person who came forward to suppress the news was the Lawrence family.

The Lawrence family knew about it, so Emmett must also know about it.

With an uneasy feeling, the car stopped in front of the villa.

"Young Madame, please get out of the car." Frank stepped forward and opened the door respectfully.

Alyssa got out of the car and looked at Emmett’s study room on the second floor. She asked Frank, "Is Emmett in the study room?"

Frank replied, "No, the young master is resting." This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Alyssa nodded. She saw “Justin”, who was leisurely sitting in the hall drinking coffee.

She was angry, but because Frank was still there, she could not get angry. She just stared at him coldly and went upstairs to her room.

Once Alyssa left, Frank walked in front of Emmett and said respectfully, "Young Master, Alyssa went to find Young Madame."

Emmett's tone was indifferent. "Oh? Why did he look for her?"

Frank was smart enough to notice something unusual in his tone.

Frank remembered that he saw Henry and Alyssa in the car. They were very close, and they seemed to be close. He did not dare to say anything.

So he chose a way to say that he thought it was safe. "The two of them stayed in the car for a while and Young Madame got off."

"How long did they stay for a while?" Emmett placed the coffee in his hand on the coffee table and leaned back. His long legs crossed and he gave off a lazy air of nobility.

Frank thought to himself, "Just for a while. About ten minutes."

"Oh? Only ten minutes? It took you more than an hour to pick her up." Emmett's eyes suddenly became very sharp.

Frank did not dare to speak.

Emmett narrowed his eyes and did not ask any more questions. He did not seem to want to hear a satisfactory answer from Frank.

When Alyssa went downstairs, there was no sign of “Justin” in the hall anymore.

She ran to ask the bodyguard guarding the door, "Where did Cousin Master go?"

The guard said seriously, "He went out."

"Oh." Alyssa nodded and went to the kitchen to cook.

"Justin is not home." She felt that the air in the house had become much fresher.

Emmett had just returned and the journey had been tough. She decided to make something light for him.

Before she finished cooking, Frank walked in and said, "Young Madame, I need to go out and do something. I will have to trouble you to bring food to the young master later."

Alyssa was a little puzzled. It was almost night. Where did these people come from to do so many things?

"Okay, I will send it to him when I am done." Alyssa was very happy to do something for Emmett.

Not long after, she prepared the dishes and carried them upstairs. She went straight to Emmett's study

room.

She stood at the door and knocked on it. No one answered, so she pushed the door open and went in.

She was going to put down the food and go out, but she did not expect to run into "Justin" as soon as she turned around.
